I have some questions about ethereum
1. Any corporate implementation of Ethereum will be on a private chain
2. All these tokens will fail at some point
3. The posts on this board have gotten much worse than the start of this bubble
4. I like many on this board are obviously in way over our heads and can't afford to lose, not all, but many.
I'm holding 150 ETH I bought in February.

Not one question mark in the entire fucking post

Feel free to post them
the answer to your question is a question unto itself: your a fag
I've always wondered why people get so excited over ethereum potentially being adopted by companies. This likely means they'd borrow from, if not fully utilize, ethereum's infrastructure.
This is in now way implies that they have to use ether, that everyone here is buying.

Please keep this in mind.

Yes, but if many are using the blockchain to build stuff on it, then the network will be of value and maintained, and access and infrastructure of Ethereum will be supported (because it has to).
Think of a blockchain as "http://", the Hypertext Transfer Protocol we use to access websites today.
Think of a blockchain as a data structure that everybody can write on but nobody can delete anything from.
Writing on it the notes on who has how much of a unit ("coin") is just one immediate application.
Even if the companies don't do anything with Ether, it's all about which blockchain (which internet protocol) will survive.
PS, pitch me a project

I got a raspberry pi and running an ETH node on it. It's been about a week continuously powered and I'm only 1/3 of the way through the blocks. Is this normal?
