How important will blockchain be to the world's economy?

arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 19 hours ago
First off, it applies to all potential economic transactions globally. It eliminates the whole back room cost structure we are all familiar with and does so globally. That means it will become possible to buy a property in any country and have it all settle without fuss. With those costs evaporating, the demand for blockchain will make it all inevitable. This will be the new global standard for transnational security in business transactions. So it is incredibly important. It still takes a lot of market conditioning for folks tio become comfortable. . . *How important wi... more »

Decades ago, he stole a tree branch. Now he is the Durian King

arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 19 hours ago
[image: Decades ago, he stole a tree branch. Now he is the Durian King] Recall that this type of life is occuring globally as modern agricultural knowledge is been applied to almost any plant that may have a chance. Today it is possible for me to buy Durien and even Mangosteens as well at a reasonable price in Vancouver. That capacity to transport tons of produce makes all forms of food novelty a worthwhile premium product in the global market. This is a great story. *Decades ago, he stole a tree branch.

Trump’s Patriotism Vs. The New Anti-Americanism

arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 19 hours ago
How in hell is it possible to be political and also anti American? Yet the masters of the Democrats appear to be pushing such a narrative. So who are those masters? It should be impossible for a person raised in the USA to be properly Anti America, but it is certainly possible to be a paid shill.. Is is possible that the money supporting this and the actual guidance is coming to us through the CCP?

So many people have done so much to give us this opportunity to place this American flag on the surface. To me it was one of the prouder moments of my life, to b... more »
