RE: Bitcoin Predicted By 'The Economist' In 1988? Is Bitcoin Core Some Kind of Long-Planned Trojan Horse For Society?
I like to think Dan Larimer projects will be the foundation for a better society...

Dan Larimer isn't really a genius in inventing new things.
He has been a genius in getting those things created.
I envisioned steemit and bitcoin-like barter long ago. As did many others.
The trick has always been to get enough development and enough publicity to get the thing to point where it will live on its own.
Dan Larimer also has the inenviable position to try to explain these things so that normal people might grasp and utilize them. i.e. I tried to explain to a person what EOS and Ethereum was, and they thought I was talking about running a program on someone else's computer. "Doesn't Amazonium already have a cloud service?"
