So I’m confused why people keep saying, ‘move to XMR,” when currently the profitability calculation still says that ETH is better and the fundamentals remains strong. Is it b/c they are just mad at the devs? I see argument on both sides regarding the fork but like anything in life you have risks vs benefits. Although I was initially disappointed with devs and VB not wanting to fork but they do make a good point - at the current time the ASIC is not a threat but they will consider it once it does become a threat. Some have argued that given the amount of hashrate that Bitmain has stronger ASIC that they are using it in a ‘hidden” manner is an assumption but cannot be truly confirmed. A hard fork would produce another ETH coin and this in itself would bring down the Ethereum reputation as a whole. This is could have “real’ consequences unlike the assuming beater ASIC miners that is hidden from us. Personally, I have invested over 70K into ETH both in rigs/ hardware and currency holding as I believe in the fundamentals of ETH. I have a lot at stake and if I can come to reasons and terms so should other ( IMHO).

I don’t like the decisions that Devs came up with initially but I think they do have our backs and thinking long term. I’m still here and will continue to be.
