- RamblingCTO 4y ago* not yet
- atemerev 4y agoWell, eventually either the governments will survive, or crypto will. Governments (as nation states) exist longer than crypto, but they have their share of problems as of lately.
- qsort 4y agoAre you seriously trying to imply that Bitcoin has a greater chance of survival than the concept of a nation state? Is this a real opinion you're holding in your head?
- atemerev 4y agoThe concept of a nation state exists for around 300 years, and currently in a crisis. Crypto exists for 15 years (also currently in a crisis, to be fair). I think both governments and crypto will survive somehow, but not in their current forms. There might be distributed states, corporate states, fiat states, confederations etc; the “nation” aspect of the nation-state will not survive too long in my opinion (i.e. some people who are alive now will see the end of nation-states). Crypto will be transformed too, perhaps becoming more utilitarian and less reliant on competitive adversarial selection. This is all speculative, of course, but I have seen the fall of the Soviet system, and I am well aware that forms of government are not eternal. tl;dr but yes. Crypto of the future will look more or less similar to the crypto of today. Governments of the future will look nothing like today’s nation-states.

- atemerev 4y agoWell, I am old enough to remember the cryptowinters of 2015, 2018, and early 2020. Not the first, not the last. BTC/USD is still around 22,000, which looks very much not zero to me.
