RE: If the DAO Attacker Shorts ETH, Buys ETC, and then Refunds the DAO Hack Victims on the ETC Chain

"Ethereum Classic Is A Scam
Why I feel Ethereum Classic is a scam and a lame attempt to derail the growth the Ethereum community has enjoyed lately.
Shortly after I file this story, I’ll be selling off 80% of my personal Bitcoin holdings; or more accurately, converting them into Ether, on Coinbase."

Interesting "Vitalik Buterin in the past, have indicated at least tacit support for spin-off efforts growing out of the project.

He told Backchannel in an interview earlier this year that in the event of a community split, he’d be “quite happy” for the project to adopt a different approach.

"I generally support just about every secession attempt that comes along. If in the future there is that kind of a dispute in ethereum, I’d definitely be quite happy to see ethereum A go in one direction and ethereum B go the other,” he told the publication."

I definitely like the fact that Vitalik has been so understanding all along of those who opposed the hard fork. It's pretty refreshing compared to the bitter infighting over block size in the btc ecosystem.

Hello Wise-brain, why would you sell bitcoin and convert them into Ether? I bought $1,000 worth of Ether on coinbase at $14.90 and I'm looking at other currencies to invest in, so I was just wondering why you put your money there?
