As to crypto forums, many think some new tech funk will save the
world.

At best, a better hammer may help those who act in ways which may,
possibly, uplift humans in one way or another.

We ivory tower to our detriment, to avoid the confront of life,
interactions with other humans, or what might be called "reality".

Meat space ever remains.

Real humans, their thoughts, their hopes, their intentions and their
actions, are the grist of life, the only place real change can occur.

   you shall not be able to keep it."
