Can you summarize?  It's not just long, it's kinda over my head... as interesting as it seems.

So instead of sending a bitcoin, you can create an asset/share or whatever the case may be and send that. AFAICT it also puts in the users reputation, so everyone has a reputation record or something.

It had occurred to me that using bitcoin tech, you could trade shares of stock in a company, instead of portions of currency.  And the advantage would be that it would be I possible to naked short sell the shares.

It will be a decentralized stock market where any string can be a stock. It works equally well for short and long strings.

So..... NameCoin?

An unregulated stock market?  wow, like BTC but for stocks, noone can touch it.

Lets say , If I want to start a T-shirt company, I issue shares, and they are bought on the exchange and this funds my business.

The shares go on to trade and be speculated on by traders.

nice.
