Under the old model, @jongolson, it absolutely are utopian thoughts. Of course, we have something on here names utopian.io...perhaps we arent too far off the mark. Or, at least, we arent the only ones thinking this way.
Abundance is coming since the Internet came to money. Anything the Internet touches it copies and multiplies. It did it with information, communication, music, and video. Now it is time for money to experience the same thing. As we progress along, not only will the value of the tokens we acquire increase (some at least, there will be duds in there), we are also going to see the number of tokens we get on a regular basis increase also. There are many that are starting to emerge in cryptocurrency 2.0. This means people can acquire them.
What needs to take place is the maturity of humanity. We are going to see some rebellion against this concept, especially by the existing power centers. Fortunately, they cannot stand up to the force of blockchain. Yet as individuals, we need to change our thinking from one of scarcity to abundance. This means operating at a higher level, one not based upon competition and combat. There is no need to be degrading or confrontational. There is more there than people realize.
Oh absolutely. You see it main stream media, constantly trashing crypto. But you just need to dig a little to find out what they are trying to do because, let's be honest, the existing powers see crypto as a threat to their control and cash flow lol
Zuckerberg just blasted it by banning any advertising related to it.
To me, this just proves that he realizes that crypto can eat his lunch. The entire model that he is operating under is passe...
