Great post, thanks for sharing. When it comes to cryptocurrency, and UBI, I too am hopeful for the future. With decentralization as the backbone of blockchain and cryptocurrencies; I believe we will be able to transcend geographical, socioeconomic, and political boundaries surrounding "work."
I believe as a society, we need to redefine what 'work' means to us. I don't think work should be measured in productivity nor how much money one makes. Work should be measured in one's creativity and level of passion for said subject.
If most small businesses are started with less than $10,000, then UBI will give people a small safety net, in which they can pursue entrepreneurial activities, take risks, and enjoy more leisurely lifestyles.
As soon as PoS systems become universal, we will be able to scale entire third world countries, ushering in an age of micro, and macro, economic development. Of course, The Fed and other centralized agencies are unhappy and will probably try to derail the token/sharing economy.. however, this train has already taken off and it's gaining steam.
