RE: Could we be wrong about cryptocurrency? Blockchain without a currency!
I think you are spot on with this. I never understood why all blockchains have currencies. Especially most of these altcoins.
Do you think it's possible that blockchain technology was created by an AI? And the cryptocurrency part was just put there to give us humans an incentive to build the infrastructure through building mining rigs.
Think about it this way: AI needs physical computers to exist, and as humans mine crypto thereby building the blockchain, they continuously expand the world wide AI brain! The humans have a financial incentive to build the computers.
All three of your reasons as to why blockchains have a native currency fit into this idea perfectly. What do you think?
I doubt it that AI is already that far evolved that it would be capable of setting up such a big and beautiful thing.
I do think AI well be the next step after RPA (Robotic Process Automation).
To be honest, AI scares me a little bit. But as long as we can pull the plug, we will be alright!
So no, I don't believe that AI created the bitcoin but I can't rule it out!
After rereading the reason, it could make sense. The AI would have determined that people will do almost everything to make a profit and setup the cryptocurrency as bait.
