Til that Yanis Varoufakis wrote a book about a post capitalist utopia society and that society used blockchain 

Big L's in chat for the sweaty nerds who cry about the left being anti technology

From what I've seen it described its a speculative fiction book about what his post capitalist world would look like, here's good interview hes anti crypto for replacing dollar( but on economic grounds mainly) but seems generally pro nft metaverse daos and blockchain

Have you read it? I’m not really seeing a way of getting to a world where capitalism is removed, but NFT/DAO/Metaverse still exist

Truly, the reason I got into blockchain was for all the huge lefty potential.... and I find it super upsetting that its got a (well deserved) reputation for being scammy.

Did YV write a fiction book with characters and a story, or is it more a potential future vision?

It’s such a low hanging fruit and obvious use case. If I was caesar/king/president I’d have made it happen to transfer all land registry onto a sovereign Ethereum L2 already

I like that he also calls for property records and stuff like that on blockchain, i think that's super cool

A technology that permissionlessly allows even the most unbankable to own an account and remit beyond borders at near zero cost is the most egalitarian form of moving money and proving ownership humanity has ever seen

Yes hes anti bitcoin as a currency because he doesn't believe that scarcity equals value, and while it does subvert power of the state he believes it gives that power back to a few big rich holders and doesn't benefit the working class.

But he is pro blockchain, pro nfts( including RWA use cases like a house deed) pro dao

interesting because i am pretty sure ive heard him saying that bitcoin was an interesting idea but ultimatly useless and unworkable

Here’s a 2021 meme I made about my Twitter feed

He's always been one of the good lefties 😇
