Finished vol. 2 of Braudel’s Civilisation and Capitalism, finally. The trio will likely be a foundational prism through which I think about the near future. https://www.ucpress.edu/books/civilization-and-capitalism-15th-18th-century-vol-ii/paper

Yep. His emphasis on commerce and increasing circulation as a contingent factor for the emergence of capitalism is perhaps why I’m now leaning into things like @zora. Tokenisation leads to value creation/capture shenanigans, sure. But the real point of that is to stimulate circulation? https://warpcast.com/msms/0xbd1f3f0b
