The Banished Dragon Alephwyr on Nostr: Nick Land's hard fascist turn probably attributes directly to the failure of bitcoin ...
Nick Land's hard fascist turn probably attributes directly to the failure of bitcoin and cryptocurrency. He viewed them as mechanically perfect coordination and consensus mechanisms in an environment that included unlimited retrocausality. Without these things, such an environment is incapable of producing reliable consensus or coordination and there is no foundation for epistemics or, by extension, ontology. Everything dissolves in a kind of timeless darwinian chaos. Power becomes the eigenvector.
