RE: Fundamentals of Hive's layer 2

IMO, the future is clearly IoT.
Bridging the material world with this digital/virtual world is key. Be it networking, asset tokenisation, and full Ai/brain expression. The latter, imo will become the future Base System. Because at the end of the day we are all virtual entities FIRST - Consciousness - Which then commands a physical system: Organism (primarily to obtain energy). Anyway that's getting ahead of my point but it's needed to paint the picture.

The true bridging takes place when everyday actions are integrated into this digital front which more and more expands into our physical world. Smart cities are already in effect (new organism). The last task is to integrate The Human (as cells of that new organism) to be part of the progression of connectivity + Data Mining. Which is why we're existing now transitioning (somewhat forcefully) into that digital age.

So my point is that 'the token game' needs to go all the way into the everyday human tasks. For that is, truly A ONE SYSTEM which has human exist as the analogues to this digital reality which is evolving. (Which coincidentally, doesn't actually need FACT in order to be REAL). So in an example, I see @actifit as actually ahead of the pack. They just lack the marketing and funds to push that out into the wider world. Because that's true next layer. That the behaviour of a real human, such as exercise, can sustain the system, and the system rewards in return the physical action.

Such integration could even solve real world problems of society. For example youth and substance abuse is a real problem. Yet the only form of correction is punishment. I imagine a system of rewards, similar to actifit where the movement is rewarded. Meaning a person dancing all night gets rewarded for that action. So then, the incentive to move away from substance abuse exists in the reward. A person choosing to take substance gets a little. A person not utilizing substance on the other hand gets greater reward. Even enough that results in the price of that event nullified. Such an incentive exists as a no brainer: "do I take substance and pay for it all, or do I not take substance and enjoy my fun paid for". That person then (and the mass effect) exist to then ensure the system utilized has real world users (analogues) that sustain the system/network infrastructure.

Obviously these systems/devices aren't even in existence yet. However, they are already utilized in one form or another. Fitbit after all is the device utilized for many things already. Ai also well developed to be the BIG BRAIN that manages it all.

We really are in the embryo stage of all this becoming realized. Which is why some might see it as a completely crazy idea.. but really, the systems which we have lived by for centuries, ARE what is outdated.

Virtual Reality will be THE REALITY. In many forms. The "loss" then exists when these systems (Blockchain, web 3.0, etc..) aren't capitalising on the always remaining "meat packet actions". So IoT won't just seek to connect machines to the system, it will encompass the entire world. Viewing 'the world you're imagining' as only a digital system existing as mere closed communities is not future thinking.
