We recommend a read of the Bullshit Job Theory (we loved the book, though the summary is just as good) by anthropologist David Graeber.

While we won't comment on the issue of UBI (since there is not enough data or precedence for anyone to come up with a conclusion), our Geckos do agree that a change in society is needed. Will a decentralised, uncontrollable , censorship-resistant, peer-to-peer, apolitical payment system helps to bring about the change? We certainly hope so!
