Harvesting, Tokenizing, and Sharing the Influence of Planetary Abundance to Mitigate the Global Debt Catastrophe ()
ABSTRACT
The global debt crisis of mega proportions is heading towards the
collapse of our economic systems. Posing as one of the existential threats to
humanity, the perpetually increasing debt/GDP ratio projected to rise to 1300%
by 2030 has no cure unless a radical new approach replaces or complements our current
scarcity-focused, centralization-prone economic approaches. One such approach
evolved from the 2008 economic crisis that resulted in the birth of a
technology that made decentralization of any ecosystem free of human biases and
prejudices. Hailed as the greatest advancement since the invention of the
internet, blockchain is a liberating force of the digital age and a potential
enabler of the 21st-century sharing economy (Sharonomics) that
transforms scarcity-centered legacy economic systems to one of abundance.
Tokenizing that planetary abundance to offset the massive global debt may be a
utopian dream at the present time but by applying the law of accelerating
returns to the technology advancements of this century, a credible path can be
hypothesized and pursued. The principle aim of this research is to provide
theoretical support to such a hypothesis suggesting future research avenues
towards a possible solution. The research methodology follows the narrative and
integrative literature review approach based on peer-reviewed reports.
