#WorldMobile has previously discussed #AirNodes and how they connect customers to the network. These AirNodes communicate with the Internet and #EarthNodes, where the blockchain protocol resides, via a process called #backhaul. 
Connecting to the Internet is simple for World Mobile customers. They can connect from their smartphone to the nearest AirNode or directly to one of World Mobile's aerostats, which are large AirNodes, and they'll be up and running very soon.
Economics is primarily a way of thinking about the world that uncovers the true mechanisms and processes behind, and helps us understand, what we can all observe. This is a forever thread collecting my #econthread tweets. #PerBylundthreads

On the #sharingeconomy .
Much to commend in #UK2070 work. Clearly a serious academic type regional planning orientated contribution to issues of regional inequality and what we need to do about it. Good stuff! However, whilst extensive, there are some serious omissions/lack of emphasis.

💷Financialisation with wealth extraction? The great 'unleveller' of the UK economy. This is a hugely significant omission by #uk2070? Needed bravery here. It hasn't been.
🌳 #GreenNewDeal? Surely worthy of consideration as basis to industrial transformation/ rebalancing?

👨👩👦👦Local economies? Weak section. And no mention of #communitywealthbuilding(I declare an interest!). However, this is a key local economic approach adopted by dozens of areas and growing in anchor institutions (I.e #NHS)

The new economy is becoming a highlight in China's economic downturn，said Chen Yuan, Chairman of CF40 Executive Council.
In the first three quarters of 2019, the #added-value of emerging strategic industries increased by 8.4% year-on-year, which was 2.8% higher than the growth rate of industries above designated size.
The added-value of high-tech manufacturing industry increased by 8.7% year-on-year, which was 3.1% higher than industries above designated size.
There's a whole lot of buzz about the #sharingeconomy. Many seem to think it is something new, with some calling for a 'new economics' to explain it while others deride the 'gig economy' as a higher level of exploitation, inequality, and poverty. Neither is a good analysis.
First things firs: the sharing economy was facilitated by advances in technology alongside consumer preferences changing from goods to services and thus from ownership to lease. These are not separate processes, but mutually constituting changes where each increases the other.
The advances in technology that brought about the sharing economy are those that allow for cheaper, faster, and more accurate communication, verification of factual claims, decentralized corroborated trust/reputation etc. They overall lower transaction costs by making information
Proud to finally announce P2P Models, my €1.5M 5-year ERC research grant to build decentralized, democratic & sustainable #CollaborativeEconomy organizations: p2pmodels.eu @p2pmod. Starting thread of tweets 1/10

@p2pmod @BKCHarvard The Collaborative Economy is rapidly expanding, but it is dominated by centralized web platforms which hold user data and concentrate all decision-making power and profits. 2/10
@p2pmod @BKCHarvard The idea of the @p2pmod project is to tackle these issues, replacing the centralized web platform with a #DAO on the blockchain, so we reduce the difference of power between the "infrastructure owner" and the user community. 3/10
