As usual a reasonably well conceived post. The one point I might make is that Musk is already a fan of Crypto, (look at his connection to Doge Coin), I see the potential for a collaboration between Hive and Twitter. This could greatly speed up the transition to that financial system you spoke of while putting content ownership directly into the evolving system. Such a collaboration, I believe, is inevitable as blockchain continues to move forward and global finance evolves.
I know a lot of folks dream of total decentralization however human nature is such that there will always be a need for some level of centralization. We are certainly moving away from the old model of total centralization however I do not see any way in which we can ditch that element of the human condition entirely. Ancient Athens eventually realized that 'pure' democracy cannot survive once a population exceeds a certain size. This is why America is established as a democratically elected, representative Republic.
Despite this, I agree with your assessment here. It will certainly be interesting to see what emerges. I can only hope that the Hive community sees the potential I do and that our ecosystem will soon invade the Twittersphere.
Musk has no interesting in decentralization. His interest in DOGE is questionable in terms of how tangible it is. Perhaps he is serious about it as a payment option.
Nevertheless, he is full blown web 2.0 mindset. Crypto is a game to him. He even joked about not being able to find web 3.
He think it nothing more than a marketing term.
