This was in about 2015. Somebody was telling me how great is MaidSAFE and I should check it out, but when I wanted to ask her about technical details, she wasn't able to tell me anything specific.

It was before Ethereum launched, I really liked how passionately Vitalik was speaking on the stage about the altcoin he was making, and what kind of contracts can be created with a few lines of code, it was much more interesting to me than an altcoin with no technical information to tell you the truth :)
