The road to caring

So, the aforementioned conditions explain why when a Venezuelan blogger gets some coins —in whatever platform—, he often withdraws them very fast. However, we must realize that if this is the only treatment of our crypto-economy, our assets devaluate unavoidably.

But I have noticed that it is not only the Venezuelans or other oppressed peoples that behave like that. Many others with better conditions manage their earnings the same way and, in their case, not necessarily pushed by the urgencies of their environments.

It's a lack of culture, a lack of a healthy financial culture, that could benefit us and every other member of our virtual ecosystem. As I say often, the success and stability of these platforms are our own success and stability.

In the Venezuelan case, I'm trying to develop with some friends of the International Esperanto Community (a niche where I belong) an initiative that could start the seeding toward that kind of culture, which would help the Venezuelan crypto-bloggers and their esperantist colleagues around the world.

With my friend @mattgroening, I'll be building a Tutmonda Esperanta Kripto-Akademio (Worldwide Esperanto Crypto-Academy) on these very ideals. That great initiative came from Matt.

Materializing freedom

Following the example of my German friend (the one of the sweets), who convinced some businessmen to accept cryptocurrencies, I plan to realize some events to materialize the benefits of this free economy, so that people could see it is a real, factual and present opportunity. We'll give learning workshops, art performances, advertising, meetings and so on.

I think it is very important to make something, something material, person to person, to strengthen these possibilities. We have to show this as a reality which intermixes our virtual and real dynamics. If our activities cannot create community AFK, our reach will remain strongly limited forever... that would be sad.

Of course, to make that financial culture a reality —in the case of Venezuela—, we must earn enough for taking us out of this survival mode. Then we'll inevitably begin to think in our future as groups and individuals, and also in the future of the ecosystems where we get that financial peace... which is so rare in our country.

The crypto-bloggers should be ready to save some of their earnings, not only powering up (which is a kind of investing), but saving in order to spend some of that directly. I and my fellow esperantists would often advise for that goal. That could lead us to the other possibility: a direct economy based on cryptocurrencies.

Finally, I wish to encourage all of you to explore and share ideas about this possible new culture for cryptocurrency management. We need a culture for the protection of our ecosystems, a new perspective for a good management of our own economy. It's a matter of education. But it won't happen if we don't speak about it.

If you are interested in these projects and ideas, please follow me and remain attentive to the development of my work.

Footnotes

_{1: Commonly the people is what governments and parties want it to be. It's very easy to use that concept without care, because it is an abstraction to mean "all civilians of a country". The people, in reality, are many groups with different values and goals, but manipulators speak about them as being a coherent unity. As Mckenna understood: If you can make they think alike, they'll buy alike... they'll kill alike.
2: I say "again" because it is proven that humanity lived with great freedom and reciprocity before the establishment of civilization. It was civilization that brought to us all these hierarchies and oppression. But, at the other hand, it's also civilization (and that stratification) which brought to us all this technology. No black & white perspectives here.
3: According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, liberalism is a theory in economics emphasizing individual freedom from restraint and usually based on free competition, the self-regulating market, and the gold standard. It is also a political philosophy based on belief in progress, the essential goodness of the human race, and the autonomy of the individual and standing for the protection of political and civil liberties. We, liberals, have no guilt over the fact that some politicians so called "liberals" don't support those values.
