My friend is doing this with real estate, the land and the house, and using cryptocurrency. He's just about to launch. I like this idea. We still need to address the affordability of things. We will lose the battle to the concentration of wealth. Power always wins. This is a helpful technology tool though.
Why invest in something that is entirely non productive like a painting, or a rare stamp aside from a perception that you might be on a "sure thing" to rake in some filthy lucre? Please don't try to dress this up as if it is a marvellous thing.
Pooling resources is absolutely the answer and what the people in power fear most. Look at how they reacted to GameStop, the Canadian Truckers, or more recently to the idea of buying Spirit Airlines.
But our pooling of resources should start with a new platform - one specifically for pooling resources and solving problems in groups - without leaders who are easy to corrupt.
The idea would be not to buy land. Or paintings. But to collectively by systems - businesses, etc. Then push for the collective to shop there.

Hmmm, yeah I definitely didn't. I think collective ownership is the solution (as evidenced by the article!)
Did you read the whole article? Sounds like no
Excellent article.

We talk about this extensively on the Swarm Academy podcast and on several of our articles for example this very fun one where we “interview a super intelligent alien” https://joshketry.substack.com/p/the-visitor?r=7oa9d&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web
