No indication? Lol, they act like it's OK to alter the blockchain whenever they stand to lose. Regulation of eth is exactly what they are doing, and what they said they wouldn't during the premine sale. Oh then they tried to steal the coins and sell them but got caught lol! Nobody in their right mind will trust eth again, especially with the actions of the people behind it. Oh and here's some cause and effect for you, don't take my word for it, this is the internet..http://cointimes.tech/2016/08/13/ethereum-reputation-has-been-damaged-with-the-finance-and-banking-community/ http://cointimes.tech/2016/08/13/ethereum-reputation-has-bee...

What I mean is that there's no indication of a willingness to seriously regulate the platform as in setting up some kind of court and doing routine interventions. Which makes it seem a bit disingenuous to claim that Ethereum contracts are now "just like" ordinary contracts, or that Ethereum is a "regulated platform." The hard fork looks like a slightly panicked reaction to a rather extreme situation that threatened to undermine the platform in its very early days. I don't agree that "nobody in their right mind" would trust Ethereum now and we'll see how that plays out.
