Cyberpunk Future Arrives Faster Than Expected Amid Bitcoin Price Downturn
The sci-fi subgenre known as cyberpunk has long imagined a future of chrome-plated mercenaries, cyberspace cowboys, and hackers battling globe-spanning corporations. Four decades later, much of that future has arrived, but not in the way its creators expected.
Brain-computer interfaces like Neuralink, AI-powered smart glasses, and increasingly sophisticated robotic prosthetics have begun to bring science fiction's chrome-plated future into reality.
The technology is coming faster than anyone predicted. A handful of technologists are now working on bringing this vision to life. However, there is no single person or company behind this development. Instead, it's a collective effort from various innovators and researchers.
Meanwhile, in the world of cryptocurrency, Bitcoin has been struggling to regain its footing. The price of BTC has dropped by 1.29% over the past 24 hours, with a current market capitalization of $93.8 billion.
