I&#x27;ve been to Etherium&#x27;s website, I&#x27;ve looked over the wikipedia entry, but I still don&#x27;t understand what it actually is.  Best I can figure, it&#x27;s a replacement for &quot;the internet&quot;.<p>I&#x27;m pretty technically literate, but I have to admit I&#x27;m at a complete loss as to why this project matters (let alone what it does).  Could you enlighten me?
