It’s an interesting thought experiment- does the content I see or post *benefit* from an identity?

If Saylor gets on and tells me to buy his new shitcoin will I do it?

What about Odell and Marty?

There is obviously a personal benefit to building a good reputation but I don’t think it really has much value for others- outside your local community and friends.

But on the larger scale- if we are leaving behind trust for our money- the fabric that holds society together- why would we hold on to trust for ideas?
