Title: ETH Fork | Mining Algorithm Change? | Bitmain Overvalued | GPU vs ASIC Post by: VoskCoin on August 26, 2018, 09:40:31 PM There has been a ton of debate regarding Ethereum, their mining algorithm, and how they can remain relevant. With the massive price drop in ETH recently, perhaps the Ethereum developers will be more interested in listening to the people that actually minted the coins they cherish? Hudson has been leading the push to discuss and solve this issue, their Ethereum github is the best source / place to voice your opinion.

ETH could indeed use a fork to revive it's value. There simply is too much going on without much response to the ETH dev team and frankly people are getting tired of waiting for their promises that seem to keep getting moved. 2017 was supposed to be the time for the promised POS algo change and soon 2018 will be over. Will they blow through 2019 without any significant changes as well?

If they made a bigger dag and played around a bit with some other specs it could be only the 1080ti 2080ti and Vega 64 work along with newer gpus coming out as for pos: POS = piece of shit Basically POS is putting money in the bank and getting some interest on it. Why on earth should I risk have 100 or 1000 eth coins sitting to get interest. Remember since the leader controls the coin he can change rules pretty easy and my 1000 coins getting 1% a month could be at his mercy. Since coin value can tank at any minute. I rather have 100,000 usd in a cd getting 2 % a year if I want interest.

Seems part of the effective route to being "asic resistant" used to love that term, now it feels like talking about an ex lol Title: Re: ETH Fork | Mining Algorithm Change? | Bitmain Overvalued | GPU vs ASIC Post by: VoskCoin on August 27, 2018, 03:40:32 PM eth devs are stinking rich now and don`t really care anymore. look how buterin turned from visionary genius to second-grade philosopher. I do feel that all these devs are so out of touch with the people that support their network at the base level . . the miners which also turn into promoters, future devs, and everything elseTitle: Re: ETH Fork | Mining Algorithm Change? | Bitmain Overvalued | GPU vs ASIC Post by: VoskCoin on August 27, 2018, 03:43:15 PM ETH needs to fork or it will die, like all other ASIC coins, except BTC.

There are plenty of cryptocurrency projects to support, with ETH continuing down this road isolating what I would consider their founding support base . . many will continue to move to other projects Ultimately I think most are left with the feeling of . . why even bother sticking around -- abandoned their miners and the coin is plummeting, I don't hold much ETH anymore and it was my largest holding at one point Title: Re: ETH Fork | Mining Algorithm Change? | Bitmain Overvalued | GPU vs ASIC Post by: VoskCoin on August 27, 2018, 03:43:45 PM ETH needs to fork or it will die, like all other ASIC coins, except BTC. what do you mean? things have been going great for ETN this year (sarcasm) Title: Re: ETH Fork | Mining Algorithm Change? | Bitmain Overvalued | GPU vs ASIC Post by: tg88 on August 29, 2018, 01:32:39 AM Let's see what the consensus will be on the 31st.

I rather have 100,000 usd in a cd getting 2 % a year if I want interest. This in my opinion is the reason why I think ETH is way way too centralised because the ETH devs have basically too much control. That entire DOA hack basically proved how much control the ETH devs have. Most don't remember because most us of weren't around in 2016 but there was actually a vote whether to fork or not to fork. The voting ended in favor of not forking but the ETH devs forked anyways. Same with the issuance reduction last year from 5 to 3 ETH. BTC doesn't have this issue and this is why its dominance is high and why it deserves the price it hold. It took me years to realize that centralization is very very bad for anything crypto related. Most likely the only non-centralized coin is Bitcoin itself.

Title: Re: ETH Fork | Mining Algorithm Change? | Bitmain Overvalued | GPU vs ASIC Post by: Piskeante on August 30, 2018, 03:26:26 PM ETH devs are not going to fork to make the coin ASIC resistant. This has never been said by any dev. Indeed, they made a poll to ask people, and 52% of the votes were to fork to invalidate ASICS, which, by this time, should be almost 60% of the current hashrate of ETH and being a big centralized coin since very few people control the amount of coins generated.
More over, they will apply Constantinopla, which, among other things, they will reduce from 3 to 2 ETH per block, which will make mining absolutely inviable for 95% of the people at current prices. Not only this, this changes will be implemented on October 2018, so i month away and mining ETH will be gone for all of you. The real problem of ETH is scalability. ETH can do only 15 operations per second with current block of 1mb. There is no solution for this (that's why they created ETH Classic) which was born has a "fork" for ETH to solve that issue, but it didn't. ETH is just a very well marketed product that will die very soon and i've been warning about this a lot of times.

by the eth devs and asic shills discussing reducting block reward only, or forking Asics and reducing blook reward. So far most of the support serms to be for Asics. They are discussing all this in a meeting tomorrow so leave your imput as gpu miners. https://github.com/ethereum/pm/issues/55 Title: Re: ETH Fork | Mining Algorithm Change? | Bitmain Overvalued | GPU vs ASIC Post by: tg88 on August 31, 2018, 05:56:19 PM any news?
