The Internet of Value is a podcast about one question:

What does the economy actually measure?

Today, most systems measure value only after life has already been converted into output: GDP, revenue, productivity, engagement, valuation, or price. But before output, there is time. Before performance, there is wellbeing. Before value capture, there is contribution.

Hosted by Moses Sam Paul, this podcast explores a new wellbeing-centered economic system built around four core protocol layers:

  1. ValueCapture Protocol — how human time, activity, proof, and contribution become visible.

  2. Wellbecoming Protocol — how physiology, emotion, feeling, thought, habit, and performance shape human becoming across a day.

  3. SAOcommons — how skill-based communities coordinate learning, earning, and organization-building.

  4. Wellbeing Identity — how individuals understand who they are beyond given identity, rented identity, and market identity.

  5. At the heart of the Internet of Value is a simple equation:

VC = W × Vcom

Value Capture equals Wellbeing multiplied by Community Value.

This podcast is where the ideas behind the four-volume Internet of Value book are explored aloud: through essays, reflections, conversations, research notes, and field recordings from the making of the protocol, the installations, the games, and the Foundation.

This is not a podcast about crypto, productivity hacks, or generic self-improvement.

It is a long-form inquiry into how human time, wellbeing, skill, and contribution can become visible inside the systems that shape society.

  • The symbolic shift from attention to wellbecoming i.e. # to ~

    The symbolic shift from attention to wellbecoming i.e. # to ~
    Jun 1 2026

    In this episode, I explore how the hashtag # became one of the defining symbols of the social media age, and why the Internet of Value now needs a new symbol: the tilde ~.

    The hashtag began as a simple mark used across numbering, telephones, computing, and early internet channels. But in 2007, Chris Messina suggested using # on Twitter to group conversations. By 2009, Twitter made hashtags clickable, and a small symbol became public infrastructure.

    #MeToo became more than a phrase. #BlackLivesMatter became more than a label. #ClimateChange became more than a topic.

    The hashtag organized the attention internet.

    But we are now entering a different phase. AI systems no longer need hashtags in the same way early platforms did. They can infer meaning from words, images, audio, behavior, networks, and context. So the deeper question is no longer only: “How do we tag content?”

    The deeper question is: “Who gets to define the vocabulary through which value is understood?”

    That is where the Internet of Value introduces the tilde ~.

    The hashtag organizes attention. The tilde organizes Wellbecoming.

    In the Internet of Value, ~ is not a decorative symbol. It is a grammar for locating human signals inside a value system:

    ~ = protocol ~~ = node ~~~ = facet ~~~~ = signal

    For example, BMI is not just a health number. Inside the Internet of Value, it becomes a trace:

    ~WellbecomingProtocol ~~Physiology ~~~Movement ~~~~BMI

    Protocol. Node. Facet. Signal.

    This episode is about the shift from trend to trace, from attention to value, and from public noise to living signal.
