[ANN] [ETM] Ethereus Maximalist - Fair Ethereum fork - A new beginning

Ethereus Maximalist (ticker symbol ETM) will be spawned from the intentions of Ethereum Classic but in a purer fashion.  Unfortunately we cannot go back in time and replay actions so what’s done is done and this will launch as a fork of the current Ethereum network.

Ethereum Classic launched with many issues such as many people not knowing it would gather mining or exchange support.

Holders of Ethereum who had their ETH loaned out on exchanges such as Poloniex and Bitfinex were not eligible to receive ETC.

Many people held DAO tokens prior to the hard fork and were also unable to receive ETC.

Many exchanges such as Yunbi, Coinbase and BTC-E have suffered losses in ETC as they were not prepared for the launch, nor were they anticipating giving existing users ETC.  BTC-E has called Ethereum Classic a scam.

With a proper announcement and time to prepare we can solve this and mitigate any attack vectors.

Ethereus Maximalist will launch as a fork of the Ethereum blockchain at block 2,100,000.  That is the only criteria set forth and we anticipate a community, miner support and a development team to form organically from there.

Ethereus Maximalist will come with the following:

• A fairly planned launch and fork.
• Replay attack protection.
• Sufficient time for a code proposal to come from the community and for a development team to form.
• Less market manipulation through a planned outcome.

DONATIONS

If there are no outside code proposals in 1 week then the poster of this ANN will put the modified Geth client code for Ethereus Maximalist [ETM] on Github.  Donated funds will then go towards a publicity and awareness campaign for the Ethereus Maximalist [ETM] chain.

The best possible outcome is that an outside code proposal will be accepted by the community and will receive a portion of donations.

There will also be donations towards further development, funding basic infrastructure such as a block explorer and web site hosting.

You get an Eth Fork!
And
You get an Eth fork!



EVERYBODY GETS AN ETH FORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRK!

[Mgrover]

new fork, god help us.

[LeChuckDE]

Big nope

[AbsoluteT]

Wow ethereum is dead lol

[ricku]

It could have been more appealing if it is coming from a higher ranked member account but newbie asking for donation is a NO.

[suchmoon]

Oh dear.

So you'll fork the fork to make it more "fair" to someone who missed out on or messed up in the first fork?

I'm sure your brilliant idea will make you rich beyond your wildest dreams.

[BitBanksy]

Another fork to fork the forked coin?!? What the fork are you talking about

[cryptodv]

This can't be. Another fork dude I'm dumping all my Ether and loading up on Steemit.

[ethmaxdev]

Thank you for the Bitcoin donation received. A Twitter and Github account will be created shortly.

We have also received correspondence from an interested party who would like to run an ETM pool.

Livecoin exchange has also experienced a loss in ETC funds. This makes the case for ETM much stronger.

ETHEREUM CLASSIC NEWS
Created 30.07.2016 00:38
Dear clients, when the Ethereum Classic (hereinafter ETC) appeared on the market, we announced that we were going to add it with ETC deposit to our customers’ accounts. But when we started working on integration, we encountered an unpleasant surprise. Because of the ETC architecture particularities and its direct relation with the genuine Ethereum (ETH), the transactions between these two coins are connected in one way or another. This relation is neither expected nor common practice in cryptocurrency.

When we adjusted the ETC in test mode, we found that we had no funds in ETC, since the transactions in ETH and ETC are associated and funds had been withdrawn by our clients in the process of normal deposit-withdrawn of ETH, we assume that it was sent to Poloniex, because at that time, trading on ETC occured only there.

Going forward we examined the situation in detail and came to the conclusion that either the ETC developers or Poloniex had to take over at least a minimum function of notifying all the other exchanges trading ETH to protect their ETC funds from loss. The quantity of such exchanges is not so high, no more than 15. We believe that to send 15 warning letters was quite capable. We have not received any notification concerning protection of funds in the ETC from anyone. We do not believe it is a fair way of doing business from the side of the ETC developers, and from the exchange, which was first to put in the ETC trades.

At the moment we may add trading pairs with ETC, but we do not see any sense in this as all the ETC funds are already withdrawn by our clients who have been aware of this network features. In addition, according to our opinion, due to the relation of blockchains with ETC and ETH there is a risk of fraudulent manipulations, and we are not willing to risk our clients’ accounts.

This can't be serious 

[Perryl]

I'll mine it for a bit when it comes out. Just in case.

But. lol. The comments above say it all.

[Mrpumperitis]

kl, so what ethereum will this fork from? and will i get more free coins?  

i really dont mind this...if btc can have 500+clones,
why shouldnt ETH being a far superior coin it makes sense...even though ETH is still in beta 

[AmoreJaz]

here a fork and there a fork and everyone has a fork fork!
when will someone come up with a knife or a spoon?
i cant even offer my best of wishes for this one
 cuz my god its just awful how people learned a new trick called copy and paste coin

[Mr.Ease]

I like to eat...

It is hard to eat without a FORK 

[AmoreJaz]

please dont feel special as everyone likes to eat!
there is a small difference  between eating for need and eating for pleasure!
and also please remember that over half the entire world do not own forks and eat with many other utensils! so no a fork is not a needed part to eat!
but if your happy eating prechewed food from an unknown mouth then eat to your hearts content!

This can't be serious 

Team members behind ETM will be revealed in 2 weeks.

We are a team of Ethereum developers as well as Bitcoin developers.

This is an opportunity to get involved early.

ok, ill be watching and am slighty intrigued
If you can tweak slighty and offer something a bit different from ETH, ill be very impressed (kinda like what ltc did from btc, almost same but slighty dif and has a transparent dev team)

Ethereus Maximalist will launch as a fork of the Ethereum blockchain at block 2,100,000.

This will be in approximately 21 days.

ETH holders at block 2,100,000 will be eligible to receive ETM. All current Ethereum exchanges will be contacted so that they are ready at block 2,100,000 and can prepare for replay attacks.

lol nice one
id rather back this, an organised launch, letting everyone know...not some shady polo scam working with hackers and a very toxic etc community.
This could lead to an ETH pump first.....free ETM only with ETH...hmmm i like it
