"Proof of work is the root of all cooperation"

another perspective: all cooperation starts with trust; trust can be implied, spoken, written, transmitted thru thot (telepathy) or symbolic messages; often, trust requires proof of work to be demonstrated first, but sometimes it's enough to know that someone belongs to a specific tribe or group of people who are known to be proper hard workers;

the mantra "don't trust, verify" has come about because trust in society is at an all-time low (specifically, trust has been codified thru fiat rules, rather than exercised thru common sense); traditionally, "trust and verify" is a more cooperative approach to problem-solving; that's how any apprentice gets taught a new skill;

You cannot foster trust without repeat interactions. It's impossible to get a foot on that ladder without first having a shared PoW system that two or more parties can orient their attention. Trust is derivative of PoW.

part of human enslavement dynamics is making them think mostly in series rather than in parallel or holistically (i.e. by activating both left and right brain hemispheres in unison); the result is usually a broken mental model that creates even more chaos in society;
