Great point.

How would you represent/express space exploration value?

Well it would have a unit, call it parsecs or whatever, and individuals would configure their wallets to hold it at some percentage. If I'm a space nerd maybe I keep 50% of my wealth in parsecs, or if I think space exploration is a misallocation of resources maybe I keep 0% of it in parsecs.

I like the spirit of what you're saying here. It touches on why I think crypto/decentralized systems could have a domino effect that disrupts how people organize and govern. You like space and would be able to "vote" for it directly.

Yeah, the directness of it appeals to me.

By holding a token and using it as money, I give power to whoever controls its issuance. I'd like more choices about who that is.
