> ...is there any way to get to an MVP without having a sovereign state to experiment with? Or is this solely in the realm of public policy?
I don't know, but technology like http://ethereum.org may make it possible to move some things from the realm of states into software. For example, given data feeds of births/deaths/retirements, it might be possible to implement a software contract for voluntary social security that pays contributing participants an annuity from retirement until death.
