  1. A unit of account is one of the three primary functions of money. It is a standard numerical unit used to measure and compare the market value of goods, services, assets, and liabilities across an economy.

  2. Honduran City of Prospera Adopts Bitcoin as Unit of Account - The city of Prospera in Honduras has recently adopted bitcoin as a unit of account... - news.bitcoin.com/honduran-city #cryptocurrency #unitofaccount #bitcoin(btc) #honduras #prospera #crypto #news #zede

  3. Do #anarchist #economies need a universal unit of account? Many socialist economy models suggest a universal unit of account: Some of them circulating money as in capitalism, others non-circulating tokens based on hours of work.

    But do we want or need a universal unit of account at all? Do issues outweigh the benefits? I collected some arguments in

    All we see are #astroturfing #Westerners thowing stones in their glasshouse.

    Suddenly #ElSalvador are evil and need #regimeChange because they are working out how to use a #UnitOfAccount that cannot be easily confiscated by US and UK.

    Maybe the US/UK need to look in the mirror a bit because the world is moving on.

    Pot called kettle black.

    For the record, we only heard about this news from #antiBitcoiners, lol.

    #astroturf (noun) - a fake grassroots movement.

    If #ElSalvador and its people, are starting to see the benefits of #BTC over a #UnitOfAccount like #gold, of which #Venezuela's gold was recently confiscated by the #UK and handed to an extreme rightWing opposition…

    Then yes, that is only commonsense. What are you looking for #regimeChangeWars?

  7. If you thought #ProofOfWork was bad, take a look at Proof-of-Stake.

    Its 'complexity theatre'!

    A proportionate amount of #energy to backup a global #UnitOfAccount is fine, and much preferred over unproven methods like #colonialism, #violence and ProofOfStake.
