Imagine if social media and prediction markets had a child.

We're delivering that child! It's called the Negation Game

Voting in favour/against proposals is a very meh form of Governance.
This is a highly volatile situation, so something more like the @NegationGame that allows people to debate, learn, and come up with new ideas (while rewarding intellectual honesty) makes a lot of sense to me.

In a world where we use discourse less, I'm hopeful that a tool such as @NegationGame can potentially be an alternative. Any other ideas?

There's also a shielded/private voting element that would be beneficial too (assuming ones sticks with a voting based model).

We should pass this proposal, I would like to see the process in which this can change. This is my negation game process. https://t.co/dgrpCLsYBa

[Bruno Wowk (Volky) @brunowowk]

thinking of rebranding the @NegationGame as
Gist Protocol

IMO github low-key misappropriated the term for their pastebin thingy

wdyt?

One of our guiding principles is breaking the link between ideas and tribes, empowering people to engage with ideas based on merit alone—free from the biases of who endorses them.

peak sense-making requires ideological smuggling — sneaking ideas past tribal lines

[Bruno Wowk (Volky) @brunowowk]

Ok, it's time to put my ideas out there in a more structured way.

Hear me out:

We need a new medium

Love tracking live science debates by ppl I respect on here.

A bit underwhelming when they talk past each other, though... but I blame the medium.

No space for engaging with tangents, and no time to go past the first few replies.

OH, sorry for the headlights.
Let's try dark mode

[Negation Game @NegationGame]

Starting to look a bit less like a 𝕏 knock-off, ain't it?

[noturhandle @noturhandle_]

It's been 10 years since Vitalk last posted about futarchy

odds on infoFi's success just shot up

@Polymarket's efforts this election have forcibly shunted the overton window in favor of infoFi

and the cost of experimenting in this field has never been lower

it's now or never

[Bruno Wowk (Volky) @brunowowk]

@VitalikButerin That's what we're building in the @NegationGame: a market for defensible ideas.

Think SchellingCoin on a graph of ideas (nodes) and negations (edges): the Schelling point is how defensible you think the idea is.

Would love to get your eyes on it

Hold my beer

[eigenrobot @eigenrobot]

lifehack you dont have to have "beliefs" you can just make stuff up anytime anyone asks for your opinion

theyll never be able to prove youre rendering on the fly but many will try anyway, and thats fun too

This question could eventually be a good benchmark of how well we're doing in the Negation Game. We're trying to be biased towards being open to change

[Negation Game @NegationGame]

When someone posts their opinion on 𝕏, do you generally assume they are open to changing their mind or firmly set in their beliefs?
