about the future of money.
about this culture
in the early 1900s, called the Yap.
početkom 20. stoljeća, po imenu Yap.
is really interesting.
called Rai stones.
koji se zovu kamenje Rai.
move these Rai stones around
to kamenje Rai uokolo,
we do with our coins,
na koji mi koristimo novčiće,
to be pretty massive.
and 12 feet across.
i promjer oko 3,6 metara.
of who owns part of what stone.
tko posjeduje koji dio nekog kamena.
across the ocean
and the stone actually fell in.
i kamen je pao u more.
and -- why not? -- it still counted.
zašto ne? On još vrijedi.
at the bottom of the ocean,
was just a small culture
samo mala kultura
in the Western world as well,
i u zapadnom svijetu,
a form of these stones.
neki oblik ovog kamenja.
asked the United States
je zatražila od SAD-a
from dollars into gold.
iz dolara u zlato.
to think about actually shipping
da bi pomišljali na prijevoz
that gold was being stored
tamo gdje je zlato bilo pohranjeno
as belonging to France now.
da ono sada pripada Francuskoj.
that France owned the gold.
vlasnik tog zlata.
with these two examples
iz ova dva primjera
inherently valuable
have any value
imaju ikakvu vrijednost,
da trebaju imati.
and the transactions
that we tell each other about value.
koju pričamo jedni drugima.
putem izravnog depozita,
is deducted from my paycheck
in my retirement account.
za moju mirovinu.
1's and 0's on computers.
jedinica i nula na računalima.
like a stone or a coin.
poput kamena ili novčića.
so that I can pay someone around the world
plaćanje nekome bilo gdje u svijetu,
underwriting every 1 or 0
koje osiguravaju svaku jedinicu ili nulu
of those large institutions.
tih velikih institucija.
to fix the problem.
na njima da riješe problem.
the US credit card companies
kartičarskim kućama SAD-a
still don't work in Europe.
i dalje ne vrijedi u Europi.
and across currencies
i u različitim valutama
can set up an online business in minutes,
posao elektronski u nekoliko minuta,
to get loans and to get paid:
i primiti uplate:
and our ability to freely transact
i sposobnost slobodnog vršenja transakcija
by these gatekeepers.
in the system slowing things down.
koje usporavaju stvari.
isn't really mine,
nije zaista moj,
that belong to my bank,
koje pripadaju mojoj banci,
or my investment firm.
ili mojoj investicijskoj kući.
have the right to say "no."
da sam počinila pronevjeru,
and I can't get paid.
i ne mogu primati uplate.
in the way of innovation.
Facebook photos, Google Photos,
s Facebooka, Googlea,
they're on my laptop,
they're in Dropbox.
websites and services.
stranicama i uslugama.
don't work together.
the money supply.
don't inter-operate,
what we can do with payment.
što možemo učiniti plaćanjem.
two phases of money.
to deal with these physical objects,
ovim fizičkim predmetima
the speed of humans.
-- ljudskom brzinom.
much farther and is much faster,
novac stiže dalje i brži je,
of these gatekeeper institutions.
koje nadziru pristup.
than just a static unit of value,
statične jedinice vrijednosti
on institutions for security.
na institucije radi sigurnosti.
and institutions from the loop.
we're transacting anymore.
da obavljamo transakcije.
of this evolution.
nikakva vlada niti banka.
in a world without intermediaries.
da funkcionira u svijetu bez posrednika.
cryptocurrency,
Stellar, Dogecoin,
Stellar, Dogecoin,
of the more popular ones.
that I can use to buy sashimi.
preko koje mogu kupiti sashimi.
that moved around 100,000 bitcoins.
u iznosu od oko 100.000 bitcoina.
of 40 million US dollars.
od 40 milijuna američkih dolara.
a special field of mathematics
na posebnom polju matematike,
of how to secure communication,
načina kako osigurati komunikaciju
really important things:
be hidden in plain sight,
tako da se mogu sakriti na vidnom mjestu
of information's source.
so many of the systems around us.
toliko mnogo sustava oko nas.
classified it as a weapon.
breaking cryptosystems like Enigma
provaljivanje kriptosistema poput Enigme
enemy transmissions
neprijateljske razmjene
web browser is running
neki pretraživač,
our interactions on the Internet.
osigurali naše interakcije na internetu.
to type our passwords in
sigurno unosimo svoje lozinke
information to websites.
nekada davale,
application of cryptography.
pametnom primjenom kriptografije.
have to rely on the banks anymore
oslanjati na banke
idea that the Yap used,
koju je koristila kultura Yap,
knowledge of transfers.
znanju o transferima.
by transferring Bitcoin,
što prebacujem Bitcoin,
transfers Bitcoin to me.
meni prebaci Bitcoin.
is I can give you a sheet of it
da vam dam jedan list
on my piece as well.
the transfers that they're doing
around to everyone else's pieces of paper.
i na dio papira svih ostalih.
of the transfers that are happening
koji se dešavaju
with the Bitcoin blockchain,
s blockchainom Bitcoina,
of the transactions in Bitcoin.
of networked computers
are collectively confirming
is core to how Bitcoin works.
sama bit onoga kako Bitcoin funkcionira.
to create new Bitcoin
tako da stvara novi Bitcoin
is that to get those Bitcoin,
kako bih dobila te Bitcoine,
a random cryptographic puzzle.
nasumičnu kriptografsku zagonetku.
over and over again.
dobijemo šestice,
are all actually doing.
što ova računala zapravo rade.
to land on the right number.
doći do pravog broja.
to the rest of the network
helping to secure the Bitcoin blockchain
osigurati blockchain Bitcoina
all over the world running this software,
koji upravljaju ovim softverom,
and try to collect some bitcoins.
i pokušati sakupiti Bitcoine.
a mreža tako jaka,
and the network is so powerful,
Bitcoin on my laptop,
tražiti Bitcoine sa svog laptopa,
for about two million years.
ne bih našla niti jedan.
use this special hardware
koriste poseban hardver,
the puzzle really fast.
da vrlo brzo riješi zagonetku.
and all of this special hardware,
i sav taj posebni hardver
that the amount of energy it uses
da koriste količinu energije
koju troši neka mala država.
and a little bit cumbersome.
to be so much better and so much faster.
mnogo bolja i brža.
programmable money.
koji se može programirati.
koji se može programirati,
or ask permission,
ili tražiti dopuštenje,
about my money getting stuck.
da će mi novac negdje zaglaviti.
bez davanja dopuštenja.
an explosion of innovation,
do naglog rasta inovacija,
an open architecture.
changed the way we communicate,
naš način komunikacije,
to change the way we pay,
promijenit će način na koji plaćamo,
o vrijednosti.
does programmable money create?
koji se može programirati?
rent out my healthcare data
iznajmiti svoje zdravstvene podatke
in a way that we agreed.
na način na koji smo se dogovorili.
for what they find out.
for streaming services
za usluge streaminga
my watching habits
analizirao moje navike gledanja
that fit within my budget
koji najbolje odgovara mom budžetu,
with our attention when we view content,
kada gledamo sadržaj,
na koji sigurnost funkcionira u svijetu,
the way security works in our world,
u raspodjeli vrijednosti,
to allocate value,
and their energies
to send an email,
stajalo djelić centa,
neželjenu poštu?
that is seeing the first automobile.
koji vidi prvi automobil.
like the first car,
and hard to use.
i teška za korištenje.
like the horse and carriage,
is built on it.
je izgrađena na njemu.
combustion engine,
na unutarnje sagorijevanje,
think you were crazy:
pomislili da ste ludi:
this large, clunky machine
i nezgrapnu mašinu,
that lights on fire,
of programmable money.
novca koji se programira.
but it's also a little bit scary.
ali i pomalo zastrašujuće.
for illegal transactions,
za nezakonite transakcije,
in the world today.
za kriminal u današnjem svijetu.
who can see what we do?
tko može vidjeti što mi radimo?
in this new world and who isn't?
u ovom novom svijetu, a tko nije?
that I didn't have to pay for before?
što prije nisam morala?
to algorithms and utility functions?
algoritama i funkcija korisnosti?
dolaze i kompromisi.
a lot of ways to waste time.
mnogo načina za gubljenje vremena.
increased productivity.
i jako povećao produktivnost.
like I have to stay connected to work
kao da moram ostati vezana za posao
s prijateljima i obitelji.
to friends and family.
is going to eliminate some jobs.
nestat će neki poslovi.
new, flexible forms of employment.
fleksibilne oblike zaposlenja.
for large, trusted institutions
pouzdanim institucijama
out to the edges, where it belongs.
do ruba, gdje i pripada.
demokratizira novac.
things are going to change and unfold
promijeniti i razvijati,
