Ethereum is inherently Unstable with a Huge Implementation risk

The Ethereum price could be soaring, but a critic is now poking holes in ETH theories. 

Here are 7 reasons I am not optimistic about Ethereum’s long-term future.

#1. It is not immutable and can be censored. The developers can roll back transactions and change the rules whenever they want. They can also be pressured by others – such as governments.

Citing the platform’s ever-shifting and evolving development nature, he said the network—despite its mass following-is inherently unstable and not built on a workable finish product. 

He also dismissed talks of decentralization, saying Ethereum relies on its prodigy founder, Vitalik Buterin, and its core developers.

Accordingly, while there are plans to make ETH scarce in the long term, its total supply has no lid and can be changed at any point in time. 

Additionally, from an infrastructural level, a big part of the network operations rely on Infura that instead runs on the Amazon Web Service (AWS). 

If this critical portal is downed, the Ethereum network could suffer a significant service disruption.

Therefore, even if JP Morgan says ETH could flip Bitcoin, he remains firm on BTC. He concludes that Bitcoin is founded on firm ground, functioning as a hard monetary system with a crystal clear use case.

IOTA Phase-2 Launches

Chrysalis Phase 2 of IOTA—a blockless DLT network, is now live, migrating over $1.2 billion of assets. 

The upgrade, which is arguably the most extensive enhancement in the network’s history, is designed to make it enterprise-ready. Chrysalis has been described by the co-founder, Dominik Schiener, as the “best version of IOTA.” 

Let’s talk about improvements:

Among some of the improvements made include block reduction that makes processing faster and more efficient. Other features include reusable addresses, UTXO, and readiness for key application layers.
