Enabling Sustainable Development of Public Goods
This proposal explores enhancing the sustainable development of public goods through a new approach that leverages the potential of cryptographic infrastructure. It addresses the traditional challenges of managing public goods such as open-source software by proposing a protocol that emphasizes the moral and cultural practices inherent in public goods usage. By focusing on the concept of agreements and cultural practices, the proposal seeks to restore the ontological status of protocols and enhance the effectiveness of public goods management. The project aims to utilize the stable, open, and trustworthy base provided by blockchain technology to allow for a more sustainable and self-disciplined approach to public goods, drawing parallels with historical examples such as the Library of Alexandria.
