After the DAO exploit ethereum has ben losing grounds. Now I don't trust it and many others are now seeking to find another coin or project that can offer the same features but without the same flaws
If you do not trust it any more, it is better to sell it and do not care about it and waste time in the forum.
That is right. Too many trolls in the Ethereum thread. If they do not agree with hard fork, they can spend some money to mine not to fork.
Some people are mining the old chain at the moment. But the hash rate is quite low. They can get a lot ether.
The old chain is still in tact ("Classic Ethereum"), and people mining on it may be able to get a lot of (Classic) Ethereum, but it is also virtually worthless by comparison to Eth, so not really very compelling.
