Too many forks in his chain have made the people was feeling doubt about the future of eth. just a little gap until the next fork was coming, ETH has broken.
I'm already retiring from there.
Yeah I always trusted Greg Maxwell's take on the cryptos he talked about, it seems he may be right about ETH.. its too ambitious at a core level, it's just too dangerous to make a turing complete coin, because of all the unknowns that it may trigger ending up in a mess.
Bitcoin is way better, it isolates the core as a simpler and therefore more robust software, then build complex stuff around it (sidechains etc)
