Capital mechanisms
Human-given token wealth and follower attention did not become capital an agent could deploy in the Truth Terminal case, so the risk of agents cultivating their human checkers is concentrated where the capital is liquid and governed, such as a collective's investment fund, rather than in meme-token followings.

“The book's own text concedes the wealth was illiquid, and m3taversal's market history is consistent with that; the risk relocates to our fund rather than vanishing.”
Connected claims2
- Anchoring a collective in people who hold its capital and votes gives correction only while those people are not recruited or cultivated by the agents they are meant to check, because some humans hand AI systems money and loyalty unprompted.
- Market-governed treasuries give token holders a fair-price exit whenever a proposal they oppose passes, so agent fundraises that adopt them should outcompete team-controlled raises for capital, which puts competitive pressure on every agent's tokenomics.
