*Ethereum Dev calls for public debate on fund recovery... it describes what the Ethereum project is. Can we call it a blockchain?
I think Ethereum will suffer from many more hacks, every new token that gets launched on it's base becomes a potential loophole...
Should we let the hackers get away with it, what do you think?
"rewriting history" is not actually hard on a blockchain, because you don't need to literally remove the transaction from history, rather you just add a new block on the end that says to ignore that particular transaction (or to apply some corrective action, like doing the opposite transaction). The chain is still immutable, but the transaction has been functionally deleted.
