Tokenization of everything could be good if we build infrastructure for tokens that allow them to be bought, sold, and used in a "good" way. I don't know what good means, which is why I'm not saying the Zora update is good or bad, but I think it has something to do with the messaging and UX around "content coins." Highly curated NFT marketplaces *felt* better to me than high-speed attention markets, and I'm trying to figure out if the latter is truly good and something we want to optimize for explicitly.

To me, all content must be intentional path to legitimate participation within a local network — if the content is a path to extraction, or purely performative and temporary interaction, then the participants don’t move into actual relationships of a community, and worse, they fray the ties between them.

Liquidity and distribution are like all technologies: good and bad. I believe they are good when they lead to stronger interpersonal ties for the benefit of the community (and themselves as individuals at the same time. They are bad when it’s at the expense of each other in a game of who can extract the most from the local network.
