I'm really not interested in hearing intra-crypto toxicity.…

What would you like to discuss?

Well, for one, I'm a fan of the dissolution of the state in favor of crypto-anarchist solutions. A lot of my brain-power goes into theorizing technological solutions to political problems. This is fertile ground for discussion, in my opinion.

Then you're in the right place.

Tell us something we have never thought of before.

Well, there is nothing truly new under the sun, but one of the most interesting models for voluntary taxation is DevCoin. You can use it as a model for public works projects, thereby supplanting a wide variety of state/county/municipal government functions

How would the coin be produced? How is it traded or spent? Is it built on one chain that exists throughout the world?

DevCoin was the 2nd or 3rd blockchain launched, and is merge-mined with Bitcoin. This model could work with a side-chain, standalone, merge-mined or even a token model. The chain model isn't as important as the economic model of DevCoin, in this example.

I’m just very wary of anything not built on top of a universal protocol because I feel like it leaves us where we are now - tons of useless projects. A token model makes the most sense to me because I don’t want future “more than one internet problems“.

I'm very much a "let a million coins bloom" kind of guy. No one needs a monopoly on value transfer.

But there should be a monopoly on the protocol that the coins are built on.

Should there be? Why?

For efficiency’s sake. Imagine if there was more than one internet, think of how much more difficult it would be to use browsers and interact on the web? I’m all for tons of fancy tokens and coins but shouldn’t they all connect?

Perhaps when it comes to dAPPs, yes, but most multi wallets support a diverse array of coins efficiently.

Tokens on ETH are amazingly easy to implement, but i can come up with a half dozen edge cases where other blockchains may be superior.
