El inversionista multimillonario y magnate de los negocios Mark Cuban cree que el cambio de ETH a prueba de participación previsto en ETH 2.0 podría ser un revulsivo y que podría catapultar el precio de Ethereum.
En un tuit, el propietario de los Dallas Mavericks dice a sus 8,4 millones de seguidores que Ethereum (ETH) tiene el potencial para apoderarse del mundo de los negocios.
“The reason ETH has a chance to blow up even bigger is that we have yet to really see business applications built on ETH smart contracts start to happen. When they do, every company will be ETH literate which will change the game. But layer 2s will have an important role to play too.”
Si bien ahora mismo no hay escasez de plataformas que compitan por ser el principal protocolo de contratos inteligentes, Cuban destaca que la muy anticipada actualización de Ethereum al modelo de proof-of-stake jugará un papel importante para mantener el dominio en el espacio criptográfico.
“It’s hard to keep up with all the different options and there really aren’t many hedging mechanisms for others. Of course, the path of [ETH] 2.0 will be important.”
Cuban, quien se está convirtiendo en uno de los grandes defensores de Ethereum, dijo a los traders de criptomonedas el mes pasado los motivos por los que debían comprar Ethereum en lugar de Bitcoin.
“[Bitcoin and Ethereum] effectively are platforms that enable a lot to happen. But Bitcoin right now has really evolved to be primarily a store of value and it’s very difficult to use it for anything else. If you want, it’s become digital gold.
You can use it as a platform that enables other things, but it requires a whole lot more, right. It requires wrapping or doing a variety of other things and it acts more as collateral than anything else in order for it to gain additional utility.
Whereas Ethereum, you know there’s just a lot more built-in utility in its organic and native form, right. Just the ability to use smart contracts organically and natively is just a significant difference right now. That’s not to say there aren’t Layer-2s on Bitcoin that, you know, create new value and create new opportunities. But you really have to work a lot harder on Bitcoin than you do on Ethereum.”
