So one of the persons behind Qtum is Bo Shen. If I remember correctly he was associated with Bitshares before the horrible split up that crumbled the vision of DAC . Kinda mess up and those DAC projects were down in the gut until now with no further developments.
Very loud statements about Vitalik. Why would he cut the branch on which it sits. Investing money in a Qtum is a good idea (it also invests in Humaniq) but leave the ethereum, he just will not. This project will delight us with various interesting news and rumors.
