image Ethereum and long tail

  • The ā€œno killer appā€ and ā€œhelps the long tailā€ that came out of this.

  • The emergence of ethereum appears to be a no-brainer, as it will be implemented at a cost in areas where high demand can be expected.

  • Lower infrastructure costs will allow for the emergence of things we havenā€™t seen yet on the periphery that havenā€™t received much attention.

    • What was ignored because demand and cost did not seem to match is now being realized
    • This is ā€œsomething that is not recognized as being in high demand at this time,ā€ so there is no way to answer the question of what the killer app is at this time.
  • Predictability of demand

    • In the graph, demand is drawn as a simple line for pictorial reasons, but of course it is not possible to predict accurately in advance, so the line will be wide and blurred.
      • The same thing can be estimated higher or lower by different people.
    • Therefore, after a product is made, its value is often evaluated as ā€œthis is surprisingly convenient,ā€ and demand often increases later.
      • Easier to evaluate after results are achieved.
      • That a killer app can be created after the fact.
      • When computers were created, it was unforeseeable that software services would be created that would be used by billions of people around the world
    • The act of trying to get attention by talking about an idea while the thing is not yet ready may be a streak in this composition.
      • Itā€™s faster to talk about an idea and get feedback than to build it and get feedback, so they gravitate to that.
      • Trying to talk about an idea without implementation takes away from creating something ā€œhumble, but not yet, and beneficial when it can be doneā€.
