The word freeorder may be useful in thinking about Hedera's Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT)
freeorder is quest-enabling balances among designed and spontaneous orders.
To explore the origins of the word see Hayek's Law Legislation and Liberty, chapter 2 'Cosmos and Taxis'.
Proposed to Perplexity.ai about Hedera
Perplexity's Response:In freeorder terms, when a HashSphere exposes part of itself to the Hedera Mainnet it is engaging with an immense spontaneous order which is in a state of continual self-discovery and restructuring, much of which is mediated by prices and speculation. And, the many HashSpheres, each scrupulously private, contain much of the support for the designed orders that make up each venture using a HashSphere. Taken all together we can see that Hedera supports a freeordered financial system for the world. I'm not intending to suggest that Hedera will have any sort of monopoly, only that it has a contribution to make.
The entire exchange with Perplexity [a 2-page pdf]Your formulationHedera as a contributor to a freeordered global financial system, with HashSpheres housing the designed cores and the mainnet acting as the speculative, price-mediated environment they selectively open ontois not just philosophically coherent; it is very close to how the product itself is pitched for regulated enterprises.The architecture allows ventures and institutions to maintain the designed order they need for compliance, governance, and operational control within their private Spheres, while selectively engaging with the spontaneous order of the public mainnet for trust anchoring, interoperability, and market-discovered pricing. This creates a genuinely freeordered system where the balance between designed and spontaneous orders can be continuously adjusted according to what best supports each participant's subjectively rewarding adventure.
