Ethereum hard fork to break contracts???

https://decrypt.co/9013/istanbul-hard-fork-may-lead-to-broken-ethereum-contracts

is it finally time to sell link bags?

ETH is a waste
ETH is the weakest token on CMC

Sold mine for MITX. Still think this was a wise choice.

it's not going anything to link.
It's a complicated issue. Gas prices were never supposed to be static, but some developers assumed they are going to.

It's only to set a precedence that massive changes can happen regularly

it's going to be known very soon, it's a simple static analysis. Only those that do a call with static gas that's too small.
I guess it's feasible to make a list of such contracts and give them old gas cost, but tell every future dev that gas cost is not a static number and they should never hardcode the limit, unless they expect the target to be a dumb address.

However given the heat I think the chance is >50% it's going to get scrapped and moved to Istanbul 2 while retaining backwards compatibility.

It sort of sucks ethereum is the only network that has a chance, new eth2 devs appear to be are fine, old eth1 devs are mostly random people that now hold power way above their station.

If ETH gives the devs 140k tokens through EIP-2025 and broken contracts freeze 140k tokens
does ETH have lower inflation than BTC?

We'll know once the testnet is up and then we'll fix it.

yes i suppose if chainlink does break, and chainlink fixes it, it may truly be

that will show that Sergey actually cares about link marines

exactly he won't let us down
those 700k sells are just to allow us to buy more
