Yeah... we need decentralization, but I can't tell Ethereum apart from any of the other many proponents who have claimed to have invented that system and technology. If we were to apply a tech adaptation of Aaronson's red flags for outrageous math claims to Ethereum (http://www.scottaaronson.com/blog/?p=458 http://www.scottaaronson.com/blog/?p=458) I'm convinced we'd walk away immediately.
- drcode 12y agoWell, I know of four systems that try to solve this problem: Codius, Counterparty, Ethereum, and Bithalo (in a limited sense.) I think all of the developers for each system would agree 100% that the other three have successfully solved the core problems, as well. Nobody is making any extrordinary claims that they have some sort of magical technology that others can't duplicate (and all of them except bithalo are open source, making duplication easy.) The only question is which platform will be first to deliver an experience that will attract main stream users, in terms of stability and functionality.
