Forbes
Ethereum: Towards A New BitSociety

"Currently, national (and to some extent international) law protects people’s property rights, and ensures that people contribute through taxation to the society in which they choose to live. But Ethereum’s smart contracts create the possibility that these legal systems could be completely bypassed. What would replace them?

Ethereum has the answer. A new, global, virtual legal system.  In fact a new, global, virtual country. Welcome to the Decentralized Voluntary Borderless Nation!"

ETH is ready, are you?

Its amazing how its gone from 400k ethers a day being traded on kraken (euro) to 10k a day 3 weeks later. No one is selling but no one is buying eirther! What is brewing? I atleast thiught there might be some more quantities bought over the last week with the media coverage Ethereum has had. Maybe everyone is just waiting for kraken to approve there money 😜

Interesting how the price held up above $10 https://www.coingecko.com/en/chart/ethereum/usd
Litecoin price jump in the past didnt have this trend, this is unusually good

Where the hell are all the services to cover all that volume? The volume is clearly fake, and the price is inflated.

There is no big news about Etherum in the near future, so people are not buying, so the volume is low.

i actually agree with most of the article. ( which part do you have a problem with..all of it?,lol )
I do hold BTC but as the halving gets nearer, for me the risk in holding BTC is getting higher. I was around at the first halving, i watched the dumps....the pump came around 6months ltr.
So many people ready to dump when BTC hits $1k+, they dream of people buying fractions of BTC sats for hundreds of dollars,lol and miners getting less rewards makes me think we could see a repeat of last time.
Another thing i notice a lot is when i speak to peeps and say , would you buy 0.5btc for $500 or 30eth for same price, they always choose the full coin with new potential.
I also think when ETH switches to pos that could be the time BTC gets its next big pump, the halvining pump imo was priced in for the past 4-5months.

Somebody who neither understands Bitcoin, Bitcoin mining or economics has written an article on said topics. Not only that, while discussing bitcoin mining he's tossed in ASIC but in reference to the Australian Securities and Investment Commission to add to the confusion.

Their section on "Astronomy & Space" is proof positive that the ignorance of the of phys.org and our author go far beyond Bitcoin and economics.
