RE: Is Bitcoin just a quicker path to destruction? Long/medium term destroying angel... Short term possible Saviour... : A Short Thought Exercise
I agree with your solution! Cryptocurrency cannot solve human problems, but they might solve some money problems.
Only by us investing our time and energies in building the new world can we put tools like cryptocurrencies to good use.
There are a few giants left to slay in the global financial sector, my tomato plants can't stop them. But I'll enjoy sharing my tomatos while bitcoin goes a few rounds with them!
But of course they can :)
Growing your own food, will rid you of the need to use the money system to buy food. Telling your friends and family about it and helping them grow food will take them away from the system as well. Following this thought and collaborating with others to start to provide all your basic needs outside the money system will further starve the 'giants'.
As we see with banks and other massive corporations is a wholesale adoption of crypto technology. This is not the way to 'slay' them. In many instances, it's going to make them much more effective at what they presently do.
That is my point. The 'revolutionary' promise of Bitcoin is a false promise. As far as any revolution that will truly bring health and happiness. It sold people on grand ideas of paradise, but it is not bringing about anything new.
This conversation inspired me to take another look at the problems with our system. Here's my new article:
