This would be a big conflict of interest. These guys need to publicly discloses their holdings.

Does anyone know how much the ETH devs have invested in the DAO?

Quote from: Blazed on June 28, 2016, 10:19:13 PM

ETH is a joke. The devs were invested in the poorly coded DAO so they push for a do-over when it fails. They rush a soft fork that turns out to be poorly coded. Now they are going to rush a hard fork and hope the third time is a charm. Amazing they turn ETH into shit over a third party screw up. I am amazed it has not tanked much harder...

It's just conjecture, based on the fact that most of them were curators for theDAO. Something must have motivated many of them to put their rubber stamp of approval on theDAO and help them out. The simplest explanation is that they were financially motivated.

ETH has retraced 50% from its ATH. I would wait till 80% retrace to buy.

I hope you waited.

ETH's been slammed by a Hacking-Distributed analysis of how a DoS attack could derail the soft fork. Needless to say, The DAO tokens were hit worse.

If you go in right now, you're essentially betting on a successful hard fork to put all The DAO trouble behind.

Erm no. Did you even bother to read the article?

Of course I did. It laid out an attack scenario in which the soft-fork validators got their computers tangled up in lengthy-to-process code that's designed to be rejected as invalid because a call to the Dark DAO is included therein. It makes the point that any such malicious contract will not spend any gas because of the way the soft-fork is designed. tl;dr: the anti-span protection that comes from being obliged to spend gas is disabled if a contract includes a call to the Dark DAO in its code.

Did you read it?

I own a little ethereum already but wanted to buy a bit more, however people are saying if dao is refunded with ether it will cause ether price to collapse. is that a distinct possibility, will price collapse because of excess ether or has the priced already factored that in and might not take a further hit.

Your suggestions would be appreciated ?

Erm no. Did you even bother to read the article? The worst case scenario in the eth blockchain processing transactions slower than normal with empty blocks until the code is patched. Definitely a gud time to buy while the price has dropped slightly over the usual scaremongering from the ETH haters.

If the risk is not too high for you and you support Etheruem then why not.

I love NACHOS

Ether seems like a pretty solid investment but so does BTC if all you're interested in doing is buying the coin and holding it

Personally, I buy up gradually Ethereum. It is difficult to predict the future situation, but I hope there will be a collapse.

there is 80 millions ether and there will be way way way way way way more. Now think when will be cheaper now or in 10 years time.

Well if you will need it in few months is wise to buy it now most likely. well i did not checked where price went.
