Bitcoin is about a year into a scaling debate, without any reasonable solution shipped. Will be a big moment to watch how the two compare.

Big if though....they haven't done it yet. I'd give them an 80% chance of success I think.

If ethereum pulls off this hard fork, very positive signal for them as a team. Shows they can listen to community, execute in time of crisis



This guy is just pretending that everything is fine with the hard fork. How can he be fine with tweaking and tinkering with the transaction history? Is Brian Armstrong a big investor in the DAO?
Sounds like he is very big and very scared investor.

This dude supported BitcoinXT and Bitcoin Classic. Both intended to hard fork Bitcoin for a block size increase and both failed to get a major community support. Those big Chinese miners figured out they will earn more fees on small blocks than on large ones.

Where are you getting 60% from? Most of the miners that bothered voting was for the fork.

https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/4tffta/hard_fork_voting_and_node_adoption_results/

These are some of the latest stats.

So to sum up.


ETHPOOL is the only pool not doing the fork.

dwarfpool   
f2pool
bw   
ethermine   
ethpool   
coinotron   
nanopool   
bitclubpool   
coinmine   
miningpoolhub   
Alpereum  and ethc epool  will fork.

http://ethpool.org/

Ethereum Hardfork Announcement: According to the voting result (65% in favor of not supporting the fork) the pool is supposed not to support the fork. But as all other major pools (e.g. dwarfpool, ethermine, nanopool) are supporting the fork we can and will not jeopardize any mining income of the pool by mining on a chain that has a very high probability to get orphaned. Therefore, according to our voting policy stated in the announcement, we will support the hard fork. More information on the upcoming fork can be found on the Ethereum blog. As a pool miner you do not need to take any action on your side because of the fork.

The majority of miners don't want the HF but they will support the hard-fork, no matter what...

So it looks like the people who invested in the DAO are going to have their ETH back. According to some people around the forum the biggest investors in the DAO are also the people behind Ethereum and their insider friends. So if they recieve their ethers back, what do you speculate will happen? Will they keep holding their ethers knowing that the future of Ethereum might not be good now?

So if they recieve their ethers back, what do you speculate will happen? Will they keep holding their ethers knowing that the future of Ethereum might not be good now?

My guestimate, two scenarios:
1. Once the ether is released to the investors we will see a large dump on the exchanges. Large holders will try to buy back at a lower price to gain more ether.
2. Those who don't sell keep their ether for a longer position and hope for a price appreciation long(er) term.

I see the whole DAOhub fiasco as something they will want to put behind themselves and more forward. It's not so doom and gloom as many would want to believe. In 6 months most will have forgotten about theDAO and will be jumping on the $Next_Big_Thing(tm). Sure, the whales of Ethereum where also invested in theDAO, so they have the incentives to clean up the mess. But if they had chosen not to, the attacker could also cause a problem down the road as Ethereum is moving from PoW to PoS. Also, I think their could be liability concerns for the people behind theDAO if the funds were depleted and the investors lost a lot of money. They would probably start coming after the slock.it folks and ther security teams that checked the code prior to launching the DAOhub ICO.

So, any news about the "fail" hardfork code?
i'm really concerned about it, especially after the brilliant white hat attack.

Attention all miners mining at https://etheres.com

Payments will be disabled at 0700 UTC 07/20/16. Mining will not be effected, and any blocks found will add to your pending balance. Once the hard fork has happened and the majority has spoken on which chain to use we will re-enable payments and any backlog will be paid. We hope that it shouldn't take too long for the larger chain to become evident and no problems arise.
