You could yes, I just don’t think it would be as appealing as a traditional security. You can have contract and property laws and enforcement and still have a free market.

Companies and people have disputes all the time, and it’s good for there to he legal arbitration as opposed to violence. Or say someone within the company embezzles money. It’s good to have a system by which they can be punished and perhaps even have the assets recovered

mostly i’m really interested in the idea of how you could scale a company to be larger than apple/aramco while being free from dependencies like nationality, or a single point of failure like using the NASDAQ or some blockchain.

something simple that would work fine in a completely free-market system.

that sounds…scary lol

A huge, sovereign corporation accountable to no one but its anonymous shareholders

But yea, again, I don’t think it’s plausible. What if a subgroup of employees decide they won’t obey the board or whatever? Then the value of the equity asset crashes, but all the physical assets are still there? Who gets the physical assets? It’s just a free for all?
