I meant to add a disclaimer to the quote below:
A system where you can't gain capital by leveraging assets on cruise control with no human intervention or attendance required.
Some people will say that you aren't passively accumulating wealth by being an ASIC slumlord because you have to spend time and effort on ASIC R&D, but the amount of foundries in the world is so small that it's the equivalent of saying you're required to be a transnational corporation to participate at all in the endgame when the cartels form.
