i often think about the parallels between investing in people through coins and nation states’ capital lifecycle going into citizens

in most countries tax is mandatory, with little say how that capital is deployed, and equally no upside from it. effectively an extractive rev-share to sustain the network itself, not its participants

investing in “people coins” incentivises participation in your local community. you get civic engagement and financial upside. participation is opt-in and you vote with money
