If you think about it, ETH is a ponzi scheme as gives the birth to 'newer' 'better' tokens when in actual fact all its doing is luring more people to buy in thus inflating its price further. It'll fall apart when none of these tokens amount to anything.

Here's the kicker. ETH will suffer the same fate it did at 300usd. Once these ICOs start cashing out it'll cause a catalyst of panic selling.

To people who saying "SEC said this, SEC said that.."

AMERICANS CANT EVEN PARTICIPATE IN ICOs.

So, whatever SEC says it will affect only americans, whose can only buy after market (when ICO is over).

LOL.

Second. SEC said it likes ICOs, it just wants more morals in this game.

Which is again, good.

In the end, SEC FUD is just that, a FUD.

Crypto was not created to allow retarded normies to buy lambos, it exists for people who want to move money quietly and subtley without the Fed or the IRS sapping it dry at every turn.

ETH works on its own, or with other currencies to keep trades effecting, fast, and private.

nobody actually wants to or will though. it will have to happen automatically out of sight for it to get any kind of popularity and with that comes no lock in and competitors that will undoubtedly be cheaper (thanks to no fee overhead) have a significantly better chance of seeing adoption than in a world where tokens must be used and exchanged manually.

>>7266283
it wont just be ethereum though. privacy is a feature not a product. coins like monero thrive only when progress is stalled like it is now, eventually second layers will ensure that private tokens operating on a public blockchain are just as private as ones operating on a public chain.
