There is a white hat attack. It seems most coins are secured.

fun
and yeah OP, i agree with you. but the main point of making jokes with these is the fact that people still buy ethereum... even with that said in this topic people still belive... that's not hope, that stupidity.
That is old news. Today we have the hard fork:
https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/4r9yud/the_current_hf_status/?st=iq9k6bus&sh=d4303e35
From what I see there, most people support the hard fork. So maybe the hard fork will be implemented.
The problem is that if the DAO holders get back their Ethereum, they might dump the coin immediately.
But I heard most of the DAO holders are long term investors of the Ethereum, they might not dump to fast.
Sooner or later they will reach a breaking point. In 2 - 3 years I think some of them would have to dump if no bank or company uses the Ethereum blockchain. We've seen this happen to NXT, Bitshares plus others. They just fell from the top 10 at coinmarketcap.
