at the extreme, I don’t need to tokenize and trade on my religious faith but when I go to church there are a lot of other things I’m choosing not to do. We can call it it attention or time or focus but there is a market of things I’m trading my time & attention for.

Completely in agreement and largely why I’ve become disillusioned about the majority of anything being built here

already seeing this in this space. "price action is the only thing that matters" is a cancer to anyone building something for the long term. short term speculation has riddled our brains to expect 1000x's over night and if it doesn't happen just dump it and move on because clearly the project is never going anywhere.

There was a good section about this in Mark Carney’s book Value(s). He argued that moving more toward a market society from a market economy will result in price being the only thing people care about, and therefore everything will end up having much less value as a result. Was a good read.

So in order words, betting on lamine yamal winning the balon d'Or is unwise?

Absolutely. Some things are sacred. Some beliefs are held not because they’re tradable, but because they’re true—or at least meaningful.

I think it is a valid opinion that there should not be markets for everything but I wonder if it is possible to enforce and how far society must then go to stop markets from emerging and people from transacting - particularly as technology makes creating markets trivial.

Agreed. 
What does it say about you if you do though? 🤔
