You have to admire his optimism, even if it’s mixed with a whole lot of naïveté.

Once ETH2 is ready to fulfill these needs, the market will expect something more. From my reading, Moxie isn’t saying “ETH isn’t ready”, he’s saying “platforms move faster when they don’t have to wait for the protocol to make upgrades”
