@d3h3d_ @a_vaunt @SuiNetwork @ikadotxyz @WalrusProtocol Of course not, but it does need the state transition in those n markets where the product is advertised.

@d3h3d_ @a_vaunt @SuiNetwork @ikadotxyz @WalrusProtocol Because maybe you want to advertise the same product in 5 different markets (shops), just like it happens today.

We love this important debate you both @d3h3d_ @a_vaunt are having here. Important for the real adoption of these technologies. As of today, it seems like only two networks are truly on the path to onboarding real world use cases, starting from their data model and scaling all the way up the stack. Specifically, the use case @HardMoneyProjec focuses on is self-sovereign money. Money, to actually be self-sovereign as Satoshi envisioned, depends on real on-chain commerce secured on a distributed network. That brings us to this example question to show why scalability for complex transactions (swaps) actually matters, a lot! for the real world adoption of the future. If Web3 is about returning ownership of asset logic (rights) to users through tokens' state secured on distributed networks, ask yourself: how many swaps per second would be needed if we combined EVERY ONLINE SHOPPING CART on today’s web? (Probably the biggest use case of the internet right now). Imagine, not even counting financial markets... Because every time you buy something in a shopping cart, you’re securing a swap: the transfer of money ownership on the buyer's side for assets ownership of all kinds from the seller on the other. That could be 2, 5, 10, or +50 assets swapped in a single bundle, atomic transaction. So, what kind of swaps per second numbers could we be talking about here? Do you have estimates?

Totally agree! We don’t know exactly how much Satoshi knew about economics, but everything written on the subject is sound and, as you well pointed out, rooted in first principles. After all, history has never seen a commodity as base money with absolute scarcity. One that, as Satoshi described, functions like a base metal or a "basic P2P currency" on which to build self-organizing communities experimenting with new economic paradigms. There are definitely things that align with economic theory, like Satoshi’s writings on what’s needed to sustain over time and stabilize currency value and prices, including the fact that he explicitly mentioned, twice, that he tried to program it but couldn’t make it work just with software. I highly recommend this project and readings, Saifedean. Sure you’re going to enjoy it.

When Satoshi Nakamoto and @elonmusk align on important first principles. 🎯 Remember what Satoshi said: "I don't know a way for software to know the real world value of things. If there was some clever way...to actively manage the money supply to peg it to something, the rules could have been programmed for that."
The real economy is not money, it is goods & services. Money is simply an abstract representation of real things.
