Interesting and wide ranging interview with the creator of Etherum.
“Vitalik Buterin is one of the most well-known and best-loved figures in the crypto/blockchain world — well-known because Ethereum, the blockchain platform he co-created (with Gavin Wood) has become the platform for the entire web3 world, and best-loved because he’s very clearly just a smart, friendly guy who just wants to build cool stuff and not rip anybody off.“
Metcalfe’s law – which states that the value of a network increases with the square of the number of users or nodes – works very well in comparing relative valuation differences across cryptocurrencies.
Digital assets, crypto, or, as it has been rebranded, Web 3.0, is absolutely worth looking into, not least because of the VC money going into it.
The number of developers working in Web3, as seen in this chart, is exploding and doesn’t fall with falling prices (full slide deck worth a flick).
To stay one step ahead this was a good piece from the Generalist, where Mario goes around asking those in the know what the next trends and most exciting projects are.
Some really cool, deliberately slightly out there stuff.
