A Select History Of Autonomy, Sovereignty And Ecology In The Cryptosphere

Science fiction has always served as a testbed for the reimagining of possible organisational structures outside of the existing state apparatus. We will present a historical analysis of previous attempts - both in SF literature and IRL - to exit existing power structures and move towards a practice of creating counter-economic and ecologically-oriented organisational structures, as well as discuss the tactics and experiments for doing so we assumed whilst working on terra0. Following this grounding, we will present our conceptualisation of counter-economic ecological actions, how DLT, p2p systems and asymmetric key cryptography can help actualise them, and what we think this means for the future of tech development and social coordination.
