Vitalik Buterin proposes radical plan to pseudo-decentralize the entire city
In a comment posted by Vitalik Buterin in response to a post by cryptocurrency KOL Farcaster, Vitalik shared a blueprint for innovation that would see the city built on a hybrid that fuses the principles of democracy, capitalism, and decentralization.
Answering the question of whether cities should "become for-profit or public interest institutions", Buterin advocates a hybrid approach: "We want public infrastructure that serves all income levels, we want cities to have a positive-sum effect on the country and the world, we have humanitarian values, and we don't want to solve homelessness by'giving them one-way bus tickets to other cities'."
