Wrong thread bro.. go talk to Josh. Also ETH is a low market cap at $30 Bil.. And there's a reason your putting 5-7K into **** and I'm a ****ing cryllionaire. I told Josh and now I'm telling you, quit ****ing chasing all that bull****.

Something about Parity wallet being hackable and freezing 150M of Ether.

Kazuya rekt.

Wallet not hacked. Someone went in and deleted a library for the contract that parity uses. So anyone who created that specific contract inside and from parity is ****ed. The eth is stuck there because there's no logic inside the contract to do anything with it anymore. This is just 1 contract out of hundreds that eth possesses. Happens secure 100m$ + of ethereum

TheDAO 2. Further proof of just how insecure Solidity is in practice. Surprised the price hasn't moved more.

how has the price not gotten demolished?

lol, seems bullish to me

care to explain?

Well it locks up a ****load of ETH, possibly forever, reducing the supply. And nothing about the ethereum network itself was compromised. It's definitely not good news, but not terrible either.

lol if u think that the network is not comprised

Zero clue if its legit (not likely?), but its funny.

The point is that ETH has never been secure, the whole concept is flawed. The price is purely speculation, as it exists this news doesn't hurt its 'functional' value, speculating.

+1

No its not flawed, Vitalik knows his ****. He's very smart. I hear a lot of people say ethereum is flawed and almost never are they anywhere near willing to claim they are as smart has him on any related subjects. There are a few core devs that bash ethereum for being mutable.

They can't see the difference between the purpose for bitcoin and the purpose for ethereum. It's because they are coders and not well read on economics.

Ethereum is meant to be breakable and repairable at an instant. It's part of the design that deters types of attacks. That you can attack it and win but the network will just fork and move on is part of the early stages of its development.

Security has to arise over time through successive repairs. It's necessary for evolution. Its a riskier asset and will take time, but its the future, there is no doubt. I did what I could to try to move the poker industry to build on top of it.

Stop appealing to authority. Give us his arguments, we don't even have to know they are his.
And appealing to knowledge also does nothing to convince anybody. Give us the application of the knowledge for this particular subject, and we can discuss whether it holds true.
How do you determine what is an attack and what is legitimate usage? And who does the determination?

Eth has still never been hacked. Just like bitcoin hasn't been hacked.

Any hacks on ether are smart contract hacks that are the fault of those devs, not of ethereum itself.

Bitcoin was hacked, extremely seriously. Some random gave himself a bajillion BTC. A fork was done to roll it back. Otherwise, you are correct AFAIK.

He looks like a thinly veiled alien. Conspiracy theory: Putin had relations with a martian-in-captivity and out popped Vitalik.

yes true

Don't say I didn't tell ya. The fork being cancelled has the same effect as if it just happened. Printing CASH.. too bad I'm outta these forums now because all of the dumb **** newbs. You guys could really use better info from guys like me. Had to stop in to gloat on my vistory

ETH has not been hacked, but it's most prominent use case has, again and again. Artificial separation of things that belong together.

I can also say that food and wood does not rot. It's nature, water, microorganisms etc, which make it rot

You see, it's semantics, word games.

Like saying the USD is not stable bc it has lost 90+% of its value already.

While it is important to point out the the technology itself has not been hacked, you can't say that it works as a product if it's too difficult for users to use. Even if your users are stupid. The end result is the same.

If he was less greedy would it have worked?

Please clearly state what your prediction was and what you think the result is today.

I don't not see any correspondence and I see you say something like "it could go either way".

lol

Not the same effect at all. This significantly softens the crash that was bound to happen. It should be bullish but there's too many dummies dumping now that were holding for "free coin"

Yes I had a "disclaimer" in there, but if you read it you can see how I said I WAS PLAYING IT.

"Obv nothing is ever certain. ETH may dive with BTC upon the fork. I'm playing it as that a bunch of money from BTC will flow back into ETH. If it does, it very well may be enough to break ETH out from it's monster triangle which in turn would signal more buying. It could trigger ETH into the mode BTC has been on.

Tip from the top: Accumulate ETH with USD over the next 10 days until BTC fork."

Now that the fork is "over" the results have come in with a monster rip in ETH.
