Cryptocurrencies and Technology

What do you think about this?

That's what happens when you need to minimise bloat, you get infinite loops due to fucked up types and no real constants. The call stack depth of 1024 makes sense though. If it didn't have a sane depth, it would be and to DoS the network with enough gas afaik

What do you think of chainlink

Yeah. I'll list them all down:

aren't the lower transaction costs a tangible benefit?

yes, Bitcoin

The Ethereum apps I've seem so far are just other cryptocurrencies built on top of Ethereum or literal ponzi schemes.

I want to believe, but Ethereum just looks like a neat toy with a bunch of hype.

Because that's the easiest stuff to make, and it's also much easier than renaming "bitcoin" to "GarlicBoner" in the source of bitcoin core. There's some good stuff and more is always coming. Stuff like EtherDelta, Gnosis, Leeroy, Augur, A bunch of IPFS stuff, or CryptoKitties show what can be done. It's a turing complete computer so you could write anything, even I have a couple ideas for actual substantial programs (when I'm out of uni I'll be implementing them).

No idea what that is, I will look into it, 99% chance it's absolutely dogshite though


I guess, but BTC has lightning networks and everything else has pretty low fees as it is.

Well, I went though the top 100 on coin marketcap and picked the ones I thought would appeal to you, OP

0x (ZRX) a decentralized exchange. This is the actual DApp: 0xproject.com/portal
Status (SNT) Ethereum Mobile OS that isn't Google Android but will probably fail but is interesting none the less: status.im/
Counterpart (XCP) / Counterparty DEX and ( youtu.be/WUuEuEjCarE ) pretty sure this is the actual exchange: xcpdex.com/matches
FunFair (FUN) which has a real program I believe and you can really gamble with the tokens
Dent (DENT) is for decentralized roaming/cell data exchange but still being developed but very promising
GameCredits (GAME) I have on my desktop (pictured) and looks like I can literally purchase stuff
Steemit (STEEM) / Steem Dollars (SBD) Notice how the people's comments have a $ amount. Some people are paid to participate instead of the site?: steemit.com/hot
Kyber Network (KNC) which is another decentralized exchange for Ethereum tokens: ropsten.kyber.network/
and... BAT/Brave browser like you said
