I love this article. I'm very much inspired by what is written here, but for the most part can't find an 'itch' to scratch.

Right now I'm just building stuff I consider is cool / fun and see how it goes from there.

Just curious, what do you find cool / fun?

Unprecedented applications mostly enabled by new / disruptive technology. Things that do scratch my itch (even though most of them don't resonate with others)

Right now I'm working on Ethereum dApps as I have a strong feeling that the world will gravitate towards p2p / distributed tech and Ethereum is arguably one of the key technologies that will bring us there

I can't wait to see how the Ethereum ecosystem progresses from now up through sharding. Plus the drama is priceless entertainment.
