Josh Nussbaum talked about the rise of Ethereum with its scripting language and the ability for developers to include state in each block, which has paved the way for smart contract development.

He has compiled a list of all of the decentralized blockchain-based projects that he has been following and was able to dig up through research, along with recommendations from friends in the ecosystem.

The output of his work was a market landscape, with an overview of broad categories he has identified such as: currencies, developer tools, sovereignty, fintech, value exchange, shared data, authenticity and other.
