"Who else is doing real-life, production utilization of smart contracts right now? Nobody!  ... Learned some hard lessons ... enormous funding ... will come back ... the experiment is awesome ... I'm looking forward to DAOv2.0"

"What is the difference between a government or bank which decides to override the free market, and a block chain that does the same?"

Attorney Brian Klein: "People will pick block chains so to speak based on do they want whether someone can intercede or do they want it more autonomous. Bitcoin seems to be more hands off right, and if Ethereum gets more hands on, that is going to change the perception of the people who are investing and building it. So I think maybe there will be a third block chain (that sort of a third ledger or whatever you want to call it) that rises because it offers a different variable. People will pick what they want."

Who will produce that block chain that offers what the market wants from smart contracts and DAOs, yet which is hands off and has better safer technology?

(I think I know who will)

Lol! He is one of the small dicked IDIOTS who bought Ethereum, and now he hopes people will buy his CRAP 

ETHEREUM IS FINISHED

There is a huge market of n00bs apparently.

Let's go build something better to show them how it should be done. If we don't have something better to offer for smart contracts, then Vitalik et al will continue to addict more of the youth on mETH.

Competition is good.

While we are at it, let's fix the scaling problem and avoid the clusterfuck Troika of SegWit, Side-chains, and Lightning Networks. There is a better technological solution.

You have ZERO idea what his investment portfolio or purchase history is so quit trying to FUD the facts. AA has more knowledge and intelligence and humility in his left testicle than you have in your whole miserable bitter body. Read and learn from AA. He's genius.

PS Ethereum wasnt hacked you tard.

No he's an idiot and you are too

The crypto-currency ecospace is bifurcating. On one side are the mETH addicts who support forking and moral hazard.

That is good. Now our side needs a smart contract offering to kick Ethereum's delusional butt with.

It is time to show these script kiddies how to do this in a more professional way. Who is with me? You are welcome to wait until code is announced. I wouldn't support vaporware either. It goes against our creed.

Vitalik will not change. He will remain the person is his. Choose him if you like what he has done. Otherwise read this:

I agree with that totally. After fixing that, bitcoin will be much better and more usable and become THE currency.

I can't fix Bitcoin, but I can try to supplement it with another block chain while Bitcoin might remain the reserve currency.

Also I suggest watching this parody video because it hits on all the points about The DAO FAIL:

Thanks - I had fun making it. Ethereum sounds promising but right now The DAO fiasco is a grave example of what happens when half baked code which attracted close to 250 million USD (value at one point) in investments got released without proper testing and/or clear goals. I hope the thieves are punished. Hopefully Ethereum will survive and thrive.

You did a great job of hitting all the correct points in your parody video. Did you research a lot of posts here on BCT to gain that insight?

My perspective is that Vitalik has a certain way of approaching computer science and reliable s/w development which is flawed. I don't expect them to improve. I expect them to go deeper into clusterfucks because one thing I learned in life is that WYSIWYG.

So I have decided to take the bull by the horns.

I am simply drawing attention to the absolute lack of logic and even responsibility. I hope good things come out of it.

You did that very well. I don't want to expect, I want to make sure good comes from it. I know how to code. So I can do something rather than just hope.

As a programmer I could see that The DAO was put together haphazardly expecting to be a quick and dirty funding vehicle for the Slock.it project. The Slock.it team felt that they should gift the DAO smart code to the community for bigger exposure. The project got too big as we all know but sadly it was the Slock.it team that asked to be paid to provide future security for their broken code. Someone somewhere figured out that this thing was full of holes and exploited it. The whole project handling was rather immature and unprofessional and many of us fell for it. I invested 100 ETH myself. The joke is on me too. :-)

There are no safety mechanisms built into the SOLIDARITY. There was no attempt to do this incrementally. They released Turing-complete scripting into the wild knowing full well that it must blow up. Very, very unprofessional.

We can't blame this just on The DAO. The root cause starts with Vitalik and his delusions. Casper was another delusion that we knew would fail. How many months did they waste on that.

There is Counterparty https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/counterparty-brings-ethereum-smart-contracts-to-the-bitcoin-blockchain/. Does anyone thing that Bitcoin will hard fork to accommodate a failed Counterparty Ethereum smart contract? Of course one does not have even have to use Bitcoin as the base chain for Counterparty.

Bitcoin can't validate the Counterparty invariants, thus Counterparty can't have decentralized consensus. Sorry you can't put smart contracts on the Bitcoin block chain. Rootstock is making a side-chain instead.

But the larger issue is scaling. And also of course the fact that Turing-complete scripts can blow up. To solve this, you need me. I've been working on the technological issues for 2 - 3 years.

You can read my discussion with Zimbeck:

And my doubts about the technology:

And where I punted:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1416129.msg14406290#msg14406290

But Bitbay is for selling goods. Not for investing in projects. I was thinking about a competitor to the DAO, because surely they will relaunch that broken game theory DAO concept again.

A side chain is the proper way to do this, and it can be merged mined with the main chain. Scaling as we both know is a very serious issue so one has to start with a base coin that can scale on the main chain properly even before adding smart contracts. Then address the scaling issues of the smart contracts themselves.

What it denotes does matter because you are trying to conflict the argument when it's clear to all that your name references a couple of crypto currency. We can only offer our condolences that you decided on such currencies and name.

Ps. It wasn't only me who thought this, as I wasn't the original person. So get a grip and stand up for your beliefs and currencies. FFS.
