Looks like Ethereum will be hard forked... again.

I don't think that attacks on Ethereum network will stop and that is why it is going to be hard forked for the 2nd time.

[crypto jerk]

The hard fork was rushed due to time constraints and I think the Ether devs did not expect ETC to survive this long. If they did they would have taken more care to sever the chains properly.

ETC will not hard fork, so Ether has to hope that miners on ETC move back to Ether. Right now Ethereum Chain State shows ETC hashing power down to 500 from 600 gH/s yesterday. Give it a few weeks, I think ETC hashrate will either be down to less than 100 gh or up to 1000 gh/s. If that happens Ether may be forced to hard fork again.

flag 1. How much money have they wasted on themselves and marketing before even making a solid project with all the details in place?

flag 2. Golmansachs people were on board

flag 3. Much hyped and poorly written dao contract

flag 4. Obvious manipulation after Dao hack

flag 5. Can't even get the fork right.

Actions speak louder then words. These guys are A-holes

this is what you get when you make a poorly coded altcoin and hype it up. i read somewhere that Ethereum is starting to look like swiss cheese! now i am starting to understand what it really meant!

i wonder what the new old fork is going to be called this time. maybe Ethereum Legacy

[spartak_t]

The EF keep saying that Ethereum is an experimental project, but I think that its market cap is not justified. And they basically went to bed with the banks. That is why I never even considered to buy ETH, no matter if the concept of cryptocurrencies fails in near future.

I will repeat that Buterin and others behind EF has my full respect, but that doesn't mean I should like what they've created.

I think so, I read an article yesterday about them doing Hark fork again whcih I think will dent the image of Ethereum the more, the greediness of their developers has created more problem than anticipated, maybe at the end of the day we will have more than 5 ethereum like platform

This is starting to become a joke, they might get away with it again but anything further then it will really hurt them or maybe not, people seem to be okay with the previous one, myself I am dead against this path it just mocks the whole idea.

Will ETC fork too?

I'd love seeing 4 different Ethereum in Coinmarketcap.

This thread is pure 100% troll shitpost scaremongering. If anything the attack vectors being exploited are simply being highlighted and patched. This in turn makes Ethereum MORE secure and stable.

How many times has Bitcoin been hardforked? I wouldn't worry about it to be honest.

Bitcoin was never hard forked...

Lies. Pure and simple 100% troll shitpost lies. Bitcoin HAS been forked. And you know it. If you don't then you are even more Spoetniktard than your new photo.

Another hard forked? Ethereum had been knocked down to the last hard forked, if this happens again i am sure the user will leave ethereum, how can the developer not fixing their mistakes after the last hard fork,it is such a shame, etehreum is a quite good alt coin to invest, but if they keep getting in trouble, all of the user will leave ethereum and try different alt coin

It's lies. It is not being hardforked. Besides even if it was hard forked it would be to resolve attack vector issues that the unforked chain would still be exposed to. Don't believe the lies this spartak_nt posts.

I expect many more ETH forks..

Fork is used as a buzzword right now, a fork doesn't have to be a bad thing if done correctly.

yeah but with ethereum it is never done correctly.
hard forks in any coding project not only cryptocurrencies are considered bad, and in here it should be studied and worked on for a long time before you go ahead and hard fork the thing.
but ethereum. being centralized, hard forks it like a piece of cake.

Actually i knew it happened.

It was not a big deal though so most people do not know it happened.. understandable.

And am i being insulted by a guy here voted as a dishonest obnoxious Fraud ?
Who Shill's for a scam coin called Ethereum ?
Who calls ETC "The Criminal Coin" and then admits to dumping ETC for profit ?
..then admits to "bag holding" Ethereum (the ICO scam coin) for profits.

I don't see how you have too much wiggle room to rattle your little fraudulent dick holster around here.
You are regarded as a fraudulent clown we all point & laugh at.

And your attempt to attack Spartak over his avatar picture is sleazy / childish.
Like when you attack me 100's of times.. both of us receive this behavior because you are unable to accept criticism of your shitcoin.
In other words .. it's a YOU problem.

The Ethereum Criticism is rightfully allowed, accepted by the community and well-deserved !

Minecache i have commented a bunch of times how you are a hiding decetful Trolling Shill.
Spartak and I have both gone to the trouble to share things about ourselves and be a part of the community.
You on the other hand showed up during the manipulative paid hype / pump spam campaign of Ethereum.
And have gone on to spam this place with countless formulaic ETH advertising topics here.
While shielding us all from the truth of who you are and why you showed up WHEN you did.
I am certain you have gone to great lengths to hide your personal info here for a reason.
#1: when ETH tanks you can wander off and be forgotten.
#2: You don't want us to know WHO you really are.

Anyway..
I do not "respect" Butters and his coin is a fraud.
The signs piled up back in 2014 and later were solidified beyond a doubt.
I don't see any debate about it.

What i do see is long-conners pushing for more cash.. refusing to give up on their ICO "scheme"

ETHEREUM gets caught with hand in cookie jar..
Ethereum then YELLS AND SCREAMS LOUDLY .. NOOOOO YOU STOLE THE COOKIE !!11111

mmmhhhhmmm   I am familiar with dealing with children  

[CoinBreader]

And ETH will forked again, its fine by me! shall we get free ETC ?? please? j/k
Guys i dont get why you freaked out about ETH forks, how many times BTC has been forked ?? thanks!

[Minecache]

OMG all these shitpost theatrics. ETH has always been forked as the devs take the tech to new exciting levels. The next scheduled one is Metropolis I believe so any patching can be done then if needed. MODS please lock down this thread now. It was created simply to troll and has been debunked. Thank you.

[sillug]

Interesting. Question is now if there will be something like Ethereum Pure, also known as Ethereum Classic 2 or not.

[Spoetnik]

Good.. or bad it is interesting news worth talking about.
