> Hackernews hates Ethereum It does? I admit I'm pretty ignorant of the nuances of all the little alt coins, but I know Ethereum has something to do with distributed applications, with a VM, and I've always thought that cool in the abstract. (though I have no idea what I'd do with it.) Just probing for information, not trying to have any "tone", do you know what the distaste for Ethereum is rooted in? |

It is still not entirely clear to me how much of these things are problems with Solidity (name of said language) only, or if any of those issues are core to the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) itself.
I remain hopeful that other languages targeting the EVM will bring to fruition the full potential of Ethereum in a safer manner.

Also some people dislike the fact that Ethereum is executing every program for every message on every blockchain node. I agree that it would be better if it didn’t have to do so but I don’t know how it could be avoided in a distributed trustless system.
