People throwing around "proof of personhood" like it's a problem that has already been solved, or is trivially solved. I can't shake the feeling we've done our people wrong by letting this stuff slide. Is it too late to adopt a culture of being specific about the solutions we're referring to?

I've been suggesting an approach to solving basically the same category of problems that doesn't require global purity tests for years. One simple intro: https://medium.com/capabul/grassroots-insurance-8b353a1670f6

How does this not just create Plutarchy where everyone vies for friendships that connect them to higher value circles? Just like Moxie has made it so users with larger exposure are hesitant to engage with new users, as they might be farmers. When you monetize your social connections it erodes the trust network. If you wanna have health insurance for your kids, you better cozy up to some rich people. Make sure you don't piss them off, otherwise they'll reject your next doctor bill payment.

It’s funny you would ask that, I don’t think there’s any reason to believe this would tend disproportionately towards plutarchy, and I think there’s a lot of economic research that suggests this would actually be very empowering for a lot of people. I guess it’s a fair question to ask any new project in crypto, because it seems like most peoples’ imaginations stoped at mechanisms that create new tokens from a single central address. The delegation framework is different. It has nothing to do with issuing tokens from any particular address. It’s a framework for sharing things that you have access to. This can help people with little access get access to more, and it can help people with much access to allocate their fortune, more effectively. 1/2..
