https://themerkle.com/ethereum-cash-hard-fork-opposes-pos-and-issuance-reduction/

one thing i didn't understand from this article was, how do they plan on solving the issue with "Difficulty Bomb" the article just mentions it but never says what Ethereum cash is going to do about it.
it existed from early days and there is no way around it without significant amount of change to the whole system and it will make mining impossible.

in any case it is interesting to see that "consensus" means nothing with ethereum. :D

Yes, it's unclear what they plan to do with "Difficulty Bomb"  ...

it is another burning alt coins, that forking only as good as the old version of ethereum, any new new update of ethereum, the ethereum cash can't catch up and besides ethereum cash has no enterprise and real world adoption, it is just a form of coins and any further development ethereum cash cant' rival its smart contract and proof of stake solution to blockchain.

i sense another pump and dump is coming to ethereum.
it may even be some very quick and small pump and dump to make some money out of it but it will be an exit strategy because of the fear of hard fork and that can cause a lot of issues with the price of ETH.

the only thing coming out of it is money if you can catch the pumping part of the duo and also the fact that ETH will go back to its real low price.

Yes, we will never see double or triple again with Eth. I don't understand why people like Eth so much when it have so much flaws, this contract thing is not worth billions and billions. People leaving their money with Eth probably risking to lose most of it value. It is not a smart investment to leave your money with something like Eth, people even invest in Ethereum Classic when it clearly offer and do nothing right now.

Not in favour of ethereum cash. Another hard fork of eth chain will occur and again eth coin will face difficulty for a particular time period. Is that something that will favour the big whales again like in bitcoin cash they did??

"Difficulty Bomb" part is not clear how it will be handle. But anyway interesting to read it.

interesting choice of words!
i remember always seeing a lot of support coming from the big blocker camps (aka the bitcoin unlimited attackers). and they created the bitcoin cash altcoin.
do we know who is behind this new "ethereum" cash now?

and i don't have to explain how using the word "cash" with something that is not supposed to be used as a currency according to the developers sounds stupid ;)

p.s. i am also confused about the Difficulty Bomb! Vitalik placed it there for this day, so nobody can defy him 8)

As long as 1:1 for every ETH holder.

I assume the by issuance of ETC the ETH price will not go down We did not see the value of BTC go down when BCH when was issued. It is fine as long it benefits all the Ethereum token holders.

Has anybody been able to find out, who exactly are the developers
and backers of this Ethereum fork?

The official website linked in the article is down currently and the
only result that I could find using Google was the linked
themerkle article.

I´m very skeptical of this fork at the moment, but depending
on the exact details it could be useful for speculation purposes (or provide
free money for all Ethereum holders, if people get ETH on
both chains).

I'm really not sure about this but, i strongly think that this fork will never work. Eth already has so mich wrong things going on with it(flaws). And the issues present is really contributing into my doubts which makes me even more skeptical about the fork. But hey, free money is awesome. And if the things mentioned in the article really come true, then i think it will really help both eth and ethcash.

And on the other hamd, I would really want to know who is backing this fork up. This curiosity is killing me. I wanna have full details so I can hold or dump my coins if i see something nice or fishy. (Have asked google but he doesn't know.)

Well the people who want to keep mining will back this fork up, or at least they will try to.  ;D

First, like everyone else here, I am also curious of that "difficulty bomb" thing. I do not get what it is for or what purpose will it have with the upcoming etheriumcahs or etherium itself.

Now, i think it is a good idea, and as long as i get free money, im in. Lol. But really, I'm quite excited about what the outcome of this fork will be. So my decision is, I won't dump my coins just yet and wait for the fork to take place. Imma get myself some popcorn. xD

Hi Xavier,

Have you read this article http://www.cahf.co/

Not intended to create FUD but for awareness.. There are links to more articles at the bottom..
Do let me know your views.. and hope it helps ..

Thing is, Ethereum is now very established and many consider it more than an altcoin now. So, in terms of a hard fork, will it have the difficulty it did with the break from Classic? Or (and I think this is more likely) will it actually be resistant in the way Bitcoin was? I don't see any clear benefits of Cash, I'm not sure about this "Difficulty Bomb" either...I don't really see why it would massively threaten the price and usage of Ethereum.

How do I know this is a fork and not just a token? Where can I read more about Ethereum Cash?

i would really suggest to make this hard forks illegal, due to market manipulation
look at what happening with bitcoin and the whole market because of that hard fork
even if i can earn on this somehow, i dont play their game

This is actually a very important aspect to consider for Ethereum investors and traders. By guessing the outcome of this issue there's an opportunity to get some profit out of that... Or some loss. :)

ethereum fork is just difficult to categorize. it may be good and it may not. it depends on the community. I'm thinking it may actually bring some good improvements to ethereum, and that the whole fork will be an interesting thing to observe ;D

Ethereum cash? seriously,  I dont think thats happening.

Thanks for that article. Looks like an interesting project. They are just tradable on Etherdelta or are there other exchanges? Going to watch this coin in the next time! There could be a great hype!

is the ethereum cash you are talking is the same ethereum cash who have made airdrop few days ago?

I think ethereum is a slow developing currency. It will increase step by step, traders are like to buy ethereum. Because this is the second top most valuable currency. The ethereum is also similar to bitcoin, but bitcoin is highly secured currency when compared to ethereum. In future traders are investing ethereum.

Be serious guys, this shit isn't even worth the keystrokes for your posts...
Same goes for all similar shitcoins (you know who you are)...

I think the anwer is yes and that was including on the scam coin. Ethereum cash is different with bitcoin cash because that was just an ethereum asset has created by scammer to grab the more money.

How could the answer be 'yes'?

There is a coin on the market calling itself ECASH (ethereum cash), already distributing tokens and handing out airdrops. How could this be the coin produced from the hardfork? Isn't this exactly the same as the coin calling itself Bitcoin Gold (XBG), which isn't related to the upcoming hardfork of bitcoin in any way!!

yes, yousday is correct. i am just asking if this is the same thing that has a ticker of ECASH or ETHC. im not asking if this is the same of bitcoin cash.

sigh.

This coin is total failure.

Oh, it�s so hard to find the best way to trade or hold crypto�

Why did you say failure? What are your reasons?
Do you actually know what is Ethereum cash?

they trying to make easy and simple but there's is no clear to all to make fast understanding about this system, yes the word of cash make sense to others but the system they not get it clearly how those make process in this world,

today  400 thousand  ecash   selled  by dev  address!
and  i  told  this  problem  in their  tele,guess  what!  i  was  moved  out  from  their  tele!
it  is  scam!

Agree. Such kind of behavior clearly shows that the project is scam

Ethereum cash is since yesterday on yobit.net, i just saw it and wanna share with you all

that big sale lowered the price from 18 dollar cent to 1 cent and now it is listed in yobit.net.
i have sold them somewhere when it was 3 cent but bought it again today

I don't think ethereum has been able to have any successful fork the last one they intend to have on 19th has been cancelled i heard.
