Interview: Vitalik Buterin, creator of Ethereum

Vitalik Buterin is an impressive person. He reminds me of Matt Mullenweg, another technologist that I have immense respect for. What connect Vitalik and Matt in my mind is that they are both incredibly humble, have a tremendously broad view, and are working on enabling technology. For Mullenweg that means making it easy for people to publish and host websites. For Vitalik that means enabling a complete platform that a wide range of solutions can be built on. They share a strong push for decentralization. And while they have both done well economically, neither wants tremendous wealth.

This interview with Vitalik is interesting to me because it is so focused on specific topics that are most notable. It assumes a bit of knowledge of Ethereum, but the main points still come through.
