I doubt this will hold true in the long term. I build stuff on top of Ethereum and there seems to be huge interest and financial support for the platform. It is true that Zeronet works out of the box, but Ethereum seems to provide cleaner abstractions. The Web3 vision includes Zeronet functionality (decentralised applications, dapps). I think it all depends on the integration of Whisper and Swarm, which may result from a collaboration with the IPFS project and the Serenity PoS transition. The fact that there already exist node implementations in 7 different programming languages makes me optimistic. Another interesting project is Hyperledger/OpenBlockchain which is mostly focused on consortium/private chains but provides a pluggable consensus model. https://github.com/openblockchain/obc-docs/blob/master/white... If the Ethereum core devs can take the project to that level of standardisation, they win. Unfortunately, its dependency on a currency and the focus on the public chain will also attract some of the worse parts of the Bitcoin community. One of the major risks is also the need for backward compatibility. In the long term, code does not matter, standardisation does. |
