This is only displaying the arrogance building up on the Slock.it team.
I would like to agree with you Joel. Could you elaborate please?
Yeah I agree with the arrogance part. The guy who said that about Lisk either wants to pump his own coin and shoots down all others or is truly afraid of Lisk and scared of competition. He can't talk good about another coin so people won't divert their investments away from the dao. Wow I must've invested in the right coin after all.
SHIT YA. looks like a total con man, but he fits with ETH's "too complicated to realize it's useless and broken till u try to use it" theme perfectly
well that's my thing with ETH. follow all instructions, end up like this guy with zero support from the devs except "yupp, it's definitely broken"
https://forum.daohub.org/t/urgent-buying-dao-using-mist-has-hacked/1742hence why i havent mined ONE eth - even though i have one of the larger gpu farms in the southern hemisphere ...
a huge amount of hype - but no real support to even help with compiling a miner under fedora 23 x64 ...
and dont think i havent tried ... spent in total an entire weekend stuffing around with the compilation of the MINER - and not the useless complexity of the wallet ... and im no newbie to the industry OR IT in general ... quite experienced - and still broken wallet - broken miner - broken support ...
seriously - if lisk has anything to offer at all - it really needs to be SIMPLICITY and functionality - not just bloat and 'o yup - its broken' ...
ive been watching lisk and eth and a lot more ... when thefarm become a monster of a mining system - ill choose the most convenient and simplistic - rather than the bloated and complex ...
and im sure the majority of users out here in cryptoland will be the same ... make it easy for ALL of us - and it will be more than popular ...
ill sit and watch for the time being ...

Thanks for the honest input on this topic. Yeah it seems like Ethereum truly is vaporware at the moment and nothing but hype. If Lisk delivers on its technology then all altcoins will have some serious competition.
apologies for the truly off topic ... BUT ...
i remember when ethereum started ... very very similar to lisk ...
all talk - then more talk - ico - financial backing through the ico / ipo / crapio - some development - more talk - much more rules and regulations on what can and cant be done - a little more dev work - much more marketing and btc generation - make more friends with money - pump pump pump dump - then do all over again ...
i see this happening here also unfortunately - but with a small twist ... there IS actual dev work going on in the backend ...
im neither here nor there with eth or lisk or any other pumped coin for that matter ... i give kudos to those that started this great idea of making themselves a HUGE amount of money by starting a marketing campaign for an idea - then getting btc / fiat to back it ... the owners ( yes - i said OWNERS ) of lisk and eth are doing a great job in making themselves rich ... but the difference is very stark ...
rich is short lived - wealth is not ...
so if a development of a system that EVERYONE can use SIMPLY is devised - then wealth will be the one thing that the project can boast ... anyone can boast about code and apps and pumps and dumps ... not everyone can boast ( let alone prove ) that the wealth thats accrued was from a system that is USABLE by the vast majority of people ( NOT companies - PEOPLE ) in existence today ...
look at microsofts products ... is it the best code on the market? ... NO! ... is it the best operational systems on the market? ... not a chance! ... is it usable by almost everyone that touches it ( no matter how unreliable and unstable ANY of their code is ) ... damned right it is! ... case closed ...
the massive PROMISE is what everyone in the lisk and ethereum camps are counting on - and obviously BETTING on ...
if any of these coins / camps / projects come out with something that is useful and readily available for the masses to run with - then it will be the bluray of todays crypto industry ( as opposed to the 'technically better' but no so marketable due to lack of financial backing HDDVD ) ...
i think ive made my point ... and im tired - so im going on a bit ...
bottom line is - i dont really care that a business makes money ... almost every business does that to one extent or another ... what i care about is a usable product that will make life easier for the everyday person AND is easy to use - that WILL create a wealthy business ... which means its a healthy business ...
in the very short term - we will see ... only a few months from now ... i can see it on the horizon ...
btc anyone? ...
