Hashrate still dropping like a rock.

ongoing..

What does ETC's hashrate chart look like???  I'd imagine it that chain just as bad?

That is similar as the profitablity of the mining is very similar.

Any ideas why the price of ETH crash?
Strong BTC?
The focus transits to ZEC?

I think you have already given out the answer. In order of of ZCash and strong bitcoin. The ZCash could be very high.

Ethereum will fall further because ZCash is strong!?

We will see Ethereum $10?

$9

Zcash will come down big in the next month, assuming there isn't a fatal bug or fork, Eth can go down to $5, doesn't really matter if you're long.

especially wile btc rise)

the price of Ethereum dropped so much recently? Is that due to the second hard fork?

They're already on #3

It's also due to the BTC uptrend.
ETH price in USD ($10.88) hasn't gone down much.

Ethereum won’t scale like you’ve been told.

ETH price in USD ($10.88) hasn't gone down much.

Won't it be safer to have USD instead of ETHF3?

After more hard forks or the further developments, it is possible that the Etheruem will be more robust.

It pos change with something in etherum?

The original plan was in March next year. But it might not happen or the change will be in phases.

Once it goes to POS, similar with other miners, we will move on to another profitable coin and then it will slowly die.

The Ethereum has very large hashing power attached to it. It might be difficult to find another coin.

Ethereum has potential still, but with Bitcoin's RSK smart contracts, is it possible for them to overtake us?

I don't think so.

Normally, the first to introduce concept on big level takes over the market.

Take the example of Bitcoin. After launch of Bitcoin in 2009 , many currencies were introduced which were better (in my opinion) like Ethereum. But none of them have been able to suppress the dominance of Bitcoin. Bitcoin dominance remains > 80 %.

There are already many smart contacts on Ethereum. As the smart contacts progress, Ethereum also progresses.

Generally, we tend to follow the crowd.
Since many are using Bitcoin as cryptocurrency, we use it. And since, many successful smart contacts have been launched on Ethereum, so we tend to use Ethereum smart contact.

Additionally, Vitalik himself helps out establishment many smart contacts.

So, don't worry. Bitcoin RSK Smart Contacts are very behind that of Ethereum.
