Cars, Steam engines, Airplanes, Trains, the Internet, Radio, Phones, Mobile phones, Smart phones, Cinema, TV's, basically anything that is actually new technology?
I actually can't think of any new technology that reached maturity within 12 years of it's original prototype.

ETF's are a contract, they're not technology. By the way, BTC currently has 450 billion in net asset value, so...
- arcticbull 6y agoWhat technology do you use from 2008 that hasn't changed at all since then, and is also considered nascent?
- ric2b 6y agoI don't know but Bitcoin is definitely not it, it's seen multiple large improvements over the years.
- arcticbull 6y agoOh cool! Does it exceed 7tx/sec now? That's great news.
- alwillis 6y agoAs I type this, bitcoin's market cap is a little over $554 billion.
