So, after I wrote that, it occurred to me that DSR
is like Mojo nation.  And we had that recorded somewhat
on the blog.  So doing a bit of searching, I found this
interesting sequence.

First, I'd written up DSR on the blog:

   The Digital Silk Road

wherein Zooko pointed out the connection to Mojo Nation
in comments.  After much nagging, I finally go Steve Schear
to help document the story (filling a sorely felt gap in
the FC world):

   The Mojo Nation Story
   https://financialcryptography.com/mt/archives/000571.html

Which more or less confirmed its influence from the
DSR system.  It also sparked Jim McCoy into also writing
his view:

   The Mojo Nation Story - Part 2

Great debate!
