dataism

A future wherein data are as valuable as humans, because without data, people may be helpless and even useless in a super high-tech world. See data driven.

Entrepreneur James Altucher has a crypto-centric definition. "Dataism is when crypto takes money out of the hands of humans and puts it into the hands of cryptographically provable math." See crypto glossary, techno-humanism and cybernetics.
