  The Shadow Universe - Exploring...

  For most of human history, the night sky was a mystery filled with countless stars twinkling in the darkness. Ancient civilizations saw patterns in the stars and used them to guide their calendars, stories, and navigation. Yet, behind those points of light lay something even more vast and perplexing—the dark space between them. It wasn't until the development of modern astronomy that scientists began to seriously consider what might exist in the dark regions of the universe. At first, darkness was assumed to be simply empty space, a void where no stars or planets resided. But as our tools improved and our questions deepened, we started to understand that darkness in the cosmos holds far more meaning than we originally thought. 
  The idea that the universe might be filled with something unseen first gained traction in the early 20th century. Astronomers like Fritz Zwicky noticed strange behaviors in galaxy clusters. When calculating the mass of these clusters based on the visible matter, the numbers didn’t add up. Galaxies were moving too fast to be held together by gravity from the matter we could see. Zwicky proposed the existence of "dunkle Materie" or dark matter—something invisible but exerting gravitational pull. This was one of the first scientific suggestions that dark space might not be empty at all, but rather filled with mysterious forces and substances. 
  At the same time, other areas of study began to reveal more about what darkness might mean in a cosmological context. Observations of cosmic microwave background radiation showed that the universe had a very specific structure after the Big Bang, influenced by matter both visible and invisible. These early echoes from the origin of the universe suggested a cosmic framework shaped in part by things we couldn't directly detect. The darkness, once thought to be empty, was influencing the evolution of everything we could see.

  We live in a capitalist world in which supply determines demand. If you reduce supply or increase demand, society will be obliged to accept scarcity, whether genuine or perceived. On February 16, 2021, the artist Beeple sold his Everyday: The First 5000 Days for a record-breaking $69.3 million in cryptocurrency at Christie's auction house. No auction house had before authorized the sale of digital files created on blockchain technology, nor had they ever accepted cryptocurrencies as a payment option. Bitcoin shares have already climbed to over $24,000 during the Covid-19 epidemic of 2020, a 224 percent increase. Two months after Beeple's historic art auction, Bitcoin set a new high of more than $64,000 per share on April 14, 2021. As a result, everyone's attention was drawn to NFTs, new cryptocurrencies, and the blockchain.Visual artists and musicians, writers, videographers, and others in the creative industries became aware of NFTs and the benefits they could provide to the art community. While the physical world appeared to be shutting down, the digital cosmos survived, grew, and entered new paradigms. Using the Internet as a revenue source during a global pandemic was a clever, new, and modern way for artists to continue their livelihoods. Artists have been able to advertise themselves to a wider audience as the NFT industry increases and become more mainstream, even if they have a minimal history in digital arts. Well-known public figures also benefit, perhaps reducing financial chances for lesser artists. Major brand familiarity and high-profile influencers encourage transactions across large corporations. Celebrities are now not only producing limited edition NFTs but also branding their own "social money." Social currency is a type of cryptocurrency released by a brand, community, or influencer to make their fans feel important and a part of their particular fandom.This book examines the technical underpinnings of cryptocurrencies and blockchain, notably
