Cryptocurrency, Wealth Inequality, and The Play-Motivated Economy
Jordan Stephens |
TEDxYouth@BrowningSchool
• May 2018
This talk is about how we can utilize automation and cryptocurrency to maximize play and access to play. Jordan Stephens suggests the aim of cryptocurrency shouldn’t be to get rich, but to automate and simplify accounting in trade, traditionally the job of banks. Stephens demonstrates how the wealth concentration of Bitcoin is comparable to the world wealth concentration, making the wealth gap comparable as well. Stephens then introduces ideas on how to tackle the issue of wealth inequality and how the recent surge in cryptocurrency is a new opportunity.
