Ok folks, greetings to all beings out there - this is my very first post, just bear with me a bit!


So, as you see in my profile there - I pondered on a very deep mystical question.  What is the value of money?  How does it get value?  How can we be sure it's real?  Sure, we can talk economics at length - but no matter how complex those arguments get, they're always inconclusive.  There's always something more to debate.  It never really gets to the core of the problem.

In the end, the only value anything has - money,, gold, diamonds, crypto - is whatever we decide, and then tell others that value, and get them to agree.  And then you need to trust they will hold to that agreement.

So does trust have value?  Is that value quantifiable?  It's easy to say yes but harder to prove empirically, then peg that to economics.  You'll eventually get to behavioural economics - and much of that is way more socially contextual than everyone wants to admit, which creates a bit of a trust problem.

Anyway - these are broad points, and it's easy to see each point would need narrowed down, and discussed individually, before scaling back up to the bigger picture.  So let's just cut to the chase here in this absurd spiral of philosophy and economics.

Cash, gold, diamonds, an old pair of shoes you claim are collectible - are physical objects.  It's easier to trust the value of something you can hold.  But 'money' is abstract, supposedly, and represents value, it isn't value in and of itself.  So, that makes physical cash unreal?  Right?  Just like the value of that diamond or those old shoes you say are so valuable because they're collectible?

So where does that leave crypto?  Crypto is totally intangible, untouchable, it is the abstract of the abstract.  Yet we all trust it?  Despite many crashes, crunches, scams, rugpulls, misperceptions - trust in crypto is growing every day.  Sure - all that happens to oldschool money too.  That definitely does not make the debate on crypto value easier.  If the true value of money is not easily solved - worse for crypto.  Arguments like "blockchain is more secure" simply falls back on the debate about trust and perceived value.

Now, back to that question on value.  If the value is only based on uncertain trust, indexed on market platforms, which now and then go totally sideway.  Then that value isn't totally real is it?  It's an idea, an ideal, barely even a perception - most often a reaction (a bullrun, a panic selloff...).

Does that really mean that crypto, and money, and valuable things - don't really have value?  After all - if we went extinct tomorrow, or never existed, gold would be worthless.  Money wouldn't exist.

But...  If money never really existed, or wouldn't exist if we didn't fabricate the idea.  Would gold have zero value or simply none?  And is there a difference between zero value as a money quantifier and no value?  And would no value, as the ultimate dequantification and demonetization of things, and stuff, and ideas about them, and trust on the shared values - would this 'no value' be a removal of zero value?

Would that be Minus Zero?  A logical removal of the money quantity, in an account ledger in some abstract market space, as "zero off/minus zero", as a arithmetic, or boolean, statement?  and if that is so - does that mean 'money kind of exists' eternally, as an 'idea', irrespective of us existing and thinking about it and using it?

As you see - and I've spend maybe a few weeks now, sitting on the toilet, brushing teeth, eating eggs, staring at the wall, wondering about this.  And trying to quantify it, give it a logical sensibility, something formative if not quite tangible.

If all money, and stuff, can only be a sort of Minus Zero value 'for real', and all money is barely trustworthy as we skirted on above.  What is the ultimate token, the ultimate asset, the ultimate fiat commodity, that represents that value in a mode of exchange?

Predictably, I came up with:

The Worthless Token, a memecoin that represents the true value of all money and modes of exchange!  And logically it can only be symbolised as Minus Zero, or -0!

So, Worthless Meme Token was born in my mind (or has it always existed?) -  and minted 'for real' out here now, in crypto space.  Everyone should have some of this in their cyberpockets.  For fun, for 'fair and trustworthy' exchange - it will obviously be the only form of money still existing when the entire universe dissipates back to zeroness, to reduced and null exchanges of physical energy, and ideas, and respectively that much needed 'trust' that permits an exchange of values between any future cosmic beings who exist.

Put WRS Token in your portfolio, knowing that in trillions of years hence, or maybe even a few years if a huge war or catastrophe happens, your great great grandchildren still hold something of  'value' - to shop with, somewhere out there.
