about the future of money.
about this culture
in the early 1900s, called the Yap.
početkom 20. veka, po imenu Jap.
is really interesting.
koji se zovu kamenje rai.
called Rai stones.
move these Rai stones around
to kamenje rai unaokolo
na koji mi to činimo sa novčićima,
we do with our coins,
to be pretty massive.
and 12 feet across.
i prečnik od oko 3,6 metara.
of who owns part of what stone.
ko poseduje koji deo kog kamena.
across the ocean
and the stone actually fell in.
i kamen je upao.
and -- why not? -- it still counted.
zašto da ne - on još važi.
at the bottom of the ocean,
was just a small culture
samo mala kultura pre sto godina.
i u zapadnom svetu,
in the Western world as well,
a form of these stones.
neki oblik ovog kamenja.
asked the United States
je zatražila od Sjedinjenih Država
from dollars into gold.
iz dolara u zlato.
to think about actually shipping
da bi pomišljali na prevoz
that gold was being stored
tamo gde se to zlato čuvalo
as belonging to France now.
da sada pripada Francuskoj.
that France owned the gold.
vlasnik tog zlata.
pomoću ova dva primera
with these two examples
inherently valuable
imaju bilo kakvu vrednost
have any value
da treba da je imaju.
and the transactions
that we tell each other about value.
koju pričamo jedni drugima,
putem direktnog depozita,
is deducted from my paycheck
in my retirement account.
na mom penzijskom računu.
1's and 0's on computers.
jedinice i nule na kompjuterima.
like a stone or a coin.
poput kamena ili novčića.
so that I can pay someone around the world
da mogu da platim nekome širom sveta
underwriting every 1 or 0
ili nulu koja se promeni na kompjuteru.
of those large institutions.
tih velikih institucija
to fix the problem.
na njima da reše problem.
za kreditne kartice u SAD-u
the US credit card companies
still don't work in Europe.
i dalje ne funkcioniše u Evropi.
and across currencies
i u različitim valutama
can set up an online business in minutes,
onlajn posao za nekoliko minuta,
to get loans and to get paid:
i da prima uplate -
and our ability to freely transact
da slobodno vršimo transakcije
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 investicionoj firmi,
have the right to say "no."
da sam počinila proneveru,
i ne mogu da primam uplate.
and I can't get paid.
in the way of innovation.
Facebook photos, Google Photos,
slike na Fejsbuku, Gugl slike,
they're on my laptop,
they're in Dropbox.
websites and services.
veb-sajtovima i uslugama.
don't work together.
the money supply.
don't inter-operate,
what we can do with payment.
ono što možemo uraditi sa plaćanjem.
two phases of money.
to deal with these physical objects,
da se bavimo ovim fizičkim predmetima
the speed of humans.
ljudskom brzinom.
much farther and is much faster,
mnogo dalje i brže da stigne,
of these gatekeeper institutions.
koje kontrolišu pristup.
than just a static unit of value,
od samo statične jedinice vrednosti
on institutions for security.
na institucije zbog bezbednosti.
and institutions from the loop.
we're transacting anymore.
da vršimo transakcije.
of this evolution.
nikakva vlada niti banka.
in a world without intermediaries.
da funkcioniše u svetu bez posrednika.
cryptocurrency,
Stellar, Dogecoin,
stelar, dodžkoin,
of the more popular ones.
that I can use to buy sashimi.
koju mogu koristiti da kupim sašimi.
that moved around 100,000 bitcoins.
koja je izmestila oko 100 000 bitkoina.
of 40 million US dollars.
kao 40 miliona američkih dolara.
a special field of mathematics
na posebnom polju matematike
of how to secure communication,
načina na koji obezbeđujemo komunikaciju
really important things:
be hidden in plain sight,
tako da se mogu sakriti na vidnom mestu
of information's source.
so many of the systems around us.
toliko sistema oko nas.
classified it as a weapon.
breaking cryptosystems like Enigma
kao što je Enigma

savremeni pretraživač interneta
our interactions on the Internet.
naše interakcije na internetu.
to type our passwords in
da unesemo svoju šifru

finansijske informacije.
nekad davale -
application of cryptography.
pametnom primenom kriptografije.
da se oslanjamo na banke
have to rely on the banks anymore
idea that the Yap used,
koju Japi koriste,
knowledge of transfers.
saznanju o transferima.
by transferring Bitcoin,
tako što prebacujem bitkoin,
transfers Bitcoin to me.
kada neko meni prebaci bitkoin.
is I can give you a sheet of it
i napišete nešto na njemu,
on my piece as well.
the transfers that they're doing
around to everyone else's pieces of paper.
na svačiji papir.
of the transfers that are happening
u čitavoj ekonomiji bitkoina.
with the Bitcoin blockchain,
sa blokčejnom bitkoina,
of the transactions in Bitcoin.
of networked computers
umreženih kompjutera širom sveta.
are collectively confirming
is core to how Bitcoin works.
načina na koji bitkoin funkcioniše.
to create new Bitcoin
tako da stvara novi bitkon
is that to get those Bitcoin,
da bih dobila te bitkoine,
a random cryptographic puzzle.
nasumičnu kriptografsku zagonetku.
over and over again.
are all actually doing.
što ovi kompjuteri zapravo rade.
to land on the right number.
da dođu do pravog broja.
to the rest of the network
helping to secure the Bitcoin blockchain
da se osigura bitkoinov blokčejn
all over the world running this software,
koji upravljaju ovim softverom,
and try to collect some bitcoins.
i pokušati da sakupite bitkoine.
tako teška i mreža je tako jaka,
and the network is so powerful,
Bitcoin on my laptop,
da kopam bitkoine na svom laptopu,
for about two million years.
jedno dva miliona godina.
use this special hardware
koriste specijalni hardver
the puzzle really fast.
da veoma brzo reši zagonetku.
and all of this special hardware,
i sav taj specijalni hardver
that the amount of energy it uses
da koriste količinu energiju
koju troši manja država.
and a little bit cumbersome.
to be so much better and so much faster.
će biti toliko bolja i brža.
programmable money.
koji se može programirati.
koji se može programirati,
or ask permission,
da tražim dozvolu,
about my money getting stuck.
da će mi se novac zaglaviti.
bez davanja dozvole.
an explosion of innovation,
do naglog porasta inovacija,
an open architecture.
changed the way we communicate,
promenio način na koji komuniciramo,
to change the way we pay,
će promeniti način na koji plaćamo,
novac koji se može programirati?
does programmable money create?
rent out my healthcare data
da iznajmim svoje zdravstvene podatke
in a way that we agreed.
samo na dogovoreni način.
for what they find out.
for streaming services
za usluge strimovanja
my watching habits
analizirao moje navike gledanja
that fit within my budget
koji se uklapa u moj budžet,
with our attention when we view content,
kada gledamo sadržaj,
poput mikroplaćanja
the way security works in our world,
funkcioniše u našem svetu,
u pridavanju vrednosti,
to allocate value,
and their energies
to send an email,
nepoželjne poruke?
that is seeing the first automobile.
koji vidi prvi automobil.
like the first car,
and hard to use.
i za korišćenje.
like the horse and carriage,
is built on it.
izgrađen je na njemu.
sa unutrašnjim sagorevanjem,
combustion engine,
think you were crazy:
pomislile da ste ludi:
this large, clunky machine
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 svetu.
who can see what we do?
ko može da vidi šta radimo?
in this new world and who isn't?
u tom novom svetu, a ko ne?

algoritama i funkcija korisnosti?
nastupa uz kompromise.
a lot of ways to waste time.
mnogo načina za traćenje vremena,
increased productivity.

like I have to stay connected to work
da budem vezana za posao,
sa prijateljima i porodicom.
to friends and family.
