Well i think the next big thing is going to be "social". Not business related. Not i control or influence "you".. The next big thing will be bigger than metaverse and defi but it won't be about making money. it will be about social change. The idea of the "social token" will be the biggest thing

Something designed to not per se make you "rich" but set you "free". People prefer freedom over riches. That's why people leave corporate high paying jobs and take lesser jobs for more freedom. As it's just that more valuable. So it's not about some dao.. structured business. It's about structures that set people free and don't enslave them under other similar systems.

i think rao paoul does a good job when he talks about the social token in this video

What i'm noticing now is people using bitcoinmyk.com and posting, coming in the doors who have always been looking for these type social tokens just were unable to articulate what they would look like and how they'd be designed. it's not even about bitcoin myk as this is just a natural evolutionary system that will emerge anyway. As decentralization and democracy will always have to exist as bedfellows. You can't have one without the other. So you can't have 1% of your network controling over 80% of it and expect any decentralization from that. It does not and will never work like that.

To expound on it a little further. if smart people like rao paoule believe community is everything. whether you taking a religion and rewarding people heaven or hell. whether you have billiosn of supporters like disney world and you create a token. Network effect is the holy grail. if you can't achieve it .. doesn't really matter why you can't or how you feel.

So let's use religion again and the network effect of billions of muslims and christans and jews or whatever, hindus. that is a very powerful and valuable and economical network because of those numbers. He uses ethereum as the go to. ethereum you can build many applications almost as many users as bitcoin. without the limitations of bitcoin.

makes sense but ethereum is at it's peak now mechanically. So first look at what networks can pull numbers in like that. you can't say hive can compete with ethereum that's ridiculous from a security protocol reason. So at best you can wrap tokens on hive.. what network can get billions of users besides religion?.. i don't like to use gaming because gaming can't do it because it's alot less gamers than religious fantatics.

the next thing is universal basic income. 80% of the globe would participate in that network. you not going to catch a person like me gaming so gaming is out. lol.or blogging i'm not a writer. so a big network effect needs to be a general purpose subject. that's why we make more sense than you all. thats why ethereum has more users and will always have more of a substantial network..

Not about how people feel. it's about logic and reason. that's just what it is. Disneyworld did not say we want to be part of some small niche network. Disneyworld said how do we touch the world and everyone i know likes disneyworld. Even teh grownups lol. Most people i know like the idea of basic income with the exception of a minority group of people who won't even matter in the next decade.

Now hive is a strange oddity place out of the scope of logic. However it's still a very very small place. Which presents a network problem i believe. So that doesn't really mean anything. Hive has to become this thing if it's ever to reach it's full potential.
