Living in the spread\n>\n\n\n> Postcapitalism is not the opposite of capitalism — it's what becomes possible when we stop assuming capitalism as the only grammar for economic interaction. We don't think it is a utopia, ideology, or predetermined system. Rather, it's a social and computational frontier: the possibility that economic coordination can evolve beyond the structural limitations of capitalist computation — where value is reduced to profit, coordination to market price, and agency to ownership or labor.\n>\n> In our framing, postcapitalism begins when economic agency is distributed: when agents define their own value semantics; when coordination is structured through self-defined protocol, not institutions; when utility is distributed through networks, not extracted by capital; when economic computation becomes expressive and composable. It is not just decentralization — it is a new form of economic agency.",
