Soulbound but FAIR price? Radical Rent & Quadratic Tax

For a sustainable economy of nonfungibles (like lands or names):

  1. Quadratic Tax: nonlinear contributions by 3-dimensional distance.
  2. Radical Rent: liquid ownership with a shared pool for development.
  3. Fair Price: demand-based recurring fees.
  4. Soulbound Identity: nontransferrable but revocable.

Follow the Principles of:

  1. TIME vs entropy: Force engagement via seasonal changes or elections; drive volume via capped the spending period of budgets.
  2. SPACE vs cold start: Bootstrap ecosystem via hyperlocal development; break through saturation via hierarchical economics.
  3. SOCIAL vs centralization: intensify people’s preferences in collective decisions; reduce tyranny-of-the-majority and factional control problems.

📿FAIR: “3-Body Problem” of Price & Rent on Nonfungible

Quadratic & 3-Dimensional Tax

Apply exponential decays (hence quadratic) and hierarchical structures (hence 3-dimensional) on the tax amounts by lexicographical distance: paying the square root √n of the price n in 3 dimenions: its preceding x−x_- and following x+x_+; its prefix name x−x^-; and, its supfix x−−x^-_-. For example, if the price of “foo.bar.1” is n = 16, then paying √n = 4 to its preceding “fop.bar.1”, following “for.bar.1”, prefix “fo.bar.1”, and supfix “bar.1” (as in alphabets …, r, o, p, …).

Use emoji ordering; for example, 😅🤣😂 with 😃 as prefix.

For locations, use encodings such as Quad Prefix Tree or Plus Codes. For example, San Francisco is QH84+9V (or, simply, qh849v), its Mission District is QH7H+5M, and its Atlas Cafe is QH5Q+HC.

... our Buy-rated stocks in GOOGL, META and PINS as best positioned within the space.

Alphabet, Pinterest and Snap highlighted the retail category as a particular area of strength in Q3’22 & as part of their Q4’22 outlook.

This dynamic should benefit Amazon (AMZN), Google Search (GOOGL) and increasingly Pinterest (PINS) as these platforms have relatively higher exposure to lower-funnel, shopping-oriented ad spend.

By platform, Facebook and Instagram are estimated to have the largest US social buyer bases, while TikTok is expected to see the fastest growth (~24% ‘21-’26 CAGR) and Pinterest continues to see steady adoption gains.
