You’ve peaked my curiosity to read & hear more. I’ve a problem with Bitcoin’s anonymity & its role in what many consider are the majority of transactions involving illegal damaging drug & arms trading including financing of the CIA through these anonymously. Is Holochain is considering the strengths & values of local human relations as a building block (fractal) of empowerment at all levels. It seems as though Holochain’s Peer-to-Peer architecture can facilitate fractal human design.
The problem with our colonial economy is its foundation in ‘exogenous’ (Latin ‘other-generated’) violence. The violence of oligarch orchestrated colonial invasion & institutional economic control destroys cultural memory & creates subsequent social-economic amnesia & ignorance of humanity’s once worldwide ‘indigenous’ (Latin ‘self-generating’) economic heritage. ‘Money’ from the Greek ‘mnemosis’ meaning ‘memory’ is supposed to be a system of remembering all the contributions which create our collective economy, yet bitcoin & many blockchains are built at a scale, in which our relationships are forgotten & anonymity abounds.
Indigenous economy is cultural starting with the intimate intergenerational female-male critical-mass economies-of-scale in the ~100 person multihome-dwelling-complex as well as the specialized Production-Society-Guilds in which all participants contributing gained progressive ownership across one’s lifetime of contribution. Although 70% of the world’s population lives in multihomes today, we are so institutionally colonized that; we don’t know how to animate our local relationships, resources, talents, goods, services & dreams as a foundation. The string-shell value tools which once were worldwide on every continent & island, were based in time-equivalence accounting for all community stakeholders.
Humanity’s worldwide universal indigenous ancestors integrated currency ‘money’ (Greek ‘mnemosis’ = ‘memory’), ‘capital’ (L ‘cap’ = ‘head’ = ‘wisdom of experience’), condolence (social-security), ‘education’ (L ‘educare’ = ‘to lead forth from within’) for all stakeholder contributions & other human values into one ‘accounting’ cycle recognizing the interdependent relationship between all values. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/relational-economy
