No I don't think. I don't even think they (the devs) know the full consequences of what they are doing.

Frankly, I too am not sure what to think. The blockchain is not a playground. Where billions are at stake, you don't want to make even a single mistake, and you have to protect yourself against all possible scenarios. We'll see soon enough.

The version of Ethereum Casper you're referring to, Friendly Finality Gadget (FFG), was recently depreciated in favor of a mixed Sharding and PoS concept.

You can learn more about Casper chain v2 here: https://notes.ethereum.org/SCIg8AH5SA-O4C1G1LYZHQ?view#

I'll agree it is adventurous, but the Ethereum developers seem to have a lot of talent for making these things work.

Interesting article, I was unfamiliar in depth with Casper FFG. I will also check out what was posted regarding some changes. If Casper goes through, I think interesting opportunities for pooling could arise since it is expensive to run a node... Was it 1500 ETH?

Cheers!
