Topic: Bitcoin's Utopian Future (Read 767 times)

Then we all went to the moon, fired all the governments, decriminalised pot, and had a massive smoke-fest on the dark side of the moon after spending 10 BTC on developing insta-terra-forming technologies to create breatheable atmospheres.

Planet Earth was moving into an unstable future massive industrialization coupled with explosive populations had rendered the future quite bleak in all honesty. The ultra rich where beginning to abuse power, including the money they had at their disposal. Prostitution was becoming rife, relationships on the brink, the elites created a globe wide housing bubble which they could pump and then dump depending on how they wanted to control the people of each corresponding country. Natural disasters seemed on the increase climate change inevitable, conspiracy theories started to run wild, people because individuals lost in desolation, apathetic and even distraught at how quickly to some, their so called perfect world was turning into a quagmire of war and economic conflict. People started to fight to the death over jobs, nothing was coming easy for anybody in spite of technology and advancements.

Out of what almost seemed the ashes of Civilization a group of Information Technology Gurus have designed a proof of work system they called Bitcoin, it relied on cryptography and the Internet to empower money into the hands of the people, individuals could now wield their own wealth create and destroy it at their disposal. A sense of Utopia is starting to build that these new found hero's could infact be leading the world into a Golden Age, something that hasn't been seen since Cleopatra ruled the Pyramids.
