Ethereum [ETH]The main factor is its application, says Pompliano

Anthony Pompliano, known as Pomp, founder of Morgan Creek Digital, talked about what 2019 has pending for Ethereum, during an interview with CNBC Crypto Trader. He also clarified how the blockchain would be chosen by developers in addition to Ethereum.

Anthony said that the main factor of Ethereum, at the moment, is represented by real applications, adding that several projects have been built. He went on to say that there were many ICOs who raised a lot of money claiming to build big things in 2017, stating that "two years later [current timeframe], we have seen some of these projects come to fruition ".

The founder also stated:

"What I really seek is adoption, right.The release of the product is the first step, I think many projects will actually achieve this goal, but what I want to see is that we can let you know a couple of hundreds of thousands of users on one of these or two of these applications and use this on a daily basis. "

Pomp added that this would be a "fantastic" milestone for Ethereum and would make a bold case for its potential in the future. This was followed by him talking about 2019 is the year of the upcoming "Killer App" on Ethereum. Here, Pomp said he did not "pretend" to know what the killer app will be, but look at the applications that users spend their time on. He said:

"I think there are a lot of developers who are building very interesting things, but it's just what the data tell us is that killer app and I think it will be something nobody expects so I do not even try to find to guess. "

Pomp has also clarified on the chain that developers would build on their dApp, if the chain is not Ethereum. He claimed that, in this scenario, it would be Bitcoin. He said that many applications will move to the more secure chain if there is "equal functionality". He said:

"So if you can create smart contracts on Bitcoin just like you can on Ethereum, all this parity of functionality and functionality is really important." Now, this can happen through things like lightning through the side chains, you know liquid RSK. that there are all kinds of things that people are building […] I think Ethereum has a place in the world in the future, I think Bitcoin will be much more important than people think today.
