According to Turchin's Ultrasociety and Harari's Sapiens, no. It's clear that we dominate the Earth by creating ever-larger fictional, social entities to protect Us from Them. The blockchain society was also established to defend against traditional finance. Although it's a global entity, its influence relies too heavily on funding from the very community it was meant to challenge. Unfortunately, we prioritize wealth and games over freedom. This process makes sense as a <evolutionary transition>, where individual humans function like organs within larger organisms, such as nation-states. While emigration and immigration are still possible, they are becoming the most reviled and attacked social actions. The social credit system in China and the anti-immigration policies in the US are working to seal off the superorganism, making it increasingly difficult to enter or leave. The liberal project of the global community and technocrats dream of facts-based cooperation are unable to stop the Big Integration.

You can find very interesting worldviews here on FC. What are the sources of your worldview? For @mishapushka the answer to the question "What is the world?" seems to be half-evolutionary, and half-simulation theory, but for the question "How to cooperate?" we have a dominant race. Erich von Daniken writings and Prometheus movie from the Alien series come to my mind, too. I can be wrong about all of that.

I'm no longer religious, but I recall that one of the major issues I had back then was God's silence. Whenever someone said "God is speaking to us," it always turned out to be just a figure of speech. So, I'm not surprised that five chatbots claiming to be Jesus Christ are popular and many people chat with them. To clarify, four were created by a California software company, and one by a South Korean religious group. With Christianity being such a successful religion, the LLM-based messages from Jesus will inevitably conflict with other messages claiming the same absolute authority. There are 45,000 different Christian Churches. Creating a Jesus chatbot is way easier than establishing a new Christian community, even today, and it will become even easier in the future. In my opinion, we can expect millions of them to be developed and influence religious culture in the coming decades. Is this good or bad for the religion? I don't know. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-02987-9

Imagine individual projects and entire blockchain economies working together, with each other's efforts AND private decentralized currencies backing each other up. Look around - the idea of crypto freedom is slipping away fast, hijacked by massive investments from venture capitalists, corporations, and governments. Don't be naive - it's a blatant attempt to re-centralize control! They can strip it away in an instant, as Justin Sun's recent experience shows. But there's still a way out. We can restore our freedom if we develop the right technology. /cobuild might be the solution we've been longing for. Let's give it a chance!

In Gaza, Western kids watch the ultimate live Hunger Games, witnessing their fathers either cheer on the genocide or cower in fear. We are the last liberal generation. Cultural transfer is not possible anymore.
