I'm all sold out, lol. I've only got like .8 of an ETH being mined for now. I will probably sell it too, once it's a whole number.

Wish now I'd held on to a few, but I put the last up for sale above $28 last night and this morning they were all sold.

As always in trading, and I don't care if it's stocks, commodities, or whatever you're trading, you're kicking yourself coming and going.

I am going from memory, but etherium looked like a very ambitious and interesting project. I think any focus on “etherium as a currency” is misplaced, since IIRC the primary focus of etherium was as a decentralized, distributed data, contract, and code platform.

If anyone familiar with the project can chime in: why is the focus now on etherium as a currency? Wasn’t the whole project geared towards generic storage? I remember that one of the goals was for etherium to serve as a platform for webapp code such that the code was executed by nodes of the network (and would therefore be free from tampering, and would not have a single point-of-failure). Was this wrong?
