The economy seems to be heading for a massive downturn bottoming out around 2030 within a decade of massive and rapid changes and shifts.
It’s all about “cycles” and the natural need of restructuring systems:
  1. Kitchin cycle (3–5 years)
  2. Juglar cycle (7–11 years)
  3. Kuznets swing (15–25 years)
  4. Kondratiev wave (45–60 years)
To thrive in this period of rapid change you need:
  1. creativity
  2. forward-thinking
  3. long-term preparation
  4. empathy
  5. the privilege to remain flexible
  6. resilience
  7. a good people network
Think big in vision but start implementing changes now in small practical steps. Build the future you dream by starting off today - position yourself for the long game.
It's a marathon requiring clarity, discipline and consistency. Don’t give up. it’s only those you will never stop trying that will be transferred to the other side. All the rest will go with the flow; like dead fish.
Key socio-shifts underway are:
  1. decoupling time from money
  2. reimagining work
  3. reimagine income
Most of today’s jobs will be just tasks next to transformative AI agents.
Prominent themes will be:
  1. populism
  2. significant digitization of identity/income/governance
All these will be heading to increased centralised technocracy and if not stopped precisely to techno-communism.
There will be another black swan event. That event will force people to obey and demand order. Ordo ab Chao.
Key Milestones to expect:
  1. digital ID rollouts
  2. trialing of universal basic income (UBI)
  3. increased automation and digitisation across all industries
As life and living are moving more and online, the most critical issues in the years to come will be around data privacy.
The next few years of change till 2030 will see massive compounding effects in society and technology. To navigate the turbulence of the times ahead people will need a long-term vision and to be able to maintain flexibility and foresight will be critical.
Many of today’s corporations will be extinct. Many of today’s norms will be forgotten and replaced by new. Generations Alpha and Meta will look back to today and wonder how could such a world could even existed.
The Bitcoin block reward continuing to halve on schedule is a key factor to consider. With the block reward projected to reach 0.78125 BTC in 2032, accumulating Bitcoin now while the price is around $50k could prove tremendously valuable in the future. Target to own at least a quarter of BTC.
50,000 USD today gives us 10 minutes of the entire world's mining power in 2032; this is an eye-opener. As Bitcoin continues to become more scarce over time while demand rises, the value and power of what can be purchased with a set amount of Bitcoin will likely grow exponentially.
Everything moves exponentially thanks to the side effects of Large and Small Language models.
The cost of intelligence will fall the cost of creativity will raise!
Simply doing what has worked in the past is no longer enough. Question old assumptions and experiment with new ideas.
Though change can be difficult, those who embrace it with optimism and vision will be the ones to shape the future. 


The opportunities are boundless for those with the courage to reinvent themselves.
It is the era of exponential transformation.
Hold your hats and fasten your seatbelts fellas!
It's going to be a bumpy ride…
