The document discusses the concept of 'integral blockchain' and its relation to societal and environmental outcomes, addressing the need for coherence in technology design that aligns with public interests. It highlights the importance of commons-based peer production and the emerging role of cryptocurrencies and tokens in supporting decentralized, community-focused initiatives. Furthermore, it explores various token classifications, governance models, and the potential of blockchain to enhance social justice and resource distribution.

What is Integral Technology? <Source:http://iflas.blogspot.kr/2018/04/integral-technology-in-blockchain.html?m=1> Technologies need to be more internally and externally coherent. Internal coherence describes how their design does not undermine the intention for their creation. External coherence describes how their design does not undermine the social and political system that they depend upon and which holds technologies.

The Need of ‘Blockchain for Good’ <Source:https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/04/blockchain-survive-backlash-social-purpose-jem-bendall> Is it appropriate for people apparently seeking economic justice and equal opportunity to use a blockchain in which only heavily invested actors receive new tokens? Is it appropriate for those seeking to put a new medium of exchange in the hands of the masses to use a blockchain whose tokens are mostly hoarded by speculators? Is it appropriate for a carbon emissions reduction project to use a blockchain which emits as much CO2 as a small country? Most blockchain projects bolt a purpose onto code and governance systems that were designed without public interests in mind.

These projects strive to be an integral part of a healthy society, rather than ends-in-themselves. <Source:https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/04/blockchain-survive-backlash-social-purpose-jem-bendall> Holochain Local Pay Meaningful Services to Humanity
- 9. The Battle Over the Institutional Ecology To what extent will resources necessary for information production and exchange be governed as a commons, free for all to use and biased in their availability in favor of none? Substantial Redistribution of Power and Money Property, together with contract, is the core institutional component of markets, and a core institutional element of liberal societies. Commons are another core institutional component of freedom of action in free societies, but they are structured to enable action that is not based on exclusive control over the resources necessary for action. <Source:YochaiBenkler,‘TheWealthofNetworks’,2006>

They still have a central platform operator at their core, providing coordination, quality assurance and, most essentially, trust. However, it is possible to go beyond platforms to protocols – to commonly agreed ways of operating. “Blockchain based Protocol”
