I don't understand what your objective is. Yes, incentives help spur change in behavior, but I don't see what change in behavior you're wanting to effect.
Judging by the forum you're posting this on, I'm surmising that your objective is to get people to use BTC. If that is the case, then judging by recent events, the focus should be on achieving parity with the existing currency systems, especially in terms of trust, security, reliability, accountability, and soforth. If people are as rational as I gather this forum assumes them to be, then on something like money, there's not an incentive large enough to convince someone to use a new system that cannot perform as well as the existing system (i.e., according to any sort of a baseline, bare-minimum acceptable manner), aside from the prospect of making a quick buck by screwing over his fellow man before the bottom falls out.
If BTC is as good a principle as y'all are claiming it to be, then stop trying to focus on getting more people to use them and focus on getting the infrastructure up to par. A better system, by definition, subsumes and surpasses the lesser system. Can you honestly say that the current infrastructure (the exchanges, etc.) are as good as those for traditional currencies?
Until such time as parity is achieved, discussing terms like the NEW WORLD ECONOMY is pointless - good for nothing than playing buzzword bingo and daydreaming about how you're going to be the driving force for the obviously inevitable paradigm shift.
And that's the optimistic take on it - honestly, when I see discussions like these, all it seems to me is that you're trying to get morevictims suckers investors to put their money in the pyramid scheme system to improve your profits before everything goes tits-up.
P.S.: To be clear, I'm not trolling or flaming. I have my strong doubts, but I'm curious to see where the whole system goes, and I do wish everyone here well. However, I don't see a point in pulling punches either.
