ETH HARD FORK, any tought?

[albio87]

hello guys, i've read about the ethereum metropolis hard fork and i'd like to discuss about what it implies in terms of impact on the market and in the technical aspect of hard fork:

-I have the doubt that the dumps of these days are due not only from Chinese news, but also from the desire to lower the price of the etherum in order to accumulate more in view of the hard fork as it happened for bitcoins.

-From the previous thought comes the one of a technical nature =>will the hard fork be like for BTC? so keeping the eth in a wallet during the process will be with the same amount of new eth+ old eth?

Maybe or maybe not, and I don't think the hardfork is going to happen anytime soon just because most of the coins are dumping. Where have you read this from and can you post a link of the rumored hardfork for Ethereum?

I've been hearing this for the past few days and I still haven't seen any news of hardforks in here whatsoever:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/

The price is also not caring about any of that. I think nothing has happened.

This is all that i've found:

So I don't see any date on this happening. Why is people talking about ETH hardfork if nothing happened yet?

there are rumors about it due to the roadmap released at the beginning of the year, so this is why people talk about it i think

After China reporting that will bans ICOs mostly cryptocurrency are down including bitcoin but it's not take long time the situation back to normal. And then they reporting again that China shutting down cryptocurrency exchanges the case occurred again. I do not know why China so greatly affects the prices of cryptocurrency including bitcoin.

About Ethereum hardfork there will be not another sub/new ETH after hardfork. It will be make transaction fee cheaper than before. So that Ethereum price will likely going up after hardfork.

well maybe the fact that the majority of miners come from china with their huge farm and cheap energy cost

Almost a valid point except that the target of the price war wasn't ETH but BTC. ETH had already come down to half its ATH even when Metropolis was confirmed (a matter of when and not if). The accumulation is happening even now as a result, with ICOs doing the exact same thing. It won't be the BTC hard fork, where you have competing. I think people will agree to it and everyone will just move on with the new ETH.
