Belief in big technological advances over the next century or so would bump up both the chance of some kind of technological catastrophe and of cryonic revival being possible. On the other hand, a higher estimate of (cryonics-disrupting) catastrophe should reduce the expected payoff of cryonics.
Doom avoidance and death avoidance evidently go together.
