Crap article.

Moving to PoS nullifies this: "about 13 million new ethers are mined each year; theoretically forever."

Including the word "theoretically" is typical etc scammery weasel wording.

Using "bailout fork" is more etc scammery. Shows a distinct lack of understanding on the author's part repeating this mantra. It has been explained time and time again why using that word is technically incorrect.

More nonsense: "The jump in number of core developers for ETC speaks for itself"

Those hired hands are solely there to port Charles' pet project to the blockchain. It could have been any block chain which it is specifically designed to do. It serves Charles' purpose to use this one as he can influence his way as those trying to develop for this blockchain are not very good and will take anything from anyone at this time. Like wise the pump and dumpers that pretend to believe in this chain will also take any news of any kind provided it tickles the price movement. They have zero interest or care in the technology or the chain itself.

Bizarre article form a seemingly intelligent fellow. Wholly inaccurate in more ways than three. Not sure why he would want to post this crap under his real name and affixing his academic credentials, which will come back to haunt him when he tries to seek real employment in the future and all of these inaccuracies surface under his name. :-(
