Maybe some of you have heard of the Mars One project, where basically starting 2024, 4 people will voluntarily embark on a journey to Mars to live there permanently, with 4 more people being sent every 2 years.

With this being the case, do you see Mars One leading to anything significant in the future? Maybe the start of a new economic frontier?

Will the ability to create cryptographic currencies, seemingly at will, come into play?

Let your imaginations run wild ion anything I didn't mention if you wish, because I fall into that temptation at times when reading about it, kinda like with the whole idea of sea steading. Grin

I can't get people who are going to live in space and who spend a lot of money on it.  Our planet is beautiful and still there are lot of things which we haven't learnt and there people haven't been.

Your comment is so small minded. If some people go to Mars, then there are still going to be plenty of people on Earth to learn more about it. Not to mention that what we might learn from Mars could help up understand Earth a little better.
