Always. That’s why it has to be done at the smallest possible level. Today it’s at the global level (with current tech platforms). I’d argue we ought to decentralize that to the community level....

I would go even further. There is no "governance model" that is generic. A community might agree on when you should not make loud noises, but they should not govern what you smoke on your balcony.

Meaning this - you can be sovereign individual in what your money for saving is. Your business, comunity should not touch it. But the community will probably converge towards several payment networks (which might be using completely different tech than what you save in). And these networks might be global, although you agree locally on the use. You might belong to several communities, even in the same area. The tennis court has different governance than the park.

I think this is what most people don't get - one extreme is statists thinking "you can't do cherry-picking, it's all a package - taxes, education, healthcare, roads, laws, ...". But with flag theory we see you can absolutely do cherry picking. Sovereign individuals think it's all on them. I agree there will be individual, community and global aspects, but each with cherry-picking where it makes sense.

And it's not designed, but discovered. (How it looks like is in @Tamers of Entropy).
