CEO

letoasted

As someone above noted, he's no longer CEO but is chairman and still benefits and makes decisions affecting the company from the top.

CONSOLE_LOAD_LETTER

He stepped down as CEO but assumed the role of chairman, so he still benefits and makes decisions affecting the company from the top.

Musk is the CEO (unlike Jesse Powell) and TESLA cars have many objectively identifiable issues other than the fact who is the CEO. I know I would not buy one because of QC issues or the fact there is no dashboard behind the steering wheel. Musk being a weirdo would be a secondary decision making factor. Not to omit the fact that EVs are still expensive relative to ICE cars and a large portion of the population cannot afford them. The early adopters have already bought and the total addressable market seems to be getting saturated for the time being.

thenamelessone7

Well, he is not the Kraken CEO anymore and he is a private citizen. I will not stop using an exchange just because I do not agree with political opinions of its founder. In similar vein all dems should stop buying Tesla cars because of Trump. Not really happening, is it?

I think most people can be kind of shitty sometimes but are mostly okay. I think the reason so many horrible people are so successful is because whatever it is that makes them horrible people also tends to give them the qualities that make one successful as well. Being a celebrity or a CEO or an elected official hardly ever happens on accident.

I wouldn't hold my breath. The new CEO went on record saying he has no intention of launching a crypto ETF. Seems like he's backing the Bogle philosophy of the place.

I want to speak to the CEO of Bitcoin, gonna ask him if he can make the price go up a little more

slurpeedrunkard

I don't like Kraken as a company - they treat people like crap and their former CEO was a complete jackass. They obsess over their public reputation, threatening the media and their staff, litigating and silencing critics. However you can't argue with their record on security. This shows how ruthless they are when it comes to security. I use their platform and I trust them to safeguard my assets.

The announcement led to a positive reaction in the crypto market, with SOL's price increasing by 6% from $139 to $148. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse had predicted the approval of altcoin ETFs, including Solana. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Ripple Labs CEO will cause XRP holders to lose their money.

I don't think Ripple CEO has any idea how few people care about crypto.

1. XRP is basically dog water at this point, so I don't really care what the Ripple CEO thinks about much. 2. The approval of the Bitcoin and Ether ETFs are the biggest positive government policy to hit crypto in a decade and they didn't happen under the other guy.

kirtash93

I think Ripple Labs CEO hasn't seen Biden lately... Biden itself will lose the election. I am curious to see the Trump vs Biden stuff. I imagine he will take a nap and some special pills to stay awake. He is too old... He should just retire and enjoy the rest of his life instead of working.

tldr; Brad Garlinghouse, CEO of Ripple Labs, criticized SEC Chairman Gary Gensler's stance on cryptocurrency, suggesting it could negatively impact President Biden's re-election chances. Garlinghouse's comments echo those of Mark Cuban and respond to Gensler's remarks about the legal troubles of crypto executives. Garlinghouse accused Gensler of missing significant issues in the crypto space, such as the FTX collapse, and questioned his effectiveness in his role.

> If the SEC is suing Ethereum, they’re also suing Vitalik Buterin, and he would be under investigation… So he is in fact operating in the capacity of a CEO. What...? You can very easily find out who the SEC are suing... no one related to Ethereum. They were investigating Consensus in relation to ETH 2.0 but have now closed that case. https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2024/06/19/sec-ends-probe-into-consensus-wont-sue-over-ethereum/ I guess that some laser-eyed influencers have made you believe all this nonsense but it would have taken you 30 seconds to check something like whether Vitalik is being sued, or if he is or is acting as 'CEO' of Ethereum... > it’s 70% OFAC controlled Again, this is just not true. Go look it up. Why wouldn't you check if claims are true before posting them? Either you are trying to lie and hope that no one will check, or you have been lied to and are just happy to believe whatever fits your narrative? https://censorship.pics/ > which means ETH can be shut down with a snap of the fingers. Even if 99% of validators were OFAC compliant it wouldn't give anyone power to shut down Ethereum. I can't even imagine how you think it works. > I just really don’t understand why you guys like Ethereum, there’s no point for it when Bitcoin exists. You can't do anything on Bitcoin. Ethereum is becoming the settlement for tokenization of the financial world. Bitcoiners got excited about a spot ETF for BTC, whereas we're looking forward to ETFs being built on Ethereum: https://99bitcoins.com/wall-street-choosing-ethereum-for-tokenization-says-blackrocks-executive/ That's on top of all the DeFi applications, things like lending and borrowing, options, perpetuals, prediction markets etc... about twice as much of which runs on Ethereum as on the entire rest of the crypto ecosystem: https://defillama.com/chains The only thing Bitcoin is used for is sending value between addresses, and even there, in the one category that it can compete in it moves only about 1/4 as much in simple transfers as Ethereum: https://money-movers.info/ The only thing Bitcoin has going for it at this point is a loud bunch of influencers who are very good at convincing people like you to believe nonsense (see your claims above).

If the SEC is suing Ethereum, they’re also suing Vitalic Buterin, and he would be under investigation… So he is in fact operating in the capacity of a CEO. All of this is irrelevant, though: ETH *is* a security and it’s 70% OFAC controlled… you can be shut down like a snap of the fingers.

Not sure if anyone would be interested but a mate of is creating a new crypto start-up called Safeforge. We’re looking for people who are interested in blockchain and who would want to help us build a community. Safeforge’s aim is building the ultimate passive investment vehicle, bringing crypto-like returns with while minimising risk to initial capital. We do this by investing the proceeds from funding rate arbitrage into a decentralised, zero-knowledge, reputation driven strategy token. Our strategy token then takes the best community-submitted trading strategies and wraps them into a single token. In other words, we’re trying to decentralise the investment space and make it community-driven, not just for corporates or wealthy whales. Our expected returns range from 100%-150%, and as initial capital is only used for arbitrage, initial capital is exposed to zero market risk. Currently, the team brings together knowledge from Academia, Trad-fi (Ex-Blackrock Global product manager), and Crypto (Ex-regional CEO of Huobi). We’re launching our token with the Boost Social launchpad, launch date TBA in July/Aug.

Yes. Did you originally believe that Santa Clause was real? Are you no longer "authentic" because your view changed? Trump said a grand total of maybe 3 negative things about bitcoin during his first term. That's it. No executive orders hindering US buyers/sellers/miners, no bolstering of the SEC to attack crypto nothing. Just a few blustering sentences amid a mountain of blustering statements. And now, in 2024? He accepts 9 cryptos on his official website. He has his own NFT program. He holds meetings with the CEO's of the two biggest btc mining companies in the USA. And he's made far, far more than 2 or 3 unprompted comments. In fact he's delivered addresses at both a bitcoin convention and the libertarian national convention. Is Trump the one person on earth you hold to a different standard, or do you condemn yourself for changing your opinion on Santa?

Hi ugohdit, Thanks a lot for your message! I understand now what you mean and I will do that as you said. To Lykke in Switzerland and to Lykke in UK. Address of the CEO is not known to me. I just made an insurance for legal stuff but I guess they won't accept this case since its clear for them, that I made the insurance because of this case. So i will have to get an expensive lawyer at least for the starting. Maybe can later switch to the guys from the "insurance". Do I have to keep copies of the letters for the court? Or how is this working? What If they say there was no such thing? Or is it enaugh that there was a "Einschreiben" letter and they believe me what was inside if I tell the guys from the court? Thanks a lot! You are helping me a lot! Have a good night :)

Your concentration thery is wrong and here is why. If there is money to be made you can bet your ass that people are going to jump in. They will buy that liqidated equipment or buy new and start else where. Also power is decentralized (sort of anyway) so we are not going to end up with some mega worldwide hub. The cheapest power is excess from the grid that is not used during low power use periods. You cannot centralise this as it is everywhere. Getting/creating cheap power is the most important aspect of profitable mining and if you use to much power from one area in the grid the price will skyrocket. Solar is also becoming very cheap so you may see tons of little operations pop up in sunnier areas around the globe. You want to talk about scale here it is. It's not like it used to be where you had to setup a coal or nuclear power plant to get power. Per kwh it will cost Bob a very similar cost do diy a 20kw as it will for mega Corp to setup and maintain a megawatt farm. A 1 megawatt farm currently costs about 1 million I can get 50 400 watt panels with Inverters from renvue for like 11-12k. Just need some cabling, shutoff boxes, and mounting. After that Mega Corp will have to pay 100k per year for each solar engineer with benifits + ridiculous CEO pay while I just do maintenence here and there. Not having an electricity bill and free heat for your home and pool would be nice feature also.

"Interesting perspective from the Dell CEO! The Cookie Monster meme is a fun way to highlight the concept of scarcity and its role in creating value. It's fascinating to see how even in the world of tech and finance, relatable analogies can help explain complex ideas.

flightless_mouse

>why is ripple always the target haha Because Ripple really tried to go mainstream in a big way and bridge the gap between crypto and traditional finance. Truly decentralized crypto like Bitcoin can’t be a cancer on tradfi or introduce risks to tradfi because they are quarantined in their own networks or controlled in ETFs. Ripple wanted to mess with the crypto/banking dichotomy, you could say, but they also wanted to mint digital currencies while operating like a corporation, complete with a CEO, etc. They wanted the clout and protections afforded to corporate America but none of the legal obligations. It feels very immature, in retrospect. These factors introduced technical and legal risks to Ripple—because they had a foot in the traditional banking system (if only a foot).

This month I’ve seen some sales reps in tech with BTC excel spreadsheets on their Home Screen while they were presenting, Dell CEO retweets Saylor, Government contractors talking about the state of the US dollar and the fact that it might be headed for a huge downturn in the next few years, El Salvador being talked about as the new hub for investment opportunities in the West and they already adopted BTC. I said ok life that’s too many signs in a short period of time to ignore and decided to buy a decent sum this month.

He further intrigued followers by sharing a meme of the Cookie Monster eating Bitcoin, leading to speculation about his interest in cryptocurrency. While this interaction suggests a playful interest in Bitcoin, there's no indication that Dell Technologies is making a move towards cryptocurrency investment.

California District Court Judge Phyllis Hamilton denied Ripple’s bid for summary judgment, setting the stage for a jury trial. The lawsuit centers on Garlinghouse's claim of being "very, very long" on XRP, despite selling millions of XRP that year. This ruling challenges the belief that a previous favorable decision for Ripple would set a precedent for the crypto industry. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Hi ugohdit, I already informed FINMA but since Lykke is not regulated, they can only observe. Also, the exchange is located in UK and I also informed authorities there. Same answer there. What do you mean by letter? You mean like "give me my money back, thats the deadline before i go to the lawyer"? Point is, I would have to do that to Lykke Corp UK. But Owner of Lykke Corp UK is the Lykke AG in Switzerland. A bit confusing where to go now. Only point that is same everywhere: Owner is Richard Olsen. Maybe he can be held responsible. but what is the first step? go against lykke uk? Or Lykke Switzerland? Or directly against the CEO? I really dont have any idea so far

The bitcoin CEO does that sometimes to wash out paper hands like yourself.

TheReveling

Bitcoin is the first. Bitcoin was created altruistically. There is no pre-mine, there is no leader, there is no CEO. Proof of work imbues value because energy is input into the system and block validation is the output. Proof of stake does not. Bitcoin is a protocol like TCP/IP. Bitcoin is math. Bitcoin is not monkey pictures. When Bitcoin began to trade in terms of dollar value, many many people saw the opportunity to copy it and make money disregarding the reasons Satoshi laid out on the forums and through the genesis block: The Bitcoin genesis block, also known as Block 0, contains a specific reference to a headline from the UK newspaper “The Times.” Embedded in the coinbase parameter of this block is the following text: “The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks.” Bitcoin wasn’t created to enrich its founder, it was a gift to the world. The subsequent hard forks have all failed. I could go on and on, but when people talk about “crypto” they are talking about every money grubbing scammer that has followed in its wake. There is, and will only ever be one.

Honestly, bringing ether into the traditional financial world with the spot ETFs is just an appetizer. The real game is the tokenization of the legacy financial system onto Ethereum.

tldr; Solana (SOL) has hit a 45-day low amidst a broader market downturn, underperforming compared to other major cryptocurrencies with a 24% decline since June 7. The drop is attributed to reduced on-chain activity, lack of demand for leveraged positions, and competition from other smart contract-focused blockchains. Despite the downturn, Raoul Pal, CEO of Real Vision, remains optimistic about SOL's potential for a rally in the short term, suggesting the current price as a good entry point for investors. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

The Bitcoin CEO is looking into it.

>Is that before he paid his back taxes or after? No clue; I don't follow him that closely, and I'm not sure how his taxes play a role in his bitcoin hodling? >He also said he bought more with the pump and dump of MSTR stock sales. Yeah, he (well, the 6 board members, CEO, CFO, and Legal Team presumably) sure did. It's a smart move. "If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you." And Dump? MSTR is up over 900% in the past 5yrs and most/all of that is probably caused by hodling btc. What dump are you speaking of? You must be a shitcoiner if these are the thoughts you have.

Hi, thanks for the comment. I don't but now I'm asking their banking regulator, the office of the comptroller of the currency, to step up and take action to hold them accountable for their misconduct and demand they reimburse me. I never thought this kind of thing could happen in the US banking system where a customer could have their money stolen...by the bank president and CEO no less and not be given it back.

Hang in there, the Bitcoin CEO will be in touch.

Okay, fair enough, that was an unlucky point to buy, still, it isn't going to matter in the long term. The daily ups and downs are irrelevant compared to what is coming. People wondering why the spot ETF approval didn't pump the price a huge amount, but the truth is it just isn't a big deal. Who cares about bringing ether into the traditional markets with an ETF when then real game is the tokenization of the legacy financial system onto Ethereum. Go read this tweet by Van Eck (an investment company with about $100 billion of assets) about a talk by Blackrock (the biggest asset management company in the world): > Blackrock CIO of ETF & Index Investments @Samaraepcohen said today at the Coinbase event that permissioned blockchains have lost, & that **traditional market participants are coalescing around open-source Ethereum for tokenization,** so as not to fragment liquidity https://x.com/matthew_sigel/status/1801342560977190937 ------ Larry Fink (the Blackrock CEO) has said that this is only the beginning: > "We believe the next step going forward will be the tokenization of financial assets, and that means **every stock, every bond will have its own QIP (qualified institutional placement); it’ll be on one general ledger** ... but the most important thing is we could customize strategies through tokenization that fit every individual.

Those all are/had physical, tangible products, locations, services, etc., with a CEO and board of directors behind them - as do stocks. Crypto (and BTC especially) does not really have that and rely solely on people deciding that it is worth something. If people decide that the utility is novel - or more novel than it is now- then that's a wrap for BTC as it cannot be anything else than what it is.

""Sure, but ISP's don't control the internet outside of their jurisdiction"" Are you under the impression that I was suggesting there could be a conspiracy of ISP CEO's to shut down bitcoin in each of their personal jurisdictions? I never said that. ""But all they're doing is banning themselves from the protocol, not harming the protocol itself."" Are you under the impression that I said they would try to 'harm' the protocol? I never said that. Is there any chance of your actually answering the point I was making, instead of making up strawmen to attack?-

Tokenization is definitely looking like the way mainstream adoption comes on-chain.

#Dogecoin Con-Arguments Below is a Dogecoin con-argument written by CreepToeCurrentSea. > Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency that was created by IBM engineers as a joke aimed at cryptocurrency investors on December 6, 2013. It was regarded as the first meme coin, featuring the well-known meme dog "Doge." It has had its fair share of criticisms and triumphs, as well as media problems, particularly with regard to Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, who also considers himself the "Dogefather." Dogecoin is now in the top ten in terms of cryptocurrency market capitalization, with a trading volume of around $233,000,000, and is down 90% from its all-time high. > > # CON's > > **Memecoin Limitations** > > * Even though it has progressed from being created as a joke to a now well-known coin in the top 10, Dogecoin is still limited to being considered a "memecoin." Even recent articles from news and social media outlets see Dogecoin as nothing more than a memecoin with a historical advantage over other memecoins. There isn't much innovation going on in the development of Dogecoin, either. While they may have developed a wallet and have some other dev blogs, it still doesn't keep up with the development of the other coins in the top ten by marketcap. The main point of this argument is that Dogecoin's utility is limited to being called money; aside from that, there isn't much going on right now that would significantly impact their position, and they may eventually be labeled a memecoin. > > **Unlimited Supply** > > * There will only be 21 million BTC available, with the final one expected in 2140. In comparison to Doge, which is theoretically endless in supply, it is an undesirable asset to hedge against inflation when paired with infinite mining, which will demand more advanced mining equipment in the future. It also doesn't help that it utilises the Proof of Work concensus, which necessitates a growth in miners in order to maintain the infinitely increasing amount of transactions. If Dogecoin and it's community is really serious about being one of the real deals of crypto, it must find a way to overcome a inflationary limitations imposed on it's code. > > **Price Manipulation by Famous People** > > * It's no secret that notable celebrities and artists are voicing their support for Dogecoin on social media. While this type of support is not illegal and does not depict any known premeditated acts of a pump and dump, it does not stop retail investors, day traders, long term hodlers, and whales from anticipating any post/interaction made by these celebrities with Doge and using the hype it created as an exploitative exit liquidity. Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, is the most well-known famous person that has been public about Doge. There are other celebrities and musicians (Snoop Dogg, Gene Simmons, Marques Brownlee, YouTubers Jake Paul and Logan Paul), but Elon has gathered the most popular backing, to the point where he was sued in federal court in Manhattan for $258 billion in damages. According to the plaintiff, Musk utilized his vast social media influence to promote the memecoin, fraudulently inflating its price. > > *Sources:* > > [*https://dogecoin.com/*](https://dogecoin.com/) > > [*https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/dogecoin#markets*](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/dogecoin#markets) > > [*https://www.reddit.com/r/dogecoin/*](https://www.reddit.com/r/dogecoin/) > > [*https://foundation.dogecoin.com/*](https://foundation.dogecoin.com/) > > [*https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/22/10/29387913/is-elon-musk-finally-giving-utility-to-dogecoin-twitter-reportedly-working-on-crypto-walle*](https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/22/10/29387913/is-elon-musk-finally-giving-utility-to-dogecoin-twitter-reportedly-working-on-crypto-walle) > > [*https://www.dmarge.com/dogecoin-price-prediction*](https://www.dmarge.com/dogecoin-price-prediction) > > [*https://www.gfinityesports.com/cryptocurrency/dogecoin-how-many-coins-in-circulation-is-there-a-cap/*](https://www.gfinityesports.com/cryptocurrency/dogecoin-how-many-coins-in-circulation-is-there-a-cap/) > > [*https://www.ft.com/content/2c3dd96c-b1b1-42fd-ab46-8b4791bf1270*](https://www.ft.com/content/2c3dd96c-b1b1-42fd-ab46-8b4791bf1270) > > [*https://bitcoinafrica.io/2022/02/28/famous-dogecoin-supporters/*](https://bitcoinafrica.io/2022/02/28/famous-dogecoin-supporters/) > > [*https://finance.yahoo.com/news/8-celebrities-were-barking-dogecoin-205843101.html*](https://finance.yahoo.com/news/8-celebrities-were-barking-dogecoin-205843101.html) > > [*https://www.reuters.com/legal/transactional/elon-musk-sued-258-billion-over-alleged-dogecoin-pyramid-scheme-2022-06-16/*](https://www.reuters.com/legal/transactional/elon-musk-sued-258-billion-over-alleged-dogecoin-pyramid-scheme-2022-06-16/) ***** Would you like to learn more?

tldr; Crypto market experts Arthur Hayes and Raoul Pal predict the potential launch of a Dogecoin Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) due to the growing popularity of meme coins. In a Coin Bureau podcast, they discussed Dogecoin's significant market capitalization, cultural impact, and strong community support as key factors. Hayes believes Dogecoin's status as the oldest meme coin gives it an advantage, while Pal discussed the feasibility of a Dogecoin ETF with Jan van Eck, CEO of VanEck. Both experts see a Dogecoin ETF as a possibility by the end of the market cycle. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

Ethereum is a centralized project that first began with a massive 72 million ETH premine. Ethereum launched with 12 million ETH that was given to the developers and an additional 60 million ETH that they sold for BTC as a part of its "initial coin offering" during the presale. The Ethereum developers purposely misled investors by suggesting that there was merely a 12 million ETH premine and ignoring the 60 mi llion ETH that they sold during the presale, misleading total supply graphs in their prospectus. This is a serious concern and it's possible that the SEC may go after Ethereum developers and the Ethereum Foundation for creating and selling a non-compliant unregistered security (ETH is a security because it passes the [Howey Test](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/h/howey-test.asp)). The [SEC has been investigating the Ethereum Foundation this year.](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-03-20/ethereum-foundation-gets-sec-scrutiny-in-latest-crypto-crackdown) Here is [another article about ETH and the Ethereum Foundation being investigated this year.](https://www.coindesk.com/business/2024/03/20/ethereum-foundation-under-investigation-by-state-authority/) [Here is a clip of the co-founder of Ethereum, Joseph Lubin, describing how they allowed whales to use multiple fake identities to buy as much ETH as they wanted during the Ethereum presale.](https://i.imgur.com/HpBR7C5.mp4) "A person can buy with any number of different identities. We may limit the unit size of a single sale to make it easier to disguise. So that nobody scares people with an enormous initial purchase. If you are a whale and you plan on investing several million US dollars worth, then you can do so with with multiple identities." [Now click here and listen to a few minutes of Bitcoin developer Jimmy Song talk about Ethereum and Vitalik.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T89gsJ2MsG8&t=47m24s) Jimmy worked directly with Vitalik from the beginning, back when Vitalik was still working on rootstock for Bitcoin. The Ethereum community has endorsed radical changes and pivots, trying to find narrative fit and the Ethereum leadership team is more willing to embrace alternations to the core objective of the protocol in their search for product market fit. They've literally tried world computer, dapps, crowdfunding, NFTs, DeFi, open finance, radical markets, store of value, and more. Ethereum is an aggregator of these narratives, trying each one out over the years in an attempt to seduce people that are uneducated about cryptocurrency. But there is no persistence of a singular narrative when it comes to Ethereum and they are still trying to find product market fit even after all this time. Ethereum is a pointless project that will lead to no efficiency because there is no censorship risk in code execution. What purpose does Ethereum solve if it comes with a horrible trade off of an extremely large attack surface and huge scaling problems? They also advertised immutability and unstoppable contracts that were then immediately reversed with multiple hard forks. Vitalik and many others in the Ethereum space are known scammers. Vitalik is not an idiot and he knew better than to pitch something as ridiculous as quantum mining to investors. Another example is pitching turing completeness as the valuable aspect of ETH, now pivoting away from that and saying it was never about turing completeness but "rich statefulness." \- [Gregory Maxwell: “Vitalik Buterin Ran A Quantum Computer Scam”](http://www.newsbtc.com/2016/08/17/gregory-maxwell-vitalik-buterin-ran-quantum-computer-scam/) \- [Quantum Computing and Bitcoin with Vitalik Buterin](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkUpZkeqhF4) \- [Vitalik’s Quantum Scam](https://medium.com/bitcoinerrorlog/vitaliks-quantum-quest-9e6af6570f23) Unlike Ethereum, Bitcoin's issuance rate and maximum supply are clearly defined and they will never change. Ethereum's inflation rate, maximum supply, and final algo are not even defined and people are investing in this. This is insane and it basically amounts to faith in Vitalik and his team. While at the same time newbies are misled into believing that Ethereum is decentralized. Meanwhile, Vitalik has full control over the whole project. Does anybody else here remember the DAO smart contract? Someone found a way to drain ETH and some of Vitalik's buddies lost a ton of ETH, so he rolled back the entire blockchain because Ethereum is centralized, Vitalik is the leader of it, and everyone in the Ethereum community agrees with him, so he can do whatever he wants with Ethereum. He chose to change the name of the real Ethereum blockchain to Ethereum Classic and calls his rolled back blockchain Ethereum. Not long ago ETH miners said they weren't going to follow Vitalik into adding a ponzi style transaction fee burn, so Vitalik, the leader of Ethereum, called their consensus a 51% attack and changed the rules. The fact that Ethereum has switched over to staking rewards also has serious tax implication in many countries where merely holding your ETH being staked will expose users to legal tax obligations. Exchanges for example must send a 1099-MISC to the IRS on behalf of any American user earning $600 in a year. Proof-of-Stake also makes it so the already rich whales control the network and will be collecting compounding interest to dump on the open market. Ethereum has already failed to scale as expected and so they have hard forked again and switched to a proof-of-stake consensus algorithm and started over from scratch (formerly referred to as Ethereum 2.0). This was easily done because Ethereum is centralized and everybody in the Ethereum community goes along with whatever their leader Vitalik says. I have no expectation that this new Ethereum will be any more successful than the previous Ethereum and this new Ethereum is still a centralized project that is controlled and ran by scammers. [Now Vitalik is already laying the groundwork for some more hype and suggesting a re-brand to Ethereum 3.0!](https://i.imgur.com/mxIzBYK.mp4) Ethereum scam part 1 - [Here we focus on the Ethereum token pre-sale which to anyone with any financial experience, is an obvious sale of an unlicensed unregistered security.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUUVlatCvp0) Ethereum scam part 2 - [Here we take a look at the value & business proposition of Decentralized Smart Contracts and why it's one of the dumbest ways to make your business more efficient.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCiHTJRbIf4) Ethereum scam part 3 - [The Ethereum scam part 3.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgFXqVpGDNg) https://medium.com/startup-grind/i-was-wrong-about-ethereum-804c9a906d36 \- [Ethereum and Ethereum Classic are scams and so are the developers that build on them](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxtVLjCxPDU) Institutional investors have no interest in ETH and this report titled ["An Institutional Investor's Take on Cryptoassets"](https://s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/john-pfeffer/An+Investor's+Take+on+Cryptoassets+v6.pdf) details why. This report even explains that when Ethereum's fees get too high and things don't go as planned, users will switch (and are switching) to use a different centralized cryptocurrency. You can already see this happening right now with all of the "ETH killers." That report also explains why institutional investors are interested in BTC. "The Ethereum blockchain growing 85 terabytes per year is totally fine. If you have even one person that just keeps buying like a hundred dollar hard drive like I think once every month then they can store it." ―Vitalik Buterin Source: https://i.imgur.com/1FZdLC5.mp4 Over 99% of altcoins were created to enrich their founders and over 99% of them have no future. None of them are as secure, as decentralized, or launched as fairly as Bitcoin. Satoshi created Bitcoin to allow online payments to be sent directly from one person to another without trust or permission from anyone else. Bitcoin had no premine, no developer fund, no developer tax, and no leader. Satoshi never sold, made no profit, got no fame for his real identity, removed himself from the project, and he gave a two month heads up before he launched Bitcoin. Bitcoin is decentralized and trustless with the full nodes in control of the protocol rules. And Bitcoin doesn't have a person, CEO, or company in charge of it or leading it. Satoshi took careful steps to make sure that the world would look back and observe that Bitcoin was launched fairly: * No premine (Satoshi didn’t grant himself any coins) * Gave a 2 month heads up before launching the network (no sudden release and no mining before release) * Coins had no value for 1.5 years so they circulated freely (it's not even possible for an altcoin to replicate this) * Satoshi never cashed out (unlike every other cryptocurrency founder)
