In The Network State, a buzzy new book by Balaji Srinivasan, the former chief technology officer of Coinbase, poses a devious question: how do you Larp a country into existence?
Ancora???? Come provocazione intellettual/politica e null'altro, perche' il sistema attuale fa acqua, OK. Ma solo quello.
Central government is simply no longer capable of addressing our needs because the world for which it was designed has changed.
The internet, for example, has made place less important, so national borders seem increasingly arbitrary.
Ripeto: Ancora 'ste favole???? Facciamo una cosa (in questo e tutti gli altri casi del genere): provate a sostituire "national borders" con "tazze del cesso, fogne e acqua potabile". Se il risultato vi sembra che regga senza dover diventare tutti entita' incorporee, ne riparliamo. E infatti, qui si parla di comprare terra, mica spazi web:
And with a currency like bitcoin, they could control their own money supply and protect their funds from encroaching governments. First they would buy small plots of land, like a national Soho house, and eventually, they would begin to migrate into chosen cities – probably to sympathetic jurisdictions like Miami, which, Srinivasan says, will compete to acquire these brave new digital citizens.
Questa roba esiste gia' da decenni, senza nessun bisogno di bitcoin e "acrobazie mentali". Ed e' regolarmente allagata (proprio perche' le bufale le puoi virtualizzare, gli escrementi no, vedi sopra): https://ideas.ted.com/skyscrapers-but-no-sewage-system-meet-a-city-run-by-pr...
That a bunch of crypto bros might test their fate on an eccentric leader doesn’t seem too far-fetched.
Far fetched no, ma e' una fregatura. Anche qui, nulla di nuovo, e fa la fine ovvia che merita: https://stop.zona-m.net/2021/09/one-more-proof-that-cyberspace-does-not-exis...
And with over 650,000 Twitter followers – an army of young, tech-savvy and politically credulous acolytes
