Summary
We cannot predict the future, but if what’s past is prologue, we are confident that humans will demand increasing amounts of trust. There are billions of humans on the sidelines of the modern economy and bringing them into modernity will require that we trust them and that they trust us. This trust could be supplied by governments, by corporations, by NGOs, by microregulators, or by any number of other technologies or institutions. In all likelihood, it will be provided by a mix of these, operating in what we call the “market for trust.”
