There are millions out there who are digital nomads. It is a group that is growing at an incredible rate.

The Nation-State concept as we know it could end up a relic of the past.

I discuss some of the ideas in the video and how we might want to start looking at things with blockchain.

What a great collection of thoughts.

The one that hit me the hardest is the upside in crypto population that comes with the arrival of the third world. Even now, when I see the early adopters from those corners of the world, I am inspired. If I am lucky enough to receive a couple dollars in reward because of my generous supporters, it is nice. For someone who makes that amount in a day, you can imagine the effort they will put in and the freedom they could achieve from what I consider a cool hobby? Awesome. Also makes me feel good that my teeny tiny upvotes and donations can make a difference for someone around the world. I would have never met them if it were not for the blockchain either.

Great piece my friend!

Good thoughts. Like you've pointed out in your earlier vlogs, it could take the next 10 years but definite steps have to be taken in this regard.
