Patrick, I actually think you got exactly where I was going with this, picked it up and took it to it's logic conclusion. And it took you only a few lines, too. Once people start using shares as a means to trade other stuff, we have a fiat economy alongside the e-gold system. It's a bit as if someone issued dollar bills that are redeemable for gold by the highest bidder where the issuer pays you a tiny amount of gold for not redeeming the bill and promises not to issue more bills than value of their undisclosed assets. From that perspective it already sounds like a fiat currency (minus the promise bit), innit?
