If it could happen to ETH it could happen to us.

Sure. Just implement a bitcoin DAO and then fork bitcoin to bailout greedy investors.

So anyone care to explain why this whole BU fork FUD just happens to come up immediately after the ETF disapproval?  Hmmm?

You guys are getting played.  The pumpers ALWAYS come up with a reason to DUMP following an ATH.  If they can't exploit a hole, hack an exchange, or DDoS the shit out of one, they'll find another way.

The new way is pretty simple: social engineering based on emotion.  Make something trivial about Bitcoin into a big deal, create troll/shill accounts to divide the community, push $$$ towards alts and tout them as 'Bitcoin 2.0', and get everyone whipped up in a frenzy.  And short-dump on the way down.

Apparently, 90% of the time it's gonna work every time. Because bitcoiners are a bunch of overgrown whiny babies that can be easily manipulated.

Or this. Idk.

But with enough social engineering we can be forked. They'll never stop trying

Social engineering got Trump elected, and the fact that it might be working on bitcoin is the problem. The risk is not reflected on the price above $1000, and there's nothing at the moment that's gonna push us above the $1300 barrier

It's quite simple: The ETF-decision brought hype. Hype lead to a big mempool. Which lead to rising fees. High fees lead to stronger motivation to run BU.

The runup caused the clogged network and that brought us here.

Same with altcoins. The rising fees (caused through ETF-hype) lead to rising Altcoins cause people speculate on stronger Altcoin adaption.

Just simple logic. No conspiracy-retardness needed.

The fact that a couple a troll traders have already jumped in to dispute me proves I'm right.

No. Being right would prove you're right.

Good luck.

O so much doom.

The real professionals always knew the ETF was never going to happen and they knew perfectly well that they could prey on that once the expectations ran out. Chuck in some forking fun and hey presto thousands of 'traders' will thrust their coins into your hands at an agreeable price.

Me, I'm off to the Isles of Scilly for a few weeks with a tent filled with luxuries to see what the real world is like. You're all invited but bear in mind that I snore like an elephant seal's death rattle.
