Ethereum is fascinating but I'm withholding excitement until I see it actually take off. It's easy to make lofty claims and promises. Regardless of whether or not Ethereum itself is a working solution, it or something like it will eventually be widely used. The potential for decentralized technology is mind blowing. It's going to be an interesting next few years.

Really a ton of disruptors have happened over the past few decades. Decentralized technologies are growing. Very interesting time to be alive. I was born in the early 80s. I think it was just about the right time to understand the technology limitations of the past and current possibilities... before it all comes crashing down

Potential, yes. After reading through the white paper for this a little bit ago it's really amazing how simplistic all of the coding is.

The interesting thing about the whole development process is how diverging some of the directions are. On one hand you have people that are trying to move to a more, I guess, "centralized" approach and on the other hand you those (like Ethereum) that are moving the opposite way. It'll be interesting to see which side the money ends up on as I'm fairly confident that will drive the general development direction going forward.
