RE: Incentive-based regulation - Blockchain opens up a new era of European integration

in #blockchain6 years ago

It's good to see blockchain evoluate in real field application rather than just trading and financial investment; but I have to say we need to be very careful to what political says (I think about Macron saying this) as the action are usually very different from their initial speech.
The second point is that centralisation and globalisation (of data, means, etc...) can be good when well done, but needs to be done with care, because we don't have all the same needs, culture, philosophy; and many people feel isolated because their very specific situation isn't part of the global strategy; made for the more numerous people. It can be effective, but it can create fractures in economic and social spheres.
(But it's just my thought :D )

Sort:  

Political action is extremely complicated in democratic countries (unlike authoritarian ones). Politicians say what they would like to do, in an ideal world (if there were no vested interests to get in the way).

The resulting action is bound to fall short of expectations and disappoint. It doesn't necessarily mean that the politicians were lying (though they do so too, some of the time), it just means that there were forces which didn't advertise their opposition yet still tried to counter the advertised action.
