Steps to Make Utopia Come True

Under construction:

I. Methods of Building Small, Visible Pockets of Utopia

II. Methods of Aggregating Pockets of Utopia

Topics also include:

How to create natural, safe, and direct means of sociability with others, both one to one, and ‘flow to group’ mechanisms, where processes foster mutual trust and inhibit misuse.

Additional steps, not limited to software solutions, to protect the freedom of thought in privacy, the right of general privacy from unknown persons/entities, and freedom from obstructions of reasonable, non-violent, transcribed public expression. The increasing inroads to privacy implied by advances in the technology of ‘augmented reality’ (AR), and the need to consider guidelines within a Realistic Utopia and call for legal safeguards nationally before its widespread diffusion.

The question of money; the suitability of digital currencies as a means of de-incentivizing financial abuse. Lessened reliance upon financial intermediaries, pooled or managed funds, and complex legal structures. Smart contracts and decentralized finance as means by which funds set aside can be held by the contributing individuals, with transactions for the group preset to a party by those individuals. The possibility of blockchain failure by unforeseen advances in technology, and the need for informational acuity in Realistic Utopia.
