Cave art is not innovation, it was a method to communicate and a way to tell stories.  Roll Eyes  Also, Tesla invented all these technologies to fund his other experiments. <How do you buy all these expensive tools and materials, if you are not asking any money for the end result?>

People are definitely motivated by money, because it allows them to eat and pay for a roof over their heads. So without all of that, these innovations will not have been possible. <Artists and Entrepreneurs have to eat and sleep like the rest of us.>  Roll Eyes

Money is just a part of life What all we need is to live a satisfactory life and money isn't all to live a satisfactory life being poor with a good heart is better than being rich with bad intentions.It isn't necessary for us to do jobs which we don't want to do by killing our self respect and all it isn't necessary right what more we need is passion to do the job

People are very much motivated by money. They may say they aren't, but when it comes down to, it single individual will reference it in an argument they need to win. Basically, they may not be motivated by it, but if its around or its needing to be used, you won't see them demotivate.

This is true. People need money to survive a day to day life. It is not necessary that people will tell they do not meed money. More and more people are engaging into cryptocurrency because they see the potential of growing in cryptocurrency because they wanted to have more money. People are motivated by money.

People are very painful with money. they can say they are not, but when it's down now, it's alone and it's just a reference to an agreement that they must really win. Generally speaking, this can not be the right path through this, but if it is in front of it or it needs to act that you do not see it often.

In fact, if we want to think more deeply, money is only paper written with a certain nominal value and given interesting pictures. That is important, but not the most important thing to live

I agree, but it more better to say people are not ONLY motivated by money?
Money is a really effective motivator, but there are others (like satisfaction)

What you have said WAS true. Motivation to work doesnt involved money before, but its totally different today. When you say those people who has invented what we are using today example internet, smartphones, electricity, and etc. is all just for the pure passion of science, well thats correct, but when they found out that they can make a bunch of money out of it, then that makes it partially wrong. No wonder why government tends to butt-in when someone invented something useful in the future.
Now, lets apply this topic to ourselves on our daily living, and the REAL motives why we worked on something so hard. Lets say if you succeded in a field of your interests, its not just because it will boosts your morale and the pride of achieving something thats giving you motivation. But, behind that there is always money.

Everything has changed in todays era, what has been done before may not be necessarily applied today.
I guess its safe to say "  There are a lot of things that motivates a person, but money is always the secondary if not the primary purpose."

I always hear the argument for capitalism "B bb BUT people won't innovate without the profit motive" WRONG

Humans want to solve problems, create, and innovate, they do not need money to motivate them.  Cavemen were painting art 20,000 years ago without the desire of money.

True scientists like Tesla, he didn't care about money it was about the pursuit of science.

Capitalism does not cause innovation, most new technology is found by government programs like nasa (internet, smartphones, etc)

Depending on which side you look at, and indeed the desire to have something is one of the biggest motives in human life. At this time the majority of the desire can only be filled with money, different in the past, where technology is not as sophisticated and fast as this process

Interesting that you remind Tesla. He truly wished to give to people electricity for free, but his plan and career was destroyed by capitalist Edison who were selling the electricity in the final.
You see the number of such people as Tesla is very short. It's true that people run for innovation and modernisation, but in the most of cases this run is just to make the life easier. And actually all this innovation usually costs a lot, just like release of new Apple smartphone, which gets more and more expansive.

If we relate this to crypto, then money is definitely a motivating factor.

Development of decentralized exchanges and other decentralized applications (Open Bazaar for example) has been extremely slow throughout the last couple of years, and this is purely the result of less incentive to work on something that doesn't compensate. In most cases it's working for the good cause, which is to decentralize the crypto ecosystem, but if it's not generating you any income, you won't be going full at it. It will remain a side project that you every now and then allocate some time to.

I'm pretty sure that if decentralized exchanges were rewarding, the development and usage would be at an all time high a couple of years ago already. We right now would poop on all these KYC/AML hungry exchanges, but instead, we're still tied to them. Roll Eyes

Truth is that there is some people motivated with money and some that are not. So there are different motives for success in people, saying that it it is not motivated by money is true in some cases
Yes, i do agree that some are motivated with money and some are not. I also think it is a case to case basis.

but, of course we know until now, that however funds or money are still needed to develop problems and also innovation. otherwise there will never be anything we call ICO, Fundraise or whatever you call it.

1. The problem with socialism and other centralized systems is that innovators are at mercy of government officials, while under capitalism they have as money chances to convince investors as they want, or even find other ways of funding like crowdfunding or self-funding or loans.

2. The motivation argument is actually applied to workers. If you start giving away free stuff, a significant amount of population will just relax engage in leisure activities. This is why it was illegal in Soviet Union and other socialist countries to be unemployed.

People are not motivated solely by money, but many certainly are to varying degrees.  I am definitely.

indeed People are not motivated by money, because the price of all coins is decreasing, so people are not motivated to make money, if the price starts to rise pasti people will be motivated to find a lot of profit

People of the current time are motivating through money. All things improve, day by day, price is increasing, updating. To run around, to live a luxarious and comfortable life, everyone is running behind the money. And there are people who are not motive by money less comparatively.

This is mere theory. Weak theory for that matter.
Who are these Cavemen by the way? We were told are people who were  incapable of farming, building homes, mining etc Lifestyle can be influenced by diet and environment. They probably have the idea of building beautiful homes but lack the resources and the willpower.

How did he feed his family, pay his bill and survive.

I agree with this abit.
 Some say that modern science and technology  deep rooted in occultism. You just have to research to understand how. This probably explains why the big inventions come mostly from government and corporations funded projects/people?
The current technological trends seem to be predetermined. The progress is not very evolutionary.  These cool technologies could not be invented thousands of years ago and all of a sudden we began inventing them. I read that the goal is to transform our World into a virtual world (from Iron age to non-material/spirit world) and make us like gods



Free market/Capitalism does encourage innovation but it shouldn't be as fast and advanced as the current technological progress. *Something may be interfering.*  Just my opinion.
