That last point might go bloody wrong in a trustless state. People don't share common value systems. I think it takes a global society to reinvent and stabilize evaluation systems and why should that society be better this time?
There's a second movement in the space, people use their new freedoms to increase their abundance. That became very clear to me while reading more equal animals.
I was thinking more in term of labor costs, why is someone's sweat over in Asia worth 5x less than someone doing the same job over in the U.S. Here on Hive it doesn't matter where someone is from, we'll value their contributions and work equally. I think it will do big things there once this ecosystem grows and becomes a serious threat to current giants who're mainly filling the pockets of the owners and shareholders.
The intrinsic values can be equal while the extrinsic value is vastly different. I've heard some interesting comparisons of german historians on this topic. The value of a person can be god-given, but it's also a norm of society. You can switch the people inside of a society, while sustaining practical value exchange rules, but you can't do it the other way around. What does that mean?
That means to me, if history repeats itself: HIVE would become unequal to others and enforce written and unwritten rules of its own society to become powerful enough to bring more equality within itself - the HIVE, meaning everyone on-chain, or rather 'The Hivers' who follow common rules / 'common chain sense'. The reason for that is, that we would need our content to be valuable and so we can only decided to value it higher and acted that out, as a global society.
Now, isn't that exactly what we're looking at in the latest past? With free Downvotes, strong policing of tags and communities, and empowering/increasing of stake rewards? I got flagged a lot this year, with 0 bad intentions and beyond what I would consider bad acting. But society here has changed, it's undeniable. Money makes the world corrupt, in any shape or form.
Give people the value back they've been missing for decades. Re-invent the internet as we know it. Stabilize the value of one's worth cross borders.
