I have no doubt that eventually all states and the federal government will dig into Crypto, nor that the more they get involved the more onerous dealing with Crypto will become.
Oh yes, and what if like insurance you have to meet the rules and regulations of EACH SEPARATE STATE.

There will be ZERO privacy, unless you go off the grid. Every penny you spend, & every web site you visit, every post you write, all of it will be watched by computers. Data mining will ID you as a potential tax evader, or political threat.

Camera's everywhere too...no place to hide, & Web3 will facilitate it all.

The Amish are looking wiser to me with each passing day....the way they shun technology...it's like they've been to the future, then came back.

We will all become slaves to technolgy, & a small group of Elites who control it. Step out of line, & they take your crypto, turn off your power, your cell phone connection, your ability to buy anything (like food) & send a drone to eliminate you...just a matter of when we'll all be digitaly controlled by 0's & 1's.



Can't rep you more and duh, this is all part of the Great Reset plan.

Just curious, how you gonna go off the grid, if there will be no cash? Full homesteading? Same state already imposed tax on privately owned water wells. As example, how will you escape something like that? Giving them foot in the door to keep fining you and, eventually, ending in armed people at your gate?

They will NEVER EVER get rid of physical cash! Corruption relies on it too heavily, with any kind of crypto, there is a transaction trail.

They are sucking younger people into the digital age, so they become reliant upon it.

The gov't knows where they are, where they've been, & AI will be able to preduct where they are likely to go next.

Gov't knows what they buy (paypal & venmo), who they buy it from, & who they pay.

This is how law enforcement catches a lot of criminals...using their cell phone locations & records. Smart criminals use burner phones, & get others to buy the phones for them using cash.

Washington using blockchain tech will just speed up total gov't control over its residents. People earning a living using the gig economy will be flushed out and have to pay taxes (payroll+income) on a lot of income that is not currently being seen by gov't.

I see almost all technology as bad now because it allows a very few people to control the masses...digitally.

Cryptocurrency system using body activity data

Patent 2020 666 Application filed by Microsoft Technology Licensing, Llc on 2019-06-20

https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2020060606A1/en

Human body activity associated with a task provided to a user may be used in a mining process of a cryptocurrency system. A server may provide a task to a device of a user which is communicatively coupled to the server. A sensor communicatively coupled to or comprised in the device of the user may sense body activity of the user. Body activity data may be generated based on the sensed body activity of the user. The cryptocurrency system communicatively coupled to the device of the user may verify if the body activity data satisfies one or more conditions set by the cryptocurrency system, and award cryptocurrency to the user whose body activity data is verified.



Quantum-dot tattoos hold vaccination record

Dec. 18, 2019

Keeping track of a child’s shots could be so much easier with technology invented by a new Rice University professor and his colleagues.

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation came to us and said, ‘Hey, we have a real problem — knowing who’s vaccinated,’” said McHugh, who was recruited to join Rice with funding from the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas. “They said, ‘We go on vaccination campaigns where people get into Hummers, drive to a rural village, set up a tent and start immunizing people, but they don’t always know who’s been immunized before and what vaccines are still needed.”



Here’s what travelling could be like after COVID-19

There will be a shift to touchless travel and a new health safety regime, supported by digital tools such as the Known Traveller Digital Identity initiative.
