RE: Don Tapscott : The Blockchain Revolution
It would take a long time to happen, for sure. I've mentioned it to a couple of friends, and they just laughed and called me an idiot. People get locked-in mentally to a system, as bad as that system may be. Of course, there weren't really many other options until the Blockchain was developed.
It's true, the thing is, I don't think major changes take many people to implement. New paradigms seem to saturate the masses almost unknowingly. Things often become part of everyone's daily lives without them really making a conscious decision to adopt them. It only takes a decent motivated group to solidify a status quo.
Yep, there's truth in that. Most people just do what others around them are doing. They even tend to think whatever most others think. If everyone would think for themselves, most of us would probably arrive at the same conclusion, at least as far as government. Most people know that there's major problems with government, but they wrongly believe that they can vote their way out of it. The system itself is the problem.
