He sounded fairly supportive of alt coins, he suggests there is a potential scaling problem with the governance voting system.
Even still, his dialogue is a classic deflection without being negative about Dash. Not that it's his intention to be negative, but not to show he doesn't know all that much about it. This is pretty much standard with highly eloquent individuals. Politicians are extensively trained in this form of discourse.
Very common on TV and radio... there is actually a technical name which I forget right now.
"I think you are completely wrong and only say bogus, but I'm not going to tell you what"
"Ah yes, it very interesting you mention that. And I tend to agree with what you say. Nevertheless, there are other who believe that what I say actually has strong fundamentals, and "bogus" is in fact a cultural phenomena with a high degree of subjectiveness. Did you know the etymology of "bogus" actually comes from late 18th century, originally in the US, denoting a machine for making counterfeit money?"
Now tell me truthfully, when you read this^ did you hear Andrea's voice in your head?

But honestly, I don't get it. I *think* all the innovations we see at Dash and Ethereum and other altcoins were directly inspired by Andreas. I guess only Evan can say if he was inspired by the things Andreas said, because I don't honestly know. I only started in this space in December 2013. But from that point on, I heard all these ideas first from Andreas. And I would think, being that we're following what he preached, that he would be so much more involved with altcoins, especially Ethereum and Dash. But he's stand-offish. So strange, that I can't help wonder if he has a chain around his neck?
