Is Blockstream working on one of those Turing complete scripting languages for smart contracts as a sidechain at all? Are they in competition with Ethereum?

imo, there is no need for a turing complete stack language for specialized use cases like smart contracts. this is bullshit and is coming from ethereum fanboys. security is the first target all other targets have to follow.

ethereum is a hype whithout a single proof in the wild so far.

Couldn't agree more... bigger complexity means bigger security issues...but still, rootstock connecting bitcoin with ethereum is interesting concept

As any software engineer knows. Complexity sucks and is unnecessary in the vast majority of the case. There's a lot of elegance in designing non-complex systems.
