I feel the same, but unfortunately I think banks and other 'respectable' corporate entities have a phobia of using the bitcoin blockchain. Ethereum has a cleaner reputation for them.
This is a load of bullshit. Everyone knows there is nothing to differentiate gray and black market use cases of Bitcoin vs Ethereum. The only thing banks have a "phobia" of is using a coin they didn't premine the entire supply of themselves because they want to pawn it off on others at a billion percent mark up. All the R3 douchebags bought a bunch of Eth to try and accomplish this, so please, don't strain yourself too hard shilling for Goldman Sachs. Eth distribution is likely a continuation of the existing financial structure except even worse LOL.
You have a good point, Roach. I wonder where are you getting the info about R3 owning loads of ETH. R3 indeed is a Ethereum fork, but they a) forked over a year ago or so, and b) must have used own coin to propagate transactions. I don't have much time to follow R3 progress and I don't care much either, but any good intel would be appreciated.
We stay on the opposite side of Ripple and R3 and they are owned and created by the banks for the only reason to solve banks problems, and not their customers.
