i’m going to assume that you have seen the hunger games and under that film and where it fits into a potential dystopian vision of a future world and then ask you to consider maybe a potential of that as reality for a moment.
. .. i’m asking you to immerse yourself in an idea for a moment.
i’ve always had an interest in how art imitates life and the other way around, stories and storytelling have had a profound effect on me and i’m sure every other human that has ever lived on planet earth.
it’s our life blood to communicate to each other, share stories and experiences and cross reference, reinforce each other and subject and add to it with our life vectors, how it panned out for us and the circumstances that brought us to a similar point.
at times i have glances of a potential world like hunger games except the entries are governed by what cryptocurrency you have in your digital wallets with your wallet being your identification in the passing through zones.
the world has put up physical borders around the world taking cues from the american biff tanner and his illusions of country level security from nearby neighbours.
we have standalone internets connected to the big pipes of the world, each country has their own internet and we have state by state and street by street micro cells
we had to have those as a cache buffer from the constant barrage of state designed next generation AI ddos attacks aimed solely at the older technology that was gradually phased out that was build in other nations.
all technology now is country specific, you use the technology of the country you live in, everything is hardware level deep packet inspected because on a ruleset that the local state and wide government of your zone implements, your digital id and wallet are cross linked.
to travel and traverse you now have to have certain access levels, hold a level of value in certain crypto currencies and shares in a rounded, active lifestyle driven by the work you do in society, your numbers literally provide the level of lifestyle you live.
entertainment has been automated, it’s filtered and access is only allowed on the state of your crypto id and wallet — AI mashes together friends and family media together depending on their involvement in society and you receive a collection of videos and news to match your 23&me profile.
23&me was acquired by federal government for an undisclosed amount and is a profile that is automatically taken now at birth and fed into your crypto id and wallet, both formed when you are born but not brought into active force until of adult age or when your rep level reaches designation.
instead of immigration and border control we have state level country wide speedball X events, all sport types are covered in a daily olympics games inspired format, AI allows you pay for credits to see your favourite people play by replacing faces, graphics and b-roll.
fiat money was outlawed long ago, the government hacked all current blockchain technology using super computer AI systems, all current holders lost their digital id/wallets and were considered threats to nations, they were the first people to be pushed into the speedball X events.
the government blockchain initiative was rolled out by over 50 nations, davos was relabelled as D.A.R.Y.L and local drop in centres were put in place in all countries and labelled as a tourist activity just outside of each airport, now points and social involvement replace currency.
jobs are obsolete now, instead tasks are delegated based on your skill tree and you are provided a basic income based on your blockchain holdings and transportation has been limited because of climate change and pollution, food and water is rationed and delivered based on your output.
how do you define your reality when it comes to value. how do you create it, how do you hold on to it, is it possible to atomically swap analog real world legacy value into it’s digital equivalent, is your opinion relevant in a dynamically created blockchain ledger, how do you make sure that your records are not corruptible and is it possible to keep up?
if i was to ask you today what your idea of the hunger games are for the country you currently live in what would they be? i’m interested to hear you!

These are pretty important stuff. All you wrote in this article, is actually happening. Most people don't see it as it is, because commercial media will never tell you things that are important, and could change the way you think. That's why I support alternative media. Btw, I don't play hunger games

Well constructed post, if hunger games were to exist in my country I believe cryptocurrencies will be limited to the masses as goverenmt will embezzle almost all the coins and probably some people’s wallets/IDs will go missing. It will be a corruption at its peak especially when you said government hacking into all the citizens portfolios to take full control of it.

and its about to get nasty with the way the banks are paying mainstream media to project crypto as a dead and as in the hunger games eventual they will loose as the coins get mainstream , more and more organizations are accepting cryptos

If I saw that movie friend I liked everything and the discipline that exists in society except that they chose those who had to kill and that there was only one winner that I did not like the rest, it seems good what you want us to imagine would be fantastic sometimes practicing something from a movie in real life greetings

I haven't read nor seen hunger games, but I get the gist of it. This is an interesting way to think about it. What I find so interesting about our modern world is we are always told over and over again how Global and connected we are but this seems to be only for money and banks. When we as individuals want to cross borders it is not easier but harder than the old days and our money does not transfer easily and our interenet is also curbed and curtailed. When I am in the UK and return to USA suddenly all the thigns I could watch and access on my computer are not available. It is so frustrating.
I guess that is what is so good about crypto, as when I tried to open a uk bank acct as a us citizen, no way! I am hoping now with crypto that the need for such an account (Which I am apparently not allowed to have) even needs to exist anyway.
So , not sure this answers your question as I said I didn't see the movie, but does it sort of fit with the idea?

yeah kinda does and it was lose anyway, as for the internet access to cloud software we have gotten used to it's super interesting how that's happened. in the uk we have this 'tv license' and i see that changing soon to be a 'media license' in what we access, seeing how things have panned out so far i see a lot of these changes coming in very rapidly and we won't even have the power to change them.
the access to different countries is a major concern for me way before brexit was even announced as a thing, packaging us all together into the same boat. we have massive migration and people on the move than ever before it seems, at least that's what i hear about more because of the 'news' -- you only have to see things like cape town in south africa to see how potential climate problems will share the way our countries will function in the years to come.
blockchains will be a major addition to our lives to come and who has control over them is important -- if we are to live in a world of decentralization we need ourselves to form and adopt ways to live decentralized within them.

You should check out this movie called "In Time" which basically portrays a potential world very similar to the one you did here.

Hello excellent friend post that movie is phenomenal and it was quite a successful collection more 691 million dollars and the book was the best seller I think that writer is very good showed it in the whole world, compare or imagine at some point take this to the Real life would not be all bad because this writer was very fixed in Greek mythology and that discipline that they had, I think it would be good in a certain way, less on the side of sacrificing 7 young people and 7 girls I loved the post thanks for share with us successes in your projects greetings.
