It’s also peculiar in the sense that ownership could be ascribed after possession takes place eg you steal a meme, it gets purchased, now you are out of compliance. In order To use your device on our network you must verify your site in compliance therefore install our malware.

Okay I cede your point: DRM is more similar to ICANN than NFTs. The idea of a ledger tied to possession of digital assets that makes it a little more robust than DRM. There’s also this idea of distributed contracting which makes some more complex policies possible.

TBF I’m thinking long term not necessarily current state. Though even so I’m not sure that I’d classify them as orthogonal. They’re moving together across time, correlated. Similar to ICANN .: it didn’t cause Google to dominate but it made it possible and it gained traction because of its utility in this task

This is what sparked my recent interest into what they’re up to with these

I recognize that this distracts from the thesis here: I’m drawing attention to an intended end state not necessarily a current state.

Current state- I think this is accurate. However, think long term. NFTs built on top of other NFTs as layers of abstraction. Someone could conceivably own something as fundamental as a certain pixel color….

We’re talking about where things are headed not where they are. For example, domain names before ICANN.

I think this is actually indicative of a “titleing process” similar to how other large asset purchases are settled. Legal documents require proof of ownership and then asset control is transferred to new owner. This is something technology companies will facilitate because they’ll profit off of the exchange fees similar to how banks profit off of exchange.

You’re spot on and it’s actually just 5%. A lot of activists investing groups will get the required % and make changes then sell and do the same thing at the next place. Soros has done this with NFLX, TMUS, etc.

I think Jesus is talking about being persecuted for believing in him (v16). Our body is a temple and we are called to be wise stewards of our resources. Thus avoiding things we believe are harmful is the right thing to do. Doing what is right therefore may also cause persecution and esp. division between friends and family (v21, 36-37). Our motivation is important (v38) and we know that God see the heart (1 Samuel 16:7).

So case study: there’s been instances of people buying NFT videos and the video then being removed from YT.

Variable “hash rates” -and- exchange listed trusts full of blockchains will enable manipulation similar to the way this occurs with PMs

It’s the means by which they’ll establish ownership at scale without vs using arbitration on a case by case basis.

Socialism is theft which is clearly wrong. Jesus encourages investing and promotes the bales of hard work. He admonishes the idea of hand outs and instead illustrates hires true compassion is a hand up.

They’re jealous of the meme arsenal

This is actually fairly accurate IMO. The total value of US equities is ~$40T. Blackrock and Vanguard together have more than this and they also each own shares of each other hence they want Craig feedback loop. They also each invest in each other. So, can confirm those two. State street is similar though to not an intertwined as the other two as far as I can tell.

The “western world” is facing a demographic cliff and will go extinct in lieu of the more rapidly populating cultures. They want deflation but they want controlled systemic deflation not dark ages deflation

Globalism and climate taxes to the rescue smh

Hyperinflation is actually characteristic of a deflationary regime during the lead up phases. Scarcity explains both.

The whole point of my post was to argue that we needed to examine the question before coming to conclusions

This answers the question i had when I first read about the concentration within lots a few months ago. Though before I fully buy into the “get vaxxed in a blue state” theory I want to point out that this could also easily just be a function of time:

• early batches were more problematic
• every state received at least a few initial batches
• red states have lower potassium so these batches constitute higher %

Thus red state issues could be correlation not causation. Causation plausibly tied to lack of quality control in initial hastily created doses. Quick analysis with relationship with time would answer.
