Yeah, I know, right? I don't trust actual, qualified fund analysts to pick real investments for me, I stick largely to index funds. Yet a bunch of cryptoweenies have decided to pool their money in cryptoweenie form in some kind of insane, fragile investment club, so a bunch of cryptoweenies stupid enough to think this is a good idea can collectively vote on what to do with each others money by simple majority vote, without restriction? No. Just no.

Right now the proponent of this fraudulent scheme, slock.it, is actually urging people to spam the blockchain to slow down the rate of theft. Yet the true believers are claiming this is a "learning experience" that will make it all better in the long run. It's beyond satire.
