Re: <nettime> what does monetary value indicate?

[Molly Hankwitz <mollyhankwitz@gmail.com>]

Cryptokitties such an idea...money as expressive medium- because words and ideas circulate like currency - stamp the dollar bill with anarchy, antifa, Harriet Tubman! A token is something which exchanges and can circulate...at some point we step outside if circulation itself, which social media tends to escalate? is there any point in chasing ones own tail...will cryptoartworks require vaults? online communities have been monetized before...discussions around the specifics - “sharing””ownership””meaning”

reinvesting language and value with the value of meaning to serve esp margins 

what does this have ti do with internet of things? object-orientation? will processes develop price tags they do not already have...? strategies like performance for sale

room for generative slot machine aesthetic...how original is original when originality died long ago ?
