Why Is Ethereum Co-founder Proposing a Hard Cap?
On April 1, ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin played a “meta-joke” on the cryptocurrency’s community by proposing a hard cap of 120 million on the number of coins issued for ether. As it turns out, the meta-joke wasn’t a joke at all. Buterin is now suggesting that the community consider the pros and cons of his Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP). He has also proposed a revised issuance number of 144 million, in case it is too late to impose the 120 million liit.

Former Mt. Gox CEO Questions Bitcoins Evolution

Gox, the world’s biggest cryptocurrency exchange until its crash in 2014, revealed that he did not think bitcoin would evolve from its current problems in the near future. “The technology is definitely here to stay, but Bitcoin may have trouble evolving and keeping up,” said Mark Karpeles.
