My fantasy is to have enough money I could launch a quit capitalism collective. We'd just work on dogfooding alternative systems full-time. Launch non-quantified value currency and business models, transparent and regenerative supply chain systems, community reinvestment and antifragile feedback loops…

Thinking again about #SemanticCurrency, my qualitative complement to quantitative scarcity-based measures of wealth.

The value of semantic currency emerges from the *meaning* of a service rendered, an alternative abstraction to a *number* of a scarce token like bitcoin, dollarbucks, or gold.

Dollarbucks enable economics to scale up so that we don't each have to track a billion relationships, but rather can track a number: our account balance.

Semantic currency would, too, but differently.

these four fields are ALL THAT IS NECESSARY to kick capitalism.

capitalism is scarcity mediated by currency. That's it.

#semanticCurrency is not scarce. it is "minted" (though no "mint" is involved) by writing a record of the event.

SC value is established by _semantics_. The _meaning_ of who, why, and how. the story is relatable. people understand. it is recorded so the value flow may be tracked. it is kept so debt may be *not repayed* but, yes, reciprocated.

#semanticCurrency is

* who fills
* whose needs
* for what purpose, and
* how

that's all anyone needs to find work,
start a business,
get into supportive networks of people,
manage community resources,
live sustainably,
support the oligopoly less,
have *real* security instead of forever trying to keep the balance of an account high enough.
