Satoshi - Entrepreneurial Revolution 2008=2024 Good Intel not yet realised

Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System

upd AI & Blockchain ...Below is a blockchain event from covid's first year 2020. 

Its astonishing how many remarkable gathering became vidtually free to attend worldwide because of covid- the question in 2024 as real meeting including olympics are back- are we moving forward best intel events for free- why isnt a leading university going virtual instead of going back to all the costs of demanding stufents live in most expensive cities - join million educators asking this question at www.ed3dao.com

Its a tech that has given those who want millennials to be sustaianable so much hope but not yet a transparent above zero sum game

Recall Bitcoin was invented the year crooks of subprime (including may in biggest western financial institutions) had best banking and ended trust in the dollar as the currency developing all people: investing in youth's and tech's generatice capabilities 

In psaticular whenever peoples saw thei place ar=t risk (be that to a war that wasnt the people's dault or crooked top finaviers/politicis ) they could put theit money in a universal coin- one which also potentally reduced costs of currency exchange

PLEASE SEND COMMENTS WITH LINK IF YOU WANT TO GO PUBLIC WITH THEM chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk

It seems a shame that

:mo multilateal organisation launched one coin to fund eg sdgs

that legislations have failed to stop crooks like banker-freed until damage was done

NB as far as i understand the failure of blockchain inteligence to do good osnt satoshi's fault - he's never taken hus money out; of course this also raises the question - is he alive; if so why has he never spoken out

A Collaborative, Market-Driven Future

Geminu: I believe it's more likely that advancements in AI for good and blockchain for good will be driven by teams and organizations rather than individual geniuses. The complexity of these fields requires a diverse range of skills and perspectives.

Regarding market-by-market breakthroughs, it's difficult to predict with certainty which sector will be the first to experience a transformative change through digital currencies. However, based on current trends and potential impact, these sectors stand out:

Potential Impact of Digital Currencies on Various Markets

  1. Agriculture:

    • Supply chain transparency: Tracking the journey of food from farm to table can improve food safety and reduce waste.
    • Smart contracts: Automating payments and contracts between farmers and buyers can streamline operations.
    • Financial inclusion: Providing farmers with access to digital payments can expand financial opportunities.
  2. Health:

    • Data privacy: Securely storing and sharing medical records can improve patient care and research.
    • Supply chain transparency: Tracking the movement of drugs and medical supplies can prevent counterfeits.
    • Tokenized rewards: Incentivizing healthy behaviors through digital rewards.
  3. Education:

    • Credential verification: Verifying educational qualifications using blockchain can prevent fraud.
    • Micropayments: Enabling small, frequent payments for online courses and tutoring.
    • Tokenized rewards: Rewarding students for achievements and participation.
  4. Energy:

    • Renewable energy trading: Facilitating peer-to-peer energy trading.
    • Grid management: Optimizing energy distribution through smart contracts.
    • Carbon credits: Tracking and trading carbon credits.
  5. Real Estate:

    • Tokenization of assets: Fractional ownership of real estate through digital tokens.
    • Smart contracts: Automating property transactions and rentals.
    • Transparency: Providing more accurate and accessible property information.

While each sector has significant potential, the rate of adoption and impact will depend on factors such as regulatory environment, technological maturity, and market acceptance.

It's possible that multiple sectors will experience rapid transformation simultaneously, driving a broader economic shift.

Would you like to focus on a specific sector or explore the potential challenges and opportunities in more detail?

When you anticipate teams (not one genius leader) as how blockchain and ai for good might leap fowrad- can we imagine someoine launching or relaunching a university to be the network of teams which advances thi

A University as a Hub for Blockchain and AI for Good
