Just putting this out there. Id love to see what would unfold in a generative dialogue with @jgreenhall + @balajis. Seems to me that there's fertile ground here to explore and unfold as it relates to the networked state, Civium and the religion that is not a religion.

2 questions for you as an invitation into conversation. What's been most salient to your heart as of the last week? Who's working on meaningful work or projects at the intersection of Game B, Finance and Community Building? I'd love to connect. Glad to be here.
