I don’t understand when we began to oppress scientists and developers because of their open position and desire to convey scientific knowledge to people? We do not live in the Middle Ages. People in many countries live in terrible economic conditions because of the country's policies and various sanctions, and in order to somehow find a way to save their money, they buy crypto. It’s terrible when you are judged only because of your birthplace. Like people in North Korea or Syria are all bad just because they want to learn blockchain? what shit

Nobody cares about the fate of individuals. That is why cryptocurrencies are such a difficult mission, they should give the opportunity not to set boundaries for financial transactions, maintain confidentiality, but at the same time monitor as efficiently as possible so that the system is not used for illegal actions. This is a difficult task. Therefore, many countries prefer to block cryptocurrencies or arrest activists so that they do not need to think how to solve more complex cases

I agree with Vitaly that we should not be inspired by fears to interfere with normal communication and interaction between people. Fortunately, everyone can study cryptography thanks to such open resources as taklimakan network, where there are educational materials and the ability to communicate with experienced investors. I am sure that blockchain technologies can serve the benefit of all countries, help with security, data optimization, and open up new opportunities for people to receive additional income. I like these ideas here.

Unfortunately, if there is no democracy in the country, then cryptocurrencies will not give anything, except as new ways to hide their financial manipulations. That is why there are offshore companies, precisely because there are sanctions. I think even a rating of potentially dangerous countries has been created, as there is a rating of investment attractiveness. Therefore, they put a limit on any provision of new technologies to such countries with a poor reputation. For Ethereum, this is another dubious enterprise

The entire Ethereum blockchain is in the public domain. Even smart contracts do not need to be written from scratch, you can take ready-made solutions. Therefore, it will be strange to arrest a specific person only because he was on a blockchain forum in North Korea. He did not teach them how to use these technologies. Just like almost all mining equipment, China produces and trades in it and economically banned countries. Blockchain technologies generally try to overcome dependencies on the economy or politics of any country.

I don't see any competitors for ETH as of now. ETH is still the leading platform for other projects and I think it will stay that way for a lot of time. Although it is only second to Bitcoin, the development is still there slowly and steady compared to other projects which is 100% hype. I'd still invest in ETH any time of the day than most altcoins.

Comparing ETH with other pump and dump coin is just a mjob to me, cause I can see ETH with its slow and steady move winning the race compare to those that are just shilling and pumping their coin with a manipulating mind .

I dont see why a founder will want his project go down the rail or may be if you build yrs that is all you will be aiming to do as ETH has always be the best among alts and will always be in smart contract chain, just that first to come will always have some laps which those coming will look in to to beat the older and ETH has been trying it best too to remain the top and am sure its slow and stead will always win.

Well I wouldn't say he is purposely killing the project. But maybe he is making some wrong choices...

The perspective we see these things will definitely suggest vitalik is killing eth blockchain because of its slow pace towards development. But generally, I don't see his opponents or competitors doing much either. From Stellar to icon, eos and neo. As a matter of fact, ethereum remains the most bankable of these lots and I think we should give the project time as they work hard to deliver more blockchain promises

I think that you should not blame Vitalik Buterin for what is happening today in the cryptocurrency market.  The fact is that bad times came not only for ethereum, but also for all cryptocurrencies.  Although if you analyze what is happening on the market since the beginning of 2019 Yes, especially in April and May, the rating of new cryptocurrencies has very well improved their positions.
I agree with you, don't accuse someone of causing ethereum to go down and now it's not just ethereum that goes down, I personally believe that what makes ethereum up and down is the trader so what determines the fate of ethereum is the trader

Vitalik has done a great job being the person behind the project. He is highly respected and trusted in the industry, thus explaining how ETH has managed to maintain the number two position despite its delays with upgrades. It seems people have underestimated the work required for scaling blockchain - and hence all major projects have been subject to unanticipated delays as a result. The delays are not unique to this project.

I will not easily trust an obscure article or news. I thought there was nothing strange at all, and someone who accused Vitalik of being an ethereum killer made no sense. How could that happen and for what? I think in simple ways, and that is not possible. There is no slow growth in Ethereum for now. If we look at the nature of cryptocurrency, of course we will be calm and understand the current conditions. I will still think positively and stay consistent with any conditions. ETH is the best.
I agree with you, we can not know and trust the information at 100%. I think that this is not accurate information and may be due to the manipulation of the course of Ethereum.

Vitalik Buterin can't kill the ether because he's the creator of this whole project and he's the one who brought the ether to such heights, so it's silly to say that Buterin kills the ether

I think I disagree with you, ICO is what drove Ethereum to its current height, and we can see how exchanges are talking advantage of this, I don't have faith in the long term of Ethereum, some people are because it made them huge profit and are blind to the truth, the landscape is change and the move to POS will end the number two spot of Ethereum though time will tell

In my opinion, cryptokittens showed that Ethereum as a network is no good. The load simply does not pull out.

Can you explain more fully why the cryptokittens says that Ethereum is a bad network? because I see generally in crypto the use of the Ethereum platform is very much, so the highest volume in the marketcap is held by Ethereum.

I wonder where the Ethereum team expects about $10,000 of staking funds to come from. .. from clean energy or otherwise? Money does not appear from nowhere. It takes alot of clean/dirty energy to produce $10,000 in real world. This contradicts the lean energy thing  they seek to achieve with PoS.

So with PoS, it is going to cost little energy to generate value or to mine huge amounts of Ethereum in a short time. Doesn't this violate natures law?                  Would they still require miners to lock up their funds. Wouldn't this lead to Ethereum being unprofitable and risky to mine in the long run?

Well I won't blame it on him totally, it is very possible for one to know how to create something but don't know how to manage it which might be the case here, he is a great developer and we all know that, but I don't think he is so good when it comes to making people and projects, so it is telling on everyone who is a fan of ethereum, though if he can just try to speed up things a little bit and then create an hype for the coin once more, I believe people will run back to ethereum blockchain, because a lot of persons have left already.

I do not think ETH is losing its ground, ETH still trading at good price around 3X of its lowest value in this market crash, BTC growth is almost same rather its low than ETH.I do not know what made auther to publish this article about Vitalik, he may have other plans in his mind. I have seen ETH growing from few dollars to $1400 in a short span of time. Ethereum network is still faster then other networks and still most of the new projects are being launched on ETH blockchain. I think ETH will be back to its highest value and will grow much faster.

ethereum died the day they centralized it with their 70 million premine and they put the last nail in its coffin when they killed their blockchain's immutability by rolling back a huge number of transactions. the fact that its price got pumped after all this only proved that dead coins can also be pumped and dumped.
It's interesting to know the dark side past of ethereum, i didn't even know ethereum is premined until i read your post, but regardless of what happen people still support ethereum and will probably continue to support.

I think the article is stupid. He's saying that moving from PoW to PoS is the same as "killing crypto". It's nonsense. PoW isn't sustainable in the long-term, of course it isn't. And it's not like everyone has been thinking that ETH will remain PoW forever - we've all known for years that it would move to PoS. Apart from the author of the article apparently, to whom it has come as a huge and shocking surprise. It's absurd. The article is just ridiculous click-bait.

It is impossible to compare ETH with other large tokens, since a number of projects are being launched on the basis of this token, and about the accusations towards Vitaly Buterin, I think that they are not appropriate because this person did too much to develop this project and raised it to the top cryptocurrency very few in the market. And I think that soon we will see the growth of this token.

I think that Vitalik Buterin had a crisis. No one could offer a good idea for the development of the project. He knew that the market falls and gradually began to move away from their offspring. Now a huge number of projects are leaving the ETH platform. I think that soon Buterin, too, leave team Ethereum so as he lost grip of leader.

I think that Vitalik Buterin has a very wight vision and his views on the development of ETH go very far 5-10 years ahead. that is why he does not think about the price of this coin and does not think about what people will say about him. he just doing his job and he is no hurry

Not at all. Though Vitalik is the founder and guardian of Ethereum, his role for the development of the crypto is not a huge one.
There are many developers and miners working for the so called transition to POS and Vitalik alone doesn't have any power to drive the path of Ethereum.
So, he just not talks about ethereum but thinks for every cryptos.
you are right, the development that is done I think must be done. there is only vitality there but there are many people who participate in the process of the construction carried out. we'll see how the market will progress and respond.

But the fact is ethereum still in the second position at CMC and this coin still hard to beat by the other coins. With the minimum 32 ETH to staking, I am not sure that most people can do that because right now, the price of ethereum itself is more than $260 and it soon will increase higher so only people who have a lot of money which can stake ethereum in their wallet. But that will depend on how you want to stake or not and if you think that staking ethereum will be a good option for you to make another money, then you should prepare from now before it's launch later (or it's already launched?).
with minimum 32 ETH to staking,a very large amount investment not everyone can follow. I assume that the 32 ETH initial investment is too grandiose, without any guarantee that the project will run smoothly, whether the author only enlarges so that Vitalik butering and Ethereum 2.0 become a hype among investors, or indeed this news has a point.

Those big fat whales can stake that amount of ETH and keep accumulating more, as they have a lots of money to invest and keep controlled with
this opportunities, not sure about ordinary investors if they can keep coins inside their wallets when ETH value start to pumped up.

Still has to prove if moving from proof of work to proof of stakes will have disadvantages for the community, but I'm surprised that it is quite a high amount of Eth for anyone to participate in staking, only whales will have big advantages here, the most that I can buy with all my free money and some of the coins that I can trade is 10 Eth.

We have to admit that in the history of business and many organizations, there can be circumstances when the very leader of the pack can become its very enemy. However, I am not yet seeing that with Ethereum and Vitalik Buterin. Remember that we each have our own concept and ideas of leadership and management style. And certainly, a popular figure like Vitalik will always have a share of critics who are not in agreement with the way things are with the network. Let's give this young man the time, space and some consideration while leading the people behind Ethereum. I am sure that soon we can be vindicated with this conviction.

Yes, I know that proof-of-stake can, at least in theory, prevent 51% attacks and that there are other benefits the protocol, but at what cost?

The author himself understands why this happens and still tries to hold on to the old mining technology. Since the mining of coins has lost its meaning, large pools have already influenced the course for a long time. After the fork, everyone can get a coin and possibly contribute to the course correction.

there is nothing unusual about it. that is the natural order that has dominated this market forever.
new coins are created, they get pumped and dumped for a while and then they can no longer be pumped as before because their pumping days always has an expiration date.
on top of that in case of ETH, the only reason why it got pumped was because of ICO scam hype and as that died slowly so did the pumpability of ethereum!

Comparing ETH with other pump and dump coin is just a mjob to me, cause I can see ETH with its slow and steady move winning the race compare to those that are just shilling and pumping their coin with a manipulating mind .

I dont see why a founder will want his project go down the rail or may be if you build yrs that is all you will be aiming to do as ETH has always be the best among alts and will always be in smart contract chain, just that first to come will always have some laps which those coming will look in to to beat the older and ETH has been trying it best too to remain the top and am sure its slow and stead will always win.

Super interesting article from someone accusing Vitalik Buterin of being both father and murderer of Ethereum: https://cryptotradernews.com/insights/how-vitalik-buterin-is-killing-crypto/


I mean, if you think about it, ETH has been on a very UNUSUAL and SLOW pace compared to its competitors... Something is for sure happening.

Thoughts?
