The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Andy Milenius no published score: no usable exchanges on raw tape, and a fair score needs 8+ record → ← everyone

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q I mean, isn't that what everybody's doing though? When you think about a cryptocurrency?

A Currency and money are actually different. It's a subtle distinction, right? Currency are units. These are the things that we can or can't use as money as we want to, but money is much more like a symbol. It's a collective understanding. So I can make currency units. The question is, do people accept them and use them as money, right? That's on them. And so makers sort of attempt to actually create money. And so we issue all these currency units as debt against assets, just like there's this huge historical tradition of doing. And that currency that we issue is called DAI, D-A-I. So, as we come up to today, if we have this tradition of money creation as debt, and then we get into the future, we want the blockchain to actually work, because this is an important thing, right? The blockchain space has sort of, it's proceeded in fits and starts. It's captured a lot of people's imagination, but there's been sort of a lack of traction where the rubber actually meets the road, right? And that's, you know, customers, entrepreneurship, these sorts of things.
