Quote
An attack vector has been identified in the freshly released implementation of the DAO soft fork. The fork enactment code in geth (and other clients) allows execution of EVM code up to the block gas limit without paying for gas. This can slow down mining and prevent inclusion of legitimate transactions.

Word around the campfire: the next version of Windows will require ETH tokens to run Excel. But you didn't hear that from me.

Recruitment numbers are down all over town this quarter.

Is that topical?

A quim is the sinful part of a lady's toilet area. Luckily I shy away from such things these days. Anyway let's not distract those who wish to gloat over ETH.

People traded coins on Cryptsy that didn't even have a functioning blockchain any more. ETH would probably need to personally come around and punch your grandma in the quim before people walked away now.
QUIM.  What is that exactly?  Never heard that word before.

So ETH is a garbage coin now or what?  After the DAO news it tanked but then rebounded and now is down again.  And the other related coins, waves and lisk, have also been flushed down the toilet.  Not sure if all this is due to bitcoin rocketing to the moon or not.  But I would not touch ETH with a ten foot quim.

ETH is entering a bear market.  I can't see anybody actually trusting it enough to actually use it for a smart contract.  Trading will be the only purpose for a while and it will get shorted into the ground.

Quim punching is something of a family tradition. It's the only way we have of expressing affection even when some of us aren't quim owners.

punch your grandma in the quim

Just quoting because more people need to start using the word "quim". Especially in relation to assaulting family members... As you were. Tongue

This should push Bitcoin up.
However, it may pull it down along with other digital currencies due to potential problems spotted that could be transferred from eth to btc!
People may also have transferred to Eth and then given up on crypto currency altogether due to the problem (though this one should be a minority)!

I'd feel bad for anyone who lost out if ETH really did falter properly but it's a salutary lesson in not running before you can walk.

I know Core types get lots of stick for being conservative among many other things but here's the reason why.

Eth is fucked beyond repair, wait if/until the dao money is returned and a lot of people will take it and run to the nearest exchange to buy btc.....

I didn't notice that the bitcoin price is affected by the movement of the Ethereum price nor with the last hack, i mean eth has lost 30%? meanwhile btc kept its volatility between $620-670

Stop polluting this forum with talk about that shitcoin. Thanks.
This discussion is about BTC, not *#!&coin, both eco-systems co-exist and influence each other.

I'm not a big fan of *#!&coin neither, but if something could affect the price of BTC, I must mention it.

It's completely natural to talk about other currency related to BTC, BTC must be exchanged for something, XAU, USD, EUR, *#!&coin... it can't exist in isolation, then it would not be possible to determine it's value and there would not be a reason for a speculation forum, so please forgive me Cheesy

Sure, ETH will still be around, people will trade it, but at much lower rate. What I assumed is that a lot of people will reach for the safety by exchanging ETH for BTC and that will push BTC price upward.
