I never understood the big deal with eth anyway, but the whole hardfork thing just cemented the shitcoin tag for it in my mind.   Bitcoin is money, and the rest of these clown coins are destined to fail.  Especially if they try to reverse a hack by forking.

If someone steals a hoard of bank notes from a bank those notes don't become un-spendable. If the police never figure out who robbed the bank the robber keeps the money. It's the same with Bitcoin, a thief robbed Bitfinex and gets to keep the money provided the police never figure out who robbed it.

With Ethereum stolen coins become un-spendable so it's not proper money.

Bitcoin takes the best approach for a coin that is money.
