With ViaBTC moving all their hashrate (~12%) to Bitcoin Unlimited... looks like SegWit is going to get blocked and scaling will be at a standstill again. Recent difficulty rise is unsustainable at current bitcoin price. It is high time some major minor goes belly up.

Wow this shitcoin is dying fast
so fast that it still has a marketcap above 1B$. just buzz off already. The only reason ETHF is still so expensive people can't transfer it to the exchanges to sell it. All those "attacks" are deliberately orchestrated by Ethereum central bank (aka Ethereum foundation).

You're the reason I wish I hadn't purchased ETC. Your cheap insults are just making this arena more toxic than it needs to be If you've sold out your ETHF and bought ETHC, you've done the right thing! The ETHFork is going down the drain.

Thanks! I'm not sure I completely trust it though, but it's something! Why don't you just use mybankwallet of your local bank? It is insured by FDIC!

Amazing how much ETH is being attacked right now, and that it didn't happen earlier this year. Lots of issues over the last month, can hardly run the client.
Nobody is attacking ETHF. It is just a buggy altcoin protocol. The more it is patched the more holes are created.

No matter what happens, ETH will dominate thanks to all the attacks because they'll learn how to fix and prevent them all. It'll be the most rock-solid crypto of all time in due course. Sincere, and I mean sincere, thanks to ETC. You are making my day. I do respect you and understand your viewpoint. But still, I mainly thank you from the bottom of my heart for making my day, every day, and keeping the ETH price from skyrocketing. But, it's only a matter of time until it does: Patience, Persistence, Perseverance. Dream on. You don't harm anybody. Just make sure you burn your own money!

Because there's over 15 million potential other coins ready to be sold?
Really? Do you have any idea how many dollars, euros, pounds, yen and potential other fiat is ready to be sold?

All you have to do is look at your nearest bureaux de change to understand that fees are 100% the issue. Nearly all bureauxs de change will advertize zero fees. Even many remittances providers claim zero fees on international transactions. Why? Because the masses are easily fooled. They see zero fees for these services, credit cards, banking, paypal, etc and they assume it's a free lunch. So they fill their boots on these services. Having deployed a currency product aimed at consumers, I can, with 100% certainty, tell you this is the case. General consumers have no clue that all the profit margins are made on the currency conversion; and if they try to check it, the rates are too confusing to work out, so they just look a the big sign that says zero fees and off they go. The average remittance value is $200/month, and its sent by people, on average, with little or no education. Fees are a deal breaker for mass adoption. Which, to stay on topic, is a deal breaker for Bitcoin demand and therefore its price; especially in one of its biggest markets: $600bn/year remittances. You don't have any clue what're you talking about!

I, personally, will not be satisfied with the robustness of the network until it's running smoothly on a global wireless mesh network which is practically impossible to "switch off" or censor.
My thoughts are the same. It must be build to connect mining pools first.

We had a nice surge of search power last (Europe's) night.
Huh? Do you have a power plant working for you? Doesn't the power plant work for everyone? Anyone who uses electricity anyway... Most power plants work for profit and most people pay for the electricity they use. Obviously, some people have access to free (or paid by taxpayers) electricity and can experiment with projects like this one.

... And Ether is now the biggest rival to Bitcoin... Since Bitcoin came into existence I've seen at least a dozen biggest rivals to Bitcoin. All they come and go. Bitcoin stays the indisputable King. What is different this time the hype comes from the banking establishment. Financial oligopoly must be really scared of Bitcoin if they are desperate to give all their support to such a lame duck as ETHF.

Is there a fix for the Ddos attack. Seems to me a to be a real break down in the network if this attack is not handled somehow.
There is no DDOS attack. It is a lie to cover the fact that ETHF is broken.

I am new here. I started becoming extremely interested in Ethereum/ether, wouldn't you know it, the day AFTER the big DAO hard fork. I saw that Coinbase was supporting Ethereum suddenly and that's exactly what piqued my interest. I had no knowledge about the whole DAO-Hard fork brouhaha before hand. I am undeterred, now more than ever. I've always wanted to be into something big just as it explodes. Don't we all? I do believe I have found it. If not, well, what the hell. I shall keep investing until I see that my hopes and strategy are no longer accurate.
Same happened to me. I started becoming extremely interested in Ethereum/ether, wouldn't you know it, the day AFTER the big DAO hard fork. I saw that Poloniex was supporting classic Ethereum suddenly and that's exactly what piqued my interest. I had no knowledge about the whole DAO-Hard fork brouhaha before hand. I am undeterred, now more than ever. I've always wanted to be into something big just as it explodes. Don't we all? I do believe I have found it. If not, well, what the hell. Classic ethereum is x10 cheaper than the fork! I shall keep investing until I see that my hopes and strategy are no longer accurate.

ethereum will go high Yes, ETHC will go high because ETHF will go low.

does anyone know when pow is ended?
This is a wrong question to be asked here. This is ETHF pump thread.

My clock shows 3:15 p.m. - yet I must be dreaming.
It doesn't matter what your clock shows. Looks like you're dreaming 24 hours a day.

Who is going to pay for your 'effort'? Where money will come from?
I have the privilege to make a very rich wife happy. Ok - seriously: Some day I hope to set up a protection racket scheme with this pool, where everyone with significant funds tells me their private key, so I can mask it from the pools search space. Every client then gets a message "this block is protected". Advanced DRM will make sure the client obeys the servers' directive. Right now, the client wouldn't ( -p <from>-<to>), but I will keep the nice gizmo features coming, so everyone will eventually update to a version which will have DRM implemented. ...(here you have time to calibrate your irony detectors)... Your question is valid though. Let's just say I'm well funded already. You can hire me for 0.1BTC/h but that's only the special bitcointalk.org rate for my ngah brethren. Usually its 0.3BTC/h. This allows me to invest my spare time (when no one can afford me, or when I fuck off stupid projects) into things I like. As - at the moment - I cannot do yet another crypto-exchange, I'm doing this. Hope this answers your question - nice quotes around "effort" though. I don't see the answer to my question. Who's gonna pay? How will you generate income to pay back? All I can see is hope that a racket scheme will bring some money in future. But a racket to work you have to punish people that don't comply. Can you show us at least one example of such a punishment?

Investors are different to speculators, they can consider the shape of Ethereum next year!
"Investors are just failed speculators" - George Soros Translated for you... If your short-term speculation goes wrong you become a long-term investor. For instance, like selling ETHC and buying ETHF. That'd be a veeeeeery long term investment, probably for the rest of your life.

I wonder when the markets stop buying the bullshit from the FED and the rate hikes... Use your military and intelligence to spread chaos all over the world and pretend you're the safest harbor. That is the US recipe to attract the wealth of the world. Bad news is that too many powerful countries are plotting red lines against that chaos and will not tolerate it anymore.
