Vitalik now picking fights with people on twitter over "chinese bitcoin miners". I think it's totally out of place.

Also @OP: what did you expect? "Developement" needs to be funded, right?
Just hope he doesn't dump the rest on the inevitable decline.
That leg down will be so violent, i can feel it coming in already.

Not only the investors, but also the miners will lose a lot of money if the Ethereum goes belly up. The mining investment increase a lot recently.

So the miners will also be the supporters of the Ethereum because they have the vested interest in it?

I think so. If the Ethereum is dead, they will have no coin to mine at present. All other coins are too small.


So miners actually have an incentive to vote 'no' on a HF to protect their investemet. Let's see how that is digested by devs and community or if miners are sheep that just follow devs? If so, they'll loose out.  
It's a very delicate situation with the devs and parts of community being overinvested in dao-fuckup.

If the miners vote no, the hacker will get the 3.6 million Ethereum, when it dumps, the price will be crushed.
