Ethereum, ICOs, and Rocket Science
In this talk, Andreas ponders the concept of "killer apps" within the constraints and capabilities of each blockchain ecosystem, and what the essence of Ethereum is. He also examines the recent influx of money sharks and ICO hype, too excited to resist the siren song and achieve before aiming for the big boom of a moon orbit. A rocket is what happens when you do governance on explosives, and great power requires even greater responsibility. This talk took place on March 15th 2017 during the Cape Town Ethereum meetup at the Deloitte Greenhouse in Cape Town, South Africa: http://ift.tt/2typkjZ RELATED: The Lion and the Shark: Divergent Evolution in Cryptocurrency - https://youtu.be/d0x6CtD8iq4 The Killer App: Engineering the Properties of Money - https://youtu.be/MxIrc1rxhyI ICOs and financial regulation - https://youtu.be/Plu_WX3Gs8E Initial coin offerings (ICOs) - https://youtu.be/Q5R8KuxV4A0 The token ICO explosion - https://youtu.be/vdaW8NtJXuQ Altcoins and the scaling debate - https://youtu.be/slbpdW-H3yk Andreas M.
