Really, this make no sense to me. I believe the current gas model will continue as it is. Actually the network is moving to different security protocols such as POS , which would be one more use case for eth.
You are completely right. I doesn't make sense what they perpetuate these days. I can't even begin to contemplate this idea about eventually ETH going to zero and the gas being paid in tokens. What that would do to the network is beyond comprehension. In any case, I thought that PoS would have been operational by now. With so many different and often contradictory information coming out in the news, it's hard to make sense. IMO, rather than talking about these issues to the media, Vitalik should step up and make some concrete steps to lead ETH into some direction, whatever that is.
Yes.
There is also one more thing about pos.
Once I heard Andreas Antonopoulos saying that the world might not support 2 proof of work cryptocurrencies, because of energy consumption. And if there's is space for just one, that is bitcoin.
Maybe vitalik agrees with that somehow. Ethereum Casper (pos) will be a solution for that, and to Eth value problem.
But when it's released, it must be 100%
A buggy plataform such as eos is worse than a late one.
