I interviewed Toni Lane Casserly of Coin Telegraph for our blog, and I thought that she had some really interesting & thought-provoking ideas on Bitcoin & world peace: "For the first time in our lives, we are actually able to define the way we think about politics, about logic, about money, about value… I saw this as a model for the next stage of the world, one that promotes both peace and a broader sense of equality. In doing so, I believe we can begin to create a more humanitarian planet who focuses on the success of the individual, while also building strong communities and cultures around Bitcoin or alternative systems of logic that can be controlled by people who are adding value, not by people who are using the system to manipulate others. With inventions like this, these inventions of abundance, the idea of world peace is not actually a dream but a very possible reality."I was wondering what people thought of her ideas on inventions like Bitcoin leading to the attainability of world peace. What do you think? Here's the full interview, if you're curious - click! |

When Bitcoin is primarily used by machines and they use the funds to wipe us out and replace us with androids, then we'll have world peace. Until then it'll change nothing at a primal level.

Money can't make world peace, it's just improving the economy system. wars and battles were never about money..

Agree. Peoples are too easily provoked, especially about religion. |

Agree. Peoples are too easily provoked, especially about religion. money like bitcoins can make peace in the world if they will be used in the right way, everything is possible while theres no too much greed from the people who own the biggest amounts of money |

It can't bring peace... But it can definitely help mitigate minor conflicts and doubts about money usage by big companies/governments.

Wars are mainly created by conflict of interests. But don't be fooled that big money have no part in war. Of course we fight for money. I need to remind everyone that America earned more money during War World II that in all years of existence before war combined. After WW2 there was the greatest period of prosperity in the history of US. And no, bitcoin can't end wars more like cause additional ones. |

But natural resources IS money... bitcoin is not some magical cure to all of the world's problems. It's silly to even contemplate that bitcoin could bring about world peace. |

"So long as there are men, there will be wars." -Albert Einstein
--
Well it clearly proves a point that as long as humans exists, there will be conflicts and whatnot, usually starting from ideologies, different disputes and conflicting ideas. Bitcoin has nothing to do with world peace, it's just a financial instrument that people can use to somehow free themselves from the oppression of the banks and the governments. Bitcoin is a tool, yes, but not a tool to save the world or help the world attain global peace.

Agree. Peoples are too easily provoked, especially about religion. its never been about religion either.. stop snorting the media stories.. they weakening your mind. in 1918-1925 britain and france took control of the middle east.. stealing all the oil. later america joined in... now the middle east has had enough of it, and want their land back. the only bit that has anything related to religion is the bit that stealing and trespassing is wrong. and so that is why media says its a religious war because the natives quote that stealing and trespassing is wrong.. media want people to concentrate on the religion and not the trespass/theft of natural resources. its like saying incest is a christian religious cause, simply because in the bible adam and eves kids went around fucking their cousins.. its like saying driveby's are caused by games like GTA.. its all an excuse to hide the true cause |

Since the distribution of bitcoin is more unfair than any other currency it is more likely to create more wars. It is a pure rich get richer scheme and someday the poor regions of the world have had enough of it.

(fiat) but commodities, assets, natural resources can be classed as currency.. not money |

Agree. Peoples are too easily provoked, especially about religion.
I agree a little bit about the religion part. Remember the times when the Christians are battling against the Muslims in the so-called "Holy Crusade"? They are fighting for their faith, when in reality they can still be living side by side and respect each other's faith. Utter nonsense in today's standards, but it is written in history. Nowadays, faith is almost set aside as being one of the reasons of a war. The most reasons for a war to break are money, territory, and resources. If you want to survive, you need to have territory and resources, and to accommodate a nation's growing population, you must either reduce the supplies you give to your citizens or you find something in which you can gather more resources to cater your citizen's needs, and that's one of the reasons I can think of why nations turn to war. |

Do you believe that there is one? the distribution is not the fault of the protocol. its the fault of users handing the funds to central parties (exchanges) who then reach a point where they get so greedy they fake a hack and keep it.. no protocol can stop greed |

In answer to the OP - no! I doubt we'll ever have world peace. Not in my lifetime any way. There are too many violent groups of people fighting for power & too many lunatics seduced by religion, false prophets & God's. The world is a mess & that's one thing that bitcoin (money) won't be able to change.

No, I think that bitcoin can bring about financial freedom.
World peace is something else entirely, and does not depend on material things or finances.
The main reasons for the wars in history were completely different: the fight for the territory of others, ideological conflicts or religious / racial hatred.
I don't think that bitcoin can help with that.
