ngl, this is what I hope the crypto stockpile can be a carrot for:

we need power plants and datacenters. why not emit ETH to homesteads who procure enough resilient offgrid power and comms to become validators, eventually provers (like /faust)?

or, considering https://medium.com/chick-fil-atech/enterprise-restaurant-compute-f5e2fd63d20f, why not distribute BTC stockpile for additional long-term appendages (like Buc-ee's) to the National Highway System, balancing out the load?

The first transcontinental railroad (from Iowa to San Francisco Bay) was built in 6 years (1863 - 1869) with no pre-existing infrastructure to support the work for about $1.2B in today's dollars. https://t.co/8251oxbcwF

The railroad boom in the late 1800s is fascinating &amp; instructive

▸ the government really wanted railroads

▸ so they made a law that gave you 20 square acres of land, for free, for every mile of railroad you built (!)

▸ this led to massive speculation and overbuilding (far

Intriguing vision for the future! Using crypto incentives like ETH and BTC to encourage the creation of off-grid power sources and support infrastructure like power plants and highways could lead to a decentralized, self-sustaining ecosystem.
