Looking back from 2010 and as we approach the precipitous of the 2020s, it's incredible how many predictions have become reality.
Decentralized ledgers and virtual reality have exceeded expectations(in my opinion), while corruption has caused a decline in centralized services, while unbacked currencies faced destabilization. Not to mention the ongoing challenges of global pandemics continue to impact us.
But what really fascinates me are the unexpected trends and surprises that caught us off guard. Despite some of us being ahead of the curve, there are always unforeseen shifts that shape our world. So, I'm curious: what has truly surprised you?
For me, it was the rapid challenges faced by the US Dollar. As someone skeptical of fractional reserve banking, I expected issues to arise, but not this quickly. Back when Bitcoin gained popularity, many of us thought these problems would surface around 2030 or 2040. It's remarkable how events have accelerated, challenging our expectations.
I'd love to hear from all of you. What unexpected trends or surprises have amazed and astonished you during this transformative time?
