Hi everyone!
I have been working on this book for a long time and finally it's time to make some kind of announcement!
My new book is entitled: "Finanz-Jargon Der Eigentlichkeit"
It features a chunky chapter on Crypto Governance, but more specifically on how we speak about Governance in a world where Fiat is challenged by the relentless emergence of cryptocurrencies.
I pasted a summary of the book below.
I hope you will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed working on it.

Finanz-Jargon der Eigentlichkeit: Finance, Investment Banking
and the new language of Domination
We live in a prison-world of our own design: a permanent, universally acceptable, wholly inclusive, gender-neutral, politically-correct discursive delirium.
A prison-world, in which language has been “hollowed out”. Today, what we have instead of language is Jargon: a chronic intellectual "twerk", a "safe iterative space" that dominates/decimates all substantial emotional and intellectual life and informs the structure of our cultural, political and economic Verfall.
Jargon is a pure product of the Left. It is the bastard child of critical theory gone wrong and epistemological vegetarian brain farts; it is an Anti-Aufklärung, in the sense that it obscures everything, from the clearest, simplest, most fundamental principles of thought and aspects of our life on this earth to the most superficial.
Our enthusiastic and post-structuralist approval of Jargon simply means that the world, in this era informed by trendy social-constructivism, cannot make sense to us.
And that is the whole point of Liberal Jargon.
Jargon thrives on university campuses, claims victory at the highest echelons of billion dollar companies, such as Google.
Today, we are faced with a world we cannot understand as the most fundamental problems are not acknowledged as problems and conceptualized as such; we cannot understand this world as we struggle with truths that can be immediately countered with different truths proving Ad Absurdum the relativistic Contingency of Truth.
In the end, Jargon, a constant relief from the burden of thought, will remain standing on a world of ruins, triumphant, invincible.
A permanent Theodicee of Subjectivity, it is the ultimate nihilistic selfie: it is autotelic to the point that it negates the idea of truth even when - a metaphysical microagressive cheerleader - it gesticulates and puts truth on a pedestal.
This book draws on the findings of Finance, Micro and Macro economics, Geopolitics, Material Ontology, Linguistics, Aesthetics, Phenomenology and Critical Theory to relate how financial institutions and political elites have not merely altered and warped but, through financial Jargon (Finanz-Jargon), the subversive transactional language of the Left, repelled Reality, and how they, with our enthusiastic approval, have taken complete control of the world we live in.
