If it's real, the ETH will die.
Can anyone confirm this?

Just wait for the move from PoW to PoS. Miners are heavily incentivized to create another fork around that time that keeps ETH PoW.
This is the popcorn motherload.
Eth is a mess.

can someone please verify this if this is true or not. is there an official statement from a core dev that can confirm this? i just got my dao coins back and now this crap... -_-

someone please confirm. where is the reddit link to this post?

Im also interested to know if this is is for a fact or not. I have heard this in multiple forums and reddits now and im not sure yet, but I think it's actually true and one of the chains has to fork to fix both.

ETC will survive. It's ETH that has to do the fork to fix the replay attack because they are the ones that have started it all.

We have come to learn that users may be at risk from the exhanges Coinbase and GDAX.
This is breaking right now and we have some pending reports of how deep this may actually reach.

In actual fact, GDAX and Coinbase are related. They are owned by the same company.

It has become apparent that GDAX have suffered major replay attacks in the early trading of the new hardfork (ETHF) clone.
They did not properly secure themselves from the attack after advice presented by the Ethereum foundation was taken.

During this period it is unknown what actual amount of ETC was relayed but we have estimated it is much bigger than initially anticipated.
This occurred over a number of days as GDAX where assured by the Ethereum foundation there would be no interest in the original and unbreakable genesis chain.
They where even aware of the attack vector but left it unpatched. It is specualted this may have been an attempt to kill off their competing chain.

Is this true? This comment will need its own thread because this is very serious. Vitalik out of his panic in getting a fix and a solution before the attacker can dump his shares has made an even bigger problem.

Yes, that is why Vitalik asked Ethereum classic to fork to fix this issue but they are refusing. Sloppy indeed as they didnt even account for the possibility of 2 coins surviving.  



Ethereum developers, the foundation and Vitalik are now laughed at in the cryptosphere? What are the old men of crypto thinking now? If Satoshi was here what will he say to this?

Many old cipherpunks thought that this project was naive and doomed from the start. Vitalik is indeed intelligent , but young , inexperienced and unwise. They don't appear to understand that we exist in an adversarial environment 24/7 and one must plan for every possible attack as real money is on the line.

What big company and investors will take this seriously now? Ethereum is now a failure in some of the eyes of these big companies. I heard rumors of R3 banking consortium making tests in Ethereum. What will they say now? They will not touch this with a 100 foot pole because they do not want their reputation to be dragged down with this poorly done platform.

Well since IBM, Microsoft & Big Banks are "using" Ethereum i bet they are pissed off now  Cheesy

Answer = None.

It wouldnt surprise me if this was real and another fork was needed. all the eth fan boys would still back it to the hilt about how amazing it is and how bitcoins days are numbered. Since the hard fork happened my coins i mine seem to be getting sent into a black hole and i canty figure out why so seeing this just reinforces for me that eth is a failure.

so after the fork, someone who had ETH coins prior to the fork will have the same amount on both coins after?

LMAO

it's just a sad joke at this point, put a fork in it (them) already.


haha THAT was one of your best  "quips"  Piston

Eth has always been full of holes, it's the solidarity language in itself. 
more and more are just poking around and realizing "holy crap, i can scam untold amounts here legitimately using this crap"
but i suppose it was kinda the community's fault, ETH has always been overvalued for how young and LONG term it is imo
