We live in exciting times

This is a special era that has never been seen before by human kind. Our world is rapidly changing in a place unimaginable by todays standard. What is now nothing more than an utopian dream, a fairy tale, will be a heaven on earth in the day of tomorrow. A world without hunger and greed, of pleasure, of divinity... Where we can once again trust one another. And live our lives to the fullest extend.

We are undergoing a transformation.

This is a difficult period, but the first steps have already been made. Nature is changing, and so are we. Technology will provide us with the tools. We need to find the answers. Philosophers are needed more than ever!

Present-day

First came the internet, a place that brought us together from all over the world. Gave us a way to share our ideas, inform one another, and collaborate in our common goals. It eventually became a database providing us with all the information we came to possess, as well as a tool to educate ourselves.

Speaking of education, our schooling system still lacks in this area, being almost a century behind in its methodologies. Though we can't really expect this to change all by its own, due to the current infrastructure in place. As we all know, power and wealth are with the few. And they are the ones calling the shots right now. But this is coming to a change...

Ignorance is powerful, but eventually will cease to exist. As in the end, truth will always prevail itself.

Whether those currently holding all the cards are in total ignorance and stuck in the system that made them, or perhaps noticing what's happening and forcibly trying to hold it back, they simply can't stop it. More and more people are waking up, realizing we can't go on any longer the way we used to. It's a hectic and confusing time right now, a time in which we need to re-educate ourselves. We already have a lot of the tools available to make the change, but they need to be simplified, utilized, and most of all, accepted, by all of us.

The Blockchain

Internet v2.0, the blockchain on top of the internet. Making what has become centralized, decentralized again. Giving us the opportunity to change the way we interact with one another. Eradicating the need for banks, fiat currency, and the so called middleman. Think about wireless transactions without any interference, with close to zero fees. Social media like Facebook and Youtube without any organization behind it, instead owned by all of us, nor will there be any censoring (at least not by a select few). And these are just the next steps, eventually providing us with the means to change our entire infrastructure, the way we think, and the way we grow up and live. Placing the power back to where it belongs. To all of us, the people.

Can you imagine a world in which we need to work just one day a week?

When I ask this question many respond with: "that's not how it works", "no, not possible", "People would just sit on their asses and do nothing but play video games". And this is exactly what I am talking about, it's the mindset of today, speaking from what currently is, and not of what can be. A transformation is undergoing, and it will take some time, but eventually we'll get there.

Because in the day of tomorrow, all is possible.

This is an interesting post. I agree that the world is changing, as it has been since recorded history. As with blockchain technology, I see it as opportunity to make a very big and significant change in society and how we do many thing. However with big change comes big resistance as well. So hopefully the dream of a decentralised economy can survive that.

"With big change comes big resistance". And the bigger the change the harder the resistance will be. Blockchain is just one of many things happening right now, but a very essential one. The world is a big mess as of now, and of course things could go for the worse. I prefer to focus on a positive outcome though (even being a huge pessimist :p). Trust me when I say that if we don't make these changes for the better, that you don't wanna live here 100 years from now...
But yeah, I do believe we can change, I got hope and faith ^.^

Over 100 years ago, buggy whip makers laughed at the arrival of the automobile "Get a horse!" they shouted at this new contraption. But change it did, and this too, shall pass into something wonderful.

People tend to forget how much has changed already in the past 100 years or so, and it's like a snowball effect. 100 years from now we'll most likely won't even recognize our current selfs anymore.

I am in fear of how rapid AI is growing.... that fear is that they were outgrow us altogether... might sound crazy, for now.. but look how much fiction in movies is now fact :O

Sure it's a possibility for AI to get rid of humans in a worst case scenario, but personally I don't believe it to be very likely to happen. Nonetheless It's an interesting topic to think about ^.^

Gosh, I hope not!... Before I would of found the idea funny... but now!... not so much!

Maybe Something happen like this in near future @droucil

Was that a question or a statement ^.^

Maybe smthing happn

nothing is impossible for a willing heart)

Just HEMP prohibition alone, wastes Billions of dollars, probably hundreds of billions world wide. And that shit was by a few pharma companies.
Then we have drug prohibition; massive billions spent on this, for no reason.
Then we have war prep. Trillions of dollars over a decade...

Yes, we can all just sit on our asses and play video and do social media now.
So don't pay your fucking taxes! Disarm those MOFOs!
HAVE FUN!

Lol, do I spur some sarcasm there xD
I believe it to just be a matter of time. Technology has its ups and downs, depending on how it's used. But it can surely help us redefine our mindsets cause of the possibilities it provides. I'm pretty confident that in a few decades from now we will already be seeing a lot, lot of changes (for the better).

A great post. If such a future comes, if a person does not fear lack of money, this will allow him to become more creative and engage in what he wants.
