That’s probably the least of your worries, tbh. It’d be like missing the bottom screen of a 3DS.
We probably wouldn’t name them until they had reached a certain age
We know how good they are at combing-over.
From the Halo 1 warthog grenade jump compilation?
Can we please be done with the term “the quiet part”?
Added some links to my original comment.
It's not instead of central currency, but in addition to it.
The advantage is that businesses can transact with less conventional liquidity so they don't have to rely on bank loans. This allows them to charge less to customers who use the local currency.
In the long term, this makes money [in general -- both kinds] move slightly faster within the local market, which makes the money [both kinds] more valuable [within the community]. And since the money [again, both kinds] is staying in the local market, the community's wealth is less likely to be drained by external speculators.
I think Rushkoff's notion was that new local currencies would be in addition to central currency. It just allows businesses to give a discount to transactions that will keep the wealth inside the community.
It's a neat idea, I just don't know how you would protect it from financial services turning it into yet another abstract tradable asset that undermines the original purpose.
Doug Rushkoff had a talk where he called out local currency as a thing he’d like to bring back from the medieval.
Exclusive to the community, and only valid for a short period of time, so you can’t hoard it or siphon the wealth to another community.
Edit:
Found a blog post about it: https://archive.rushkoff.com/articles/local-money.html
It doesn't say anything about it being temporary, although he does mention that in his talk here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRWzOdUiqQE

They call them ReTruths?
I literally can’t even.
I don't fault him at all. If you're in the entertainment industry (and want to stay in it), a Twitter presence is pretty much required. Online posting isn't just a hobby, it's part of your job, and Twitter is where the audience is.
Or maybe an abbreviated hash of the text of their specifications?
What? This is bullshit. There are a bunch of national parks in Michigan. Pretty significant ones.
Why are you booing them? They’re right!
It’s not even piracy though. I never saw anyone torrent Windows_XP_Home_Cracked.iso and go “Hey guys, check out this operating system I made!”
It’s not that hard.
Fuck the RIAA: The artists should hold the rights to their music, not the publishers.
Fuck AI: The rights-holders (which ought to be the artists) should be able to distribute their work without fear that a bot will be allowed to use it to compete against them.
I just don’t see a healthy creative culture where you don’t push both buttons.
Pirating Windows for your own personal, private use, which will never directly make you a single dollar: HIGHLY ILLEGAL
Scraping your creative works so they can make billions by selling automated processes that compete against your work: Perfectly fine and normal!
