I couldn't agree more. I'll add, if you are interested in making money there are plenty of coin's, including BCash, to spend your time with. Go for it. But if you are interested in something beyond speculation, it's pretty hard to ignore the shady reputations and ecosystem of many of the most valuable blockchains. Dash written and rewritten to centralize everything to Evan. Ripple is basically the first ICO with all token being issued in the same manner. It's pretty surprising these issues don't matter to anyone. The only outlier really is Etherium. I think there should be both centralized and decentralized systems and Etherium fits the former well and with the least amount of scammyness in it's foundation.

While I'd agree that Ethereum was not created with an intent of scammyness, I wouldn't single it out as an outlier for good behavior. The dream of Ethereum was "code as law," yet key players have demonstrated the ability and willingness to implement hard forks in order to undo unpopular outcomes of valid Solidity code. So while I don't believe Ethereum was created with a scammy intent, I think it is certainly too premature for public release, and attempts to "fix" issues caused by this immaturity has let to some scammy behavior.
