The Technological War: Distraction and Opportunity in the Bitcoin World

[zenaku]

Nobody gives a flying f**k about what you propose. No government in the world is going to legalize BTC/crypto without KYC.
The "technological war" has nothing to do with Bitcoin/crypto. There is a cyber security war between Russia/China/North Korea and the western countries, but nobody of the two sides in this war is weaponizing blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies.
What do you mean by "to decrypt the price of BTC"? I guess that you think that the crypto markets are manipulated by the whales.
This might be true, but there's not enough evidence to prove such claim. Do you really think that mass crypto education would solve the problem of market manipulation? I don't think so.

You're a bastard anarchist.

[zenaku]

I believe the new war is technological; what we are seeing is a distraction, a smokescreen to divert our attention, so we don't realize the technological war. Whoever manages to decrypt the price of BTC, they have won automatically. A few (multinational) guys conveniently moving whales, you lose, I win but I give you a bonus. And if that's the case, I propose the legalization of BTC (WITHOUT KYC), open discussion from the educational system; we will teach all subjects on a laptop with complex algorithms to pass the subjects. That would be an example. BTC has already become the best long-term investment asset. Adoption has to happen; it is necessary; it would be a transfer of power from the old with little technological knowledge to the adults/young people who are tired of receiving crumbs from the pie. What's truly interesting is that in every war, there are casualties. Who will be the future sell?

I agree that the tech war is an important aspect of world affairs, and it's easy to get distracted by the noise while the real battle is taking place behind the scenes.
 The concept of cracking the price of BTC  to win this war is intriguing, and  raises questions about the role of cryptocurrencies in  future financial and power trends.
 The idea of ​​legalizing BTC without KYC (Know Your Customer) regulation is intriguing, as it could  democratize access to the financial system and create a more level playing field.
 Integrating complex algorithms and BTC education into the education system could be a game changer, especially when it comes to preparing the next generation for a world where technology and finance are increasingly intertwined.
  The idea that BTC has become the best long-term investment asset is currently debated, but there's no denying that it has sparked a global debate about the future of money and power.
 Your comment about the transfer of power from older people to younger people is particularly insightful because it highlights the potential of technological advances to break down traditional hierarchical structures and create new opportunities for those  willing to adapt and learn.
 The question of who will be the future rulers is troubling because it implies that there will be winners and losers in this technology war.
 It reminds us that we must recognize the consequences of our actions and strive to build a more fair and equal society in which the benefits of technological advances reach everyone.

Your response is very sensible and accurate.
I have never stopped to think about who will be the leaders of tomorrow; the people will have to know how to choose.

These days, I am planning to start writing the first proposal for a PhD degree, so I looked at the academic programs of universities, and it is really bad. Some of the finer specializations and sub-disciplines are being taught at the bachelor’s or master’s level, so this kind of education will not change anything. If you teach students about Bitcoin and they have a certificate about Bitcoin, it will not change. One thing, students must include the basic concepts in economics, and Bitcoin is one of the solutions, but they must know how the economy works first.

No need to teach bitcoin, that's not necessary. I mean:
In school, they should teach all subjects relating to a computer.
Example: this is an addition, within a mathematical operation used to understand a process.
In chemistry, this is silicon, what is it used for? to encapsulate a diode.
This is the internet, it is used for communication.
That kind of education, which ultimately aims at blockchain, and then at bitcoin.

Day by day we keep hearing news about what some other people think concerning bitcoin, how they have seen it as a digital means of exchange as well as how some already have tagged it a means of making fraud and financial manipulations by whales, everything differently keeps popping up and we are now having a means to regulate them because we are dealing with social media, with what we have already on group with bitcoin, there's no revolutionary quest or war against the existence of bitcoin to other currencies and there were no casualties, what we are having currently is bitcoin and nothing more, this will still be more relevant in years to come as we haven't seen anything to serve more better than bitcoin has did in digital economy.

I think the people who die are the ones who don't know how to use the coins, they are naive and unsuspecting.

There are many wars going on in the world, it's not all one process with one attribute. For instance, there's Russia's war against Ukraine, my country, and while technologies play a large role in it, it's not the kind of war the op seems to refer to.
If we're talking about the price of Bitcoin, there's nothing to decrypt here because it's not following any algorithm. Bitcoin's price is affected by global events, draft legislation, announcements by influential people, etc., and that all can't be predicted in advance.
Bitcoin is already largely legal (although it depends on a country), and it's a part of educational system in some places (like France).
But in general, I wouldn't call it a war while we live in the world where actual wars with people dying every day are still going on.

The technology I'm referring to isn't just Bitcoin, it's anything that relies on rare earth elements. A transistor, a diode, anything involving a processor. So the technology will be in the hands of those who have those rare earths...

It's only one side of the picture that you've talked about but it's not that easy to decrypt the price of BTc otherwise people would have easily done that and the results would have favoured them. BTc is not predictable especially after the recent incidence of BTCs performance after halving we have seen that the market is so volatile and unpredictable.

There are some unknown factors that are controlling the prices of BTc along with other altcoins and they are still unknown.

As far as I understand Bitcoin has already become very popular and expanding in terms of technology so no country can control Bitcoin but this technological war will not spread too much. Bitcoin will continue to advance in terms of technology even if it is banned. Technology will never happen past wars and people's future is getting better with bitcoin investment. Bitcoin's privacy is further enhancing its features.

[kotajikikox]

Bitcoin will continue to advance in terms of technology even if it is banned.

It’s true that even if a government bans bitcoin in their country, it will continue to advance and flourish but this doesn’t mean that it will have no consequences

The citizens of that country would have a harder time accessing bitcoin or maybe they wouldn’t be able to at all. They may even face such charges from the country if proven that they have been involved in such activities relating to cryptocurrencies or specifically bitcoin.

I say it depends on the school type. Usually, the private ones are all-around. It can also depend on the educational stage. Usually, a more complex subjects like Computers are usually taught in high school but most of the times in college, though you need to pick this course manually because there are different courses offered in this stage.

Even if there is a computer subject, BTC and Blockchain might still not be covered with that because they are already on a different scale. This is why there are specific courses offered if one wants to learn them. If no one will teach BTC, then who will do it? I believe we still have a less number of teachers about it, so we need more.

Countries, through multinationals (big tech companies), when they discover how to operate Bitcoin and win most of the time, will have access to a market that will grow their money and power, bringing more money to the national budget. That’s what I mean.

If you read the news, there are a few countries that have "adopted" Bitcoin, although with specific requirements. 

If a tech company does excellently with BTC (mining or trading), the state will collect good taxes from it.

Every transaction we do on a cryptocurrency marketplace or exchange earns tax revenue for my nation, Indonesia. But I think that is not fair.

1.

BTC has already become the best long-term investment asset. Adoption has to happen; it is necessary; it would be a transfer of power from the old with little technological knowledge to the adults/young people who are tired of receiving crumbs from the pie.

2.

I'm not saying the education system should be cryptographic or something difficult. I'm saying it should be in virtual environments so that the youngest truly understand how computing works and new paths are opened up.

3.

Example: this is an addition, within a mathematical operation used to understand a process. In chemistry, this is silicon, what is it used for? to encapsulate a diode. This is the internet, it is used for communication. That kind of education, which ultimately aims at blockchain, and then at bitcoin.

Your thoughts and replies on education are ambiguous. Bitcoin education comes first, then computing systems, and then electrical systems. With the exception of Bitcoin, all of the subjects that you listed are already covered in our schools and colleges. People might just participate in a course online to learn more about it.
