"A resolution has yet to be found for yesterday's Parity hack which saw up to $150 million frozen across the ethereum platform.
However, speaking to CoinDesk, Martin Holst Swende, head of security for the Ethereum Foundation, confirmed that a hard fork of the ethereum blockchain will be required to free up the funds."

latest news : some moron  just "accidently" burned nearly $300 million worth of Ethereum at Parity!
so ETH price should start to rocket soon! Less float, higher prices!
load up some ETH now!
https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/ywbqmg/parity-multi-signature-wallet-vulnerability-300-million-hard-fork
we should buy  eth as soon as possible.
eth price can be  go to moon anytime ..
Special news is coming.


Sad to hear their loss.

By the way, I never used multisig on ETH. Guess that the wallet should still be safe for non-multisig users.

In spite of this parity locked issue Ethereum is still standing firmly and market didn't show any sign of distrust or change. It was an issue of wallet which should be treated in this regard and has nothing to do with price or future of Ethereum. They need to be more professional in creating these contract those expanding its usage as independent service providers.
I was shocked by the news from a financial news app.
When I checked the ETH price, as you said, it is standing firmly.
So it didn't seem to be a big issue. I am just curious, are these ETH just lost forever?

Ugh
Parity again. Fracking ahole 'coder'. Accident my azz.  He tried to exploit the shitty code and steal coins, after noticing he's get caught with his hands in the cookie jar, he tried to close his backdoor and burned the whole thing.
Really??  Cheesy   btw you are very frustrated about it.
i am not sure about it, you are right .. how could be possible to burned $300 million  .... strange !!

Vitalik Buterin's response to Parity issue

I am deliberately refraining from comment on wallet issues, except to express strong support for those working hard on writing simpler, safer wallet contracts or auditing and formally verifying security of existing ones.

It looks like Ethereal starts from strength to strength, from consortium support to improve transaction processing. I would not be surprised if Ethereum shook Bitcoin in the future.

I don't think there will be a hardfork this time because this bug is not in network code (dao fork had repaired a "division by zero" bug in solidity) now it is a problem with only one client.
Big problem but not global...

What is source of this inside story even nobody revealed this secret what happened actually there. This could be breaking news you should sold this news to top news agency what they did and who failed their plan. Interested to know more in details.

There could be a hard fork to save the coins Huh

It's an option but hard fork is not too easy to do and community don't want to see too many hard forks.

Can't agree with that logic. IMO news like that will not cause an increase in price - especially with a potential hard fork required to fix it.
i just heard about it. well, you know better than me. obviously you are hero member.
did you know how someone can accidently burned $300 million worth of ethereum ..?
any idea?

sooner or later ETH and ETC will introduce the PoS, now is a good opportunity to buy 1000 ETC while it is cheap

The parity f*ckup won't alter Ethereum fundamentals. Might have contributed negatively to ETH price though.
There's actually more and more positives regularly coming for Ethereum (last month's ICOs of Raiden Network and Polkadot for instance, great projects) and now that Bitcoin has almost doubled I expect ETH price to start raising again from the second half of November.

Anyway this thread is an important page of the history of cryptocurrencies.. I was reading the first posts and was impressed to see how much even in 2014 Vitalik already had very clear ideas about the future and a project which shaped the crypto world as we know it today.

Ethereum is rising !!! to the moon
No it's not? It's been declining due to the Parity screw up.

It's declining indeed but I'm not sure it's due to Parity. It looks more like a global movement looking at Coinmarketcap.

Anyway I hope investors and believers out there know the difference between a contract (meaning devs e.g Parity) screwing up and the Ethereum network screwing up (which is not the case here nor it was the case with the DAO back in da days).
I can almost guarantee you blindly that most people don't understand the difference. It would still be a problem if this would result in a fork though. I would lose all trust in Ethereum if it kept forking to save people from their mishaps.

Solidity seems to be too complex if even Gavin Wood can’t get it right.

This is a big f*ckup that will hurt Eth.

Ethereum survived from DAO and ETC, this Parity fuck up mean nothing.
Vitalik will fix things, there's no need to worry about. If price decreases that would be buying opportunity.
