> An Ethereum based on OCaml has an interesting potential. I see this kind of stuff a lot in the "cryptocurrency" space. When I was reading about Waves, for instance, one proponent unironically proclaimed that "It's built on Scala, which is a better architecture than Ethereum". I'm no Scala hater, but surely stuff like the implementation language isn't the most important variable in evaluating a new altcoin / cryptocurrency platform? This sounds a lot like hand wavy mumbo jumbo that's meant to convince non-technical "investors" to part with their cash / BTC.
