About this audiobook
The Human Futures Market is a comprehensive technical treatment of emergent markets at the interface of finance, neurotechnology, biomedicine, and ecology. It formalizes the “assetization pipeline” (measurement → contracts → price → custody → collateral → secondary markets), then imposes constitutional constraints that render person- and planet-adjacent instruments safe or impossible. The text defines unit files, constitutional references, and shadow-oracle validation; derives valuation with a unified kernel that includes hazards, optimal stopping (revocation), and resource stocks (privacy, quiet, clinical support, maintenance, ecological persistence); and introduces “ethical Greeks” that make dignity invariants first-class sensitivities. Product chapters specify somatic leasing, reproductive infrastructure, cognitive and affective markets, longevity derivatives, neurodata attestations, and qualia renderings, each with disallowed collateral, anti-tying, and continuity provisions. Governance chapters codify a do-not-commodify registry, mission-council vetoes, FRAND after safety exclusivity, positional-intensity taxation, macroprudential dignity supervision, and resolution via living wills. Case studies and appendices provide term sheets, stress protocols, and a glossary suitable for policy, compliance, and graduate instruction. The book’s purpose is dual: to make exploitation legible by writing it down, and to make resistance practical by converting ethics into specification.
