4th industrial revolution has now reached public consciousness

[Anonymous No.26071757]

As early as the Chainlink ICO launch in September 2017, /biz/ realized that, for what appeared to be a mere two-man-team tech startup, the CEO Sergey Nazarov had far too many connections to the world's financial elite, and even began to theorise that Chainlink was probably created at the behest of these higher powers.

Central to this was the find by biz that the chair & founder of the World Economic Forum, Klaus Schwab, had connections to SmartContract.com (Chainlink's parent company) as early as 2016. Anons noticed that SmartContract was mentioned by name in his 2016 book The Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR), where he declares smart contracts as 1 of 21 shifts in technology that will bring about the titular 4IR.

This fact caught on with /biz/ Anons around January 2018, but the earlist mention of this fact was actually in September 2017. Either we have very dedicated autists, or an insider dropped us hints.

The early ETH buyers also understood that Smart Contracts would underpin the 4IR, with mentions going back as far as June 26, 2016 when ETH was at $14. [>>>>/biz/thread/S1335586#p1336411]

At some point the WEF rebranded the 4IR as "The Great Reset" (GR), probably for marketikng reasons such as negative connotations associated with heavy industry and environmental damage, but also because the 4IR seems to refer to the technological advances while the GR refers to societal changes. The terms are used interchangeably or in conjunction by the WEF. See e.g. [https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/10/the-great-reset-harnessing-the-fourth-industrial-revolution/]

I went back on Warosu and counted the number of posts each month that mention the 4IR & Chainlink. Anons, we were so fucking early, nolinkers are inexusably stupid to ignore the writing on the wall, with the LINK/4IR connection being posted about quite literally daily here for THREE YEARS. Meanwhile, normies, MSM and even /pol/ are ONLY JUST starting to catch on to the GR (see Google trends or go to /pol/ to see them crying about it). Is biz truly one of the most forward thinking places on the internet? HOW DID WE KNOW??

>WEF pumps Link because they're retarded and don't know what "decentralized" means
>normies pump Link because it makes Web3.0 possible and they want it after the Trump ban
It feels so comfy all I did was play Morrowind and I gained the annual salary of a McDonald's employee in one day.

lame LARP post

You have to laugh at all the dupes falling for the WEF marketing.
They are a bunch of talentless hacks, with nothing to contribute, trying to piggy back on whatever promising development comes along.

It's happening, they want it to happen, the course of history will be changed forever very soon.

The Great Reset only started picking up steam on other boards after a literal group of discord trannies started spamming about it. It was so coordinated and cringe.

it's in this book, but it's just talking about smart contract in general, not SmartContract.com

[Anonymous No.26073410]

Smartcontract.com is mentioned by name.

This was 4 years before Sergey and Chainlink were again recognised by the WEF and published a whitepaper together about the standardisation of oracles lmao. We fucking knew
