The Ingenesist Project tries to string this all together with just enough specificity so that an alternate financial system will jump start itself and become both visible and available to everyone.

Social Capitalism and The Innovation Bond
by Dan Robles
It follows to reason that all of the innovation that could return somewhere between 10% and 1000% goes largely un-capitalized. Now, suppose that an innovation bond were to come along which produces a risk adjusted return of, say only, 15% per year denominated in a fungible currency, investors would seek refuge in the Innovation Bond.

The Next Google will be a percentile search engine that predicts the likelihood that any combination of knowledge assets can produce or execute any combination of products or services at a known cost based on the supply and demand for those known knowledge assets. End of mystery.

Social Capitalism; The Scarce Resource is Time.
by Dan Robles
Every living person is allocated a certain amount of time on Earth. Time is impossible to forge, debase, or otherwise counterfeit – unless stolen from someone else – as such, Time makes an excellent currency.

Bizarro Capitalism
by Dan Robles
After all, every living person is allocated a certain amount of time on Bizarro World. Time is a scarce resource whose value is determined by supply and demand. Time is not easily forged, debased, or counterfeited. It makes for a perfect Bizarro currency. Of Course the Bizarro Currency would be called the Rallod (Dollar spelled backwards).

Social Capitalism: Meet The New Intangibles
by Dan Robles
Today, land, labor, and capital make up the tangible assets allocated by entrepreneurs in the production of all products and service. Meanwhile, Social Capital, Creative Capital, and Intellectual Capital of people and communities are called intangible assets. As soon as you leave the Corporation, this condition reverses. What if the new generation of corporations were built on this reversal?

The knowledge inventory is the most important part of Social Capitalism. It is also the only piece that will require everyone to think substantially differently about how we are organized in communities. Once we can get over that hurdle – it’s smooth sailing into the next economic paradigm.

War Is A Social Agreement
by Dan Robles
People have a deep seated unease with what the dollar is and what the dollar represents. To escape the dollar is to escape a tangle of influence that impacts everything we say, do, and think about ourselves and about each other. It almost seems that to escape the dollar is to escape ourselves.

Take note that debt can reach infinity but austerity measures can only reach zero … you can do the math on a postage stamp. If there ever was a need for a secret weapon, it is now.

Social System Capitalism
by Dan Robles
Now, look at it the other way around. Suppose that you have a perfectly good financial system and you remove all of the people, does the financial system fall apart? Ridiculously, 100% yes it will fail, who will use money it if there is nobody here? The cows? Duh.

Independence Is A State of Mind
by Dan Robles
Just when everyone thinks that Americans are up against the ropes, they come up with an idea so radical, so creative, and so astonishingly consciousness-altering, the rest of the world just shakes their heads in collective disbelief.

Social Currency Hedges Financial Currency
by Dan Robles
I have yet to see anyone of any importance in the social-media-guru-camp who has identified the inherent dichotomy between social currency and financial currency that rages all around us. No, seriously; every financial action is balanced by an equal and opposite social reaction. It’s a balance sheet of the balance sheets.
BP underestimated the social liability [...]

Social Capital Trolls
by Dan Robles
Naturally, we seek to anticipate the future usage of the term Troll in a context of Social Capitalism. We can say that someone who was in a position to constrain Social Capitalism has the potential to engage in troll behavior.

Black Market Social Capitalism
by Dan Robles
However, as long as it stays in the extra-legal sector Social Media will remain intangible in the eyes of the current financial system. This gives rise to two options: Government should regulate social media OR social media will operate in an alternate financial system.

This video describes a set of predictions for 2020 based on an entirely new form of capitalism whose velocity and voracity will take the world completely by surprise. Nothing is sacred and nobody is immune, not Facebook, not Google, not Wall Street, not even Governance itself….

Knowledge Failure Is Business Failure
by Dan Robles
The top ten reasons for business failure are due to a lack of knowledge, not a lack of money. In fact, the lack of money is itself a failure of knowledge.

Cluster Funk
by Dan Robles
The term “Innovation Clusters” makes for a good soundbite for politicians because it fits on a banner they can stand in front of (thumbs up) and waving the “I’m for Jobs” banner for the next election cycle. It keeps funds flowing to organizations to publish studies that conclude that more studies are needed. Maybe these “summits” ought to be renamed, Cluster Funks because that is all that they actually promote.

Crowdsourcing The New Exploitation
by Dan Robles
Most “turking” does not pay enough to cover the cost of the education required to complete the task. It costs a society countless thousands of dollars to teach and nurture a child to read and make good decision.

WIKiD Tools; A Futures Methodology
by Dan Robles
The forecasting methods that we are developing at the Ingenesist Project have become sufficiently vetted and organized that I have decided to formalize them for review by others. The “WIKiD Tools” method is fairly simple to describe and demonstrate, but be assured, it is a powerful method for predicting futures outcomes.

Let’s Argue About the Definition of Productivity Instead
by Dan Robles
Many arguments rage because of poor definitions to terms. If people cannot agree on a definition, they will not agree on much else. A definition should be definitive – here I will tackle 5 of the most elusive definitions that are at the center of much, if not all, global controversy: Data, Information, knowledge, innovation, wisdom

Group Buying vs. Social Buying
by Dan Robles
Suppose the group buying experience could aggregate packages of products. Strategic products would then be aggregated as “A Network of Products” that together increase net value. Yes, you heard me…a ‘combination of products’ with Twitter followers.
