I want humanity to progress forward.

I see Ethereum as an experiment in which a group of intelligent people are trying to build a new technology that enables us to find solutions for serious real world problems.

I'm thinking about medicine, cancer research, DNA decoding.

The computing and the sharing of information that comes out of Ethereum-powered networks might enable us to crack the human code and regrow the limbs of amputees, fight HIV, fix brain damage, solve paralysis,...

I am not saying that Ethereum will lead to this. What I am saying is that Ethereum is one of the attempts to reach this stage in human progression.

And this is why I do not understand the hatred from some people towards an experiment like Ethereum. Hatred that wants them to harm Ethereum directly.

I'm referring to the ETC trolling, to Silbert trying to manipulate the markets, Blockstream trying to manipulate public opinion in a negative way.

I don't get this kind of mindset these people have.

I'm also wondering, imagine for a moment that Ethereum becomes a huge global system indeed, running complicated tasks and leading to breakthrough solutions in medicine...

And these Ethereum-attackers or their loved ones suddenly require medical attention (which one day they inevitably will). Will they just leech off from our technological advancements without any feeling of guilt?

Or worse, if their loved ones die from HIV in 2027 and an Ethereum-powered network like Golem cures HIV in 2028, will they not feel partially responsible for having delayed and hampered Ethereum development in the early stages?

These are the kind of questions that I hold. I know these posts of me always get down voted, but imo it doesn't always have to be about money. We are trying to improve our world.

These are questions Ethereum attackers should answer to imho.
