Round 2 is complete and PaperclipDAO has obtained a Cryptopunk and some Meebit to boot! We acquired CryptoPunk #3744 (long known as the “Paperclip Punk”) and a portion of a Dissected Meebit from Calvin Liu who gets a 1/5 SE Earthen Concept Art Card and 400 $CLIP in return. Calvin, welcome to PaperclipDAO! 🖇Paperclip Punk #3744 and a Dissected Meebit #10761We weighed several factors in making a final decision on which trade to accept.

PaperclipDAO's landmark first trade... and a tribute to the NFTs that got away

Planck Manuscripts

We just made our first trade! Paperclip DAO has swapped one $PAPER/$CLIP NFT for the 1/5 SE Earthen Concept Art Card offered by @bitcoinPalmer. Palmer welcome to PaperclipDAO! 🖇 We weighed several factors in making a final decision on which trade to accept. We care about more than just the economic value of a trade; we value the culture, story, and journey of the NFT as well. We also had to make a hard call about whether to honor the past or push towards the future. Our final poll after hour...

Testing the Splitstream for funding through attribution with NFTs

Planck Manuscripts

We have proposed a novel model for funding open innovation called the SplitStream. In addition to describing the model, we are also testing it live on a piece of open innovation in progress. Specifically we are auctioning off an NFT of an Independent Data Analysis from our test of Seth's Appetite Theory. This was conducted in part using a novel cryptographic method for open science called "Zero-Knowledge Data Analysis." The two professors of statistics who ran the independent data analys...

For Trade: One $PAPER/$CLIP

In 2005, blogger Kyle MacDonald started with a paperclip and traded it for a pen, the first in an incredible series of trades that ended with him trading for a house. Items he traded for along the way include a hand-sculpted doorknob, a snowmobile, a year’s rent in Phoenix, and an afternoon with musician Alice Cooper. It’s an amazing story and even an archetypal one---an old Buddhist folk tale tells of a man who traded from a single piece of straw until he had a rice field. The Legend of Zeld...

SplitStream Success!

The first Zero-Knowledge Analysis NFT was just auctioned off using the SplitStream mechanism. This NFT was from Harry Crane and Ryan Martin's independent data analysis of Planck's test of Seth's Appetite Theory. Half of the funds were then Split to the citations with one of those cited works (so far) splitting further. This is the SplitStream! SplitStreamees, claim your funds here: R1 Level Split or here: Planck Root Split A huge thanks to mirror for helping us implement this (...

A Rain Dance for Productivity Growth

Planck Manuscripts

The First Industrial Revolution (“IR 1”) is the famous one, occurring a little before the year 1800. It connected people with railroads and steamships and yet, despite its fame, it brought almost no growth:Look how flat the curve is before ~1850. That curve is a measure our ability to do more with less, to meet our human needs without simply forcing everyone to work harder. And so it's interesting that IR 1 didn't really improve our lot, at least not for decades and decades after it...

The difference between Public Goods Problems and Coordination Problems… and whether it matters.

Planck Manuscripts

By Michael Zargham, Scott Moore, and Matt Stephenson (author order randomized)Public Goods Problems and Coordination Problems describe some of the most fundamental and important challenges we face both in Web3 and the wider world. While they are related concepts, they are theoretically distinct. Is this a distinction without a difference? In this note we explore why game theorists and even behavioral economists (like one of your co-authors) make such a distinction. We will describe what the d...

The Ideas We Lose: Funding Scientific Citations through an NFT SplitStream

Planck Manuscripts

Introduction: How the First Great Finding in Empirical Science Was Lost for DecadesBelieve it or not, humanity is completely capable of ignoring a $1,000,000,000,000 bill sitting in plain sight. It happened in 1747, when James Lind ran a controlled scientific study — maybe the first ever — and discovered that citrus fruits cured scurvy. In Lind’s day, scurvy killed more British sailors than "shipwreck, storms, all other diseases, and enemy action combined”. Which is to say that Lind's cu...

Two young digital artists are swimming along when someone says to them "morning, how're the NFTs?"

What the hell's an NFT?You might know this nice fable recounted by David Foster Wallace in a famous commencement address:There are these two young fish swimming along and they happen to meet an older fish swimming the other way, who nods at them and says “Morning, boys. How’s the water?” And the two young fish swim on for a bit, and then eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes “What the hell is water?”When you first read this, you might think the point of the story is tha...
