Bag hold + Lie your ass off and play games and cash out is the motive / agenda.
That's what the ETH supporters are currently doing.
After the hard fork, they all have to work longer as their $50 million will be lost back to the DAO. Let wait and see.
You do realize that ETH will lose all the value that the underlying technology (the blockchain) has? If they take back those coins, they are no better than the Fed and they lose decentralization and immutability. This suggestion is horrible. Nobody should have any right nor power to take anyone's coins in a decentralized system regardless of whether they are legit, stolen or whatever.
Correct. After this HF you must call it VBCoin, not ETH.
If 51% of the miners decide to fork, I think I will follow the majority and support the fork to get back the money from the attacker.
Satoshi had a term for that, he called it attacking the network:
As long as a majority of CPU power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to attack the network ... - Satoshi Nakamoto (bitcoin.pdf)
So, no, there has been no "hack" or "attack" so far, but Vitalik, Tual, and their cronies are working on one.
Soft forks are 51% attacks. At best, when done for relatively-benign upgrade purposes, they demonstrate a vulnerability of the network and should still raise some level of concern that the developers and miners are able to conspire to pull off a 51% attack. When done transfer control over coins, that is outright theft.
