# Value In the [Economic Space Protocol](/economic-space-protocol.md) value is no longer a one-dimensional (e.g. a dollar or BTC denominated) monologue. Through the economic space protocol it is possible to value, in economic terms, “externalities” such as care, the community, the environment, and indigenous forms of life. The wagers that people make in the realm of culture (as they’ve done on say Instagram or TikTok, but also as novelists or technologists or social architects), can themselves aggregate participation in complex ways to accomplish their own ends. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
