According to BlockBeats, on September 18, BlockBeats reporters reported on the scene that Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin gave a keynote speech on “What Excites Me About the Next Decade” on the first day of the TOKEN2049 main venue:
People tend to say it’s still early days for crypto, we’re still building the infrastructure. Really, how long did it take for something like the internet to come to fruition, and I think people have been saying that almost since Bitcoin was launched. And one of the real challenges we face now is that it’s no longer early days for crypto today.
Ethereum as a project has been around for over 10 years, and in the 15 years since Bitcoin was created, we’ve seen things like ChatGPT go from being completely non-existent to suddenly rising to prominence, completely changing people’s understanding of AI.
So the question we have to ask ourselves is how exactly should we view all of this? Are we really still in the early stages? My answer to this question is that I don’t think we are early in crypto, but we are definitely in a special stage.
