Simplifying transactions in a quantum economy
3:11:47 - 3:16:39 (04:51)
The concept of developing a simplified system that simplifies the complicated space of transactions to plug into economics and deploy practical systems that could be useful for a distributed generalization of blockchain or the quantum analog of money is discussed.

Summary
The comparison of lettuce transportation and the value of it in different places leads to the question of whether there could be a theory of economics akin to general relativity. The microscopic transactions and arbitrage opportunities create a need for more comprehensive studies.

The idea of a distributed generalization of blockchain that leverages quantum concepts, such as uncertainty, could be the quantum analog of money.
3:14:58 - 3:16:39 (01:40)
Summary
The idea of a distributed generalization of blockchain that leverages quantum concepts, such as uncertainty, could be the quantum analog of money. While quantum prototypes of such a system exist, a better understanding of how this plugs into economics is needed to make it a practical reality.
