CURRENCY

TRADE RELATIONSHIP

Civil society

The Great Depression (1930s)

In Economics We Trust…

Borrowing debt (advanced and retarded money)Permission to violate the laws of physics…

• So do I have to pay you back?

• Behind value is trust and desire, not intrinsic accounting

• Borrow once, pay geometrically…

But money is only simple information exchange

• Decentralized agency

• Central semantics

Exchange requires INTENT

The promise is the source of intent by which all promisees and observers may calibrate their expectations….

The voluntary basis of trust….

1. Agents and super agents make promises in a scaling hierarchy

2. An agent can never make a promise about another agent’s behaviour (only its own)

3. An agent’s promise need not be accepted or used by its intended or unintended recipient!

4. An agent makes its own valuations: what you have is only worth what another is willing to give you for it

5. Dependency invalidates promises
