General Opinion on Ethereum

[knightkon]

I agree that it is worth watching to see what happens.  I personally do not see any good coming out of it where I would be willing to invest into this myself, whether time or money.  We can only watch and shit it the best.  Good luck.

[aizzaku]

i didnt know about this earlier..
but as i read the concept seems really good... i think this will be worth investing a bit

A Turing-complete, intelli-hashing smart-chain is the next logical step in the Bitcoin --> Monero --> X progression.

It's not an easy thing to accomplish, and I don't know if VB is the right guy for the job.

But I am totally down for the cause.  If we don't get it right the first (or second, or third) time, we'll learn from previous mistakes.

It has to happen, or the statists win and their jackbooted thugs stomp on the face of humanity forever.

2016 will not be 1984.

I think that a lot of people think Ether is something that it is not..

I really can't explain it..

etheoruom = a homeless scam mosquito looking to kill the elephant. people do believed in this, so is tooth fairy and santa clause.

this scam have so much hypes and money changing hands before it was release or even have the blue print
people would expecting more and they can't believed this was it, a vaporware hype with confusing nonsense terms. lol
gas, crash, ass, fuel, agure... soon the world using fusion reactor then they would find more terms   when all they need is honest r&d then build another layer something similar to bithalo or openbazaar

Yep, Ethereum looks like a scam. It always smelled fishy and wasnt a very transparent enterprize to begin with.

[tokeweed]

Yeah..  Whatever that makes the price low and stays low is good. 

[quad588]

Interesting concept.
Worth watching how it develops.

I agree... I've been watching it from the start and I am not surprised how well it is going due to the interesting concept

[tokeweed]

It's interesting indeed.  And some of the projects on Ethereum are interesting as well.  This one caught my eye  http://slock.it

[tokeweed]

And branding Ethereum as an outright scam ala Bobsurplus is taking it overboard.  The world's biggest banks are looking into using its blockchain for fucks sake.

[battbot]

Any project that I am not personally invested in is a scam.  No questions asked.  Case closed.

2000+ plus developers, Microsoft, the worlds largest Banks, bla, bla, bla...

None of this matters. It's all a smoke screen. When benthach (an illiterate tard from Kazakhstan) says something is a scam... it's a scam! He doesn't need proof! His words are enough. He is a champion of righteousness and a friend to all who have incestuous tendencies towards their cousins. Now... case closed.

GO QUARK!

I think the cost of developing the Ethereum infrastructure is too high. But they are cutting the cost now.

ETH is a risky business, there are already some competitors out there with pretty much the same functionality and many more coming. I think at this moment it's overpriced for it's usefulness.

Please elaborate.

After my research and understanding I feel ethereum will certainly grow in adoption as it is building what I see as the next de facto platform for the web. However, Ethereum is not a monetary instrument. It is used as digital "fuel" for the smart contracts. Additionally, ethereum is infinitely inflational. Its not necessarily bad economically, but when approached as a monetary instrument this means ether will only grow in value when the demand for them exceeds the supply. And right now the demand is still far in the future when more platforms like augur, boardroom, and airlock launch and gain adoption, meaning any ether bought now is practically guaranteed to decrease in value simply through inflation.

Ethereum (ETH) is almost 0.004 again. I hope I can be convinced to hold ETH for a long term but many of the altcoins have disappointed me. For now, I will stick with trading altcoins to earn more btc.

That is the right decision. You may get more Ethereum in the process. The Ethereum is developed quite actively. It might become big.

[robelneo]

Ethereum is a big news now a days they are the number 4 on the coinmarketcap and many faucets are created for this coin I am still on a research why this coin has been making a big noise..
I might allocate some funds if this coin will become the silver of crypto currency
