Re: Why Ethererum is dead in the water.

They all die. Btc is the internet. Nobody givez a poo bunches of lan

I agree Bitcoin is our base but I think we need 'systems' to trade in a decentralised way and to hold other assets including currencies, precious metals, stocks etc.

Only a fool wouldn't admit some improvements need to be made to Bitcoin, for one it's not even private, who wants everyone to see all their bank transfers?

but it's better to improve bitcoin itself, instead of making a new coin doing it, just add the damn thing to bitcoin, it is certainly possible

Bitcoin is like a huge tanker which will not change easily. There is a real risk of it Bitcoin to become obsolete if it continues to have a snobbish attitude.

What is possible is that regulators will relax or abandon the AML/KYC requirements -- and thus the ability for Bitcoin to be used anonymously gets sufficient competition from some altcoin secretly created by government, which would be able to compete as being less-expensive to operate as well as being a brand with corporate backing sufficient to cause growth from paid promotion.
