Setting the Stage at BlockShow Asia 2017
The atmosphere at BlockShow Asia is electric, bustling with energy and filled with pioneers in the crypto space. Joshua Lavin, currently contributing to the groundbreaking EOS.IO Blockchain software, shares his thoughts on this exciting event.
The Road to Crypto: Joshua’s Journey
It wasn’t a lightning bolt of enlightenment that led Lavin into the cryptosphere, but rather a steady accumulation of insight. He credits a friend’s introduction as the first step into what would be a new world for him—one where Blockchain applications in product development seized his imagination. In his words, “The types of products and the ways we can deliver value to users that Blockchain enables are transformative.”
A Market on the Move: Insights for the Crypto Community
Lavin candidly reflects on the wild ups and downs of the crypto market: “Everyone looks like a genius in a full market!” He reminds developers to stay connected, curious, and actively engaged in the community. Drawing parallels to the early internet days, he emphasizes the necessity of patience and open-mindedness in this ever-evolving space.
The Essence of EOS
When it comes to EOS, Lavin dives into technicality with a sparkle in his eye. He describes EOS as a general-purpose Blockchain that handles both data and communication layers, a canvas where developers can paint their DApps (decentralized applications). For him, the goal is simple: create a platform so appealing that developers will choose EOS to build their applications.
The Art of Software Development
Shifting gears, Lavin recommends a timeless classic for tech enthusiasts: “The Mythical Man-Month.” He describes it as an exploration of what it truly takes to successfully build software, emphasizing the artistry embedded in code. “The best software is really art,” he states passionately. His advocacy for this book showcases his conviction that understanding the nuances of software development can lead to better project delivery and innovation.
Closing Thoughts and Future Visions
As the interview wraps up, Lavin expresses upbeat anticipation for the future of Blockchain. He believes this technology is not a passing trend but rather a transformative force that is here to stay. His call to action? “If you’re a developer, develop! Add value to the Blockchain universe.” With over a decade of experience, Lavin’s insights offer invaluable guidance as we side-step through the complex terrain of crypto and Blockchain.
