battery autonomous future

The trend in recent "innovations" where the main focus is powering something with a battery (usually a large lithium-ion battery), turning something into an autonomous pod, or a combination of both. The thing that's being innovated usually works better without a battery or operated by a human being. Coined by Justin Rozniak on the Well There's Your Problem podcast.

Autonomous Vehicle

A term coined by economist and futurist Karl Smith to refer to cars, trucks, heavy construction equipment light duty "wheeled drones" which operate without guidance from a human operator within or outside of the vehicle.

The term driverless cars will one day sound as anachronistic as horse lessons carriage. I suggest Autonomous Vehicle as it not only refers to all classes of vehicles but can and will be easily shortened to AV.

Protocol-autonomous-yet-liquidity-entangled

A state where a blockchain or decentralized network remains sovereign in its code and consensus rules but is economically bound to traditional financial systems through ETFs, custodial holdings, and institutional liquidity cycles.
It’s free by design — yet dances to Wall Street’s rhythm.

Bitcoin’s protocol is decentralized, but its price moves with the Nasdaq — it’s protocol-autonomous-yet-liquidity-entangled.
