I am not a scientist nor expert in any of these fields, but, from time to time, I come up with related ideas and hypotheses, so I write about them and list them in this section. Although some are tangentially related, here I list the articles that are broader than blockchains and financial technology. These are more about general topics, such as physics, chemistry, biology, philosophy, ethology, anthropology, history, religion, geography, and money amongst others. For more information, please see my about page.
