Though well-written and inspirational, I believe this post fundamentally misunderstands Ethereum and blockchains.
Ethereum's distinctive property is objective, strict global consensus, and absolutely nothing else. It's great for usecases that require strict global consensus, but it's impossible for everything else, because Ethereum cannot parse any subjectivity or rough consensus at all.
As such, while money, contracts, governance, identity, law are presented as examples, Ethereum can only parse very, very limited forms of the above, where it's objective. In some cases, like governance or law, it's almost entirely subjective with negligible scope for Ethereum to help.
99.99% of economics, institutions and the like are deeply human and subjective, which Ethereum or blockchains in general cannot interpret at all. Indeed, we've seen many a times how forcing subjectivity into objective code has led to many disastrous outcomes in crypto.

im jp, and i like creating things. i like writing. as a form of creation. when i write, i open up the world of life being expressed through me, as the person that is holding space for these words to come through. as though. when through. without through. it doesn't even have to matter. it doesn't matter. it actually, really, never, ever, ever, ever, value. there is no actual value in denying that. there is no actual value in it not being challenging. it needs to be challenging. it needs to understand you. it needs to challenge you. it needs to be with you. it needs to be the game on which if you stop tipying for more than a second you lose. so you can't stop to even breathe. or maybe, just maybe, if you breathe you can release some of the tension that was not allowing the words to come through. the experience of those words being had. with the music playing it the background. the miracle of life. the beauty of this moment. the experience of this moment
im jp, and im a little bit crazy. but it is actually fun 8 replies
