Question: do you have to force merchants to accept such tokens? In a free market, if not many merchants decided to accept such tokens what are they good for?
Or another: what do those tokens correspond to? Real bitcoin on-chain? Where do you get enough from to give 100 tokens to everybody? How do you procure them? If Bitcoin allows opting out and holding absolute true property, you won’t be able to coerce people to give them away.
Many questions, sorry, but I don’t ask in a cynical way. This is an interesting thought experiment.
