Apologies to anyone who invested in Ethereum, but frankly it's a lost cause.

Yo... I came across this thread when looking for a post I made about "disappeareum", because it was potentially the wrongest I've ever been about anything in crypto.

The truth is Ethereum did take forever to finally launch and I'd say more people than not were convinced it was a vaporware scam for at least a year.

Reading through Vitalik's old articles in BitcoinMagazine, however, it should have been apparent that there was something 'special' about that young man.

Haha, found it.

Does anyone still really care about Ethereum? They've taken too long and have too little to show for all the investment they've had. By the time they get off the ground they will already be completely redundant and other coins will have surpassed what they set out to do. Any coins that opt to support AT will effectively have the same features that Ethereum would have had (assuming they ever finish it). Not only is AT ready and working right now, but it also allows all the coins supporting it to trade directly from one blockchain to another without a third party exchange. Ethereum is basically stillborn.

Nah, it's pretty much a failed project at this point imo. It was way too ambitious, which will translate in development getting stuck constantly. On the other hand, we have Maidsafe, an ambitious project, but in the making before even Bitcoin started, and making good process. Maidsafe is definitely the future of decentralized internet, and Bitcoin will still be the king currency/blockchain usage.

Indeed. I'd say Maidsafe almost certainly has a brighter future than Ethereum. However, I'm still betting on coins supporting AT having the brightest future, as it can be coded into just about any coin that's willing to implement it and then removes the sole reliance on centralised exchanges for trade. The community has been crying out for ages for truly decentralised exchange, and now that it's here and working, hardly anyone seems to have noticed. Once it takes off, it should reduce hacks and thefts because there will be less funds in the hands of third parties, generally making the crypto space more secure and less prone to drama and negative headlines.

Apologies to anyone who invested in Ethereum, but frankly it's a lost cause.

I suspect this "Bob" guy is probably actually (or at least connected to) J. R. "Bob" Dobbs of the Church of the Subgenius (wikipedia).

I'm not sure anyone should doubt Vitalik's crypto abilities.. he's certainly an 'Uber'..

His kung fu is strong.

I read it as "In Theory"-um.

That's what Ethereum has been so far: just a theory.

Just mental ether that only exists as an idea and can't be tied to an actual presence in reality.

Maybe, or he might be referring to the blockchain of DobbsCoin (BOB), which is the official Crypto-Currency of the Church of the SubGenius, an American UFO parody Religion & SEX Cult.

Why so little information on the site? I don't expect to be spoon fed but more information would be welcome. The site speaks of 'join us..' etc.. but very little information is provided. Not sure if that is the aim of the site but if so then why put up a site in the first place if you do not plan on sharing more detailed information.

Also, on the front page it states '75,0043,565 THE' guess it should be 750,043,565....

Looks interesting but need more information.

It's fake site. Fun to read though.

LOL!

Someone actually built a website for that?

Also, if you know the guy, tell them their BTC address is all uppercase.
It should be: bitcoin:16SMM2ZaUvi3egeVSv1E8yegRidvcCPCSN

read the sarcasm of the site.

intheorium= inferior/ untheorised
ultra centralised
based on BOBchain = not blockchain

basically its calling ethereum a non blockchain, crappy centralised msql database ... by using satire
