Choose the best and worst. There are no right or wrong answers in the academic sense. You may change your answers. If you have additional objects, you may add them as a comment and I may add them to the poll.

There was a nice money pyramid somewhere, If anyone has a link I think it had some additional ideas.

That's good, but too subjective for this poll. Most people think my brain and skills are stupid and don't value them much. Besides, it's easier to steal ideas than pay for them.  Grin

I chose "An IOU" as the best and Bitcoin as the worst.

I hope that is reflected in the results correctly.

I set it to allow 2 votes, so it should.

Human slave FTW !
I'm not making moral judgements here. If you think that slavery is indeed the best or worst value density, then it is a choice.

Ok good, because I would not want my vote to be considered as me thinking that "An IOU" is the worst and Bitcoin is best.

Insufficient data for a meaningful answer.  Undecided

What's the base unit for the calculation? They're incompatible. Also Bitcoin is immaterial, I can't compare 1 kg of
bitcoins with 1 kg of human slaves.

Trust me, the human slave comes out ahead at any weight. It is the only option.

Hint : selling organs, prostitution etc.

BTC can never compete with that unless it was $200 000 USD = 1 BTC or something ...

Human slaves are easily the worst and the price of a human slave is at a historic low 15 BTC or so. http://business.blogs.cnn.com/2011/03/07/cost-of-slaves-falls-to-historic-low. It is not even close to the prices in the early 1800's the equivalent in purchasing power of 6000 BTC or in roman times comparable to the prices in the early 1800's or by some estimates even higher.

As for the best it is easily Bitcoin since one can store a Bitcoin key virtually anywhere including one's brain.

Concerned that blockchain bloat will lead to centralization? Storing less than 4 GB of data once required the budget of a superpower and a warehouse full of punched cards. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/87/IBM_card_storage.NARA.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_card

The data doesn't correlate to any individual's vote. This is meant to show the values with absolute values. Like I said, there are no right or wrong answers, nor are the value assessments quantitative. These are subjective values. The reason I chose best and worse instead of best and second best is because the strength of belief that something is of least value will cancel out the vote of someone that has the opposite viewpoint and they will have equal value.

 The discussion will reflect the range of belief systems about value density. So you best and worst will inevitably help create a picture of belief systems we can each interpret within our own belief systems. It will be interesting if most people choose the same things for different reasons or there is an even distribution showing a wide range of belief systems.

If you already figured out what this tells about my belief system, then kudos.

Since people click the best and worst without distinguishing them, this poll somehow just shows which expressions people like to click.

Most potential value density is a string of text.

Because density = weight / volume

https://www.bitfinex.com <-- Trade BTC for other currencies and vice versa.

Which is exactly why Bitcoin is the most valuable per density.  You can fit all the Bitcoin wealth in the world on a microSD card.
