The incoming adoption wave combined with the collapsing structures of the West will be wild, and full of great opportunities as well!
Yeah, we are all gonna be over here zapping each other to buy groceries while the rest of the world continues to fall from grace.

Hehe, maybe!
But I also think most in here have a good shot at building something profitable through this, especially since the largest adoption wave often is all about implementing and propagating.
Thinking along these lines right now, maybe I should set up an agency again... But that would have to be very different in so many ways than what I did inside the failing states of Europistan! ;-)

Yes, I hope we can all make something profitable on here. That would be amazing.

Using SN as a base, yes!
But real earnings has to come from outside, simply onboarding local businesses should be doable for most :-)

I think we will seriously challenge Reddit within a decade. As bitcoin moons, so too will SN traffic, users, and territories.

Yeah. k00b's "story" post about incentives puts things in such simple terms.
"Behavior in human communities develops as a result of the incentives humans in the community are given, and existing online communities influence behavior by format, pseudo-reputation, gamification, and moderation. Basically their communities develop as a result of expression limits, rewards backed by nothing, and centralized control. My assumption with Stacker News is that Bitcoin fixes this by having users stake something other than pseudo-reputation, Bitcoin, and earn rewards that are worth something in the external world, Bitcoin."

Yep, and this is what I think most of us can learn a lot from, observing how they buidl, simply be part of it all the way!
