I believe we will reach a day where people will realize that it was never about the State in itself but much more about mechanisms that control or define that state.
In other words I say this because there's seems to always be a need for a source of truth. We can call it anything but this need seems to be pretty much inevitable. Accounting (a source of truth) basically started civilization in Mesopotamia. We need a (several) source of truth. Bitcoin is clearly one very good source of truth, as we know.
The nation states were an original version of the source of truth. The real question in my view is HOW does that source of truth will look like in the future for different fields, including the nation state and politics.
I think Switzerland shows a good example for the current nation state model (because of their referendum models, etc) can look like. In other words I do think that in the next 50 years, new nation states models will be created/adapted and that the Swiss model could be a good idea in that sense.
But who knows, maybe the nation state will be completely abolished very quickly. I mean we are truly at that stage already, on an individual level any individual can in theory live stateless.
Everybody will be right. In the end, the medium is the message. We just have to build, to collaborate, in anything. Regardless of what it is. It's going to be fine. :)
