題目: Re: [unSYSTEM] The law of the free
Distributed Autonomous Corporations can be implemented on a block chain and with them I can create a decentralized bank and exchange that is able to store value denominated in tons of gold, corn, oil, silver or any other unit. This decentralized bank lends banknotes (blockchain based assets) into existence, collateralized by shares of the bank itself. It works just like the centralized creation of bank notes, but is entirely decentralized, electronic, and free from all contractual obligations.

This provides an alternative to copyright for the decentralized production and distribution of high quality articles that pays royalties to writers. A similar system could be adapted as an alternative to patents.

With BitShares I show that honest price information can be discovered in a decentralized block-chain based manner that cannot be manipulated. With this I have created options, shorts, etc. This can then be the foundation for enforcing other kinds of automated contracts via blockchain based consensus.

All you need to do to ensure that when you order the philosophic works of Diderot from a book store is have an automated crypto-graphic vetting of signed agreements to arbitrate disputes and a blockchain that holds your surety bond.    Make IDs expensive to build up and thus unprofitable to scam someone over a small purchase.   Have the escrow agents/arbiters set up with an appeal process and watch the market forces interact to get the desired result.


Mike Hearn has some interesting ideas. The key field of study is Mechanism Design (manipulating market forces to produce the desired outcomes). Set up the proper incentive structure and people will compete to increase honesty and integrity.

To use an analogy: if ten people declare an independent state, what validity does that declaration have? If I broadcast to the world: "I own 1 metric ton of gold", that does not make it so. It is through a system, which makes these declarations valid. In the Bitcoin network the declaration: I own 1 BTC, is valid. But that statement refers only to the virtual entity of Bitcoin. No other legal entities can be created this way. The Bitcoin network does not know of concepts such as a purchase contract, a service contract, an asset, a loan, etc. If I order the philosophic works of Diderot from a book store, I expect a certain result, namely that a new book is delivered on time, with a certain quality. This process works, because civilization is set up so that some properties are ensured (rights and obligations). Some of these newer systems with assurance are very far away from delivering such "functionality". It is the question what this really would mean. The only really sound work in this direction that I am aware of is Mike Hearn's, but there some major conceptual things missing there.
