Ethereum promised smart contracts but it was basically a scam on Vitalik Buterin's part to weasel other people out of their bitcoins by pre-mining and then holding the first ICO, payable in Bitcoin. Eventually the smart contract function will be added to Bitcoin via sidechains.

Roostock is coming to Bitcoin 4th December  

So with that, what is the point of Ethereum? Especially since BTC has already been adopted in real consumer payment systems for several years.

As you read in the other thread about ETH, there isn't any. The ETH camp are clueless sheeple that just follow it because of Vitalik, and don't really want to sit down and think through ETH's bogus, non-existent business model. When you do, you find that none of it makes any sense, either in the short term or the long term horizon. The hype is not warranted.

The reason for ETH's existence is complete vapor. That's why the name is so apropos.  

If the price holds I owe you a drink. I converted most of my ETH to BTC at lunch time after reading your posts. 
Cheers.

That's the most likely scenario we're heading into. Someone said it best, it's like winning the lottery in slow motion!

Note the years in question. The ones following 2013 were not exactly classics.

Lol, true.

I learned one major thing during that whole '14-'15 bear market. If/when it ever happens again, just hodl and take a long sabbatical if need be. And buy some on the way down. You'll rarely if ever catch the final bottom.

Oh noes, please don't construe what I said as trading advice. I'm merely voicing my own personal opinion on ETH. I'm sure others here may disagree with me.

Although in the past I've challenged many ETH proponents that have wandered into the Bitcoin Spec forum to show/outline me a long term viable business model for ETH that makes any sense whatsoever.... and they all mumble something about "Smart contracts!" and promptly disappear.  

Warren Buffett basically said, "Never invest in something that you don't understand." and the same holds true for the crypto space. You have to do the research and think through the long term prospect. I DO understand Bitcoin. I don't understand Ethereum. They can't just continue to "fake it until you make it" if the business model doesn't make sense and is not there.

Well said Torque.

The only thing i see on ETH are ICO's scams. It's beeing build on bad scripting language as a result that ETH is a minefield. People will lose there money from time to time.

Code is law, unfortunately a lot of people dont care somehow. Of course Vitalik will never say that his creation is a huge pile of shit, he said that he isn't so sure of ETH is going mainstream. 

Remember those ETH shills like 6-12 months ago claiming ETH will take over Bitcoin..where are they now

Rootstock main focus is on real smart-contracts like;

-Micro-lending 
-Distributed voting systems
-Machine to machine payments 
-Decentralized exchanges
-Asset tokenization 
-Supply chain tracking
-Loyalty and rewards 
-Micro-insurance
-Crowdfunding 
-Property registry
-Escrow services 
-Transparent public tenders
-Remittances.

Are there decent exchanges that accept btg deposits ?

[Spaceman_Spiff_Original]

In this moment, I am erect.

I have seen so many comments like this that I have to ask.  Do some people genuinely get an erection from price rallies or is it only a figure of speech ?
