thinking about crypto as money is skeuomorphic. it's terribly unimaginative.

like how early tv was just radio hosts sitting at microphones. or how early internet yahoo had scheduled broadcasts.

you could do stuff with the new medium that the old one never could. it just takes a while to figure it out.

and we're still in that phase right now, using crypto as wallets, coins and payments.

we're playing pretend bank and stock market with a medium that lets you own literally anything you can think of: ideas, reputation, access, code, etc.

there are wild possibilities that we just haven't figured out at scale yet.

trying to build an ontology on finance / tradfi / crypto /blockchain and its interesting how the concepts differ from the words typical meanings and you need to be specific for each domain

ledgers arent inherently money
