diginomics – the study of the production, consumption, and distribution of informational resources across geopolitical forums.
Definition of the term ‘diginomics’.
When the word ‘diginomics’ first entered our mind’s eye in 2013, as we concentrated on how best to categorize our thoughts, it did so with the ring of a bell.
Here was something which could adequately describe the work we had been (and intended to continue doing) in relation to bitcoin – that nascent cybercurrency capturing the attention of a world in need of something which would not fall victim to the fallacies of human intermediary.
Often times people attempt to wordsmith by combining phrases which were never meant to be. Yet, this word ‘diginomics’ stood as though it had not been “smithed” at all, but merely uncovered.
A revelation unto man …
The word is a gateway which allows us to understand the concept it references: a new age of law, one characterized by a logical scheme superior to those which preceeded it.
It is an understanding which allows society to be governed by digital calculation. It is the most practical and timeless form of law known – born from the language of the universe: mathematics.
The English suffix “-nomics” is derived from the Greek term “νόμος” (“law”). The field ending with “-nomics” thus, mean “law of” whatever the prefix is. The term “digitus” is a Latin phrase describing a counting system for recording numerical information using the fingers/toes as digits (numbers 0 – 9). Digital number is an array commonly referred to as base 10 (decimal).
Therefore, in our estimation, the term “diginomics” literally translates to “law from digital number”.
Diginomics is a concept which has been understood by past civilizations yet seemingly forgotten beneath the sands of time.
An ode to those who came before us is here called for.
The ancient Pythagoreans, who revered the symbolic tetrad, understood that number rules the universe. They studied diginomics, and in doing so, formulated mathematical proofs that civilization depends on to this very day!
With the accelerating computerization of society, it is clear that this form of law is preeminent. We now live in a diginomic world. No longer is man-made, judicial legislation the authority it once was.
Our society is rapidly moving to a law based on mathematical code, brought forth by the pervasiveness and omnipotence of digital technologies.
This development towards a totally digitized society is what our institution reviews.
This is the field of research we study. It is our hope that those who care to hear our message will arrive at a higher understanding of law and order through the work we conduct.
We are privileged to have a front row seat in this transition toward a very different age of society and culture.
To live during the greatest paradigm shift in human history, one should yearn to find others who truly appreciate this awakening and relish in the discoveries which will surely ensue.
When the zeitgeist of our age reaches its fullest potential, we will have entered a new stage of consciousness, one where the dimensions of intelligence, imagination, and possibility are boundless.
