Collective Ventures envision an interconnected world that operates at the local level first, instead of last. Then, these micro-economies make their surplus available for trade and export last, instead of first.
Cryptocurrency and blockchain have the ability to remove so many expensive middlemen and time-draining procedures from the workflow of commerce. By doing this, it allows humans to reclaim more of our time and energy to pursue our own personal interests, development, and experiences.
What makes one blockchain or crypto better than another is its decentralized nature. Power has traditionally required trust. Now we can opt out of trust altogether, and use systems that are "trustless". No admins, no leaders, no kings. Over the past decade, starting with Bitcoin, we have seen that technologies with contributors and strong communities are far more effective and profitable than top-down corporate dictatorships.
