Sorry about it, Phil.
Since this is about to be locked, i would post my thoughts here, feel free to delete.

I am in kind of sour mood about recent developments.
As i see it, some bitcoiners got jealous of ethereum, hacked the DAO.
Ethereum foundation released a half-baked hard fork in response, which was supported by large numbers of users anyway.
Some bitcoiners wanted to support eth classic in lieu of such fork, did not let unforked chain die, causing 35% decrease in eth value while propping an alternative chain for, perhaps, the sole reasons of eventually dumping hacked ETC there.
Someone (maybe from ethereum side, just a reasonable guess) hacked bitfinex, causing 18% decrease in btc value, which is LARGER than the total market cap of ethereum.
As i see it, crypto space has become a toxic soup where very intelligent people try to up each other while regular folks suffer as a consequence.

I don't like where this is going.

I'd have to agree... Altough i seldomly post in these threads other than taking an (sometimes educated) guess, i'm still following your threads on an allmost daily basis . I'd still keep guessing once in a while even if there was no price.

I won !!!
