What is the risk-reward trade-off for Ethereum’s migration to the Casper Proof-of-Stake model?

Colleagues, the Ethereum ecosystem is facing a hard fork this October with the implementation of two EIPs currently under consideration – EIP 1240 and EIP 1276.  At stake are the so-called difficulty bomb and the security model used by the cryptocurrency. Bitcoin has limited its currency to 21 million tokens, whereas Ethereum lacks consensus regarding the number of coins to be issued. All of the above pose a significant risk-reward junction for the world’s second most valuable cryptocurrency. Decisions will impact the broader ETH ecosystem in a big way. The Cryptocurrency Academy would like to hear from Ethereum developers, traders and ecosystem partners on their preferred approach to resolving these major issues which are legitimate growing pains for the global cryptosphere. Send us your comments today!
