One of the richest young people in the world and Ethereum (ETH) bringing to life a large ecosystem such as Vitalik Buterin, He is also known for his foresight ability.
Although Buterin stated that the DeFi world will grow by giving life to a whole DeFi ecosystem with smart contracts, it seems that he could not predict a development in this world.
As soon as we enter 2022, Buterin went back to the past and gave a self-evaluation of some of the statements he made in the past, not his plans for the next year, as many celebrities do.
Buterin, who made very positive predictions about Bitcoin (BTC) before ETH was released in 2015, said that it was actually Iran, Argentina, Chinese and Africa He emphasized that it would enable wealthy citizens of countries such as these to escape censorship. Buterin’s prediction soon came true.
In addition, Buterin reminded that on the first day of the year, the acceptance of both cryptocurrencies and stablecoins is high in Argentina and that people now transact with USDT. After these two successful predictions, Buterin shared one unsuccessful prediction.
Buterin Misses These 2 Developments
Buterin, who predicted DeFi development in Ethereum’s whitepaper, NFTHe couldn’t think of them.
Buterin stated in his post that he knew about the world of DeFi, but completely missed NFTs. Buterin, the biggest thing he missed DAO administrations reported that.
A lot correct (basically predicted “defi”), though incentivized file storage + compute hasn’t taken off that much (yet?), and of course I completely missed NFTs.
I would say the biggest thing I missed in the details is collusion issues in DAO governance: https://t.co/cezOk10KQ0

Despite this, the fact that the famous name has produced an ecosystem that leads everything that he counts and misses now shows how successful he is.
