Yet, we have failed miserably at the next BIG thing in defense: hypersonic weapons!
Both China and Russia have hypersonic weapons ready to use on us.
China even claims they can use they can use their hypersonic missiles with heat seeking technology toย destroy our most advanced fighter aircraftย the F-35 and F-22.ย ย ย ย
Now at best, the U.S. Navy is hoping to be able to perhaps deploy hypersonic weapons by 2025-2028.
In the meantime, the U.S. is vulnerable to its adversaries at a time when Russia and China are rearing their militaries for confrontations in Ukraine and Taiwan, respectively.
And that could be only the beginning, if we don’t get our military R&D together and fast.
How could this happen with all the money we spend on defense?
Eyes wide shut like Pearl Harbor and 9/11 all over again! ๐
It is being sold as a hedge against not only inflation, but also doomsday!
However, Bitcoin is not gold which can be sold or bartered in a true doomsday scenario.
Bitcoin is a digital cryptocurrency and as such it is dependent on technology.
In a doomsday scenario, there is a great chance for the interruption for extended periods of time of our technical infrastructure whether through terrorism, war, cyber attack, or an electromagnetic pulse.
Even with Blockchain distributed ledger, there is a high probability that you will NOT be able to access or trade Bitcoin from any digital wallet if the infrastructure is severely or broadly damaged.
Your gold watch, ring, or coins will still hold value as currency, but your Bitcoins will be useless!
If you think losing your password to access Bitcoin is a problem, what happens where you can’t access the Internet.
A digital doomsday is not as far fetched as you may think and the vulnerability of Western Civilization, in particular high-tech countries like America have much at stake.
If you think Bitcoin will be your hedge again a major disruption in our way of life you are caught in the greater fool theory. ๐
Exciting video by Futurism on what drones can and will do.ย
Swarming.
Wall landings.
Acrobatics.
Drone on drone landings.
Playing catch.
Juggling.
Building a rope bridge.ย
These little drones are so versatile and dexterous that perhaps what they can do is only limited by our imagination.ย
Soon drones will do everything from caring for people’s personal needs to building our cities, fighting diseases from within our very bodies, and conducting open warfare on the battlefield and behind enemy lines.ย
