Will EthereumPoW prove to be successful? (Reporting via _prashantjha)

The core team“ETHW Core has to make the hard decision to temporarily freeze certain LP contracts to protect users’ ETHW tokens until the protocols’ controllers or communities find a better way.”

The team also said freezing would not be applied to the staking contracts that only involve a single asset, such as the Ethereum 2.0 deposit contract and Wrapped Ether . The idea of freezing users’ assets without their consent didn’t go well with many in the community. One user reminded the core team that “freezing hardcoded LP smart contracts into the ETH clients is definitively not decentralized.”If you want to protect users from bots draining ETHW from LP, then other measures have to be taken.— Alberto Rosas Others went as far as to call it a scam and recommended reporting the Twitter account claiming to be the core EthereumPoW team.

I recommend reporting this account as a fake. There is no"official" ETHW core team, and they are proposing a rushed changed to code which freezes contracts as selected by individual people. No EIP discussion or vote or anything. This will likely just create a 3rd fork. Scam.
