New York City has a new mayor, Eric Adams, who promised to make it the city of live science, the center or cyber security, the center of self driving cars, the center of drones and last but not least the "center of Bitcoins and technology"
Well, that's some bold statement over there, sir Adams... and you seem to be promising to be doing that in just one year... Good luck with that!
As the new mayor of New York said: Miami has had its run, now it's time for New York to shine, but is it really going to happen?... That remains to be seen. I'm no US citizens, but whenever I hear/read of technology being put to work to benefit humanity, I'm thrilled.
I know that the less developed countries will follow suit, in probably a couple of decades afterwards. I bet Miami will not just pause everything for New York to become the technology hub of the US now. Most of the comments on the tweet announcing all of that are not even sharing the vibe of Eric Adams.
Now, I'm thrilled about technology, as mentioned above, but you know what I would not be thrilled of... self driving cars that would take the pleasure of driving away while conditioning one's freedom of traveling based on some social profile, or digital passes that would be attained solely to proof of vaccination and whatever and charging stations working on the same principles, CBDCs instead of "Bitcoins" and drones surveilling citizens.
I love what Nayib Bukele is doing with "Bitcoin money" though. He's building a pet hospital and schools and probably if the no.1 crypto by market capitalization will appreciate even more he's further develop the country with these funds. I'm not saying Eric Adams is a liar, I just don't like after election speeches that much.
One thing is clear though, Bitcoin is gaining traction at state level. Politicians like mayor Suarez, who will receive his next paycheck in BTC, are showing the way. Bitcoin might not become a world wide used currency, but it will pave the way for others that will act as such.
The industry is no longer just a bubble out there on the internet play field. It's becoming palpable and all the signs in the world are pointing right now towards mass adoption. Good luck to bears expecting a 2018 like bear market in 2022.
Thanks for attention,
