RE: Progress LFTL #1

I certainly hope they'll embrace it. Though I have seen a lot of well thought out critiques of crypto. I'm cautiously optimistic, as I hope it will eventually lead people to the understanding that all currency is basically pointless. When people realize how much of a waste of energy and resources currency is, maybe they'll actually embrace that we can move beyond it as a species.

Most people have no idea how our current monetary system even works. Plus, it's been around longer than anyone alive can remember.
I get the trepidation, but if people want real change, this is one way it can happen. 😊

That reminds me of this quote from Henry Ford:

It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.

That's very true. I just hope it doesn't lead to yet another transactional system. I worry that eventually everything could become transactional, all aspects of human existence and the world. I don't like the concept of putting finite value on things and only thinking in numbers. It could go well if that system uses entropy, and natural order as the transaction system, but that could only happen of blockchain moves away from being all about currency.
