is ethereum trying to centralize decentralized applications by handcuffing them to their blockchain via the gas tax (they call it fuel of course  Grin)?

could you imagine if Bittorrent, Tor, or OpenBazaar had to pay a tax every time there was a download, a page load, or a sale made?

What ethereum is building is impressive in a way on a technical level i suppose, but there are aspects of it that are troubling to me.

Hmm interesting info this is news to me.
And that other guys remarks about the initial distribution sounds about like what i was sayin'
All these idiots remind me of Doge coin defenders (who are long gone now)

Sorry but i am calling it you supporters are dumb and cancerous to crypto supporting ETH.
You shouldn't be supporting because it's #7,000+ IPO / ICO launch with tacky lame gay gimmick.
It's backed by people with no credible history who are for sure responsible for 100's of past failed scam coins.
The launch coins were bought stealth like by a centralized shadowy group.. in giant blocks ASAP !
The fact i have to say that one last point alone is a massive red flag and super high risk is unreal.
Sorry but i think your all being super stupid and unnecessarily overly risky with your money.
Whats new though ?
Mass "greed" hysteria is par for the course around here.
All of you here know damn well if it was any other coin.. you would be saying the same thing about that one.
Just a bunch of lemmings who hop on some trend ..to profit.
And the more you keep doing that the more the other 7 billion people on earth will see it.
AND AVOID CRYPTO

You all fail to see your shooting yourselves in the foot our of sheer greed & impatience.
You want profit and you HAVE to invest in something NOW dammit !
What is the result ?
Possibly a *small* profit..
In comparison to supporting something legit such as Bitcoin itself maybe.. or maybe LTC or Prime Coin etc.
Nope.. instead what you all do is dive on ANYTHING that is popular so you can make peanuts / chump change.
What this does is destroy the possibility of actually making a HUGE amount of money down the road.
You are all shooting yourselves in the foot and i have to laugh and almost cry because your all THAT stupid.
It's pitiful.. stupid inept greedy shallow twats like a snake eating it's own tail.

Hey good luck with that.. lemme know how it works out for ya.
Or don't..
In other words do a hide in the dog house move like Doge loser douche bags did.
We forget the past huh ?
Did ya all forget Doge was no. 2 ?
Did you all forget how i predicted your community would dissolve because it was not real ?
As i said.. it would tank and people would dump and it would drift off into obscurity..
Then it did ..i even called it on the exact day posted a chart and said this is people
and i was right and once AGAIN i get to say i told ya so.
See what i am driving at ? NO ?
Oh well ..who cares - It's your loss not mine  Cool

There is continuous development of Ethereum. It is for the long term. So I think it is not a scam.

Look:
ETH or any other Big Crypto Altcoin is just a poppet to Launder the money they  have and when they're done with it, that's it, a big Sell Off
some profit from it and some just become a poppet themselves and leave with they're Used ETH in Cold Wallet just like a "Used Condom"
They're Using Dow's Theory to scam the shit out of you.
Dow focused his attention on primary or major trends, which he felt usually take place in three distinct phases:

accumulation phase,
a public participation phase,
distribution phase

So:
my advise to u is :
1- BUY at a Decent price (Everyone is Participating)
2 - Hold For a confirmation for afew week
3 0 SELL OFF During Overbought time

and That's it, Profit in ur hands go be with ur own Bitcoin and Kiss em during bedtime n sleep.

I hope i helped the no Brainies either.

This is how it should have been done right from beginning :
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=563925.msg7991275#msg7991275

I feel sorry for whoever falls for this scam.


Who exactly do you feel sorry for after all?

Ethereum is posted i see today as the big new story at Coindesk !
and i made a comment on it but it's of course awaiting moderation so i bet they will delete it.

Bottom line it's a dumb idea and it's an IPO and IPO's in crypto are ALL scams.
My advice to people is to avoid shit like this and notice who is jamming it down your throat too !
i came here today and out of nowhere page one is bloated with Ethereum topics.

i am going to copy what i posted at Coindesk to explain the reasoning behind why i think IPO's are scammy.

Note:
I just checked and Coindesk let me post my comment and replied "LOL"
i LOL'd too hhaha

ok so with out further ado, here is your new opinion everyone (the correct one) ..your welcome Wink

reference = http://www.coindesk.com/ethereum-launches-ether-coin-millions-already-sold/

Quote


Belief in it doesn't matter, you arguing with a bag holder.
So XYZ scam is great.. no what (to them)

It could be Kick-A-Puppy Coin and these same guys will come here and babble on their usual dumb bs..

They have to..
Or else their IPO scam is going to make them broke.
Further more it's clear staff here pushed this through because their bag holders too.. guaranteed.
It's all rather transparent and obvious to people with a brain hat is going on and there is need to give my interpretation of it etc.

I doubt even 1% of the people coming here need to be convinced for or against this crap..

What we do in fact having going on in a tug of war for media perception as to whether this scheme (or others) is convincing enough to lure in enough of the usual guys.

Because nobody !
and i mean NOOOOOBOOOOOOODY
cares about chow scammy or stupid some stunt scheme is.
ALL they care about is can they get in on it and make some money on it before it crash into the dirt.
I am not the only one who sees a red flag with anything that has an IPO or "Angel Investing" or "Crowd Funding" etc
They are ALL scammy pyramid schemes.. designed for no other purpose than to get Bitcoin to cash out to fiat.

AND..

Even if a few of these IPO scams are honest and legit it still does not change the important point that IPO's and similar were before and still are just a porting of a concept from a REGULATED market to a FREE market.

You see an IPO in the NYSE is regulated and protects all parties involved with massive amounts of rules and oversight.
In our Crypto scene it's a gimmick and a tool to part you with your Bitcoin.. legally !

No one in crypto shoudl get involved in crap like this until we have our own Crypto-version of Berni Madoff serving time for a ponzi scheme or we have our own version of Martha Stewart serving time for Insider trading until then..

It simply is NOT fair and safe or possibly even legal what these guys are doing and if regulation is looming and imposed with out warning you people out there supporting crap like this could wound up waking up tomorrow with charges laid against you.

Be careful investing in crap copied from a REGULATED market with laws.. we are in a free market where Ponzi schemes, Insider Trading and outright fraud etc.. is legal.

Use your brains and keep the greed in check guys lol

Or don't and suffer the consequences and roll out the cliche's Crypto-Excuses™ i hear ever day lol

and.. and..
This comment is (of course) awaiting moderation LOL

I think that's great nonsense ... I think ethereum becomes very big in the future ...

Name 3 coins that were a scam.

And it's odd how you and the guy commenting before you BOTH
talk using the exact same weird broken English AND
you both happen to support the same 3 or 4 coins.. talk about a weird coincidence huh ?

Further more there has been technical reasons presented here as to WHY ethereum is a scam.
but you chose to act like a child and Chant "NO".
If you disagree you are free to say WHY with human readable words.

None of you ever do though.. All we ever get here is a dumb noob shitcoin shill retort one-liner.

"This is the way the altcoins market work"
Are you high or what ?

I will wait for your 3 examples.. in the meantime look at the animated.gif + msg i posted earlier Wink

Did you mine or did you invest or buy and sell?

For me, I just mine and sell. But the difficulty is rising too fast.
