Topic: Ethereum scammers trying to suppress BTC till they find someone to Dump Eth on - page 2. (Read 9324 times)

o.k.   so now  it appears that you are attempting to conveniently change the facts in such a way in order to accomplish what you want...

The facts are that there is no emergency, and you cannot create an emergency by suggesting out of thin air that there is one.. yeah, there are a lot of whiners that have attempted to be very vocal in suggesting that there is an emergency and engaged in various spam attacks and otherwise in order to fabricate an emergency where none really exists.


The other suggestion that you appear to be attempting to make is that there is some kind of over analysis going on or that there is paralysis caused by over analysis.. which is simply not the case.. You do not achieve an emergency by artificially creating timelines and saying that you want it to be accomplished now...   from my understanding there had been some work on seg wit code prior to December 2015; however, it was not really publicly and openly discussed by various stake holders and powers that be within bitcoin until about December 2015.  Anyhow, there seems to be decent progress and developments around the testing of segwit on an ongoing basis, even though I have no claim to being any kind of technical expert regarding coding and testing etc.. yet I understand that there is a lot of value at stake in the event that matters are released prematurely - so accordingly, I assume that some deference should be given to time elapsing prior to seg wit going live.

So my take on ETH is very plain n simple, whereever there is a demand I will always be there to provide it.

The key take away from regardless of what coin - is to basically earn a profit. Well thats pretty much how I see most things lol.

If it doesnt make money I dont get involved.

But I`m still holding bitcoin lul.

How about backtesting until the end of the world??
Sure that sounds 100% safer LOL

There is timing for every matter.
If you miss the train, it's gone ~

Yes.... Ultimately it is a good thing if seg wit is thoroughly tested before going live.  No matter what there can be problems and unexpected happenings, but when dealing with a network as valuable as bitcoin, it would likely be tragic if there were some significant bug that caused some people to lose money or to become unnecessarily vulnerable to something that could reasonably have been identified prior to release... and, actually, since bitcoin is not currently broken and there is no real emergency (besides a few whiners), it is better to verify on the front end rather than getting caught with your pants down by acting too quickly to rush something that doesn't need to be rushed.

Ya, everything's totally copacetic and A-OK

Noobs like you are not well informed enough. Why dont you google for SegWitt(roadmap)/Lightning/Thunder network?

The miners alrdy said they will support SegWitt and it will be released before the halving.

Nah, doing great in BTC terms. Currently this:

Lovely.  Ethereum is relatively slightly cheaper in btc terms.  Phat green candle incoming on ethereum

Looks like it's over Eth shills!

miners consensus on Segwit will take forever and may not happen. Then, why not wait for 8mb hard forks??
BTC is doomed.

What delay?
There's difference between being code released and being merged!!
If you check the HK agreement it was all about a code release up to april.And that is what happened.Right now it's on Segnet and almost ready to get implemented.It's all about the miners then.

this ethereum story is being dragged on for a long time and every time you think the scam is over and done with they come out with a new shinny thing to attract more money and pump it harder and dump after a while of pumping to get out soon.

Have you read this article ? It's actually pretty bad publicity for the DAO.
A couple quotes :

DAO investors are dumb :

People who will have to make sound investment decisions (usually made by professionals irl) are just normal people with not much spare time or financial wisdom :

Clash with reality :
Pretty much what every sane person is thinking.

Not enough testing :

I mean, there is really nothing positive in that article. You can read "scam" between the lines.

LOL where is Segwit??

keep getting delayed infinitely

It-s like Unicorn~~

Sorry to pop youre reality bubble; ETH and DOA are both smart scams. Btw..never heard of SegWitt? it makes Lightning+Thunder network for real.

One thing to consider is that Ether is not even positioning itself as a currency but as a distributed computing platform. Time will tell.

Thanks guys, I needed some comic relief today. Bookmarking this thread for when I need another laugh.

Actually the eth price is already pumped up, otherwise I can't understand its fast raise few months after being launched. But it is just a matter of time to see it plummeting.

Okay, so eth is good for what? DAO? What a joke.

This shit cracks me up, how someone has the time to shit talk ETH. Watch it go to $60, the DAO just got a put on the frontpage of the New York Times print edition this Sunday. ETH has essentially replaced Bitcoin. Miners already switching, ETH has more nodes, Coinbase adding ETH trading, Gemini already did, Okcoin rumors, i could go on and on. What do we have in Bitcoin? still talking it's problems, blocksize debate, nothing happens, news controlled by Theymos.
