No middle-class in GW2. Rich records 2 hours long podcast for more players to make money.

Achievement system integrates with how fast you make gold and progress on other parts of the game. Golden idea to be included into social economy design!

"Do x,y,z like "recycle 1 ton of plastic" - earn "plastic recycler badge and get a %0.02 reduction on your bills." This can also get out of hand quickly, slippery slope. Still, implemented responsibly, can work wonders for a society.

We want money to flow through people and make it flow through your community first.

Sell to your community first. Then use global trade post as plan B.

When we changed the way we trade, the nature of gold in game changed. We were prioritizing materials, not gold. Resources became money, a multi-currency economy.

Community became tighter, engagement increased, people socialized more and started to enjoy the game more. Middle-class emerged!

"Trade post guilds" changed the whole game.

If there was a manual for advanced souls, it would had to end with "Everything in this book may be wrong."

What are the assumptions at the heart of Minecraft's virtual world?

"We measure what we care about and we care about what we measure."

"You could be handed a measure and start caring about something that you didn't care about before, just because you're measuring it now."

"... it's the locus of trust. It's part of the common wealth of the community is a trustworthy measure. The only way that a community can work. And then of course they encode power..."

"Measurements help certain groups understand things."

"In fact maybe we should pause and think very deeply about the whole domain of things that we shouldn't ever measure.... A meta-modern approach to measurement, respects the immeasurable and partitions off regions that are not to be measured."

"Once you start to factor all of these things (meaning, ethics, objectivity, efficiency) that's when you realize we should not measure some stuff."

"People who think about measuring new things should also think about the ontology of absence. ... Every time you measure something, think about what you left out."

"Measurement simplifies complexity by showing you "this" at the expense of "that". So the meta-modern approach is like I see this but I'm also aware of that"

"Who is measuring who? for what purpose? who is deciding what well being is?"

"Put the measurement tools into users hands. Don't come from behind the curtain and say ta-daa this is your score. Let them configure and play with the assessments themselves. This will lead to a better assessment system because a million minds are better than a hundred (or whatever your team-size is. Secondly, it empowers as opposed to just internalize."

"As much as possible empower the person who is being measured, let them see how they're being measured, and actually be able to augment the measure so it's like if you have a mirror, you want to be able to clean the mirror, adjust angles, magnify etc. you want to have that capability for them (measured ones). And then they feel like they are not a test subject, but participants"

Great perspective on measurement.

"When you limit yourself, sometimes arbitrarily, and play the game, whole new possibilities emerge."

"Being is not possible without limitation. The price you pay for being is limitation and the price for limitation is suffering."

Implicitness requires explicitness.

We need memory and duplication (~sharing) to progress. We can't talk about memory & duplication if a system can't be defined explicitly. Reputation systems fills this role.

Yes, all forms of centralized power are likely to do harm at some point. (eg. 2008 Banking Crisis)

Original reputation was P2P but current structure of digital communication forced it to get centralized. We need more granular, P2P reputation systems.

Reputation is the OG incentive system.

Our legacy reputation tracking capabilities haven't adapted to the age of internet, yet. I'm betting it will.

Reputation measures value and this argument can be applied to any system dealing with value:

We incentivize robbers by putting gold into banks. If the bank is robbed, it goes bankrupt.

Digital native coins like Ethereum are more advantageous due their less-trust-required nature. Libra Assoc.'s biggest challenge will be to earn trust and don't lose it.

Who are they? Worth looking into.

Libra is a basket of things which we can question their intrinsic values also. Libra will re-trigger "Intrinsic Value of MoE" discussions.

Currently, when we say fractal computation, we are simulating fractals using binary operations. What if "binary" emerges on fractals? Can we find a new computation realm that can simulate binary? Can "fractal computing" be a lower level approach to our current binary understanding of computation?

Does the writer imply that ego emerges on energetic asymmetry? I would argue that it is possible to be perfectly balanced when "ego is in".
