This will be interesting to see how it pans out.

If Counterparty really did make Ethereum unnecessary then all those people who donated MILLIONS of dollars to the ETH startup are not going to be too thrilled. I guess it would be the story of any failed "alt coin"

It's a major poor decision on Ethereum to choose to make a new chain ignoring Bitcoin network effect. They already filled their pockets, so it does not matter to them, but investors.

Another failure point is Ethereum is a company, having CCO CEO and those bs, sounding like Ripple which will be obsolete when the 2.0 movement matures.

Reminds me of TCP/IP compared to OSI. TCP/IP had the network effect and while osi is a useful model, we use TCP/IP.
