Yesterday I was away from this social media 2.0 that I'm using heavily every day. Met with a few friends and spent the whole day outside. We had a beautiful weather in here and it would have been a pity to spend it inside. We talked all kind of topics, from crypto to life goals, cars, women and everything in between.
One of the guys that were there was somehow in crypto as well, he actually bought two ETH with Revolut a few months back, and I explained him that these are not really ETH, what he's holding because he can't transfer them and that they're not cryptos on a blockchain. He asked me what I do for a living, since I'm not your usual working type of guy and how long do I plan on staying unemployed.
I've explained a bit to him about the crypto rewarding social medias that we are using every day and the financial opportunities that these can offer and also said to him that I plan on being unemployed for the rest of my life.
Getting back to a regular job is the last thing I would do honestly, and if the situation asks for it I will probably do that, but after four years of living free of the 9 to 5, or however you wanna call it, I feel like I put much more value on my free time than on the safety a job can provide, although that's disputable as well, and I also strongly believe that by the time I'll get to retirement, pensions will no longer make any sense.
I usually don't talk too much in real life, while on my regular online spending days, so yesterday I had a blast outside, but at some point I was thinking what if our words and ideas would be monetized, what if some sort of AI would collect valuable stuff getting out of our moths and brains, tokenize it and reward us? Wait, we already have something similar and it doesn't even involve AI.
We have Hive, Publish0x and noise.cash. There are probably some other crypto rewarding social medias as well, but these are the ones that I am familiar with, using quite often and the ones that contributed to my personal finances during my personal real life bear market a lot. I couldn't even envision such opportunities ten years ago. Although I do have rich imagination.
Tokenizing words, ideas and own personal art is possible, and we somehow got used with it to the point that we're taking it for granted. Not many are aware of it though and it's just a matter of time until they will, but the future of the tokenization of everything is being created as we speak.
Leofinance is great and I confess that the rewards I got from here helped a lot, but when you think of project blank you realize the greatness hasn't even revealed itself in full glory. The snack type of content as some Leofinance user called it in one post I read recently is a core part of the social media for the WEB 3.0.
But what makes our snackable content better than facebook's and twitter's? An integrated tokenized economy offering its users the ability to tokenize thoughts, words and personal expressions of art. Being able to earn tokens through rewards for your thoughts and ideas, pictures, music and whatever forms of art you're a master of, is what I call proof of brain.
As you can probably see for yourselves, on Hive, Leofinance, noise.cash, Publish0x and whatever similar platform you're using, online garbage no longer has value and it won't earn anyone anything anymore. The good old times of Steemit have long been vanished and you really have to put something on the table to get rewarded. In retrospect, it was inevitable.
These types of social medias are open for everyone to contribute with whatever content one likes to share in this new world, but there's no guarantee the content will be accepted and rewarded. Earning tokens is still an outcome that relies upon your followers and their appreciation towards your online activity. Simply delivering doesn't work and it's great that it works this way.
Blockchain technology is a marvelous piece of engineering and it would be a pity to have it used by default, simply milking it and not putting any value on this proof of brain that I emphasize a lot. While sharing smart ideas and insights with the world, on twitter for example, will earn you likes and followers and online recognition, but on other types of social medias it might earn you a living, or at least provide to that.
The world of diplomas is gradually coming to an end. Proof of brain is what's getting people to get paid and create the gaps between the wealthy and not so wealthy and I'm not referring in here solely to the social medias I was mentioning above, but to many other types of work, or lets say contributions to the world. A welder with great ideas might be able to earn more than a bad doctor in a couple of decades, or even less. A paper in itself has no intrinsic value and will become obsolete sooner than later.
Have you thought about that?... Wish you a great day people and see you to the next one.
Thanks for attention,
Adrian
