According to Hoskinson, blockchain technology could ‘radically’ transform the future, create better government services across the globe, and make them interoperable with each other – which is exactly what he plans to achieve, Yahoo Finance’s Brian McGleenon reported on July 14. As he told in an interview with Yahoo Finance’s ‘The Crypto Mile’: He underlined that in a centralized system, “one person basically gets to decide those rules, and oftentimes, those become very anti-competitive and they actually become anti-consumer,” ending up “hurting people or exposing people to a lot of market failures.”
Radical transparency of government services
Replying to the host’s question about the future global structure, Hoskinson said he didn’t anticipate the disappearance of the nation-state, but taking “lots of government services and [putting] them into a structure where they have radical transparency.” In Hoskinson’s view, in such a world, all of a government’s tax revenue could be open source, and everyone can look into it, and see where the money is coming from and where it is going. This might have numerous beneficial effects: Finally, he added that “there’s never been a time in human history that that has been the case.” Meanwhile, Hoskinson recently criticized the Twitter ‘trolls’ who have asserted that the planned rollout of the Vasil hardfork would negatively affect the Cardano network’s smart contract functionality. As he highlighted, the network had taken the necessary steps to ensure the smart contracts are compatible with the upgrades, eliminating the need for rewriting, Finbold reported in early July.
