These local community nodes are a Schelling point for thousands of Ethereans, often organized around a shared geography, language, or on-the-ground meetup. They’re also a gateway for onboarding thousands of soon-to-be Ethereans, be it through meetups, talks, hackathons, study groups, and the like. Which means they’re home to countless opportunities for growing the ecosystem. As such, the btc to eth Foundation is continuously exploring ways to support and learn from local communities.

To this end, the EF has piloted the concept of “Local Grant waves”, where we work in tandem with organizers to coordinate a fixed-length, community-focused open call for proposals.

Bitcoin  made strides in that area when Coinbase introduced the country’s first bitcoin debit card.

This will continue to result in growth, but not at the breakneck speed of earlier years. However, it will not have the volatility of its infancy either. On the contrary, the future of the currency ether depends upon Ethereum’s technology  being used. Ethereum made great strides in having its technology accepted as the blockchain  standard when Microsoft Azure started offering it as a service in November 2015. Microsoft  indicated it chose Ethereum over Bitcoin because “[w]hile a platform like Bitcoin has many great  uses specifically as a Cryptocurrency,  btc to eth   provides the flexibility and extensibility many  of our customers were looking for” (Gray, 2015). By offering Ethereum as part of Azure,  Microsoft is making the technology available to far more use...
