influence =/= control. There has never been a system of money in the history of the world without outside influence. Even the US government can't stop outside influence on the economy. The goal (which has been achieved) is to remove CONTROL. In fiat currencies, the people who influence the economy can also shut it down if were to benefit them. (see: bank runs)

I know there are already companies trying to sell tokenization as a service for verification purposes (essentially turning real world items into NFTs traceable on the blockchain) to prevent knockoff products from circulating. Imagine a gucci purse that can be scanned with your smartphone via RFD. Tokenized assets for things like like drone verification that meet FAA standards (essentially a token that functions as a license plate) are already developed on-chain too. These technologies seem hugely relevant to the future, regardless to the price of any one token. Looking further forward, think about something like sanctions through the lens of crypto. Currently sanctions often face retaliation, but think about if a sanction came from not from a nation state, but from a crypto governance panel (DAO). How much less effective would it be for a nation to try to retaliate against a decentralized everywhere?

[@unlockwithjsr]

Blockchains are permissionless, no one can sanction you, a DAO is just a set of smart contracts to control token issuance for specific goals, and so is a niche application that does not control the blockchain

[@deep.space.12]

How to I demonstrate my ownership to have a physical product tokenized into the blockchain? Who gives them the authority to do the authentication? How to demonstrate a physical item is unique and authentic? Do you like, hash the item's quantum wave function?

How is bitcoin democratizing if you now need huge farms of computers that cost 15k a piece? That doesn't seem accessible at all. Genuine question here, I'm an EE student but I can't wrap my head around this part of it.

[@deep.space.12]

Those are miners, they get paid by processing transactions. Instead, look up how much it costs to actually write a piece of information/transaction into the blockchain (e.g. Gas in Ethereum). That'd be even more difficult to wrap your head around...

Cryptocurrency, as it exists now, does not function as an effective currency. It is too volatile to use as a store of value. Transaction speed is too slow for practical use, as is demonstrated by the lack of retailers that accept it. The amount of energy used per each transaction renders it unscalable. The hardware waste generated by it make the long term prospects for it very poor. Overall, this video seems to gloss over any real concerns in the pursuit of sensational coverage of the subject with absolutely no substance or real information.

[@aguven]

@@ivanosalazar Quick question for you. What is safe about fiat currency? It has no intrinsic value. Its value is constantly and intentionally being depreciated. Crypto and blockchain brings decentralized finance. It can not be manipulated by governments and banks, like the fiat money. If banks control the entirety of crypto-market then crypto is de-facto the same thing with fiat money.

@@aguven I agree, and I think that crypto specially coins that can not be printed as the fed wants or deflationary ones are way better than fiat, but what I am saying is that banks will evolve and they will hold cryptos for the majority of people.

Blockchain is a ledger, and a potentially effective one, but it is not a currency. I don't pay bills with bank statements. If I can't pay my bills in the same currency I get paid in, it's friction that requires an exchange through a regulated entity. We've had the ability to make a global currency for decades, and there are realistic reasons why we have not that blockchain enthusiasts continue to ignore.
