Talking to folks many miles away, and knowing incredible crypto projects are helping people all across the world right now. 2018 will only bring more and better—this feels like promise. Like we could be moving again. Towards evolution. And not the devolution we've been governed by for so long.

Greed.

It almost sounds like a word from the 80's now.

And it is.

That's when the middle class started eroding to non-existence and one world turned it's back on another.

I've felt it. Lived it. Feel it still. We all breathe it. Maybe this is the apex. The rip before the dip... but what if this dip is about opening our view, hearts and souls? Seeing what's completely not working, the codes, nodes and governance that are missing or corrupt.

Flipping the transaction

Changing the conversation one block at a time.

Another year holds the promise of newness, but perhaps for the first time since the day I was born, such a mind-blowing potential for transition. Old paradigms will undoubtedly fail and fold. And some very new paradigms. Who can count the ICO's coming? But in this next calendar year, I see us looking outward. To a greater good. To some transference in the conversation.

From me... to us, it's the nature of the chain.

So many of us have been transformed by this year and we'll be able to change so many lives if we explore this right.

As we've begun fundraising for HardFork, I find my world expanding all the more. Five more days to spread the world and say hey in our HardFork Series DASH proposal... CLICK HERE to see it!
