I see it from both sides of the fence. I see what cryptotrends is saying and I lost money when the DAO was hacked so I was less than happy with a less than professional approach, especially after the developers had been given prior warning of the weakness of security.
However, similar to Bitfinex, like Craig says, it's a bit gangster and people with high integrity can loose out to hackers who will be rewarded if a laissez faire approach is always the consensus to crypto.
@michaeldodridgeI was invested in TheDAO myself. I know how it felt to to see your investment being drain from the account day by day. I would still not trade that for a hard fork to gain my investment back. I have followed Ethereum since the ICO, heck even before that when the words was spreading on conferences. How Ethereum and Vitalk talked and acted back then is completely different from today. This was ment to be an immutable censorship resistant "world computer". It simply is not any longer, it is the "mutable by the few computer".
