Good post. there is so much going on right now that it is difficult to make much sense of it I saw an article with IBM saying they will launch a counter to Ripple using blockchain but without the coin and as a result it is simply cheaper. We are in a time where the industry needs to both police itself to weed out the imposters and force itself upon the mainstream so we can get a point of use cases we can point to that prove and validate the direction. It will not be easy and I think that because everyone has called out the traditional banking and money systems it makes things that much harder. they will not go down without a fight and they have lots of power. Again the key is to self-police ratter than wait for heavy-handed regulation and to speed up the use cases rather than so much infighting about whose tech is best. Any thoughts?
