If you're getting ever more excited about cryptocurrencies nearing perfect openness for the masses, perhaps you're not ready to get the rain poured on your head. After all, this "new future" is coming more and more online every day: Binance and Bittrex adding full USD support, Ethereum smart-toys, the ads for 5G rolling out and all this and all that.
What's wrong with this picture? "Technology is progressing and we're ready to embrace it!"
Okay, okay. Let's not expell more negative energy about how all of this is evil, but let's DO ask more questions. After all, if cryptos really were there to save the world they would've been shut down a long time ago, ya?
But man it looks like the system has been so friendly to it -- very friendly. Instead of them embracing cryptos with a "if you can't beat em, join em" attitude, I imagine something more like a venomous snake with sharp fangs opening slowly, and awaiting its prey to safely come inside.
Yeah, I do.
Be careful where you get your information from, my friends. Basically anything anyone can tell you about something, you can't be 100% sure about. But we do have evidence from the recent past that suggests something incredibly wrong.
- "Cryptocurrencies are there to take power from the banks" -> Goldman Sachs buys X exchange, Banks invest X in crypto project. PoW and PoS favor the rich. Government KYC/AML required to purchase cryptocurrencies?
- "Bitcoin was meant to be an anonymous cryptocurrency" -> NSA invests in crypto tracking company, all public blockchains can be scanned and traced. Government KYC/AML required to purchase cryptocurrencies?
- "Bitcoin was the free market's answer to a failing fiat currency" -> A fully digital currency that REQUIRES a massive destruction of our environment and waste of resources to function, as well as massive government interference and potential exposure to all of human labor being absorbed into digital space, instead of actual elements on the periodic table?
Truthfully, I don't even want to cover cryptos anymore. People can believe what they want.
I want to encourage more existence in the physical world, interacting with real people in real ways, using real money to exchange real things, and exchanging real information to solve real issues.
After all, if we can agree that the markets are fake manipulations, and that mainstream media is fake news, and that YouTube and Twitter are mainstream social media outlets, it becomes a matter, then, of what you choose to lead your life into.
So let them make their 5G hi-speed robo crypto network. But don't let them bunch you up into smart cities and feed you what they want to feed you (in all senses of the phrase... food, information, lifestyles).
We're taking back our power one day at a time. Our own hustles, our own habits, and our own communities. Make the change yourself and forget the "global reset."
