I’m doing some research into how this is connected to the fiat economy and finance capital. If anyone has suggestions of what to look at or search for, I’d appreciate it.

Second-order dynamics in financialised capital, or the fact financialisation of capital is essentially mimicking the infinite paperclip problem. Runaway infinities are a predictable output of the system.
