I'm writing a spy novel but can't decide which time frame I should choose - 2050 or 2010.

Advantages of 2050:
- It'll be unique.
- I get to give my geopolitical forecast for 2050.

Disadvantages of 2050:
- I'm not that creative when it comes to technology or social life four decades from now.

Advantages of 2010:
- It's easier to write about life today than 2050.

Disadvantages of 2010:
- Spy stories in the present is quite common, so it may not be that unique.
- I can not give my geopolitical forecast for 2050, which I really want to do.

So guys, I need your recommendations. Please recommend either time frame and tell me why. Thanks!
