Intergenerational Smart Contracts
Blockchain protocols protecting resources for future generations.

Decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) and smart contract frameworks programmed to lock assets and resources (funds, land, intellectual property) for extended periods. These contracts enforce 'time-lock' mechanisms that prevent current generations from depleting resources meant for the future, effectively coding long-termism into the financial and legal infrastructure.
