Will this result in a new coin? If so... How can we get it?

Noob question... I know, but i can't seen to find the right info on Google

I do not think it will result in a new coin it is basically an overhauling and upgrade of the eth network to overcome scalability issues and also reduction in miner reward that will reduce daily supply and also eth value and then change of eth algorithm from pow to pos will be in next stage. I think with all these changes, upgrades and improvements we are going to see a new version and face of ethereum and personally i think all these will put extremely bullish effect on the price of eth.

I heard it the first time from you, is that really legit does anyone knows ?

Thank you. Hope you are right about the bullish efect:)

With the decline in ETH prices and ETH ratings on the market, it is likely that new coins will be won by winning stronger ETH deficiencies. if seen ETH is very progressive from September to now. ETH might carry out a system quality update, I'm not sure if it will give birth to new coins in January.

I don't expect ETH forks, because in my opinion the blockchain program is very friendly, if 2019 makes an ETH fork. maybe ETH will be stronger, but after all, what is the opposite effect.

The Ethereum hard fork might be one of the game changer that can flip up the market condition, it will happen soon so time to buy more ETH before the price goes up when approaching the hard fork  ;)

The hard fork will not result in any new coins, it's just an upgrade that won't really do much. They still haven't solved issues about scalability, no idea if it will be ready before it's competitors cardano and EOS

It's a stupid question. This information is open. Of course - NO. This is just an upgrade of network. In such hardforks there is no new coin. Check their twitter next time!

Please where did you get this information? You should have included at least a legit source of your information to this post. Let's hope such an act doesn't crash the market like Bitcoin cash just did.

I came across this through a friend today and i believe the creation of  hardfork is just to update the existing platform of ethereum, perhaps i should just call it an upgrade.
By virus of this, ethereum will be seen grow by next year and the bullish market might be boosted by the new development, which is a good thing for the crypto space.

2018 has passed and we always expect 2019 to bring lots of luck and profits for investors, so we will welcome 2019 with promise.

this is the right answer, every time a hard fork is happening, surely there always aims to lift its value in the market. etherum does have to do that to always improve their value.

Hardfork? Or softfork ,I haven't heard about any hardfork and all I know is ethereum will upgrade its blockchain sooner to POS and something called ethereum 2.0 with will bring in some new changes ,I don't know if this will have it get better or worsen it but I'm sure the dev knows what he's doing

I don't think anything could top the volitility of 2018, but your right - I welcome 2019 with eyes looking up  ::)

As for a fork, who cares about more shitcoins. Hopefully they don't make another market, all the eth2 coins are taken and there is already a classic version, soooo... Nope, no more forks please

Yes, there is in roadmap Ethereum hardfork and have even own name "Constantinople". It shouldn't have any impact to normal using Ethereum, but for sure will be very important for Etheruem future. Here you have more details:

https://www.hardforking.com/upcoming-ethereum-hardfork-constantinople/

It's actually a hard fork which would immediately discard it's former branch as there are none in favor of continuing that.
This has already been done with Ethereum and would be done several more times to get the planned results.
No you won't be getting another coin.

this time the fork will improve the ETH network and also ensure whether the POS system implementation will start launching or not
due to the recent ETH price rising 17%, perhaps because the effects of bitcoin also rose from 3400 to 4000
but what is certain, ETH Fork in January is indeed true, it will not issue new coins

If everybody will keep on holding , this might results to crisis of coin so it need to have coin circulation in the market and hard fork is one solution of this crisis but it will change the trend and the price itself .

ethereum will improve their networks to be better. so I think the current hardfork provide enough impact either. perhaps luckily for many who already bought the ethereum at a price low enough time then and it has increased slowly and gives the profit to its holder.

If the ETH has a hard-fork, it will choose some reputable exchanges to perform hard-fork and we will get new altcoin free.
We only need to deposit our ETH number through the floor they choose, then just wait.

Yes, I hope that with the presence of Hardfork Ethereum, the Ethreum price will increase, because we know that this Hradfork is Hardfork which is very much awaited waiting, and I hope that more will buy Ethereum.

Indeed I have heard about Ethereum coin fork, but I have not heard more about this fork, fork Ethereum certainly given to the customers who hold Ethereum, my date and time is unclear so now we better invest our funds in kin ethereum, and if this fork happens we already have Ethereum, while the Ethreum price is down.

Constantinople Ahead: What You Need to Know About Ethereum’s Big Upgrade (https://www.coindesk.com/constantinople-ahead-what-you-need-to-know-about-ethereums-big-upgrade)

There is still enough time before hardfork occurs and considering that bitcoin is currently in the recovery phase so I think ETH prices will continue to increase. If you want to buy it from now it seems it's not too late, but I don't recommend to buying it after hardfork happens, because usually the price will fall on the deep.

I heard about this news about the new ethereum hardfork that will going to happen in the next year january 2019. It will be a new coin which is called serenity, but it is the ethereum 2.0. They said that it will be 1000x way more better compared to ethereum nowadays.

ethereum will have an important hardfork event at the beginning of 2019 and hopefully this can provide a good start so that ethereum prices can be very expensive and prices can recover.

if a hard fork that is meant is hard fork appearsnynyin ETN I do not think so would be better than ETH although equally smart contracts,and will remain better ethereum

From what I have heard the fork is more of an update in protocols and code and is not likely to result in a new Ethereum Variant coin. When a coin does fork if there is a second coin it is generally sent to the holders of the original coin in the same wallets.

There will be no a new coin and it has stated in so many times.
You should read the more about that
https://medium.com/utopiapress/what-is-ethereum-serenity-f433d824c974

You can see that how it was working from that article and serenity will focus to increase the scalability of ethereum to be used for the business purpose.

as I understand this update will take place without the distribution of any coins. although I can be wrong. but in any case, you need to buy Ethereum!)

Ethereum is one of the main coins in the cryptoworld, I advise you to learn more about the top 10 coins, at least the basics.

The better the Ethereum network and the project as a whole becomes, the stronger the whole market of altcoins and all projects related to Ethereum will become.

Well the most notable forks had happened to bitcoin and bitcoin cash well am still in doubt if there will be any ethereum fork certainly not next year that's if there would ever be

information like this is still ambiguous, there is no definite clarity, maybe this is just an issue so that ethereum prices rise, who knows?
after all, in my opinion, the impact caused by ethereum hardfork will be a bigger problem in this ethereum network.

I think you can easily find a lot of answer for that question. Please firstly make your search basically in the internet. You can use Google. It is so easy.

Please go www.google.com and make simple search in it.

For example I found this : https://www.investinblockchain.com/ethereum-constantinople-january-2019/
 
https://ethereumworldnews.com/ethereum-hard-fork-test-goes-awry-no-constantinople-in-2018-developer-says/

https://cointelegraph.com/news/ethereum-devs-reach-consensus-to-delay-constantinople-hard-fork-until-january-2019


See? it is so easy.

In my opinion, after the hard fork of the new token will not be, since it is unprofitable for the holders themselves eth, but even if this happens, then all holders of eth will receive a new token

the update that will happen in January will not lead to the genesis of a new coin, so you should not wait for a free distribution

I think that there will be detailed and truthful instructions.
On account of the new coin - it's all guesswork
According to the announcements, it is more likely that already existing protocols and systems will simply improve, improve the competitiveness of ethereum.
should have a positive impact on its price

You should have eth in your wallet, when hard fork every eth will split depend their new system. But hard fork it doesn't mean will create new coin because hard fork means fix old system and replace new one, system not coin. So I think you should the news carefully and don't panic because some people use hard fork to swing or recovery asset. Understand hard fork and good luck to you.

Not all hard forks resulted to creating new coin. The Ethereum Constantinopole won't result to new coin, it's.simply an upgrade that will increase the transaction time in the ethereum blockchain. This is only one of the upcoming upgrades for 2019. This might trigger the ethereum price to go higher.

I don't think there will be a new coin, it's Ethereum 2.0 kind of, but I don't know for sure. Everyone needs more clarification on Constantinople, we all are waiting for it. It's a good thing it's helping to boost ETH price. Well, from the sneak peak, it will happen Q1 next year, probably January.

This is what is called marketing and it is definitely planned from the beginning of the creation of ethereum.
When someone creates objects and objects that do not have a price, there must be an update including bonuses and repairs.

Ethereum has now given the lure of HARDFORK. LOL

They said that it will be Ethereum 2.0, or the serenity, But I am also confused if it will be a new coin like bitcoin cash has done with 2 new coins, I guess the ethereum upgrade will just going to develop Eth itself not creating more coins in the future.

What? Ethereum 2.0 or serenity? From what i know, from this hardfork there will be new coin, which is called Bithereum. You can get it just by HOLD your ETH in wallet or exchange which support this hardfork before the block happened.

yeah, you are right.
if the increase in the time of transactions in ethereum blockchain gets better, this will bring investors more trust in ethereum and the effect of that is the price of ethereum will pump.

It's not that people don't understand (me included)... There are a lot of misleading articles online and for a newbie you don't know what to believe:)

A article stated that every hardfork results in a new coin.

I wish everytime there is coin will hardfork it will have an effect for the price too however recently i have do small research and eth will hardfork with bitcoin too which mean these coins will do hardfork at the same time and people who hold eth or bitcoin will get Bithereum as the hardfork results but i can't figure out how to claim new coin from those hardfork and this news maybe will not 100% valid and could be wrong

Ahaha I got this point.
Maybe also for beginners who understand this must sell Ethereum when the price is green, before Hardfork finishes and becomes Red. LOL

This is a sweet trap when the market is down! LOL

We are waiting for hardfork ethereum but do not expect new coins to appear, which should be done by giving investors confidence back so they can add more valuable ethereum.

yeah, I have also prepared a long time about this ETH hardfork, and I already have some ETH, I don't expect much, at least the price goes up to 100 USD it's already better than dumb,

A lot of things can happen in the crypto market come 2019, With high Market Volatility we can never tell or we can only speculate on what to become on Ethereum come 2019? But i don't think it will be a new coin to replaced Ethereum come 2019. Ethereum will remain in the market and regain the favorable market status in the future.

$100 increase seems to be pretty low. Without even the hard fork, last week ETH went up by $70 and was near to $100. So I think after the hard fork price would increase by more than $200.
These forks do really affect the market with such decrease in market caps after the event.

yes, I heard the news, even many argue that if ethereum will fork in January 2019 it will produce new coins! . but try to think that this is only an increase in the network!, so in hard work like that it will not produce new coins again.

I think the hardfork this time to produce a new coin has a small possibility, in my opinion this will be a renovation of the system on their platform, if there really is a new coin I am sure the distribution will be the same as BTC and BCH ie 1:1.

We all wait for the hardfork ethereum and hope that with hardfork it can add value to ethereum itself. We have been waiting for a lot of hardfor a long time, and hope that there will be a positive impact so this waiting is not in vain.

Ethereum is not fork purposely for new coin. Unlike bitcoin,.ethereum is focusing on improvement, scalability and better growth and efficiency of ethereum system. The new fork should fundermentally improve the use of ethereum platform and ethereum performance!

i dont really know if that make new coin,but i hope this will ke good news for ETH.
because no good news we hear since 2018.hope this not like BCH hardfork.

I don't think a hard fork will happen if there are is consensus that miners will upgrade to the new version.
A hard fork might cause another problem like what happened to BCH.

I think to ethereum will focus more on network improvements for the better system. whether it will expand or improve the hardfork the clear aim of enabling ethereum became a little better. the team behind it certainly hope this will be the starting back for the recovery of the ethereum and impact on another crypto as well.

It is still very early to make any predictions although the fork is very close. I guess, the price of Ethereum can grow a lot closer to the second week of January. Thus, it will be the best decision to buy ETH now.

But the price has already partially increased on Ethereum. I am now waiting for the price to fall by 10-15% and I think that this will be a good chance to buy this strong coin. ;)

I always hope that the event which will be run by ethereum in January next year will be the beginning of an increase in ethereum prices to return to the highest price again

Indeed. Ethereum needs to be improved, so it will see an important Constantinople hard fork in January, 2019.

As far as I understand, the developers want to introduce 5 new features in the blockchain technology of Ethereum. The founder Vitalik Buterin proposed his scaling solution to be implemented in the new version of the software.

I'm astonished by the reduction of block mining from 3 ETH to 2 ETH, which is based on state channels and side-chain transactions. I guess that this improvement can have a positive impact on the ETH price in the future, because inflation will be reduced.

https://www.investinblockchain.com/ethereum-constantinople-january-2019/

What ever it is we will be sure that we will have the same amount of the tokens we have on Ethereum.
This Fork will reduce the mining from 3ETH to just only 2. But what we should be worry about on what will be the effect of it.
It might crash the market again though, ERC-20 or ETHEREUM is one of the most use cryptocurrency which may give positive effect.
What ever it is, we will see the result on the third week of January!

No, Ethereum fork from January 2019 will not result into a new coin, but will just add some improvements for existing ETH.

Regarding the price of ETH, it might increase within the next month, but that's not a certitude. ETH is very undervalued at the current price so it can be a good catch while waiting for the next bull run.

hardfork usually gives birth to new coins and how to get the habit through how much Ethereum we have through the market that has been agreed upon, if there is a local exchange there is also usually but it depends on the exchange party whether or not there will be.

Yes I believe too. The price will get bull's attention and start to move upward. Let's see if this coming month it will start to move since January 2019 is approaching already.

Yeap, I have the same information. So, this time we won't see a new coin in our wallets (.

This is very good news from the Ethereum team, and I think their PoS system will serve as a good investment for the big players, which could have a major impact on the price of Ethereum in the new year.

I guess the Ethereum will still be the coin, our investment will be profitable I believe. But if there would be another coin that will be created, still we can gain profit out of ethereum as many supporters invested too much to it.

Just read more about the hardforks. If a coin announces a hardfork it means you would automatically get a new coin, if you are holding the old one. But remember to check the exchanges that are going to support this hardfork, otherwise you won't get any coins at all.

Just found this article:

"In the first month of the New Year, Ethereum will experience several hard forks, 3 of which are most significant:

Classic Vision Hard Fork – 11 Jan 2019: All Ethereum holders will receive 3 ETCV for each ETH in their wallets.
Ethereum Nowa Fork – 12 Jan 2019: Each ETH holder receives ETN in the ratio of 1:1 for free.
Constantinople Fork – 16 Jan 2019 (or earlier) Constantinople Mainnet hard fork scheduled for block #7080000: The Constantinople Mainnet hard fork is arguably the most significant fork because it is a big component of Ethereum’s transition from using a proof of work protocol to proof of stake."

They say that will be new coins....
