HI all thers is a news  surround the crypto ether hard forked like bch // many are says its not hard fork // this just a update,,, plz make  clear guys every one comment will appreciate

Hello, the hard fork of Ethereum will open in January, when you only need to put ETH in your wallet, you will receive the token when you fork.

It is not basically an update. It is an upgrade where the whole blockchain is changed, the code is changed, everything you can see in the ethereum is changed.

How will it affect the current ETH holders?

what a strange topic. Hard fork already passed. it was not an update but a complete separation of the whole coin. the team has split itself

iam not aware eth hard fork plz if u kindly give some more details..

hardfork will happen in the mid-January later. some people buy ETH and save the wallet them to get etcv. and this will surely impact on the Exchange rate ETH at the beginning of year

When you read that? From what i found the constantinople hardfork didn't started yet,
source on here https://www.coinspeaker.com/constantinople-fork-ethereum/

Hardfork for ETCV is another hardfork i think? Since constantiople hardfork for ETH doesn't give you any new token while it happening

which hard fork are you talking about, the ethereum classic vision? the hard fork is yet to happen, it'll happen in january 11 as stated in their website, ethereumcv.io (http://ethereumcv.io).

if for hardfork, they usually give birth to new coins and if for renewal they usually improve the system first with the new system,
but many say that for ETH it is hardfork.

You will not get any new coins, it is just an update of the ethereum platform. It is different from the bitcoin / BCH fork where you get extra coins. With ethereum you will get nothing, just what you already have

About hardfork this is a bit confused, updates can increase the value of ethereum, but some provide info about new coins. I only think of updates that can later provide an increase in eth values. Hope that this moment will be an important and good moment.

I really hope that this update will give a good impetus for the price of ETH and finally we will see a rally of bulls!

there is no harm in trying, if you do not get anything we buy coins that are reputable, and suppose that we are investing. by buying ethereum and holding it back for longterm

I think everything is clear about the ethereum hard fork that will take place in the first quarter of 2019. If you have not heard about the update, indeed this is a very good question to clarify the experts here. If there is an effect on the price of ethereum, well I think it's natural. Thank you!

As far as i have learnt Yes their are both events coming one is the hard fork where new coin will be airdropped to all eth holders on 12th of january but the main event is the network upgrade by eth developers and it is called constantinople upgrade which will occur around 15 16 january. Both these events are considered bullish for eth. Whatever the outcome of these events im super bullish for eth for this whole new year.

1. Constantinople hardfork has not started yet, it will start at block 7080000 in the middle of January 2019.
2. ETCV is a separate project, it is more like an airdrop based on the snapshot instead of the chain split. Like we used to be with Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash

please read it, first guys, before asking the same question.

In the middle of January the Constantinople hardfork will be started. But there is also another project ETCV it will be on the same date. But here your can reach some new tokens.

from what it seems, this is just another token created out of eth platform. are you referring to this project (ethereum classic vision)?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5089443.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5089443.0)

they are totally different team from the real eth developers. it's like another altcoin derived from bitcoin. and their token, it is derived from ethereum. maybe they intentionally planned to have that date. so people are now confused...

I think its not an update from the word itself "hard-fork" means that they are going to create a new coin from ethereum and called it as " constantiople " not sure about the name of new hard fork of ethereum but I think it is .

Do you have an official explanation from the news website or others about this? because about ethereum in January 2019 it's quite confusing for some people including myself. Some time ago also the price of ethereum jumped up, maybe it was also because of that information?

There will be less ethereum produced by each block and that could affect the price of ethereum too. Some people are saying there will be a serenity coin as to be a hardfork coin caused by the serenity update in ethereum hardfork but i don't know if that was only a rumour or true story.

I also saw this yesterday andi tried to read through about them. This is coming so soon, but one of the things bothering me is that, the identity of the team is not revealed. Although, no one is asked to pay anything to receive the fork, but to hold ETH in one's wallet. So the higher the ETH in the wallet, the higher the amount of the the fork that will be gotten. Well, the dates for the who thing has been made known?

Obviously, It is the good news for crypto environment so Ethereum block size is increase in future. But I did not see this news in crypto platform. So If you clarify in exact date and name in Ethereum hardfork it should be useful to everyone. I think next year first quadrant is the best time for Ethereum so this will be perfect coin in current dump.

This is a fork that should have been in the past but according to mistakes it was extended. I was expecting 16th of January which as far as I know, would not create any altcoin. But few hours ago I saw ETCV bounty which will be finished 11 January. When I look at them, it is possible to find information about both but I still do not understand which one is right.  ???

Hard fork creates a new branch of blockchain.
Whether there would be two different coins or just one depends on whether the old branch is continued by someone or left.
In the past, when ETH forked itself, a group of developers and miners stick with the old branch and named it ETC.
But the recent hardforks (multiple of) from ETH devs are for improving the ETH blockchain and there are no one in favor of continuing the old chain.

In my own understanding, pertaining this Hardfork of ETH tagged Constantinople, its more of an upgrade, not necessarily creation of a new cryptocurrency. I think it won't be like the usual Hardfork many have in mind, as I got the Intel from some trusted sources. Let's see how it goes anyway.

Hardfork is good, I think the network will work much faster, and in the price the coin will grow well.

Hopefully this hardfork will make prices increase.
but a lot of crypto after hardfork, the price even more destroyed.
hopefully this will not happen to eth exchange rates later

This is the first I'm hearing of a potential chain split. I hope that will not happen and that there will be consensys among supporters and developers.

Do you know what Hard Fork is? or just don't know about ETH's hardfork? Well, in january 11, there will be one that will going to happen and it will be a new coin, Ethereum Classic Vision in which, when you store and hold ETH in your (PERSONAL) wallet, you will get x3 of ETCV.

Ethereum Hard fork (Constantinople) talks has been since October, but rumors have it that it will happen January 2019.  It's an improvement or upgrade in ETH architecture and not necessarily birthing a new coin, in my own opinion. Let's wait for proper updates from Vitalik and his team anyway.

Ahh, so it's like a system update and the name of that update is Constantinople. At first  I thought it was a new coin to be launched.
Anyway, I wonder why other members say that it will be a bullish run for Eth after the upgrade? Is it because many will get interested on it and attract more investors? Or anything else?
So hardfork is the real deal? My only question is if all eth holders will receive etcv and unfortunately the wallet they're using not yet support that coin, then where etcv will be stored now?

---

Honestly, after reading all the posts above, I'm still a little bit confused. I don't know what to believe in. In an upgrade or hardfork? Or both? (Maybe better to search it by my own later ;D)

Since it's an upgrade, it means positive for the holders.
You'll be holding a new coin and I believe the price will rise because it has been expected that this upgrade in development will solve
the problem in the past. So, if you are here for the tech and to make profit, better start buying now, price will likely to skyrocket soon.

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

according to the article I found, that in January 2019 Ethereum will not issue tokens or new coins for ETH owners, that means you will not get any coins
and additional information, that the Event Ethereum in January 2019 is an upgrade to constatinople, which is the backbone of the ethereum blockchain network

i thought its just an upgrade but if there is going to be an ETH forks then there is going to huge  dump for ETH .. We expecting ETH to raise because we all know there is upgrade going on in the network . But if there going to be forks then let expect dump on ETH ..

If there is a hard fork on January 11, for example, I have 10 ethereum, how many comparisons will I receive ETCV, is it 1: 1 or 1:10 I don't know ??

Thats what I understand too. It was only an update and no new coins to be given. Though this ETCV hard fork I think is another hardfork not connected to constantinople. Anyway, if we receive an ETCV thats fine, but I am looking forward that this hardfork will somehow drive an Eth price to a few hundreths maybe.

I confuse, why it look with ETCV I mean hardfork no any connect do all, I dont think ETCV what happen it, do know core-team or anyone within developer?

We need to know the Hardfork is part of the development of ecosystem-related functions refer to the agenda and several sources like on Github developer ethereum. the Hardfork is mostly Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) describe standards for the Ethereum platform, including core protocol specifications, client APIs, and contract standards.

I saw Hardfork at block 7080000 - current block = ..... x 14.5 seconds/block miner = .... : 86400second/24hour = xxxx day.

Meeting-Agenda Dev, prepare before of HF Friday 04th January
note, the hardfork will not set any new coin other things like old ethereum classic (ETC) so an original preparing of ethereum 2.0 and under-main PoS also an including scalability (TPS/network/etc).

hardfork ethereum does not produce this new coin just to update the Platform for the better. like many people who mistakenly respond to this information, they think hardfork always gives coins.

You want got profit with ethereum, you can buy and invest now, last few week ethereum will hardfork and have new coin, its more stronger to make ethereum will have higher price.

No hard fork will be real same as Bitcoin and bitcoin cash. The update will be a little later it will include investing in ETH and mining from storage and more. Wait for an official statement from the development team.

 Ethereum fork and Ethereum 2.0 is a good sign for the market. Beacuse most of the tokens base with erc20 platform so rising of Ethereum should affect them too.

As far as I know it will be 3:1. Every Ethereum in the wallet will receive three ETCVs. But not all wallets will accept and using supporting wallets are more reasonable.

ETH's main fork will be on the 16th of this month and no new coin is expected. There will be fork in 11 January, which ETCV will be created. Check it: https://ethereumcv.io

Of cos people are confused ,there is no split chain at all its just a soft upgrade for ethereum

As far as I understand 1 eth in return is true 3 etcv? if so, exactly how much is the price of etcv priced?

Thanks for this sir, I have seen the Ann thread, was about to ask the same question. But I have a clarification to make, going through different articles about the hardfork which is coming up on 11th  January 2019, I really didn't see anything like a new coin been created. All I could see is just majorly the upgrade of the network otherwise known as the Constantinople. Please, do you have any detailed articles that cover the new coin to be shared in 1:3 ratio? Thanks a lot.

since you got some ideas, hope many will share there own too.

from my side i just want to understand, how this works, etcv, do you mean they are changing or adding. like bch=bchcv

It will really affect the ethereum holders simply because the price might spike again and aside from hard fork they can gain another token will be give after the hard fork. There few days before the ethereum update and I really hope that because of this update it might triggered the price to increase again.

Yes, about this fork Constantinople a lot of talk goes,and many are waiting for it, I think it specifically for the growth of the market is adjusted,and the approval of the SEC,and it will serve as a good explosive mechanism that will give a boost to Ethereum, very much in the price to rise, well, as they say

There was no a correlation between ethereum fork and ethereum 2.0
Ethereum fork is not a part of ethereum 2.0 and you should know the differences between both of things. The rising of ethereum caused by ethereum 2.0 update

This is a real hardfork and a new cryptocurrency will appear. I am sure that many are interested and they will want to make money on it

Ethereum Hard fork (Constantinople) has been confirmed by many big exchanges like Binance, Kucoin, Coinex.  The block height has been stated and also a date range, say between 14th to 18th according to Kucoin, so no exact date and time was stated. This will be a major transition for ETH blockchain,  from POW to POS and it sounds good to me. So basically, it's just a major upgrade on the existing architecture and not forming a new crypto.

It will be only a development upgrade as I know and now new coin will be released.
Anyway, the market reacts on it positively as ETH  price is increasing faster than other coins do.

This January would be an exciting month to Ethereum supporters as the blockchain will be expecting three hardforks.
Details of which are as follows:
1. Classic Vision Hard Fork on 11 Jan 2019 and all Ethereum holders will receive 3 ETCV for each ETH in their wallets.
2. Ethereum Nowa Fork on 12 Jan 2019 and each ETH holder receives ETN in the ratio of 1:1 for free.
3. Constantinople Fork on 16 Jan 2019 (or earlier) Constantinople Mainnet hard fork scheduled for block #7080000

Looking at these updates, the Constantinople Mainnet hard fork is arguably the most significant fork because of the benefits it can provide the ethereum blockchain like  Ethereum’s transition from using a proof of work protocol to proof of stake.

The only thing I can say is that the ETH project today has a lot of publicity that will be in the new hard fork after it is released, let's see how it will work in practice.

I read some post on social media that there will be three hard forks for Ethereum. The promising one is the Constantinople Fork which will happen on block #7080000.

So many people are coming up with their different opinions. As far as I understand, first it is called a fork and this can come up in two different forms. It is either it is either on the coin or the network itself, but I think it will be on the two, but it will happen in faces. First, the team is dealing with the coin, by creating another coin, then another phase will be to upgrade the system and introduce more and better features.

A hard fork means an update of a coin. You are not gonna receive any token/coin for that. Ethereum will just simply add a code in the eth blockchain for making it PoS. So, hardfork is only a kind of system update.

There will be 3 forks:
11.1. Ethereum Hard fork - Ethereum Classic Vision will be created.
12.1. Ethereum Hard fork - Scam Ethereum Nowa will be (probably) created.
16.1. - Ethereum Hard fork - Constantinople update, this will get Ethereum closer to PoS update.

After the hard fork, hopefully ethereum prices will skyrocket again and soon reach $ 1,000, I hope that 2019 will become a crypto moment and revival so investors are not afraid to invest

This update are much awaited from both supporters and new investors, after seeing this great rally coming from the exchange most of the people are now buying back and holding their coins, anticipating that they will gain a lot after this fork happen whether the value will rise or they will receive the allotted coins coming from the fork.

People are buying Ethereum specifically now, so that later on they will receive Etcv, when there will be a division!

You just need ethereum on your ethereum wallet where you hold your private keys . If your ethereum is in exchange then you dont get ETCV . This is a hardfork not an update buddy . Good luck !  ;)

Yes after hard fork ETH price will soar up and I am very happy after a long gap the value of eth is pumping which is really good to see, A lot of them were saying it was a temporary pump but ETH has different thought. Hopefully 2019 will be a great year for ETH users.

it might be just an update, but Tehran has little progress by defeating ripple in the market cap, and the price continues at the pump. Regardless of the hard fork or update, Ethernet continues to grow well.

this hardfork ethereum you will get etcv coins for those of you who store your ethereum in wallets like myetherwallet and others, don't save it in exchange because there is currently no market that supports this hardfork ethereum, although I hear rumors that binance exchange places support hardfork ethereum but I don't know for sure whether they will give etcv for ethereum holders or not.

What do you think about ethereum classic vision hard fork? is it legit? I have no idea, but looking at signature, around 500 accounts are into this game!

I also believe that this is a fact that prices will rise faster and recover Ethereum prices, everything just needs to be a little bit of time and we will know if everything is real or fake. But I believe it will surprise us at the best price possible from ETH  8)

Nope, it's not an update, it is real hardfork. There are currently three incoming hardforks in this January 2019. The first one is Classic Vision Ethereum many people consider it is a scam project, and I do agree, you can find many article in this forum so feed your self-up. The second one is NOWA, some people said it scam and some say it legit, and some other say it is just a shit coin. The third one is the most anticipated Constantinople hardfork that has been delayed, and I wish it will really be happen on 19 January.

a hard fork can also be an update. they are not different things. but also a hard fork can be a "process" that creates a new coin out of the old one if there is not enough consensus about it.
in case of ETH upcoming hard fork i don't see any consensus and there is quite a lot of mess going on with it which will leave it broken and with at least 4 different new coins!
and that can damage the price greatly.

A transition from proof of work, to proof of stake is the most clear information that the fork will going to have. Well, if its an update, sure the effect will be good. Let's keep an eye on it and see what it can do in 2019 and in the following years of cryptocurrency experience. I hope it is not just ETH that will become bullish  but also other altcoins.

On the 16th January is the main update of Ethereum network  - Constantinople hard fork (no another coin will be created on this date), it will increase network scaling and reduce the reward for mined block from 3 ETH to 2 ETH.

Yep, it has no any separation , it is just a update in roadmap of Ethereum with 5 EIP (suggestions for improvement). It helps ETH's system run smoother to prepare to switch to POS

People are waiting for the update of Constantinople because of people curious how it looks like including myself. I think many of them don't care about 3 projects you mention and they still want to see the update from ethereum project. But if they can get new free coins or tokens, then they will accept with a big smile because they get free coins. It's about 10 days again until we can see the ethereum hardfork and I hope that it will trigger the price to the higher price.

I’m
Not sure how many tokens you would receive
But most likely it will be 1:1 I guess

Worry less, just ensure to have etherum in your myetherwallet

I have ever heard about the hardfork of the ethereum, there are two, Ethereum classic vision and Ethereum .... (I forget the name).
Well, if it is the real fork, we may wait for the good news about the next condition of the ETH itself.

There have been a lot of argument on the ethereum hard fork,whether it will give birth to new coin or whether it is just an upgrade, whatever the case may be,11th and 16th is around the corner, I guess is best to wait and see.If you feel like,you can keep ethereum in your wallet.

There are a lot of topics that scream about hard forks, the most important thing is that people today are already beginning to understand what the ETH pumping should be, so today there is an opportunity to do it this way. I think that today will be normal if you just send a little ETH to the exchange.

In fact, in January Ethereum is waiting for as many as three hard forks:
- Ethereum Classic Vision - January 11
- Ethereum Nowa - January 12
- Constantinople - January 16.
The third of them, Constantinople, does not imply the creation of a new coin.
Planned and coordinated hardwork that was originally specified in the roadmap Ethereum.
As for the other two, as a result of these hard forks 2 new coins will be created: Ethereum Nowa (ETN) and Ethereum Classic Vision (ETCV).

ETN and ETCV are not official hardforks performed by the ethereum team. so there doesn't seem to be a big impact on the price of ethereum. after all, ethereum is good now so communities don't need other coins that are similar. I am sure that Hardfork ETN and ETCV will not be successful, because until now they have not announced which market will be Listed.

no. in order to get a free coins in your hands, you need to keep your ETH coins in wallets, not in exchanges

The ETH project fork really makes a huge amount of effort in order to make the project itself much more interesting for investors who are now looking for projects to invest. But not only for this.

The hard fork will take place on 16th of January and that will be an upgrade, known as hard fork -which means it needs to be installed across all nodes in the network to function as intended.

Believe me, it is thanks to this news that ethereum has grown so much in price, since hardfork really must be very serious.

I agree with you that the other two hard forks are not official ethereum upgrade unlike the Constantinopole wihich has been listed as one of the series of upgrades in their roadmap to improve the ethereum blockchain. Also, no new coin is about to be created which is really good for ethereum because usually a hard fork accompanied by creation of new coin caused a decline in prices of the original. But, this time Constantinopole won't. Just an upgrade.

There are three upcoming hardforks of Ethereum. The first two have already passed and they were just another scam. The real hardfork is going to happen during this week and all the major exchanges and MEW wallet are going to support it.

Also i am little bit confused about this matter you already asking. Personally i know that this is a Constantinople Upgrade Block number 7,080,000 and something i understood views by thirdening also you can see from this link https://pages.consensys.net/constantinople

Its a hard fork and that is a confirmed news. Now earlier these kind of news used to make serious impact but this time it seems as if the crypto industry is not even paying any attention to it. The price is still not getting up.

Because people know that when they fall for the FOMO they might regret later as the whales will once again cash out and will result to a dump of price. It's not effective anymore and proven not good in the market, watching a more stable growth than a sudden pump, besides ETHEREUM is a legit project with huge potential so I don't worry for the short term.

I don't really think that the only most and foremost hardfork ETH Constantinople will going to have a free fork crypto. Well, other fake forks says that they will have in a ratio of 1:3 just like that but still they scam.

I have just noticed that there would not be any additional coin. A hardfork is the Ethereum 2.0 blockchain update and is called Constantinople. There won't be any new coin guys, so relax and see what happens with its price.

it is true that there will be no ethereum tillers that will appear on the hardfork. and a lot of projects that deal with the name hardfork ethereum will get coins, so surely that is a fraud project

If everything is great, then you and I will already be very close to seeing everything that we have been striving for for a very long time, you understand that the world today is definitely at the level of new technologies that will continue to clean up the current financial order.

I am not quite sure but to my understanding, they will implement a hard fork in mid february because it was moved by their schedule, but I am still not sure if we are going to receive additional token for the fork reward, because they only said that they will just update some lines to make it more faster.

There will be no fork, this is just a long time ago planned update. All these forks are just another shitcoins that want to use some news around ETH blockchain update.

This is an update and not hardfork, because the Ethereum platform will be updated, without new coins!

What do you mean ? The hard fork was moved to the end of February. Because a critical vulnerability was found.
