Has Crypto Really Changed The World As We Know It?

I’ve read like dozens if not over a hundred different posts and articles claiming that Crypto has changed this world. All of which are entering into the world of technology and the approach to using technology that we have available. Some go as far to talk about the changing of the worlds monetary systems and many other topics that are related to economics.

Rarely if any actually go into the “Change” aspect of it all.
What has Crypto changed outside of the realms of technology and economics?

I asked myself the following questions:

1-Has the introduction of Crypto changed any of the morals on this planet?
2-Has it been used to solve the violence in this world?
3-Has it been used to reduce poverty on national, continental or international levels?

The answer is NO to all of three of these questions.

The reality of life on this planet as a member of the human species is that change takes time, that any changes that could affect the way we approach things in our lives require will power. Change requires the willingness to change.
Reading the headlines out there on various sites I have noticed huge differences in how “governments” national representatives in power approach the concept of Crypto.

I’ll use real world terms as far as the divisions and subdivisions of humanity go.

The Western world governments are fumbling around and trying to find ways to monitor and tax earnings made via Crypto.

The totalitarian governments and those governments that rule over the people and do not represent the nation or the state have tried to ban and restrict the use of crypto.

While the third world countries ignore crypto, or should I say couldn’t give a damn about what the people do with crypto.

Yes, this is a generalization; however, let us take a look at the headlines in the past year alone.

What were the headlines from The USA?
Basically they all revolved around “monitoring and finding ways to tax profits”

What were the headlines from China?
Basically they wanted to CONTROL it or ban it.

Lets have a look at the latest headlines from India:
> “India Announces Restrictions on Crypto Use, Values Slide“
Source: https://www.crypto-news.net/india-announces-restrictions-on-crypto-use-values-slide/

And as for the corrupt parts of this world where just about “anything goes” well, I don’t like to talk about mentalities that allow people to do just about anything to other people just to get what they want. Unfortunately, that is the reality for many societies out there on this planet of ours.

So, Has the morality changed since technology has given people the opportunity to become independent via the new technologies offered and made available to them?

Unfortunately, looking at it on a global and on national scales the answer is NO.

What does this mean in reality?

Well, for one thing, no matter how we try to justify things or look at things, we have to accept reality in order to help change the things that are “just not right” within it.

Or, we can keep trying to convince ourselves that things are going to change on their own, that it shall magically happen without anyone addressing it.

Now, I know very well that what I have written above may be too direct and without any gift wrapping or “politically correct or incorrect”, I personally do not care less for all that humbug. Telling it as I see it and if need be justifying my points as to why I see it that way is the only way that I know how to communicate. So don’t expect me to be tip toeing around topics!

So what does all this mean for those who are actually working it?
Well it could mean that people need to start looking at things from different angles.

As was the case with “immigration” and western nations taking in millions upon millions of immigrants instead of investing that same manpower and all those billions of dollars that were wasted on “immigration” into making life better for people in the countries that they were emigrating from.
Humanity cannot be saved if we have people in different parts of this world living in inhumane conditions. This cannot change overnight, not can saving a few million people yearly via immigration solve the problems out there.

Education and parallel economic independence can definitely change things, but this is a process.
What we see being invested in “Helping these less fortunate people” and into “immigration from less fortunate parts of this world” is just not enough and it definitely isn’t going to change anything!
ZERO! NOTHING!

So what in essence can change if we let things roll along as they are rolling now?
Again, ZERO! NOTHING!

This is depressing!
However, don’t forget that I clearly stated how investing in education and independence of people in their home states is the way to approach this, definitely no doubt about it.

So, funds need to be channeled, towards education for the people and all future generations out there in this world.

Yes, they do need to be monitored, so that we don’t see a continuation of what has gotten us to the state of affairs in this world.

Yes, there does need to be a common consensus about wealth in this world.

To justify these statements, I shall again refer to the Western world, which has by far incomparable living standards to those in less fortunate countries, such as those that we often refer to as “third world countries”.

There may be ultra rich people in the Western countries, but it is not these people that made these countries stable as far as living standards are concerned. It was in fact the masses of middle classed, or what we often call working class people. This is the case in ALL of the Western nations. Middle classed people, who are educated as per their own desires and wishes, who in general can afford a higher educational level if they desire it and who are the bulk of the population.
The ultra poor exist and it is the masses of middle class people pitching in via various charities and other means of support to ensure that these unfortunate persons get out of their economic crisis in a humane manner, no starving people.

Why have I touched on this fact, apart from using it as a justification for my earlier point.

Well, the same applies to this world of Crypto.

When we have the masses of Crypto owners become what is the middle class of the western world, then we shall see change. Then we shall see real investments into education all around the world. Then we shall see global changes as far as the morals of humanity go.

The ultra rich are not going to do it, they love their money for the sake of loving money. We could say that “money has become their God and wealth their church”.

I have many a time mentioned how technology changes but human nature has yet to change!

Crypto has yet again opened up another opportunity for mankind to change the course of the future!

Shall we make this happen?
Or
Shall we let this opportunity pass on by and let the future of this world look similar to what it is today with all the poverty and injustice and immorality?

Shall we see people who know what the middle class is worth uniting and bonding via Crypto with goals that are above and beyond personal wealth?

While the governments squabble over how to monitor, control, tax or ban Crypto, can people who have already accepted Crypto as a viable tool for real changes in this world start to organize themselves, ourselves, into logical and rational communities that contribute to fundamental changes in this messed up world?

Or shall we all keep doing what has been done and let life as we know it keep going in the direction that it has been going and let it be “every person for themself” in a “dog eat dog” world.

I will leave it at that, enough directness and up front expression without any nice glossy wrapping paper for one post!

Yours truly
