What happens in a steady-state or shrinking economy as opposed to an expanding one?
Increase the decay rate and people move money faster and more cash comes out of the economy which keeps deflation from happening.
Things are ok if the economy recovers. In the event of a near extinction event we'll have bigger problems.
I posted a stupid question a couple of weeks ago and got some good feedback.
@ChristianKl suggested that I start building a model of hypercapitalism for people to play with. I have the first one ready! It isn't quite to the point where people can start submitting bots to play in the economy, but I think it shows that the idea is worth more thought.
