Which ETH? As far as I understand the currency keeps forking and rewinding every now and then because whatever safety features it provides to "smart" contracts are widely insufficient and the resulting buggy mess falls over the moment a sufficiently motivated script kiddy so much as sneezes into its general direction.
- angio 4y agoIt only happened once, so hardly "every now and then".
- gonehome 4y agoProgrammable money is a useful feature and ETH has won that space. It doesn’t mean it’s not high risk or easy. The one hard fork was fine imo - it’s probably good to have an extreme case community fallback when there’s serious abuse. BTC is the counter to that and why I think it’s good as a store of value long term (rather than just holding ETH).
