I fear for ETH future, almost all smart contract projects are using the PoS staking algorithm but only ETH PoW stands alone, this makes ETH different and one of a kind smart contract project, I think vitalik buterin will regret is decision after ETH goes PoS.
All you need to do is to stop relying on FUDs.
Will Mr. Vitalik let it happen? It surely not, he'd protect it and that is why despite much negativity we've heard in previous days, ETH still exists till now. That is how obvious that ETH would certainly survive and we never have to think about dying because this only happens to shitcoins. And if you know the function of these smart contracts in the market, I believe you just then change your view.
