Was einst am Rand des rechten Libertarismus gewesen war, ist jetzt in Washington der Mainstream. Grönland ist seit langem auf dem Radar der Krypto-Libertarier als Territorium, um den Traum „Netzwerkstaaten“ zu beginnen; Zufälligerweise, so wie ihr Geld Washington Politiker gefangen genommen hat, sprechen die USA jetzt davon, in es einzudringen.
Gibt es eine schädlichere Dynamik im Spiel? Wenn diejenigen, die glauben, dass Ihr Land im irreversiblen Niedergang ist, verantwortlich sind, könnten sie seinen Staat absichtlich verschlechtern, um ihren Standpunkt zu beweisen? Einige argumentieren, dass dies bereits passiert.
The Crypto-industry is using hundreds of millions of dollars to advance its agenda in Washington, that the US is in long-term decline and the alternative is new 'network state' territories around the world governed by business owners.

I think you’re onto something interesting that I haven’t heard about yet, but I can’t understand your thesis. Awkward phrasing.
This just seems more performative or a test of the waters as they already run the entire government, and it runs like crap
The whole “libertarian” angle is pretty stupid as I’m sure they will tie themselves up when you suggest a company that has the sole goal of crushing their monopolies, among the “rules for thee” mentality of all current political parties
Also, stay away from meme coins and CBDCs
Why has futureology suddenly become about how the world is going to become shadowrun in the near future?
Trump was talking about Greenland during his first presidency
holy fuck, I forgot about the crypto mines in Greenland. that’s a connection I had not made. shit
Why does the rest of the world need to allow these stages because the US is in decline? You want to turn your country into a libertarian cyberpunk mess, have at it, but leave the rest of us alone.
BTC is 99% hype.
Monero is literally better in every way, but BTC is where the hype is.
Besides that the only actual thing people use crypto for is the hope that the value will go up and someone else will be stuck holding the bag.
Funny how these crypto bros always see themselves as the right people to govern these new network states.
The US is already goverened by business owners. That’s how capitalism works. I don’t understand why they are lobbying to get what they already have.
Such a terrible idea, why do they think it’s good? Literally the dumbest idea for governance
Factory towns from the gilded age are about to get an update! Fuck that.
And it all could have been avoided if people used open source software instead of giving power hungry corporations all the power
Here is a really good podcast series on the network state if people want to learn more! Balaji Srinivasan and his cohort of peoples‘ ideas are absolutely fucked.

This was completely predicted by the movie „Network“.
It’s not just the US and they’ve already started. There’s California Forever, where they’re trying to start some Eco Utopia by stealing land from ranchers. There’s also Lieber Land, where they stole part of Croatia to set up their crypto based economy. Shit’s wild.
How come Crypto isn’t declared a weapon of mass destruction?
The rich will just amass more and more wealth. It accumulates much faster than those of us who earn moderate to low. The gap will only become bigger and bigger and we’ll force to live in whatever society they create.
I try not to think about it. I just need an open road and my motorcycle and some income and I’ll be happy.
This is techno feudalism these people would turn us all into slaves. I used to lie crypto, before I understood the way it’s being used by fascists.
