Monster 100+ page #crypto report from @AutonoFinTech: next.autonomous.com/crypto-utopia/ First takeaway graph shows crypto-penetration per country, Japan in the lead w/ 83% awareness
2/ Succinct narrative of 3 waves of #crypto funding:

Bitcoin startups, Enterprise blockchain, ICOs.

#ICO funding in 2018 nearing double that of 2017.
3/ Smart contract platforms other than #Ethereum are growing... but w/ the top (@wavesplatform) at ~30 ICOs, all still pale in comparison.
4/ Failure rates of #ICOs are (expectedly) converging on that of early stage startups — buyer beware.
5/ There are a slew of other graphs worth browsing. Don’t miss the @lathamwatkins section in the back showing #crypto’s regulatory situation country by country. Here’s 👇 France.

1/ Blockchains collapse the cost of digital asset creation, custody & transfer, enabling *programmable value* of all kinds.
2/ Money, while an important application of blockchains, is a subset of the broader programmable value universe.
3/ A money like #bitcoin is likely to be the greatest *single instance* of value capture within the programmable value universe, which is why many of the top #cryptoassets today are battling for this position.

The mainstream has almost entirely forgotten about #bitcoin again.
In conversations with people from home, many recall the #crypto hype from a year ago, but have stopped paying attention since.
Yes, there are a lot more “decisions makers” that have gained a basic understanding of #crypto, which is great.

And the technologists & financial folks that feed off the bleeding edge continue to pay attention, invest, or build, just as happened in 2015.

$ETH has been leading the #crypto market of late, likely in anticipation of the Constantinople upgrade in mid-January which will cut supply issuance by 33%.
2/ When it's showing up as a @binance announcement, it's fair to assume the information is starting to get baked into $ETH's price: support.binance.com/hc/en-us/artic…
3/ Notable that the market's not seeing red at the mere mention of a hard fork, too.

Instead the focus is on the supply-inflation cut + upgrading #Ethereum over time.

Shows me that we have more informed market participants & the daytrippers are long gone.

21 events compressed into a humble #Twitter thread. Enjoy!

I was born & raised in #Medellin Colombia, an amazing & vibrant city in the middle of the mountains.

Please do not mention #Narcos or #Escobar when you hear Medellin!

Medellin is much more than that #eternalspring #innovation #Entrepreneurship #mountains #coffee #greatpeople

Went to a great school in #medellin & at 17 started #medicine not because I wanted to be a clinician but because I liked the #science & my family and #mentors told me #medicine was broader and could open more doors for me #VoicesIWS #Thread☝️@IWS_Network

Kicking off #WalkBikePlaces with an infrastructure tour on @BlueBikesNOLA. Several under way now; I'm on the one that looks at public art, placemaking. #bikeNOLA
First stop: Jackson Square, National Historic Site, named for Andrew J. Led battle that saved NOLA in 1812 but owned enslaved people. Should his statue come down? #WalkBikePlaces
Beautiful murals! Families of Plessy and Ferguson reconciled with art in celebration. Studio BE right across the street--big studio space in covered warehouse. @BlueBikesNOLA station right here at park.

I don’t want in any way to suggest that there isn’t a problem with VL and this type of advertising. But there are real problems with the conclusion Carole is trying to draw from this graph.
First, the graph shows an upwards turn well before the period she’s talking about (the week before the vote).
Second, the graph might just show that campaigning (generally) works.
