What happened? What if the Smithsonian was owned and curated by the internet? That is the question that many people are asking themselves as they hear about Arkive. Arkive is a company that is building the world’s first decentralized museum. This museum will be powered by blockchain technology, allowing pieces to stay close to their cultural roots. The company has just raised a $9.7 million round of funding and has purchased the original patents for the world’s first electronic computer- the ENIAC.
What is this significance, and how will it influence our culture and society? This is a very interesting question and one that I am sure will be debated for some time. Some believe this could lead to a more globalized world where culture and history are more easily shared. Others believe this could lead to the loss of cultural identity and the homogenization of society. The decentralization of great treasure ownership can be beneficial to society. It has the potential to distribute wealth more evenly and allow for more cultural inclusion.
The Future is Decentralized
This is an exciting time for Arkive and the world of museums. We are on the cusp of a new era where museums are no longer owned by a central authority but rather by the people. This could lead to amazing changes in how we view and interact with history. I, for one, am excited to see what the future holds for this company and the world of museums.
Do you think Arkive is doing a good thing by building the world’s first decentralized museum? Do you think that this could lead to a more globalized world where culture and history are
