So regarding scripts and Bitcoin-Dev, what is the current thinking regarding re-implementing all of the scripts in Bitcoin?
Is anyone considering it? If so, how would it be similar or different from what they are proposing in Ethereum?
I worry about too much misplaced hype coming from Ethereum, leading to the problem Adam mentioned, so it'd be nice to take the wind out of their sails with a script 2.0.  Adam said in the interview that Mark Friedenbach (maaku) was working on a good implementation.  I doubt it'll be Turing-complete, like Ethereum's, as that's likely overkill/window dressing.
