I agree with all of your thoughts but disagree with your calculation. First, I think the value of Ethereum will be much, much higher if it reaches its potential globally. Second, I still hold a decent chunk of ETH so I am not a "hater."
But I disagree with your Russian thesis. Russia wants to create its own national crypto. If they create a crypto - and they have been inconsistent in what they have said and what they have done - they will try to force adoption. It would be a slap in the face if they created something and then nobody used it. Somebody would lose their job or their head.
Maybe they fork ETH.
I agree. If you look at my Bticoin formula, I did use a global economy. For this formula, it was based solely on Russia's PPP, it can certainly be scaled globally.
My Russian Thesis may in fact be due to my lack of computer knowledge. I was suggesting that Russia may look to create their own currency ass a dapp on the Ethereum platform.
Is this unrealistic or not possible? Genuine question.... I'm not great with computers. lol
Thanks for adding to the debate,
