Defines intrinsic value as the reservation price under a counterfactual that closes off speculative resale while preserving primary function, and derives a four-source taxonomy — Desirability, Utility, Necessity, Enforceability. Establishes the generativity theorem for objects whose physical features are null.

Separates money from currency as distinct categories, and holds that currency requires two conditions simultaneously and continuously: enforceable use and predictable guaranteed value. Tested against gold, bills of exchange, camp economies, hawala, fiat, and Bitcoin.

Applies the generativity theorem to CIC: classifies it as a null-physical-features object, identifies its enforceability mechanism, and shows the full D.U.N.E. profile bootstrapping from that mechanism. Contrasts the bootstrap against fiat, Bitcoin, and stablecoins.
