eh. i think people expected this kind of centralization from eth. there are times it is useful..cancelling or repairing transactions can be useful powers to have. ofc the only problem is people abuse such powers.

its up to (((them))) if they abuse it so strongly people leave eth, or if they manage it somewhat responsibly

>> No.2290801

you are now aware that ethereum is an 85% premined scamcoin with a huge extent of centralization and even a history of hard forking to recover legally obtained coins (see the DAO).

sell now before vitalik and the other ethereum foundation founders gets arrested for selling unlicensed securities.

You got in on a ponzi scheme at the perfect time. Sell now and hold bitcoin for security or gamble on ethereums successor (probably smart contracts that aren't turing complete so they can be mathematically verified)

>> No.2290809

This means nothing, all he's saying is if someone with a huge amount of capital (billionaire?) wanted to ruin ETH they can't just pump 51% in and take full ownership stake and do whatever they want with it.
