Would you rather go to the past or the future?⌛

[LazarL]

Hey stake fam,

I was talking with some friends about time travel and realized everyone has a different opinion on whether it’s cooler to go back in time or leap forward.

Personally, I’d choose the past.

I’d love to see history unfold with my own eyes and maybe even meet some famous figures.

What do y'all think? 

[ganamgn]

 Choose the past, to correct the past.

[enigmanoishi]

past is the only correct answer

I think this is a really interesting question. I would personally love to do both for very different reasons. All through my adult life, I've enjoyed music from a time a I wasn't born in, and it would be a great thing to go back in the past and witness how that music naturally unfolded, watch my favourite bands live, and live in the rock and roll era which doesn't exist anymore. It has always fascinated me how cool everything looked before the digital age, so going back in the past would mean, enriching the experience in real time, rather than vicariously experiencing it in emotion, nostalgia or memory. The cassette, film camera generation, hahahhaha, and how everyone always looked super cool in how they dressed up. People seemed much more alive and not consumed by the internet. So, in general, I would like to experience life before the digital age. 

As for the future, this is a little more personal, but I wanna witness something in my life that depends a lot on time and circumstances, and know if all the effort that I’m putting into it right now isn’t for nothing. But I’m not entirely sure I would just like that ending to be something I would enjoy, because isn’t the future a sum total of lived experience, and it’s the journey that counts? So maybe it won’t be much of an experience, but it will be sweet to witness that something I put my heart into still exists 40 years from now, hehe. 👀

Both options are really tempting. It’s honestly hard to choose. Going back in time would be amazing to see how things actually were and experience them firsthand.

But I think I’d still choose the future. I’m just more curious about what’s coming next and how things will turn out.

The past is important, and we can learn a lot from it, but I feel like it’s better to focus more on what’s ahead rather than looking back too much.

Really nice topic!
Ill choose the past and see if I would have done some things differently if i could get another chance.
 

[MarkoCo]

Definitely the past 😄
The future looks a bit too unpredictable for my taste, so I’ll just stay where the memories are already sorted.

[lasiempreverde]

The past of course... all bet will win

[bharath621]

Doesn't matter, it's a win win situation 😁 go to past and bet on the matches ,or go to future and note down the winners 😉..

[DamjanTo]

Hmm 🤔

I’d say the past as well… I don’t want any spoilers about the future 😭 Living in ignorance is bliss

Going back to the past would make you want to change something that has already happened. Doing that could change the outcome of your present, which would affect your future. Even the slightest change in your past could mean that you were never born or your world might not exist at all.

Being here, in the present, is a good and safe position, but if your future self were to visit you, you would have something to guide you, but it could also change the outcome of your future’s past. Aand you would break the perfect chain of time. You would always want to “fix” something, and it would eventually lead to a loophole.

So, the beginning is the end, and the end is the beginning.
It’s best to stay here, in the present.

I would choose the past to buy Bitcoin in abundance. Hehe

I would love to go back to the past so I could relive my childhood. I had a very beautiful childhood full of love, and I would gladly return to that time and experience it all over again.🧡

[KatarinaDo]

I’d go back in time. I would love to relive some things and feel them again. I'm so nostalgic about my childhood.  🥰
