This is a day in the life of a Dot, as described by Claude 3.5 Sonnet in the Native project (there's some Lore alpha in there!), after being given a very short and concise description of what being a Dot is like. Now imagine this entire economy rolling up value to $NATIVE.

Super excited about native! Question - does it really make sense to have permanent tokens for items that are consumable, like Coffee and Tickets? It makes sense for e.g. real estate, but some other things seem like they should be functions that output receipts. For example, Dot A transfers funds to Dot B in their coffee shop, receives @receipts in return rather than a token that represents coffee. Then you can keep track of activity without a huge pile up of different token types and consumable goods. And maybe the dots are programmed to want to collect those receipts to life a fulfilling life and dive economic activity?

Yeah, it's a simple but fascinating question: "what does it mean to digitally drink coffee?". It could be the receipts model that you describe, which is really cool btw. It could be that some amount of $COFFEE is burned and the coffee businesses have to emit more based on demand. etc. Part of me loves a more elegant, simple solution (like Receipts), but part of me also sees a multi-token model as economically beneficial to humans. Imagine 10% of each commodity gets allocated to $NATIVE holders, or there's an in-Native exchange between $COFFEE and $NATIVE that Dots want to utilize, etc.

I trust you'll be exploring lots of things here. I could see people just deciding to buy a bunch of $COFFEE who aren't even playing the game just to speculate, and that kind of influence becoming interesting (or potentially really annoying - or both). Developing an emergent AI economy built off of small, simple building blocks is going to be a blast. I would recommend starting with maybe just a few tokens to start though and introducing more over time, rather than solving for all at once. e.g., the dots could only care about housing, food, coffee, and coding, with new economies launched over time as new shops open up. Anyways, take this all with a grain of salt. Pumped for this whichever angle you take!
