I have a dream. I have a dream that humankind finally mastered its existence as infinite beings. Kind. And generous. Able to handle freedom. When we allow the idea of web3, we have to take a dear look at how ready this humankind is for freedom. How willing is every single knot of this potentially utopian web to take over their lives... to really own it. When you ask me: I dreamt this dream for a very long time. I mean think of it! A decentralized, self-sustaining living. Connected. In tune to (our) nature. I mean, I dream of this way beyond tech. But the tech possibilities come in handy. In my eyes, we are staring at the dazzling outline of a truly self-organizing system. There are questions we have to answer ourselves, though, and everyone willing to step into it. It's about keeping privacy transparent. It's a matter of trusting the anonymity. Who Are the People and Which Intentions Are Set? Is it peace? Or is it a mere hunger for an anonymous might shift? Is it about making anything that makes life lively and accessible to anyone? Or is it just another veil, keeping masses busy and confused in complexity whilst preaching shortage behind the scene of abundance. And again, only an elite, a given amount of initiated and (tech and information-wise) privileged elite, hold the strings tight. A new elite though... well, maybe. It clearly is a tightrope walk. Holy grail and holy sh*t. Where does the pendulum swing? Coders and users will both always be human (I guess). Let us have a short excursion to 20th-century economics. There was this guy dreaming of free markets where the invisible hand will sort it all. He was dreaming of the wealth of nations. Not many people who like to imply that Adam Smith got it all wrong read the book he wrote BEFORE he introduced his idea of the wealth of nations. He has adorably been pointing out that empathy is the key to life. He made it quite clear that it’s the moral sentiments - let me call it the intention, simplified - on which behalf we are thinking and acting is essential. And to be conscious about what is going on inside of us. So Go Ahead! And Ask the Questions That Matter: Are we ready to be the change we want to see in the world? Are you ready for freedom? Do you really want this? Think for yourself. Be aware. Own your life. And create it. How free are you now? Really! Look into you. Now. What are your deepest truest intentions? And be freaking honest. Otherwise, we'll take the leap to a web2 revisited. No tech will ever save us. But the opportunities look bright. Anything goes.
Let's make it paradise then.
