The demise of Ethereum is underway now:

It seems 20% of the miners in the ethpool.org do not agree with that. They do not think taking 4% etherum out of circulation is a good idea.
http://ethpool.org/stats/votes

The "attacker" is winning. That was much less than 20% when I looked it a few hours ago.

Nobody in the DAO will ever get their tokens back.

Checkmate.

Disagree, The Attacker has already won.  The Eth investor wins if a HF is prevented, because such a scenario would fatally and permanently ruin Ethereum. The only winners of the vote for a HF are DAO token holder who immediately choose to sell their retrieved ETH and get out before Ethereum takes a long and steady decline .

Yes of course, I have also written the "attacker" also wins if Ethereum is able to commit a HF. But I mean I don't even think they will be capable of doing the HF, because the "attacker" controls too much free ETH enabling him to economically influence the hashrate to not accept the HF.

Ethereum is a dead fly on the wall waiting for the final swat.

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

If there is a soft fork, the attaker's Eth is locked, or useless, how can he use the eth to influence the miners?

If there is a soft fork, the attaker's Eth is locked, or useless, how can he use the eth to influence the miners?

The miners he is paying won't be on the soft fork. They will continue mining on original Ethereum because they don't want their free tokens to be stolen from them by the fork. Who ever controls the most hashrate wins (unless the all of the ETH owners decide to only transact on a minority hashrate chain but that has double-spend risks).



Note the reason there might be demand for ETH is many people piling on short. Shorting removes supply from the market.

It doesn't make any sense.  Is it being manipulated by top bagholders who are using their money to keep buying the sell offs to give it the smoke and mirror effect of looking like Eth isn't bleeding out?
Hahaha just defined some people try to buy ETH with implemented for next time ETH will rise up and gain their price before got attacked but it's just an assume for some people. for me,i'm not interested in buying eth for now.Big holder will think again to manipulate ETH market.

There was a panic selloff followed by an over-correction. The next phase will be a slow and painful decline.

~~

This...huge selloff due to hack (likely sold off more than justified). Who knows where its headed next though...

Yeah, there's no accounting for why people buy shitty-ass coins in general.   Is eth supposed to be dead or what?  I don't read crypto news, since I don't understand 99% of it anyway.  I'm sure it's all the bagholders keeping eth afloat.

I think so. But those bagholders have deep pockets. The Bitcoin dropped a lot today, but Ethereum is rising.

So more DAO is disappearing. No one really knows if it's getting forked or how it's getting forked. No one knows when or if it becomes POS. And it's still rising? Looks like this Vitalik guy has built a coin that cannot die. Who the hell wouldn't throw all their money at it?

We are discussing a project that mostly consists of a premined ICO coins where most of the coins are controlled by a very small group of devs and early investors . It is trivial to keep the price up under said circumstances.

What to watch out for is when devs start leaving , that is the sign reflecting a turning point where the premine is not paying the bills anymore.

If you find the right timing, you could make a lot of profit. You might need a smart trading bot to do that.

Lisk has not shown relative strenght yet. This was the reason why I did not consider it as an real alternative to Ethereum. However, the last two days have depicted a different image. If it cross the $.50 mark clearly than I would consider to see it as an alternative for investment to Ethereum.

They should buy Lisk, very cheap right now.

People love to gamble, and ETH is the biggest altcoin right now, which means is a good place to take some risks and try to get advantage of all those price swings and big liquidity. Some people take longs with margin trading and they are risking big amounts like 10 BTC. So if you go from 10 BTC buying at 12 dollars, and then only a 2 dollar increase can give you very good results. This is why there is a lot of action in ETH: speculation, its people trying to get more BTC.

We should stick to bitcoin. It seems to be the only coin anybody can still get into, use and sell. I know a lot of coins can do that now, but bitcoin has stayed true. Made millionaires.

Yeah right its still better to stay in bitcoin because block halving too is nearly done. I can buy ethereum right now because i already lose my ethereum few weeks ago when the price is gradually decreases because of dao..

Solving blocks can't be solved without my rigs.
