Can Crypto replace land?

 Can Crypto replace land?


This might seem like an odd question, but bear with me.  The whole global banking system has been built around land appraisals and little else which has always been a problem.  To access credit  for its citizens, it has been necessary for governments to provide default guarantees just for good business to appear and evolve.  So surely we can do better.  The government is even the ultimate guaranteer of the land as well.

Banking top to bottom is done against a government default mechanism..

Now government can extend its guarantees in crypto whose value must trend upward as fiat money is debased.  It can extend credit based on lifetime earnings denominated in crypto.  In that way, the only thing depreciating is the lifetime involved.  In this way, a human lifetime can be safely monetised.

Why not discount the value of a forest in one century?  My central point is that crypto itself cannot be formerly debased which means discounted value has a secure value today.  This then aloows the future value of that pine forest to be entered as a secure asset today, even if it will not be harvested until the 2080s for its value then.

Crypto avoids debasement as a hidden tax scheme.  Thus whole classes of assets whose life cycle is outside human experience can thus be monetised and used to create long term secure bonds.
