Here’s what will happen when blockchain goes mainstream:

- Money will move at the speed of light

- Basic financial services will be available to everyone with a phone, globally

- Crowdfunding will become the predominant capital formation mechanism for organizations

- Cryptocurrencies will become a major asset class for inflation hedging

- Marketplaces will be disintermediated by smart contracts, creating insanely efficient facilitation

- Creators will put their work directly on global, digital markets

- Influencers will connect and monetize with audiences directly using digital assets

- Finance and market efficiency will become predominantly a matter of computer science

- Human organization, starting with corporations, will move on-chain

- Digital content will move onto open, public, Internet-native markets

- Mechanism design, coalitional game theory, social choice, and zero knowledge will become much more widely studied fields

- Corporate treasuries will be converting to strategies based on deflationary assets

- Against all expectations, governments will become increasingly supportive of crypto over time

- All the world’s data will go on-chain

- Individuals will own their identities and their personal data online

- Digital jurisdictions will compete for citizens

...and there will be so much more, but that will be an awesome start.
