RE: Etherpunk Approves: Numerai / Numeraire (NMR) - A new kind of hedge fund built by a network of data scientists [Update: Take up a machine-learning course and have your fees subsidised. 5 more slots available!]
Interesting that all of these experiments somehow postulate that their cryptoeconomics tend to add value to their systems as a whole over time. So basically non-currency are what some of us call app-coins xD
Not quite. My context is to delineate usecases not to fit a currency into a procrustean box, which is a mistake. I'm not a maximalist of any stripe and think there are many iterations of the multiverse in which anything could be a currency (and also where cryptocurrency never gain any more ground or don't matter). I'm open to it, I just think some are more likely in the future than others and very few today really qualify.
Appcoin (and altcoin) are too limiting. I've dropped then from my vocab.
