For assassination politics to work, you are going to need a crypto
currency, whose currency is proof of stake, and which supports end to
end encrypted messaging concerning financial transactions, messages that
can carry money and commit to contracts.

A proof of stake currency is a sovereign corporation, and its currency
is shares in that corporation.

A normal corporation derives its identity and corporateness from a grant
of identity from the sovereign.  A sovereign corporation would derive
its corporateness from the fact that everyone uses the same
cryptographic protocol because everyone else is using that protocol.

A sovereign corporation is something that I am sure that Bat Soup would
regard as suspiciously like a state.
