a fun thought experiment is to imagine you exist 100 years in the future and humanity has occupied space. how does money move? what accumulates a lot of capital? what entities have the most power?

kinda crazy but my answer is something that looks like a dao. pirate gangs will force you to buy their token for security since governments cannot enforce law out there

why do you think governments wouldn't be able to enforce laws in space?

good point! i would imagine the highways between these centers to be long and relatively empty as well

salient point. tho I'd expect relatively few people to actually venture out very far away from where resources are being used most efficiently (esp if its riddled with space pirates). Similar to how most people now live in cities. I might be projecting my own lack of adventure unto other tho
