This is what I hope too, but it's not happening here. Online fiat banking is so efficient for online payments, I can't even use crypto to pay for all the online shopping I've done during the lockdown. I would be willing to use it if it's allowed, cause I feel like it's my responsibility to use it for it be mass adopted by the people. But yup, it's hard trying to use it. So we have to start from somewhere. If there's btc available, I would gladly try it even though it's expensive at some point.
And yup, we all are advancing in the technological age faster than before, students are into online classes, work from home set up for some, non stop meeting through zooms, but I think after it all got back to normal, we will all have face to face meetings soon.
I really think that there are going to be a lot of things that are never going to go back the way they were, and one of those are business meetings, businesses spend a lot of time and money in sending executives all over the world to try to close down some deals and this was incredibly expensive, obviously there are some companies that can afford it but many small companies are probably going to change the way they operate and instead they will prefer to use online meetings instead and save themselves the money.
I agree with you.
Our future is a world in which virtual reality will play a big role. Office workers can now work from home. Meetings and business meetings can be held remotely. Imagine workers studying their profession in a virtual simulator. Commercial real estate prices will fall. Residential real estate will acquire great importance (now it is not only a house, but also an office).
Will the tourism industry recover? I think no. There are several reasons. First, the Covid-19 pandemic, and secondly, the general drop in the standard of living of the population.
