By Silk Road, I ain't refering to some Darknet trades or a black market but to the ancient silk path which connected all the continents like Europe, Africa & Asia. Or you can also compare it with the new silk road viz. Eurasian Land Bridge Railway which connects China, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Russia, Tehran, Germany, London & Madrid. Freight trains using this new silk road railway network is also helping in a lot of cultural exchanges.
Like freight train or marine ships, Blockchain also works on a fundamental infrastructure called internet and computing gadgets connected by it. Setting up of optical fiber cables all across land and under ocean is the actual material infrastructure to make the invisible internet service possible all across the world. People all over the world are now connected through this Silk road and make transactions and exchanges over it. Social networks like Steemit brings about the cultural exchanges.
So blockchain are akin to ancient Silk road. And as the name conveys, instead of silk, tons of blocks of chains are transported through it. These chains are used to make everyone captive and enslaved. Today everyone is virtually chained to some electronic gadget. The beauty of these chains are that they are invisible. So once chained, no one can cut it. This is like becoming a lifetime slave of it. Then we work for it to sustain this blockchain business.
It comes with fancy names like decentralized and borderless transactions. But it itself relies on centralized internet and respective governments. So all these talk of decentralization, anonymity etc. is a gimmick to enslave innocent people. Once everyone become slave to their gadget for life, world will be ruled by new robotic gadgets with advanced artificial intelligence. These will be more powerful & destructive. than the dreaded aliens. Interesting thing about this conspiracy is that unknowingly victim himself / herself is writing the script of this conspiracy. All conspirators themselves will become victim of it. It's like voluntarily committing suicide for the sake of deriving some pleasure out of it ...and that too on a massive scale! Only people who won't wear this chain of blocks to them will remain free.
Unless and until you understand the ultimate long-term effects of this blockchain technology, I'd suggest to keep distance from it. Yes, when you can live without it, then why not?
