hear me out
a video metadata standard designed to allow creators to mint (tradable) patronage NFTs corresponding to a predefined number of patron slots per video. the current NFT holder is credited in-frame (via player overlay elements) by supporting players.

+ smart contract (suite?) for minting & transferring this kind of NFT. contracts allow buyers to specify how they'd like to be credited (‼️moderation concerns) and transfers some % of trade price to the creator each time such an NFT changes hands (‼️what if the creator's dead?)

+ market allowing standing bids for any NFT created this way (holders can see at any time what their patronage NFT(s) are worth)

The site cryptoart.wtf by Memo Akten (@memotv) claims to report the ecological footprint of cryptoart NFTs. But the calculation it’s based on is not valid; we can’t legitimately derive an ecological footprint cost per unit of gas in the way it tries to.

if i had a penny for each time i've been told "a free market could only work if people were perfectly rational" i'd have about three pounds. that's altogether too much.

1/n

it gets things back to front. one of the biggest virtues of a free market is its robustness and anti-fragility. all it needs are plain old *approximately rational* people to give constantly improving results.

a key reason: on a free market gains from choosing well and costs of choosing badly apply in large part to the chooser. he's well incentivised to consider carefully. this is v different to the incentives that choosers face under repdem voting contests.

if a medical treatment satisfies mandatory government licensing requirements its more likely to be safe than it would be if there were no such requirements, right?

not necessarily. if a government agency claims the treatment is safe (even implicitly, by allowing it to be used), most people are satisfied that it's safe, and the manufacturers aren't under much pressure to do additional safety research.

if the government took no position about the treatment's safety, and it was well understood that the buyer should beware, people would be more cautious.
