I'm not saying its a positive outcome (nor was he), simply seems most likely that humans will continue as they have vs some massive step change in how humans operate because of the introduction of a better money. Corruption, greed, power concentration and the rich/powerful looting the poor/weak will continue.
I hope that's not what happens, but I'm not a huge fan of "its different this time" thinking especially when its based on wishes and desires and hopes and dreams.
