i thinkt there is so much work going on with ethereum.
the most valuable thing in crypto for the long run is in my opinion trust!!
if you see bitcoin and eth on the top of coinmarketcap.
why is it like that?
both are not the fastest blockchains.
there are so many more projects out there which are having better products.
why they are not better positioned? => TRUST.
bitcoin and eth could develop much more faster.
but they are not allowed to make mistakes.
so if you wanna have a clean product it will take soooo much time.
BUT,... you can not buy trust,... you just could work on it.
and ethereum to me looks like it is having a lot of trust!!
eos is so much faster (i am holding eos!) but more as a hedge.
but there voting model is sure scaring really good projects,... because they know if there are 11 of the 21 masternodes are saying,... we dont like anything on our chain,... they could (potentielly destroy it)
i like the way they are working.
they dont do big shoutouts!
so my point of view.
i am not sure if eth can beat bitcoin (if there is a bug in bitcoins code,... maybe)
if there is a government coin coming out (FEDCOIN
) ,... maybe bitcoin is getting problems.
cryptospace is developing slowly!
and if something needs time,... then because it will be made as good as possible.
i like it that eth is open source,... so everybody can see the code,...
of course,... other project can copy the code.
and make something better out of it.
but in the end TRUST will win.
and ETH is having the biggest developer community,... (bigger than bitcoin if i am not wrong - plz let me know)
i think eth will rise in satioshi value to bitcoin!!
we are so far down on the ground at the moment!
and if we want / will live in a decentral world,...
and i think it will take time,... but eth will scaling later great!
1 more thing
if casper is coming,...
there will be masternodes (there was some rumours,... with around 1000 eth. you can run a masternode)
this will push up the price radicly.
(just think,... in todays world you get interest rates around 0-2%)
and if you see ethereum as TRUSTFULL.
there will be big money coming in and take the rates from the masternode.
and if there will be some usage for ethereum (and i am sure there will be in future!!)
that there will be a lot of people who wanna be part of it.
plz give me your thoughts on that!!
