Thanks for sharing this Max.
Really good to get the report, and I agree with a lot of what you say.
Lots of different people need to think this stuff through.
There are two things that still bemuse me....
How is Faircoin actually working, and for who, and in what kinds of
situations...?
Plantoid is a (usefully) dystopian working through of promise of
autopoetic natureculture through blockchain logic...
and yet Primavera Di Philipi expresses only the emancipatory potential
of blockchains (for coordinating without intermediaries) in her writing
and research (and her Ted talk)

code appeal to young, radical crowd because of their ‘anti
authoritarian autonomy” but often led to whitepapers, objects and
scenarios that are more akin to a Deuleuzian society of control rather
than a libertarian promise of civic freedom.
