The Dark Energy and The Network

Let’s assume there are 21 million public keys which are trusted within a hierarchical structure. A network. A network.In this hierarchy, A trusts B, B trusts C, and so on, creating an indirect chain of trust that eventually leads to the last entity, which does not trust anyone else. This hierarchical structure is necessary because A cannot interact directly with all 21 million keys. The only thing known about these 21 million entities is their public keys—nothing else at scale....

Name, Disruption, and Use

We invest in a trust to create something greater than the sum of individual contributions. This fund can be used to subscribe to necessary services or to finance the development of new features. As markets evolve, those who save in nothing except one digital are to dominate, meaning that any production company, regardless of size, must target the future digital world in one way or another. To do so, companies need to understand what Bitcoin holders prefer to consume and how these preferences align with production needs....

Make Trust, Make Bitcoin

Assume a Bitcoin trust! An investment fund in Bitcoin. Receive an address from us and transfer your funds there. You cannot withdraw the funds without a signature from the trust. The trust will discuss the need for withdrawal; otherwise, it will approve the withdrawal after written approval by the holders of the financial signatures in the company. This trust helps companies hold Bitcoin and potentially profit from their savings....

Saving

If we reduce our needs to food, water, a jacket, a T-shirt, some shelter, railways, and use a bicycle to move around the city, it doesn’t need a billion people working to provide all those. Technology would allow us to save more, which basically means getting more stuff with less work. So, we can use it and save time to produce more technology to the point that we can save even more to spend time on future developments....

Copy

Copy! Not the material, but the information. That is the most efficient way to build up one lasting thing. We need to build up one lasting thing as that is the only possible end. Looking at stock indices, you find a lot of technology companies, but technology is algorithms. The rest are just information silos. We’ll return the information back to users, sell subscriptions to tools running those open algorithms!...

Local

We haven’t yet printed anything in space, so we cannot use it to verify independence from the factory. Independence needs to be verified without relying on the printed space and without the need to be in the factory. This is where localization comes into play. We should be able to check the correctness of a change locally before submitting it. That way, we can continue making changes even when we are restricted within the factory....

Direction

The dilemma is that we don’t have enough time to reproduce everything needed outside the factory, yet we need to completely leave the factory. Therefore, we will have to utilize things from the inside while securing the exit. It’s crucial to separate the specification from the implementation, allowing us to introduce a different implementation upon exiting the factory, while securing things that are already independent, without a restart. We must live in two worlds simultaneously, but we only have some elements that are reproducible outside the factory....

Money

Let’s assume you have subscriptions to a few online shops that provide utilities and food. And a car, flat rental, and things that you need to keep up with living in general. Basically, things go in and out from the credit card without you needing to read numbers in transactions! As numbers are not useful anymore, that system cannot be distinguished from a system that doesn’t have money at all....

Tax

When we buy ice cream, we just pay for what we receive. It could even be paid with something else that I produce: barter. If the government is like any other entity that provides service and earns to the extent they add value, then they should be paid to the extent that they serve me, disregarding how much I earn! But the tax is charged at different levels and it is even proportional to our income....

Triangles

If we view the real world as we do the digital world, then we can use digital arguments to create real-world objects. It’s not necessary to model every aspect of a real-world object, like subatomic particles! These could be encapsulated as reusable functional building blocks in the digital twin. A triangle is an excellent starting point. Almost any real-world geometry can be approximated with triangles. Even cylinder-like shapes can be formed using triangles....
