What's the actual plan for the fork? Are they just freezing and returning funds to old owners? This means loads of eth dumps. They should just cut off the rotten limb and burn the lot. Id say its the only shot they have at saving eth.
I heard that there will be no soft fork to freeze the coins due to a buy. There will be just a hard fork.
So after all that drawn out debacle, they still had to opt for the hard fork? If they were gonna end up here, why not cut straight to the chase? It seems like they are drawing out what will be the obvious decision.
It's only 23 days since the DAO hack... and a HF is ready to go.
In contrast, I doubt if Bitcoin leadership could agree to order a pizza in 23 days...
Instead they would organize another glitzy conference as a smokescreen.
Did you know that RIGHT NOW to send $100 USD...
BTC costs $0.900 with "likelihood" of getting 1 confirmation in 20 minutes (2 blocks)...
ETH costs $0.005 with almost certain 1 confirmation within 15-20 seconds.
Did you know that crypto businesses like mining pools that send a lot of tx...
Are rapidly diversifying away from using expensive BTC money transfers?
