Part 13/15:
The discussion hints that if extraterrestrial life exists, it might also rely on blockchains and proof-of-work systems—proofs of energy and technology similar to ours—implying that advanced societies could be detectable through their blockchain activity or megastructures. However, the lack of signals might simply reflect the prohibitive scale and time delays in cosmic communication.
This perspective offers a hopeful note, suggesting that the universe’s silence is a function of physical constraints, not absence of intelligence.
