This is the most important question for the next decade
Dear Followers,
The Spirit of Crypto publication is all about where technology meets Spirituality in the coming technological era.
Without Spirituality, the accelerating technological advancements can become without a soul, ethical bedding and moral direction. Without this human aspect, technology can start to control our daily lives, and become a means of control for leaders with mal-intent.
Looking back in the last decade, I find 3 keywords that dominated this timeframe; Technology, Data and Sustainability.
Apple iPhone 4 was released in 2010 and Steve Jobs died a year later. Its the century of whistleblowers like Snowden and Christopher Wylie bringing Cambridge Analytica to its knees in the biggest data-hack of the century. We will never know if this practice of targeted dark ads has put the Donal Trump in power in 2016.
And it is also very much the century of increasing attention for sustainability targets with the Paris Climate accord as the climax of 174 states wishing for the earth to cool down.
When we slowly open the curtain of the next decade, we can already see the 4th part of the Industrial Revolution setting itself in position on our world stage. This revolution will blur the boundaries between the physical, digital, and biological worlds. Key players will be Artificial Intelligence, The Internet of Things, Quantum Computing, Genetic Engineering and Robotics.
But here is the spoiler alert; New Technology comes with a promise and a price.
The core question for the next decade is this; Will the 4th Industrial revolution lead to a world where humans will serve technology, or technology will serve humans and will clear the path to make us even better humans?
I realize this is a huge meta-question, and the next 10 years will tell. I love to think and write about this tech-driven future, and how we humans can stay top of the game. How to do this? For the answer, we need to look into the promise of the movement of decentralization. Since it offers the opportunity to keep the power of all those innovations and gifts of technology in the hands of the people. And here is where that power belongs.
I will continue to write about this very crucial topic in 2020 and hopefully bring as much value in doing so to you as I can. By bringing insights, refreshing points of view, information and updates about the world of Crypto and Bitcoin.
In this light, some of my last stories of this decade are about the rise of Bitcoin (BTC) and why the revolution of money is here to stay.
