自 Eos社区治理和发展的深度思考（草稿第一部分） 继续讨论：
3，区块链最大的价值和意义究竟在哪里
在我看来，区块链是人类社会几千年来最伟大的发明。没有之一。
做出这个评价的依据是：区块链技术能在人类的内部世界——精神世界中创造无穷无尽的财富，并且，能提升精神世界。相对于蒸汽机技术能在人类的外部世界——物质世界中创造丰富的财富，但是，却破坏了物质世界而言。区块链技术显然更伟大。
因此，区块链最大的价值和意义，是在精神世界中创造跨文明新财富。
什么叫跨文明新财富 。就是在旧文明时代没有、也不可能出现的新财富。比如，牛羊或许是人类原始文明时代的财富。那相对牛羊而言，土地、金银，就属于农耕文明时代的跨文明新财富了。因为，原始文明时代还没有在土地上种植、养殖的技术，也没有金银的开采和加工技术。所以，它们在那时还都不可能成为财富。而相对于土地、金银而言，知识产权、股票，又属于工业文明时代的跨文明新财富了。由此可见，人类社会的每一个新文明时代，都必然出现属于这个文明范畴的跨文明新财富。
按照托夫勒的第三次浪潮理论。第一次浪潮，引发了人类农耕文明。第二次浪潮，引发了人类工业文明。现在，正在经历第三次浪潮，引发的将是人类的信息文明。他说的信息文明，就是我们说的智慧文明。无论是信息文明，还是智慧文明，形容的都是人类新文明时代。可是，属于这个新文明时代的跨文明新财富呢。似乎并没有出现。现在市场上看到的主流财富，依然还是牛羊、土地、金银、知识产权、股票证券这些形态。
而区块链的最伟大之处，正在于它承载着创造不同于这些旧财富的跨文明新财富使命。这才是它最大的价值和意义。
比特币，就是区块链创造的跨文明新财富雏形 。它与ETH、EOS、DOT、UNI一起，都可以理解为是在为区块链新经济开发基础设施，最终目的都是为了更好、更有效、更公平地创造和分配跨文明新财富。
对于区块链公链来说，这个问题至关重要。如果我们不明白这一点。我们的一切行动，无论是公链打造，还是社区治理和发展，就都是盲目的。就像盲人骑瞎马，撞到到哪里是哪里。完全凭运气了。而这个认知一旦清楚了、明白了，我们的具体方向才会呈现出来，社区治理和建设的目标和目的，也会明确无误。在这个基础上达成的共识，才能凝聚最大化的社会力量，去创建一个有新财富作为经济基础的新社会、新世界。才能实现BM《More Equal Animals》伊甸园的美好情怀和伟大梦想。
必须承认，在人类情怀和梦想上，我与BM属于同一类人。也正因为如此，我对BM的理解才比一般人更深，对BM的相信也比一般人更实。而且，我还认为，EOS具备了成为这个时代最伟大公链的一切基础。可以这么说，如果没有BM的这种站在人类命运高度所追求的情怀和梦想，EOS是不可能成为最伟大公链的。
就像ETH，它的背后也有一个天才的灵魂人物V神。而且，V神也有自己追求和坚持的情怀和梦想。但V神毕竟年轻，情怀和梦想还比较稚嫩，比较碎片化。BM的视野要广阔得多。而且，这些情怀和梦想都已经系统化了。所以，尽管我也很看好V神、看好ETH。相信假以时日，ETH也能成为一条伟大的公链。但更看好BM，看好EOS。所以，愿意与BM，以及EOS社区的伙伴们一起，将EOS建设成一条最伟大的公链。
回到这一节的主题。我们说，区块链的最大价值和意义，是创造跨文明新财富。这个提法虽然大家以前没听说过，但是，这种感觉，相信区块链世界中的每个人都有。比特币不正是以这样一种新财富形态，在向所有接触它的人展示那种不可思议的价值魅力。而它才仅仅是跨文明新财富的雏形。把它理解为虚拟世界中的数字黄金，对应于现实世界中的黄金，是比较贴切的。可大家都知道，黄金在整个现实世界的财富价值中，所占比例是很小的。现实世界中土地、石油、矿产、知识产权、股票、证券，承载着最大的财富价值。
那么，在未来虚拟世界中。对应这类最大财富价值的新财富是什么呢？那就是用区块链技术创造的跨文明新财富了。这才是EOS公链要承载的最根本使命，也是EOS社区治理需要达成的根本共识。
可是，这跨文明新财富究竟是什么，说到现在大家也不明白。既然连比特币都还仅仅是雏形。那么，正宗的跨文明新财富长什么样，是还没有诞生吗。也不是。跨文明新财富的表现形态早就出现了，就是今天火热的NFT。但NFT只是一个壳，里面既可以装新财富，也可以装传统财富。而现在市场上我们看到的NFT，基本上装的都是传统财富。至于装新财富的NFT长什么样，大家可以参见我们的八宝树和《八宝树白皮书》。
因为本文要表述的，主要是对EOS社区治理和发展的一些深层次思考。至于跨文明新财富的具体表现、具体打造，甚至具体分配，后面我们会有专门时间和空间来探讨。下一节我们继续回归主题。

英文部分
3. Where is the greatest value and significance of the blockchain
In my opinion, the blockchain is the greatest invention of human society in thousands of years. No one.
The basis for this evaluation is that Blockchain technology can create infinite wealth in the internal world of mankind–the spiritual world, which can also enhance the spiritual world. Compared with the steam engine technology that can create rich wealth in the external world of mankind–the material world, which destroys the material world, blockchain technology is obviously greater.
Therefore, the greatest value and significance of the blockchain is to create new cross-civilization wealth in the spiritual world.
What is new wealth across-civilization ? It is the new wealth that was not and could not appear in the former civilization. For example, cattle and sheep may be the wealth of the primitive civilization of mankind. Compared with cattle and sheep, land, gold and silver belong to the new cross-civilization wealth of the agricultural civilization era. Because in the primitive civilization era, there was no technology for planting and breeding on the land, and there was no technology for mining and processing gold and silver. Therefore, none of them could become wealth at that time. Compared with land, gold and silver, the intellectual property rights and stocks belong to the new cross-civilization wealth of the industrial civilization era. It can be seen from this that in every new civilization era in human society, new cross-civilization wealth belonging to this civilization category will inevitably appear.
According to Toffler’s third wave theory. The first wave triggered the civilization of mankind farming. The second wave triggered mankind industrial civilization. Now, we are going through the third wave, and what will be triggered will be the information civilization of mankind. The information civilization he said is what we call the wisdom civilization. Whether it is information civilization or wisdom civilization, it describes the era of new mankind civilization. However, the cross-civilization new wealth belonging to this new civilization era. It doesn’t seem to appear. The mainstream wealth seen in the market today is still in the form of cattle and sheep, land, gold and silver, intellectual property, stocks and securities.
The greatest thing about blockchain is that it carries the mission of creating new wealth across-civilization that is different from the former wealth. which is its greatest value and significance.
Bitcoin is the embryonic form of the new cross-civilization wealth created by the blockchain. Together with ETH, EOS, DOT, and UNI, that could all be understood as developing infrastructure for the new blockchain economy. The ultimate goal is to create and distribute new wealth across-civilization better, more effectively, and more fairly.
For blockchain public chains, this issue is very important. If we don’t understand this, all our actions, whether it is public chain building or community governance and development, will be blind. It’s like a blind man riding a blind horse, and it’s entirely luck to hit wherever he goes. Once this cognition is clear and understood, our specific direction will be revealed, and the goals and objectives of community governance and construction will be clear and unmistakable. Only by reaching a consensus on this basis can we gather the maximum social forces to create a new society and a new world with new wealth as the economic foundation. In order to realize the beautiful feelings and great dreams of BM “More Equal Animals” Garden of Eden.
It must be admitted that in terms of mankind feelings and dreams, I and BM belong to the same category of people. Because of this, I have a deeper understanding of BM than ordinary people, and my belief in BM is more sincere than ordinary people. Moreover, I also believe that EOS has all the foundations to become the greatest public chain of this era. It’s simply that without the feelings and dreams pursued by BM at the height of mankind destiny, EOS would not be the greatest public chain.
Just like ETH, there is also a genius soul figure Vitalik Buterin behind it. Moreover, Vitalik Buterin also has his own feelings and dreams to pursue and persist. But Vitalik Buterin is young after all, so that his feelings and dreams are still relatively immature and relatively fragmented. BM’s field of vision is much broader. Moreover, these feelings and dreams have been systematized. Therefore, although I am also very optimistic about Vitalik Buterin and ETH, and I believe that after some time, ETH can also become a great public chain, but I am more optimistic about BM and EOS. so, I am willing to work with BM and partners in the EOS community to build EOS into the greatest public chain.
Back to the topic of this section that the greatest value and significance of the blockchain is to create new wealth across-civilization. Although everyone has never heard of this term before, I believe that everyone in the blockchain world has this feeling. Bitcoin is not just in such a new form of wealth, showing that incredible value charm to everyone who comes into contact with it. And it is only the embryonic form of new wealth across-civilization. Compared with gold in the real world, it is more appropriate to understand it as digital gold in the virtual world. But everyone knows that gold occupies a very small proportion of the value of wealth in the entire real world. In the real world, land, oil, minerals, intellectual property rights, stocks, and securities carry the greatest value of wealth.
So, in the future virtual world, what is the new wealth corresponding to this type of greatest wealth value? That is the new cross-civilization wealth created by blockchain technology. This is the most fundamental mission to be carried by the EOS public chain, and it is also the fundamental consensus that EOS community governance needs to reach.
However, what is this new wealth of inter-civilizations? Everyone still doesn’t understand. Since even Bitcoin is still in its rudimentary form, hasn’t the authentic cross-civilization new wealth been born yet? Nor is it. The manifestation of cross-civilization new wealth has appeared, and it is NFT which is very hot at present. But NFT is just a shell, which can contain both new wealth and traditional wealth. And the NFTs we see on the market now basically pretend to be traditional wealth. As for what the NFT with new wealth looks like, you can refer to our CryptoTree and “The CryptoTree White Paper”.
Because what this article wants to express mainly is some thoughts in-depth on the governance and development of the EOS community. As for the specific performance, specific creation, and even specific distribution of the new wealth of cross-civilization, we will have special time and space to discuss later. We continue to return to the topic in the next section.
