The Volatility Waterfall

Imagine two vast reservoirs of water. One sits high above a waterfall, brimming with potential energy. The other rests calmly below, having already plunged over the edge. In financial terms, the upper reservoir is our global economy—laden with debt, inflation, and plenty of capital searching for the next big bet. The lower reservoir is an alternative state of money and value, quieter and ostensibly more stable, yet still receiving an inflow from above.

Between these reservoirs roars a waterfall—a torrent of volatility. By itself, it seems chaotic, but with a bit of engineering, that volatility can be harnessed, much like a hydroelectric dam harnesses the power of falling water to generate electricity. Here’s how it all fits together in the broader picture of debt, inflation, military might, and a possible lower-entropy system.

Quickstart Guide for ActorKit

This guide outlines integrating ActorKit with PartyKit, focusing on XState for defining state machines and Zod for validating commands and events. It includes configuring ActorKit with dynamic secrets and hostnames for enhanced security and deployment flexibility.

Installation

Ensure ActorKit, XState, PartyKit, and Zod are installed:

Machine Component

A React-Router like component for conditionally rendering components based on the current state of a running xstate machine.

import { useSelector } from '@xstate/react';
import React, { ReactNode, useContext } from 'react';
import { AnyInterpreter, StateValue } from 'xstate';

OpenTok is a hosted API for adding real-time video chat to your application. The API gives developers the ability to create private one-to-one chats, group chats, or broadcasts that can stream to thousands of viewers in real-time.

When developing with OpenTok, most of the development is done on the client. The server is used only to generate and distribute room ids (sessions) and security credentials (tokens) to the client.

OpenTok has client-side libraries for JavaScript, iOS, and ActionScript, and server-side libraries for Ruby, PHP, Java, Python, .NET and Node.js. This add-on will set up your server-side environment for use with OpenTok.
