[ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning

[vitocorp]

The venture arm of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) is expanding its exploration of blockchain to include ethereum.

UNICEF, as previous reported by CoinDesk, has spent much of the past year weighing whether blockchain can assist in its mission of improving the lives of children across the globe. The agency's work with the technology forms part of a broader effort within the UN to apply blockchain in various use cases.

Sounds very promising for all the children that invested in Vitalik's Ethereum fork.

Now next boom should be in Ethereum unexpectedly for many who are little bit detached of this. People with eyes on recent developments and market signals already have prepared themselves for next double price. There have been so many good things with Ethereum that can not be ignored to get maximum out of these.

They want to get a piece of this cake, the good thing is that the pieces are getting bigger. Todays volume is 2.600.000.000 $

I am wondering if there is a final limit of mined Ether. I read about that one day Ethereum should become PoS and the creation of new Ether should stop. I could not find any information about whether and when it will be. Can someone give me saved information about the maximum Ether topic? Thanks in advance!

There is a proposal to limit the creation of new Ether, I think everything will come in the next Metropolis update that I believe will come soon.

are we going to talk about plasma?

[Fargusson]

are we going to talk about plasma?

Apparently not... That's maybe because the website is so 1990's

I went through that and I have more questions than answers. But they say the FAQ and a new website will launch soon. So let's wait and hopefully we'll have more clarity in near future.

Noobie question:
Is ETH address not case sensitive？
e.g
0x53f40b6829E91434Ef95019F27978C189cA34a98
=
0x53F40B6829e91434Ef95019F27978C189ca34A98
?

Does anyone feel like these ICO's are getting repetitive?

It sure looks like the era of ICO's is over, the new ones are either scams or they collapse immediately after the ICO end.

The newest tokens are almost always shady, not that competitive and repetitive.

Too many good ideas but poor implementation and follow through

Guys, what do you think about current Eth price?
Is it some fair price right now, or is it undervalued?
I don't believe it may fall deeper.

The currenct ETH price is the natural price. One month ago Ethereum went from 200 dollars to 350 dollars in just one week. That was a whale pump, after that the price declined to 220 dollar (natural). It's growing now again but in a natural way. Ethereum will definitely rise and by the end of next week we will probably hit the 350 dollar.

Agreed with you price is looking stable after got corrected now it's looking on nice streak and I think so it will reach over 0.10 BTC is coming days as it is still rising. It's much hard to predict about the future of any crypotcurrency.
