RE: Tim Draper says Bitcoin could be bigger than the internet

Did you see his apperance on Tucker Carlson with the Bitcoin tie? :D
I think he is right. We did see in Finland that the Universal Basic Income failed. Of course it did. Its just more of the same. More debt. More taxation of those who work. And more "theft" or "free" money to those who don't. It wont work.

And right now, the entire system has a scapegoat. Cryptos. Let people create their own money. Let's start a whole new economic system.Lets redefine currencies. And then they (politicians and central banks) can look good and not drive us directly into the abyss.

I think they are going to let people go free very soon. Norwegian state TV just did a very balanced piece on norwegian free town Liberstad the other day. Why did they do that? They dont do stuff like that not thinking it through. They are going to let more and more people opt out. It will lift the pressure on the welfare state. When people with low paying jobs..people on welfare etc start earning money on cryptos for walking, running, writing, taking photos, driving, reading, reviewing..etc etc..they won't need welfare. And speaking of jobs..in a few years most people wont have the kind of jobs they have today. Robotics, AI, automation..Like Vitalik says;

Good comment. I think it is a representation of how people have been feeling for a long time now. They are tired of the rich getting richer, often off of their own backs. Bitcoin and by extension crypto lets people be in control of their own wealth. Where that leads we will soon find out, but I think it is coming. The genie is out of the bottle.
