Technology has always existed—it's a matter of perspective. What seems revolutionary today becomes tomorrow's normal. We've gone through many technological evolutions: agriculture improved yields to feed growing humanity, machinery replaced hard physical labor, and now AI and robotics can replicate most human work. But unlike previous transitions, we don't have a replacement industry that can absorb the volume of workers needed. Earth cleaning is the only clear new industry on the horizon, but beyond that, no clear replacement exists. The question isn't whether jobs will disappear—it's whether our traditional work model is still valid. We need to adapt faster: learning must become lifelong, work must shift from necessity to purpose, and Universal Basic Income (UBI) is urgent to provide security for all. O coin has been specifically designed to provide a universal, cost-free UBI that can help transition our civilization while solving issues like global mass migration and financing vital activities such as earth cleaning.
