[ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning

[rytyr]

I am not that deep into the whole Ethereum topic yet. I work to get more knowledge about the environment and I plan to buy a bunch of coins. On my research I found an two day old article (1) about J.P. Morgan, Santander and others joining a consortium for Ethereum based developments. The article tells something about private Ethereum chains. As far as I know, those private chains only run on an intern company-wide (or consortium-wide) network. I guess it does only have some interfaces to the mainchain (actual Ethereum blockchain) to write data, right? Nevertheless, most data and transfers are done within the private chain. Do such private chains help Ethereum or are they longterm dangers for the project because the real chain is getting more and more useless?

Moreover, Enterprise Ethereum will build upon the current Ethereum scaling roadmap and maintain compatibility and interoperability with public Ethereum. In fact, we believe Enterprise Ethereum will contribute significantly to the overall development of Ethereum.

What they need is a forkable chain. That is why they will not join bitcoin or classic ethereum. They will join ethereum fork and try to do their business as usual. ETHF already proved they can successfully bail out failed investors. Perfect for actors like J.P. Morgan, Santander etc.

Thank you for your reply

I want to know who can solve this problem and my lost.

And I think that this kind of problem can be occurred on every ETH tokens.

All this fake hype just hurts ethf more

HAHAHA
Are you still here crying?

Havent you hurt ETC enough?
Really?

Imagine how many people who has ignored ETC because of your childish behaviour from the start...

You have probably cost ETC more than anyone else.

Smart contracts explained
https://blockchainhub.net/blog/infographics/smart-contracts-explained/

On blockchains like Ethereum, smart contracts are a pice of code running on top of the blockchain protocols that where the rules of a transaction are embedded into the code, and automatically enforced once all parties to the smart contract meet the pre-defined rules. Smart contracts can radically reduce transaction costs of reaching an agreement, formalisation and enforcement of relationships between people, institutions and the assets they own, by standardising transaction rules. The transaction rulesets (agreement) of the smart contract define the conditions – rights and obligations – to which parties to a smart contract consent. They are often pre-defined, and agreement is reached by simple opt-in actions. They are formalised in digital form, in machine-readable code (formalisation). These rights and obligations established in the smart contract can now be automatically executed by a computer or a network of computers as soon as the parties have come to an agreement and met the conditions of the agreement (enforcement). This auto enforceable code of the blockchain layer, as well as the smart contract layer, radically reduces transaction costs, replacing traditional middle men with machine consensus.

What is the point of a smart contract if the loser can fork the chain?

ZCash on Ethereum: Anonymity With Smart Contracts    
https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/zcash-ethereum-anonymity-smart-contracts/

Imagine, for example, an election or auction conducted on the blockchain via a smart contract, such that the result can be verified by any observer of the blockchain, but the individual votes or bids are not revealed. Another setting is that of selective disclosure; for example, providing users the ability to prove they are in a certain city without disclosing their exact location.


Blockchain Smart Contracts: Law Firms Are Adopting Technology    
https://easterndaily.com/blockchain-smart-contracts-law-firms-adopting/

To many Cryptocurrency users, when the words “Smart Contracts” are mentioned, Ethereum comes to their minds. It’s important to note that, unlike Bitcoin which uses scripted codes to fulfill its transactions, Ethereum uses a more complex language, therefore allowing it to fulfill more tasks besides Cryptocurrency.

I cant really trust in Vitalik again, not after that fork. The original spirit of ETH remains in ETC and the community behind it.

This is too true

you are looser..

miracles happen everyday and any looser can be victorious at the end.

I really like ETH, but after the hard fork the bye bye immutable chain,it's just "SQL"

I really like how it is the default for now

but,I want tezos to eat ETH.. cos they will manage hardfork just fine

Anyone knows a specific date to when the Ethereum PoW phase is going to end? Do you guys think it will have a big influence on the prices?

AFAIK, No Deadline. Butterin has stated it. And I don't think If PoW will have gone because of the Casper PoS. A lot of the miners will stop to mine ethereum if PoW will be gone.

Ethereum and golem had media exposures in the conference, we are happy to hear that. Ethereum price looks better now, it is going up again, may have a higher pump.

ico scams on top of ethf scam are a dime a dozen

Someone's jelly that no real projects are being built on their chain...
