Ether hard fork and prices

[krypt0n1]

The hard fork for Ether, Byzantium – the first leg in the update – will occur at block 4,370,000, or roughly Oct. 16, which is tomorrow. How do you think it will affect ETH prices?
It seems that they already have a bug, patched it but I don't know.
So, how do you think ETH will be price wise tomorrow?

This one passed very quietly. I was expecting some price fluctuation at least. But it passed like nothing happens.

Any ideas should we expect something more?

This was just the first of several upgrades and one of the more minor ones at that. The next few forks will hopefully have more of an impact reflection in the prices. On top of this, way too much attention is currently no the bitcoin gold fork, so many announcements/upgrades are being overshadowed. Many people are expecting some of the BTC money to go into ETH after the gold fork.

Also, there is a major conference during the first week of November which should give ETH some more attention in the very near future.

I think we could see pump within a month. Also HP recently joined the EEA. Now is the good chance to get in Ethereum train, before it leaves. Also there is FUD about bugs. If more bugs will come, more will price drop. But hopefully it will not happens.

What are the larger forks in ETH? It is my experience that anytime BTC drops, ETH drops also. Do you guys think should I wait to buy more ETH when it drops along with btc or join the train as anotherbit suggested?

just wait.....patience is key.

With the GPU mining will be around 7-8 dollars. Easy mining means low price.

What do you mean? ETH is already mined with GPU???

I think nothing is better in advice than this little cute statement. Actually business is all about the patience and right decisions. Nothing is complicated in it. And if you enquire from expert traders about this little best formula you said just said here, they surely appreciate it. Because you only have to decide once for a particular thing, so that must be right. And patience helps to make it right.

Well i think it will go up once all the btc fork news clears up.
Right now not many people are focused on eth i think.

400$ after btc fork

Yes, for me price will eventually go up after the hard fork. It will recover and continue to high after this event. So, the best time to buy eth and hold.

ETH will always have an attractive price because it is still in the care of BTC.
when BTC has a hard fork it does not take long for ETH to follow BTC, so basically ETH will always develop well.

I beleive on ethereum future this will be soon a high price. Ethereum until today is strong and for sure price will regain after this hard fork.

Apparently, no need to rush since only time will tell. We can only predict, we cannot see the future.

It might still be okay to buy now though and I am really setting my stop loss, cause once anything strange starts happening, I am selling up straight. However, I am optimistic and hopeful. Learnt the difficulty has dropped and I am just trying to see how that ends.

[ridertiger]

Well, XLM is already recovering, so I believe the same thing will happen to ETH, which should go up to 400 USD soon.

400$ after btc fork

[lordzc]

Without the BTC gold and segwit2 events, it would have been between $ 400-450. Everyone focused on these two hits.

[imperatron]

I am sure Ethereum will rise up in the next time. They just lowered the miner rewards, so the total supply is lower and will we have a fomo like we had it on Bitcoin!

[Mrs Troll]

So can we expect rise to 400+ after 25 of October when pepole will start to change their bitcoins...?

The price of ETH is just around $300 now. It might rise after the bitcoin hard fork.

[various]

almost no change in price after this update and they have not fixed their security vulnerabilities.
a lot of people's money stolen yesterday. this will badly affect the Ethereum very much

[xenomorphe1]

Did you just see the big drop of ETH price?
Some people maybe just realized that there was a hack of Parity wallet.
