BlockBeats News, August 8th, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin posted on Farcaster, stating that the "cultural difference between the United States and China is about 4 times the cultural difference between two generations that are about 30 years apart."
However, I predict that as technological progress accelerates and the world becomes more interconnected, this ratio will reverse, bringing unexpected consequences and impacts. (For example, longevity technology itself may become a kind of 'cultural preservation' method.)
