I think a lot of the technologies and ideas are going to be important, but I don't think any of the current cryptocurrencies have long-term potential. You can't pivot a currency the way you can a corporation, and I think that will make a difference in how long cryptocurrencies last. If you really wanted to make a ton of money on cryptocurrencies, you'd develop the Google to ETH's Ask Jeeves. I don't have the time to actually make a client -- but there's definitely some low-hanging fruit in terms of improving the marketplace. Satoshi proposed a brilliant solution to a distributed trust problem -- and we'll likely use the kernel of that idea for a long while to come -- but that doesn't mean the first generation or two of implementations are going to be long-term survivors.
