right now and after the last pump (chinese have been very busy with ETH in last days), i think is a little bit risky to invest on ETH now, but is only my opinion, who know, maybe chinese guys don't want to stop it yet... :P

i bought some time ago. yesterday i sold some. the rest i will keep.
eth will takeover BTC when the block size problem won't be solved.

wait for the low ;)

remember that show called "LOST"?
do you even know what ETH is?
no one does ... except the whales ... it is what they want it to be ... there is no hard code ... it is simply ... whatever

do you mine it?
do you even know how to mine it?

for the most part ETH is ethereal ... no one knows ... not even the proponents :P

A bit slower volume than yesterday, but I don't see the price dropping any time soon, so good to get in ASAP

Who cares. Chinese people don't need a working blockchain to pump a coin to jupiter  ;D

Because without fundamental value, then the winners of the P&D are not the greater fools (which includes the vast majority of readers). Someone has to lose for others to gain in P&D that doesn't actually create adoption, network efforts and fundamental value.

No,

I think things to be KISS.

Everything I have read about Ethereum, it is not KISS.

The apparent complexity of Ethereum appears to me to be a marketing attempt to appeal geeks, but it is not necessary and therefore is poor design choice.

In my opinion.

Kind of like how OpenSSL kept on having issues due to the added code that was conceptually interesting, like hearbeat, but wasn't needed. So LibreSSL forked and removed the cruft, resulting in a simpler and thus better library,

See, one thing i hate are normal people doing nothing but hating on technology and other confirmed geniuses.  But I'll play along....ok bro, you're so smart.....where is your crapto coin? what are you doing w/your life? you are nothing more than a TROLL, HATER, and bogus fake trying to be smart person.  Quit it man, we see through you.  Keep your MAID, FACT, or DASH coin and keep them penny trades going.  You need a hug.

How butthurt are you?  

I am certainly not jealous of the insoluble technological quagmire that Vital et al are stuck in. They sold the future and were never able to solve the fundamental technological issues. I warned Charles about that when he was evaluating whether to join with Vitalik and launch Ethereum. Vitalik is a smart guy and they have some other smart guys. But they don't yet seem to realize that they can't solve the impossible. They are too young and inexperienced to see this. I am older with decades of experience so I can more readily detect when something is insoluble and need to move on to more plausible pastures. Which is precisely what I am doing.

You can speculate on how high the P&D will go, but just remember the majority must be bagholders in a coin which has no future means to expand the pie of adoption (due to technological clusterfuck).

I am not a hater. I respect the intellect of those devs working on Ethereum. I just have to be honest that they are stuck in a technological clusterfuck and are too deep in now to admit it to themselves. Eventually they will realize they failed. I even tried to save Monero from wasting more effort implementing RingCT and tried to convince them to look seriously at zk-snarks to see if that would solve the meta-data issue and also expand the utility from currency to simple scripts for RELIABLE privacy on PUBLIC block chains (especially important for corporations but maybe also for all commerce). I am trying to get them to think about real market strategies and not the "build it and they will come for unreliable anonymity" delusion.

so in this thread you're saying ETH is broken and can't be fixed, and in another you're saying its still early and it can be fixed.

I didn't say it can be fixed. I said they can continue trying to fix it and it appears to me that they are adding more layers of complexity on top going in circles like a dog chasing its tail and not knowing it. I suppose there is some 0.0001% chance they solve the implausible, but I have a deep understanding of the issue and I can see the odds are stacked against them. I say their odds of fixing it are akin to winning the Lotto. But I am not claiming 100% omniscience so we will see... I have to at least admit that I can't be 100% sure... but I am talking about my level of understanding and thus my appraisal of the probability of them solving the fundamental issues.

and quit name dropping like they KNOW you...

Charles knows me very well (and he left Ethereum long ago and one might assume he pocketed some of your ICO money). The others don't. (And thankfully for that otherwise they would be reading my posts and copying my block chain technology since I have some solutions, although I still don't have a solution for Ethereum's specific problem)

In particular they can't get scaling with sharding and still retain Consistency. It violates the CAP theorem. And they can't solve the economic Tragedy of the Commons on verification without centralization.

One can argue they will just centralize it (and perhaps even obfuscate that it is centralized in some techno-babble that no one can understand), and then continue innovating on a centralized platform. Well that defeats the point and won't enable huge adoption markets.

What a complete fucking loser. As soon as ETH passed LTC, you started your attacks. You start a thread and lock it, so there is no debate. You start a new thread with some BULLSHIT promo about LTC, and only one person shows up, and tells you its crap! LOL!

 ETH wallet is still in Beta. They even say that on their site. Exploring the Frontier presents vast opportunities, but also many dangers, and is not for everyone.


Please keep posting. It's funny to watch an idiot embarrass himself over and over.

PLEASE COME TO MY THREAD AND TALK ABOUT LTC! Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooser! Is that your marketing strategy? Attack a project that is constantly developing, so you can slide your LTC crap in? What a pathetic fucking loser you are. You are the bagholder hodling a shitcoin! You are the one who got duped into a pyramid scam. Complete fucking loser. I'm done with you! Just another idiot in this Bucket shop.

It seems like some big players may be doing something with ETH.  maybe IBM and I know Microsoft is doing something.  It is frustrating that there are not easy wallet options with ETH but I am sure they are working on that. Can you explain more about how it is a pyramid scheme as I don't know what that means with altcoins.

I've always hated litecoin.  And if you go on the litecoin subreddit you will see immense FUD against ethereum.

Litecoin has done nothing but hurt crypto since the day it was dreamt up.  I remember that sinking feeling reading about it. It showed everyone you could create a cryptocurrency in one afternoon without any thought or innovation and idiots would buy it and the early birds would get rich. I can only imagine btc would be at $10,000 today if that bag of shit hadn't been invented.

The only coins I've ever even wanted to own were Bitcoin (the first) and ethereum (by far the only coin thats really trying to push the boundaries of crypto)

The rest are quite blatantly scams with no academic or social merit whatsoever.

litecoin was dreamt up via analysing the mistakes cryptos made before it (ie main not being created so the dev could profit, which happen in everything before it) and avoiding them, and with that it did a great job and its why its been the most successful alt todate.

and for that you should be happy helps lead the way for other alts to btc to be successful.

your obsession seems to be more about price (ie in USD) then value.

but Yes, after a year of launching the beta test of Ether, and still go ideas and thoughts that can be screwed and probably what it will be, and what ideas under this theme can be endlessly and that the platform will go on indefinitely, which is probably not far off the seriousness of serious people that the game does not become a deviation or bigotry because the potential is very strong and the need for serious regulation is overdue but to understand the rules of the game, though , and the price is thus increasing, which is a good investment for beginning people and that probably I'll buy more coins, though

Ether is a shitcoin. Most obvious pump and dump scheme I've ever seen. Anyone buying it deserves to get burned.

How gullible can you be? How stupid, actually? Coin triples in value without anyone using it. It's accepted literally nowhere except for some shit exchages. It is barely covered in the news. Dogecoin had more media attention than Ether. Nobody is looking into it. 90% of the volume is on shit exchanges nobody has ever heard of like ''Poloniex''. Reminds me of Polio (disease). Looks like all exchanges with shitty names are going to die sooner rather then later. Just like Craptsy.

Ether --> will be dumped soon.

Litecoin is the only solid and valid alternative cryptocurrency. It has existed for over 4 years and is traded on major exchanges, most importantly in China. Ether will never be traded there.

Dont say: ''bitcoinlitcoinbtcltc, why didn't you warn our sorry faggy asses? *sob sob* :( :('' when it DUMPS HARD and you're left holding bags of worthless Ether coin.

Sure, Litecoin might not be that active either. But it has proven itself as a valuable and useful trading instrument. If you want to invest in crypto besides bitcoin, choose Litecoin. Can't go wrong.

Guy, you might want to do a little more than looking on graphs and also research a little about the technology.

First came BTC.
Then LTC had its time, because it was slightly better technology.
Then for example NXT had it's time, because it was superior technology.

But as you see, there are newer better things coming out. And you can't compare ETH with all those other coins, because it has a completely different base. 99% of the coins use the same technology as Bitcoin and just put additional features on top of it.
But ETH does NOT EVEN NEED those bunch of additional features. It provides the possibility for everyone to write its own features on it ( or better IN it). That does not work with other coins. The features have to be implemented in the protocol itself there.

Noone knows, if LTC will stay on top positions. Maybe it will. But maybe people will simply forget about it. Same with BTC. Just BTC has the real advantage, that it was the very very first and there is already SO much adaption, that its hard for it, to die. It will probably grow, because people don't care about the lack of speed and anything. It will be solved somewhere else. I think that BTCs Blockchain itself will be less used. Instead the BTC will be transfered to something like ETHEREUM (or similar) in the future.

Maybe ETH will be dumped, maybe you will loose a lot short term, if you buy now. But maybe not.
And for a long term, you will see probably a marketcap that passes BTCs, if there is no similar technology coming out soon.
And then you will bite your ass, if you don't have any.

Eth has been receiving a lot of attention in the press recently, most recently here on Forbes  (http://www.forbes.com/sites/laurashin/2016/01/27/blockchain-capital-closes-13m-second-fund-offers-1000-investments-in-syndicate/#4061496e285d)(ADS EVERYWHERE)

But it's all speculation until we see a real product.  Until then, we just ride the wave like every other poopcoin claiming to cure AIDS and solve global warming...
