Ethereum Technical Community I saw in 2014-2017
When the price of Bitcoin rose above 10 billion dollar, in the autumn of 2013,
I started to research what it is technically. Then I was not interested in it since it is mere money. Since I was a carpenter, I thought that I was not the man who decentralize central banks, and the thought was still until I saw vitalik talks about ethereum on youtube in the beginning of 2014.
At spring 2014, I was watching the development of ethereum community, through gitter channel or twitter. There was ~ 20 people I remember now.
