Futarchy, Recursive Incentives, and Decision Markets

New @greenpillnet pod out today! 🌐

In this episode of the Greenpill Podcast, Kevin Owocki sits down with Jake Hartnell reality engineer, builder, and the mind behind ENOVA to explore the idea of hyperstitions: beliefs and narratives that become real by spreading through networks.

Jake explains how hyperstitions operate as a new coordination primitive, why technologies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and AGI can be seen as successful hyperstitions, and how tools like hyperstition markets blend prediction markets, incentives, and storytelling to drive collective action. They discuss ENOVA, egregores, cybernetic systems, futarchy, and how communities can consciously design narratives that pull the future into the present.

A deep and playful conversation about memetics, crypto-economics, and how collective belief can shape the world.
