If the miners decide to reverse this theft then maybe it will demonstrate that in this industry financial theft and fraud can be reversed through consensus.

Maybe there is a silver lining in all of this.

In the centralised system, this has been reversed many many times, the crminal proceeds have been returned to the victim before.
Then that means we've all been living in cloud cuckooland with that term 'decentralized', as crypto miners will always mean that cryptos are centralized through them.

I believe that there are a lot of "ordinary" people from the masses, which bought ETH and DAO at a higher prices. These people deserve our sympathy, because its bad in general to laugh on the other's misfortune....

EDIT: We must first build a better community in order to have a better "crypto-world". So stop with the hate at least in such circumstances...

you can't build a better community with greedy people. e.g. almost everything here (btctalk) is about making profit.

It may sound like advertisement, and here is not the place (thread) to talk about that, but I am part of a team/community with 12 people from 10 different countries. I have them all on Facebook, Telegram and Twitter, and I can vouch for any of them. It took us more than 2 years, but it is possible.

I feel your pain and it's divine  Cool

If my prayers to Satan are answered there will be more loss.
I don't feel sorry for greedy scumbags who ruined crypto to begin with.
All these sleaze balls fucked up our scene by supporting shit for profit.
No i don't feel sorry for them no matter their level of stupidity or greed.
And sorry playing dumb is not going to cut it.

Turning this entire scene into a massive corrupt shitcoins scammy ICO fest
is far worse them a bunch of greedy faggots losing their money.
Fuck 'em !

Drown you little assholes.

I lick your tears and "get off" on your misery  Cool

You fuck up the crypto scene then want me to feel sorry for you when karma bites you in the ass ?

Play dumb more innocent poor little ICO scam investards.

FUD first & ask questions later™

I believe that Ethereum should pay for that mistake, because they gathered hundreds of millions from the masses and now they want people to solve their problem.

Could you describe the mistake you're talking about? What, exactly, did Etherium do wrong? Create a hammer that doesn't prevent you from smashing your thumb?
You might have a case with suck.it (or whatever, the The[lol]DAO creator), but how does Etherium play into this?
BTW, how can you possibly not think this is frikin' hilarious?

I believe that there are a lot of "ordinary" people from the masses, which bought ETH and DAO at a higher prices. These people deserve our sympathy, because its bad in general to laugh on the other's misfortune....
If these "masses" were trying to save kittens and feed stray puppies, you'd have somewhat of a point. In reality, these were ignorant opportunists, blinded by unchecked greed, who, in hopes of making an easy buck, "invested" in shit they didn't understand & got pwnt.
This is *exactly* how the free market works, exactly how the invisible hand punishes stupid people for doing stupid shit.
Stupid actions have bad consequences, that's how stupid people learn to not do stupid shit. Take away the punishment, and you break the feedback loop of aversion formation, Nature's own Pavlovian conditioning.

There's nothing funny about treating the blockchain like a business with centralized investors.

As long as you're aware that you will also share in those losses then it's all good.

Incorrect! Techno-anarchism is all about increasing degrees-of-freedom.

So you promulgate that TBTF lie and manipulation. Do you work for Goldman Sachs?

Crypto won't die you pussy.

It will anneal and get stronger and more decentralized. The centralized clusterfucks will die.

Any way I could get a concise answer, without having to read through all the (possibly recursive) self-quoting?

"Increasing degrees-of-freedom" also tends to increase the possibility of accidentally your life.
OP feels that Etherium allowed too much freedom, by providing a hammer sans thumb guard. And, therefore, should reimburse the "masses" who smashed their thumbs.

"Increasing degrees-of-freedom" sounds all hippy and liberating, until you realize that life is all about *DECREASING* "degrees-of-freedom." The bearings in my car's wheels dogmatically limit the wheel's "degrees-of-freedom," making it rotate in one plane & remain at a specific spot in space rel. the rest of my car.
That's why my car remains useful, and wheels don't roll away, steer me into a tree, or turn into pink aardvarks & start composing Aburdist literature.
