Joseph Lubin of ConsenSys and Ethereum Unleashes Epic Tweetstorm on Future of Blockchain and Crypto
Ethereum co-founder and founder of ConsenSys Joseph Lubin just dropped the mic on Twitter, outlining the reasons why he believes blockchain is a movement, and Ethereum is on top.
Lubin highlights the growing DApp ecosystem along with blockchain-based solutions to a range of different problems facing governments and financial service providers around the world – from Estonia, Dubai, South Africa, Japan, Switzerland and the Philippines to Chile.
According to Lubin, big business and enterprises “get it.” They’re advancing their own private blockchains while decentralized platforms such as Brave and Civic are growing. He calls the crypto community “weird and amazing”, while also calling out user interfaces that are getting “more beautiful by the day.”
Here’s an uncut look at Lubin’s epic tweetstorm.
