How many times have you said or heard somebody make a statement about how much different a millennial is than past generations? That statement alone should make you think. If a millennial thinks so much different than past generations, then what will the world be like when they reach their peak. They will control some of the most powerful companies on the planet and be working their way into politics. Scary right! Well maybe not. Change is inevitable and things are about to change. The idea of getting up at 5AM and heading off to work a low paying job all day is just not appealing to a millennial. They can't afford to strike out on their own at 18 anymore. Everything, and I do mean everything has just gotten too expensive. What is a millennial to do. Well, that is easy. They live off of their parents as long as they can. This gave them time to immerse themselves into a digital world where none of the issues of reality exist.
Millennials may be the luckiest generation of the past 80 years. If you have been paying attention to everything that has been going on around you, you know deep down in your soul that something major is about to happen. It is my prediction, that this major and unprecedented change is coming within 8-10 years. I have never been one to make predictions based on a timeframe, so let me explain why I am walking the plank this time. Based on the generational theory, (Generational Theory) the United States is nearing the end of a sacellum cycle. Understanding what a sacellum cycle is, can be confusing. However, I have found an easy way to demonstrate the meaning with the image below:

All you have to do is let your mind drift a little to see that the US is clearly in the "Weak Men Create Hard Time" cycle. But what does Cryptocurrency have to do with this. Glad you asked. The millennials that immersed themselves into fantasy land have decided that they prefer the digital world to the real world. They don't trust the government (and why should they), they don't want to push a wheel barrel or pour concrete. They want to project an image of who they are online. Welcome to the Metaverse, coming soon to a life near you. Step by step, the millennials have been building the infrastructure to support a Ready Player One "like" digital world. Elon Musk is coming out with the humanoid robot like you saw in Wall-E. You can now buy a JPG of an art piece to hang on your digital wall. Most recently, I came across a company selling virtual real estate. Not being a millennial, I find this all a bit weird. But, after spending 20+ years working in IT, I seen this coming and have had time to think of the long-term implications.
Millennials are tired of the old platform that society was built on, so they have created an entirely new platform and the US dollar is not welcome in the new platform. The US government can try to regulate it, but the old grey hairs cannot think as fast as a millennial. By the time congress applies a regulation to a new technology, it will be old news. The Metaverse will have the power to strip the government of many stolen powers. Since the 1970s, the government has controlled the population with the use of a fiat currency. They create the laws and control the money supply. We (the people of the United States) get the scraps from the master's table. So, instead of playing this game, the millennials learned to use crypto currency for every aspect of the digital life and different crypto currencies to connect real life with their digital life. Millennials can't afford to buy a Picasso, so they create an NFT (JPG) of a Picasso to be bought and sold within the metaverse. How long before an NFT of an art piece sells for more than the actual art piece.
Kind of crazy right. Well hang on to your shorts, because the best is yet to come. This thing is just getting started. As the adoption rate of BitCoin clears the chasm things a going to blow up like a Project X party. Below is a representation of how close we are to this awaking.

BitCoin is currently valued over 60K and only has a 18-19% adoption rate. If your mind did not just reboot, it is fair to say you are a conservative or a skeptic. Me, I chose to be a chasm dweller. I got into crypto after the visionary period, but before the pragmatists period. In the IT world, adoption rate is everything. A company will spend a small fortune on new technology based on an ROI. The ROI is based on the adoption rate. The faster the company can get their employees and vendors using the new technology the sooner they can decommission the old tech that is costing them money. Once the new technology reaches 25-30% adoption rate, it is game over. The company can set back and let the new technology do the rest. Word of mouth, improved purpose and more features will quickly win over the early majority of adaptors. Cryptocurrencies will be no different and crypto will power the metaverse. Thus, the gray hairs in capitol hill can suck it, because the time to move all your fiat currency out of the central banking system is quickly approaching. The Central Banks know what's coming and are working hard to throw road blocks up and develop power grab scenarios, but they ignored the Millennials for far to long. Now the Millennials have burst back onto the scene as they near their peak earning age, saying "It is time to retire pops, your heart can't handle what's coming".
