Will Ethereum be surpassed by Ethereum???

Discuss. I think it will be, because reasons.

ETC is gaining ground as people realize it's cheap and 'counterculture' right now. If all the folks that are buying ETC right now had voted, that is they had an opinion, I don't think the hard fork would have happened in the first place. It seems there is a lot of interest in ETC as a 'punishment mechanism' for ETH.

Did you enjoy the lower hashrate on the only significant chain?

Well those days are fading away.

Those amateurs mining a few , pitiful ETC , hilarious!!

I think that the ETC coin scam. Today's announcement exchange BTC-E, to a weighty argument.

Well, if there's a scam, then it is BTC-E that is scamming their cheering customers in the name of fairness :-)

Because, whatever you think of ETC, it is about a 1/8 market share of the former ETH.  It is like company XYZ is now split in company XY (ETH) and in company Z (ETC).  Even if you think that company Z is a total failure, former XYZ shareholders are entitled to their share in Z which has market value.  If a broker was holding your former XYZ shares, and he only gives you XY shares after, then he's putting the Z part in his pocket (whether you think that Z will fail or not, RIGHT NOW it has market value), and he's scamming you as a former XYZ holder.

That's more or less what BTC-E is doing with their customers, in the name of "not scamming them".

Whichever way it goes, it is a mess beyond belief.

Wrong. BTC-e just like the rest of exchanges that are adding ETC, are understanding that there is a real community behind ETC with solid volume, coders and so on, so denying them the freedom of exchanging the token is simply insulting.

There's no such thing as a scam in crypto, only the longest chain. If you don't like it, fork it!

[frobley]

I have a feeling it will too, given time.
I don't think the holders/investors were well informed of the process of hard fork and of the possible consequences.
Likely many understood nothing, nor did they care, just give me moar bitcoin.
All too late now, glad I'm not in those longs.

No, the scam is that they kept their ETH customers' ETC at split time.  Whether they trade it later or not is a business decision.  But keeping their customers' ETC is theft.

It is very very funny to see that all those crying that ETC is a "thief's coin" don't mind people being ripped off 1/8 of their ownership :-)

[maydna]

i do not thinking if they will be scam or not. for me, as long as that coin can give me profit, why not to buy and sell? but personally, i think ETC will be more than ETH, the dev still thinking, which want they will choose to make a good one for future? i am waiting the news from the dev also.

Its posible. HF make a lot of ppl angry as it was made only by vitalik and his frineds to bailout investors in doa (including vitalik's investment).

What do you mean by this? That Vitalik can only be surpassed by Vitalik?

In all seriousness we really do not know what chain will emerge as the longest chain. I foresee that a mining arms race will start now for the battle of the longest chain.

Completely Stupid. Who cares if an exchange doesn't want to support ETC. Just because an exchange doesn't want to trade or be involved with it doesn't mean it is a scam coin. So...? If individuals wish to support ETC, what's the big deal? If people admit they don't agree with the hard fork, who cares? Let people who support ETC support ETC. Competition is always good.
