We could make a Rai stone economy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rai_stones where we take something sufficiently worthy to be Rai-Stone-able, like Wins for example ("ownership" of the win would just be a tag for purposes of the coin, the win itself wouldn't be transferred, just its Rai Stone incarn

I have a clause in there about imported Subers being traceable back to a Suber Creation Event. Presumably, this is something we’d do by proposal to authorize another nomic’s minting of new Subers. In other words, BN could fiat Subers into existence, but Agora wouldn’t accept them. Gaelan > On

I think a universal "currency" would need to be backed on something "real" at the beginning (like gold in the ye olde times) to be taken seriously for competitive commerce, because "secret deal" trades and favors just seem to be a superior kind of "banknote" to me. It's secret and more reliable - i

My question was a bit more broad but I get the redundancy. As for Blognomic, there is a way to keep it for more than one dynasty - to win Blognomic and keep the rule that mantains Subers in your Ascension Address. Not a permanent solution though, but doable if you're really into that. Is there a

Using tge same cyrrency for distinct markets with distinct financial controls is usually a bad idea in the real world where people are incentivized to maintain it. It'll be worse in a virtual world. I'd still support if Subers didn't supplant shinies but rather was exchangeable. On Sep 11, 2017 4

Idea: a “universal” currency that can be used across Nomics. I’d propose the name as “Subers,” but I’m not super attached to that. I’d implement it such that each Suber always belongs to one nomic. A nomic may internally allocate their Subers however they wish, but that isn’t visible to other no
