Except where they're wrong. You are incorrect in your statement, thus it is purely an ad hominem attack meant to strengthen your position as mentally superior. I certainly do not care enough to debate whether or not you are, and will gladly let you believe whatever you choose.


Which decentralised exchanges exactly? Please let's stick to what exists and not what is hypothetical.


This sort of alarmist, reactionary thinking has never fixed anything. As it stands, we have no evidence of this attack existing or being possible, other than a potentially spurious claim. We are not going to do anything until that status quo changes.


Transactions !== trades. During the block 202612 attack most exchanges suspended trading and deposits, which I expect they would do in this situation as well if an attack even exists.

I fail to see how you think I'm being smug. My statements are clear: right now we do not know if there is going to be an attack or if an attack is possible. We do not know the technical details of the proposed attack. Nevertheless, we do not discount the remote possibility, and are prepared accordingly. We will react and handle it as we have done so before, and as we will do so in the future if an attack occurs without an ominous 72 hour countdown. The countdown is largely irrelevant, our ability to rapidly react remains as if there were no countdown and an attack came suddenly and without warning.

I think it's clear that you and I are going to disagree here, given that you've already resorted to insulting me. As I do not want to get embroiled in mud-slinging I'm going to end this conversation permanently and step out and go walk on the beach with my wife. It's a Sunday afternoon, after all, and my life does not revolve around forum debates.
