To solve the 21st-century challenges, we need regeneration at an institutional scale! #ReFi Kolektivo allows local communities to launch, finance, and govern their regenerative economies. Find out how in our fresh dropped Bluepaper👇 kolektivo.network

A Sunday read. Thanks to Cem F Dagdelen for the helpful feedback, and @kevincarson1.bsky.social for a ton of inspiration. "Regenerative Design in the Many Worlds: A Cosmic Case for Distributed Autonomous Technologies" medium.com/prtc-media-col…

"There’s also a concept of ‘transvestment,’ which is a concept by Dmytri Kleiner and Baruch Gottlieb, which is like transfusing blood from the capitalist system. You do a transfusion and once it’s in the commons, once we have value sovereignty, we don’t give it back."

@pdxregencommons // hello there ... just wanted to name that im a big fan of how these words are being used. There are so many ways to assemble English words, I'm not a fan of most of them. Sometimes though...I see a solid block of words. Good spell casting here friends.

JUST OUT IN Kernel Magazine RebootHQ! Lighten the Load of the Nation-State kernelmag.io/2/lighten-nati… Who knew Zack Morris explains our current situation with toxic ethno-nationalism? Kind of a counterpoint, maybe, to Balaji' Network State.

Distributed ledgers steal statefulness from the state.

Pluralism. Localism. Anti-Authoritarianism.

Introducing PRTCs counter-memory collective, and our first piece. In which we discuss the potentials of distributed ledger technology & its place in a history of struggle for legibility. Guest appearances from James C. Scott, Saidiya Hartman, Max Keiser. medium.com/prtc-media-col…

GM - a thread Portland and greater Cascadia has been for decades & continues to be a haven for experiments in community autonomy, and the DIY & pirate technologies to facilitate it. What it doesn’t need is a project that seeks to take charge, take direction, take ownership- 1/x

The day has arrived! Join us for our first gathering tonight. As we begin creating this new space together, we ask that everyone keeps in mind the values of resilience and autonomy. We will have masks, hand sanitizer, and outdoor space available. Accessibility is resiliency.

Maybe my favourite podcast yet! We talk about my intellectual history, early background in psych/religion & biophysics, meaning of Sustainability Existentialism, how Collaborative Finance addresses fundamental problems in the monetary system, why DeFi is still naive, and more!

Ethan Buchman (🐝,🦇) Loved the podcast, we're moving in this direction in Portland (@pdxregencommons). Would love to interface with you as an org in the coming months. In the meantime, what would you recommend in terms of actual available tooling for mutual credit and MTCS on the b2b scale?
