“Social networks created a big-bang moment in sociology.” @Tim_Roughgarden on why blockchains could do the same for political science: “You could study these age-old questions in sociology at a completely different scale and in a completely more automated way than you could previously.” “I think blockchains, on the political science side, are doing that same kind of unlock — where you can study different voting systems and get data about them at a scale and with an ease that was never before possible.” @MTSlive(a16z crypto)
