no talk of ethereum any more?

[BTCLovingDude]

not so long ago this board was filled with ethereum topics, to a point that it got annoying. so what happened?
did they stop paying the shills to post for them?

or maybe they are getting ready for a massive pump so they are holding back on making any sound and silently accumulating! the volume is still high!

what do you think?

ETH have been on a slow price movement now and volume established today are not that interesting to make day trades. So for this kind of price movement, it's better to just hold ETH and expect for some highlights again. Take note of the issues back then that's why it turned out to what is it today.

Im too annoyed for those ETH threads that even considered as the next bitcoin just because the price rose to really large percent. And now look at what happen for their speculation.

Perhaps it's just not that interesting to stick around here -- Ethereum founders and fans do not need (and never really had?) to push it on Bitcointalk all that much for people to become aware of its existence as it has already established itself (and in the meantime, has become uninteresting as it is not successful in what it originally set out to do -- that's how I kinda feel). Ethereum has a long time ago "transcended" this space and focused on expansion and partnerships out there in the "real world".

Ethereum hype is dead, yet the price remains fairly stable.. They need a major announcement to get new investors on board..

The price is strong because the marketcap is also very strong and big enough to not get dumped to the ground, you can't kill  a coin with 1 billion marketcap so easily, but i believe that the pow turning into pos will make etheruem in trouble, it will fade away slowly until forgotten like litecoin or other big old coin

[eckmar]

Well ones who keep posting those threads are miners and traders. For miners ethereum is no longer most profitable coin and I guess traders moved on to something more profitable for them too.

Not after the DAO disaster. They won't.

yes its true , 2 months one of my friend was saying "annie trust me invest in ETH after February 2017 , Eth will be next bitcoin and price will be more then 300$ "

It seems the developers are really asleep despite the fact that etherum has proven to be a great project but the problem I have seen it that part that developers are to easy to give up insupporting their project. After a while they just stop the support thinking everything will continue flowing hoepefully they can just wake up from their slumbers..,

People are trading coins that run on Ethereum and are spamming threads of coins that exist on Ethereum blockchain and they dont even know that.   I remember one guy on Poloniex trollbox, he wanted to pull one coin off Poloniex in his wallet and was asking if Ethereum wallet is only one he can use since he dont really like Ethereum and would love to use something else.


This is what happened. But in general Etherum have same old problems they had a year ago. They will not just go away if they will keep having closed eyes.

I remember what the Ethereum community was like before the big rally to $1 billion - it was a virtual ghost town on their official forums and even their slightly-more-popular Reddit page was snail's pace.   It tells you most of the Ethereum community are fairweather friends - only around when the price goes up and, when it stagnates / declines like it is right now, then the ghost town becomes apparent.  A lot of this is because Ethereum has zero users and only speculators and the speculators are leaving after repeated lies and hacks.

Bitcoin still has never recovered to MtGox $1250.  I would be surprised if Ethereum ever recovered to DAO $20+.  
Investors may not waste their time on social media but I think they have a decent memory and don't want to risk their money on things with precedented security issues.

NEM is flying under the radar still but China Cert's report indicated NEM has the best quality code and security for a blockchain.  NEM did 2300% ROI in 2016 and I think it will do another 1000%+ in 2017.  Don't let FakeNews Coindesk persaude you to put another dollar into Ripple, Ethereum or even dogchit Doge.

I think it's just the question of what's interesting. Ethereum is still important but not nearly as much as before, ever since the DAO hack and then Ethereum Classic, it just lost all the momentum it had. Similar to how people used to bash people for supporting Monero/Dash as their prices rose. Now that the prices are stable, there's nothing that interesting to talk about; doesn't mean people don't care.

So, wake up from your delusional, dude. at least every investor or holder who have made some of the bucks for their pouch won't be giving a cent for you.
PoS Casper will be releasing soon. and what's next it seems ETH will be the hybrid PoW and PoS.

you don't know how the marketcap works and it actually because of this huge marketcap will die slowly over time. just the same way Dogecoin is dying right now. these coins with a huge supply and an increasing supply have always been getting dumped as fast too.

but the same as Dogecoin or other coins that doesn't mean they won't get pumped and ethereum has a big pump overdue.

[Immakillya]

I haven't read any thread about ethreum for a long time. Just this one only. The price surge huge amount and the forum is talking about ethereum. So what happen now guys? I guess because of hard forking issues. The community were splitted in to 2. But the marketcap is still in good amount. I just dont see a significant sign that it will pump anytime soon. Maybe it will take time to pump again.

This is a normal thing in life, people move where the money is, Ethereum price has plateaued out and the probability of growth has decrease drastically because of the level of uncertainty that surround the project.

[Spoetnik]

That was 1 year ago during the great hype + pump.
Time to move on..

People follow the money (what ever is pumped up etc)

Why are you all surprised ? This is not about being a project supporter but a greedy god damn leech.

Quit being naive low hanging crypto-fruit noobs.

Yes that's true if I remember there was at least 5 to 7 topics about ethereum that are always in the first page of this sections and since I'm not into Ethereum I seldom visit this section,now I rarely gor 2 top topics about ethereum.

there is no argument there. i have also followed the money by catching up on the pre-hype and buying some pre-pump and make lots of bitcoin in the process of the pump(s).

and now that another big dip happened and i bought some at the bottom, i am not ashamed to admit i am waiting for another possible pump but at the same time i have my eyes out for any other possibility.

and besides one of the main features of these manipulation coins such as ETH is that the owner and the whales are never done with them that easily.
