Hey LeoFinance Lions! Let's rewind the clock for a minute and get back to first principles on Blockchain tech. If you're an advanced blockchain user, this will be an excellent refresher. If you're new, then strap in and get ready to learn!
Blockchain is a distributed ledger that can be programmed to record transactions across a global collection of computers working individually. Blockchains are great in that they can't be altered retroactively without the alteration of all subsequent blocks and the collusion of the network. This has implications for everything from banking to law, but let's explore how it will reshape society in the future!
Blockchain technology was defined as a distributed database that stores all transactions in a network in a way that is virtually tamperproof. This article will explore blockchain's effect on society, from social norms to politics and economics.
Blockchain Technology Will Accelerate The Rate Of Change
The blockchain is going to cause a revolution. Like the Internet in the 1990s, blockchain will change everything. Although blockchain technology is still new and developing rapidly, we're already seeing blockchain disrupting a number of different areas of society.
Blockchain will accelerate social changes by providing transparency and accountability frameworks that allow governments to provide more efficient services without sacrificing individual privacy. Blockchain technology is already affecting social norms by causing us to question whether or not users of blockchain should be identified more than users of other technologies.
It's important to note that blockchain will affect the way governments are run and may cause governments around the world to change drastically as blockchain begins replacing governmental structures that are currently in place.
Blockchain Will Reshape Economic Systems
Blockchain technology will also have a dramatic effect on the world economy. It will allow for more decentralized systems that can be tailored to suit different people's needs, instead of having one-size-fits-all solutions imposed globally.
The blockchain is the perfect example of disruptive innovation, as it will allow blockchain users to create a more decentralized market, which could lead to the elimination of some blockchain intermediaries. In addition, because blockchain technology is open source and customizable to different needs, blockchain has the potential to reduce costs by cutting out middlemen and allowing for coordination between blockchain participants without any centralized organization in control.
Blockchain technology also has the potential to help blockchain entrepreneurs and blockchain companies by creating a more level playing field in blockchain funding. Through blockchain startups, blockchain companies could fund new projects without the need for centralized organizations such as venture capital firms that control blockchain investment funds.
Blockchain Will Disrupt 'Power Laws' In Economics
The advent of blockchain technology is also likely to disrupt 'power laws' in the blockchain. As blockchain technology is still new, blockchain users are likely to have more power over blockchain intermediaries because blockchain service providers have yet to reach their full potential.
Blockchain Will Change The Way People Exchange Information
Blockchain will also affect the way people exchange information by providing a high level of security for blockchain users. In addition, blockchain technology will allow blockchain transactions to take place without the need for blockchain users to exchange their names and personal information by creating a unique public identifier that blockchain participants in the blockchain network confirm.
Blockchain technology has also been compared to Napster, as while nobody owns blockchain technology, blockchain remains focused on exchanging peer-to-peer blockchain transactions, just as Napster focused on exchanging peer-to-peer music files. In blockchain technology's case, however, blockchain users have the advantage of being able to exchange blockchain assets without having to worry about the security risks that come from centralized organizations holding blockchain funds.
Blockchain technology can revolutionize society by making blockchain transactions more secure and efficient than ever before. Blockchain is still new, but blockchain users benefit from blockchain technology in many different ways. By providing transparency and accountability with blockchain technology, we can expect a number of social changes that affect how people exchange information as well as economic systems around the world!

The biggest advantage to blockchain is that it is a permissionless database. Thus, unlike Apple or Facebook, which control their databases, anyone can tap into this.
We are now going to see innovation accelerate since it is going to be easier to gain access to the data.
From the user standpoint, of course, they cannot be denied access to the database unlike the other platforms.

Democratizing access to platforms is what Web3 is all about. The thing that the "Jacks" of the world do not, and will not, understand

😂 the government surely don’t like blockchain because it’s against everything they are used to. “transparency”
Exactly! Some countries / governments are trying to regulate blockchain or completely forbid them. But I think it's a revolution they can't stop. Same with Web 3. It will come!
