calendar.org — The NFT Calendar
Featured
2
calendar.org is collection of 365 NFTs on Ethereum - one for each Gregorian Calendar day from January 1st to December 31st. The owner of the day gets the special privilege of naming the day, but that ownership is subject to the Harberger Tax.

We have been interested in experimenting with the Harberger Tax since reading Radical Markets last year, and the days of the Calendar are a perfect example of a finite resource on which to try the tax. Under The Harberger Tax, every day is always on sale for a price set by the owner. To ensure the owner doesn't set an absurdly high price, the owner pays a tax on the price they choose. The idea that "property is monopoly" is really fascinating - and has us questioning the fundamental way we think about ownership. We imagine a future where the Harberger Tax is applied to land and other assets, and believe that world would be a better place.

@scoff I like that you put this theory to use, but why do you need to do this with fucking NFT. ProductHunt is spammed with these useless unethic products. Where are the times products were made to actually help people out instead of a pure individualistic way to make money. Web3 is a downfall in the history of internet.
