$BTC is pure ponzi now. It disgusts me. The dream was corrupted. I have donated mine to the Ethereum Foundation. I don't want it.
$BCH has some hope of recovering the original Bitcoin vision. $ZEC and $XMR have valid use-cases. $BTC is unusable.

Yes, there is huge stigma. But fuck the stigma. I am not ashamed of my history.

This is strike

#EthereumClassic
is now dominating non-BTC mining. Whether or not that is currently profitable, given the excess of hash which can no longer mine ETH, is another matter.
ETC network hashrate seems to have settled to a new equilibrium close to 150 TH/s. Peak was 300 TH/s.

Want a "Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System?" which actually works in that primary function?
That is $ETH, not $BTC. And that is only 1% of what you can do with Ethereum.
Money is just the first dapp.
Today, ETH processed 50% more TXs than BTC. Pending TXs: ETH 98 BTC 30k. TX cost: ETH $0.006 BTC $6.5. Avg TX time: ETH ~18sec BTC ~15min

It‘s incredible, isn’t?
But they have such a large self-printed pile of XRP that they can self promote and fight legally for years.
It’s never been used for anything real at scale. Banks have no interest. It’s all a facade.

Don't forget
@VladZamfir
's warning, which is still in force.
Many people make the analogy to the web and say that "It is like we are in 1993".
Nope. It is more like 1986, I think. Everything written in C. Printf debugging. Segfaults and memory leaks.
We are still SO early.
Ethereum isn't safe or scalable. It is immature experimental tech. Don't rely on it for mission critical apps unless absolutely necessary!

I am interested to see if any UTXO-based smart contract platforms can balance these two factors and make something with rich compute and parallelization.

And there must be other attempts at programmable UTXOs.
