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 have no skills (unless you count shotokan karate instructor...not to useful in a closed capsule going to mars) and/or
my ablity not to kill people in close sardineline space

hmmm...come to think of it perhaps the above is needed to get sent to mars as spam in the can for years on end

I will secretly send my robots to Mars first, and there they will covertly create mysteries that make Earth people curious about the Red Planet. These mysteries will astonish the unenlightened and create a meme of The Others. The Earth people will then go, as they always would, seeking answers. But whatever they find they must find within themselves, as there will be no answers out in the endless red desert.
