The creative social network. ✳︎ rodeo.club

something feels very warm and fuzzy about iterated reciprocity. (probably because it's the evolutionary basis of all human social coordination, but just guessing)

two places I've observed it recently:
1) collecting on @rodeodotclub, getting rewards back, collecting again
2) sending out tips, getting tips back, tipping again

watching a balance go down and right back up again is very satisfying. but it's less common than it should be: many crypto exchanges are one way, impersonal, or zero sum!

First Draft Club

** Positive Sumcaster ** (my /firstdraft )

I don't think I heard the phrase 'positive-sum' before web3. And I never knew what it meant before Farcaster. 

You could say it's 'everybody wins,' but I think it's more correctly that 'normally' (in zero sum) there is a pie of resources & we fight for it. If I get 10%, you won't. In positive-sum, it's not just that we all get some pie, but that we are increasing the pie size through our collective resources & efforts. 

We could list regular positive-sum efforts on FC, but this week highlighted it in 4K. I didn't see the 'Farcaster Crowdfund' mini app created by @nicholas & @seedclub until @bertwurst.eth did the fundraiser for @klusya 's Lada. And then the explosion. I saw someone joke, 'When did we become GoFundMe?' But it struck me that this is the expression of positive-sum. @anemale.eth is suffering w/ Jungle in surgery. @ifeoluwafavour desperately needs a phone for work & gets it! And numerous others I can't think of atm.
