[ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning

[IncludeBeer]

can someone tell what will happen if ETH will fork ? There will be 2 coins, right ? so ETH1 , ETH2, and ETC ?

No, there is a difference between a chain fork and a chain split. Forking is normal. The Metropolis update is a scheduled fork. It will upgrade the protocol, and everyone is onboard with that.

A chain split occurs when there is contention over a fork (or really, at any other point where some minority wants to split the chain, for whatever reason). ETC was created due to a chain split, because a minority disagreed with the update that occurred from the DAO fork.

Now I do not know what to expect.... 

Now more seriously.... Why is the price droping? Still the fake news from china ruling?

[adaseb]

Is the software released yet for the Metropolis hardfork?

I see no way this being completed in-time for block 4,300,000.

DO you guys know any trusted websites where I can generate ETH paper wallet ?

MEW (myetherwallet.com) is the best. You can even download a copy of the site and run it offline.

Thats amazing you can download the site

It's called open source bruh! All kinds of amazing software you can download, compile, and run out there. 

I just found out if Myetherwallet includes open source, especially on this site we will have its own privet key so if the matter of security would be guaranteed.
if I may know other than MEW whether there are other sites and trusted.

There are no other sites more trusted than MEW. It is the most proven web wallet develop exclusively for Ethereum platform. Many well known crypto currency enthusiasts can vouch for its reliability and safety.

Eth is pretty much getting hammered right now, I expect it to go down to 200 USD.

It's not ETH's fault, it;s just these cowboy speculators that  trade on Coinsbase or other centralized exchages. They can easily swap coins back and forth into fiat, while we the true ETH holders who have out ETH outside exchanges, take the hits.

Fkin fiat traders

So for now there is no most trusted web wallet besides Myetherwallet, by seeing your opinion that this Etherreal platform has many fans proves that MEW is very popular for now and definitely very safe, but what about phising whether MEW will be immune to wrong one of these crimes

If they fix it, then I can see 100 billion by the end of the year. But right now I am bearish on ETH.

It's a good project but the TX capacity and the bloated software code really needs to be fixed. This turing complete idea has to be abandoned and we should strive for sandboxed smart contracts.

Sort of like a decentralized  and sandboxed smart contract platform should be the new motto, not this turing complete nonsense.

I have been away for many hours. In that time, I've changed. I now know what it's like to live my life without hanging on every dollar change in the price. Learn my lesson. Trade without emotion. Do not worry about unrealized losses, or about the Gains which could have been. Decide what price you think is fair, and if you see that price, buy. Decide at what price you would be a happy seller, and at that price, sell. Do not buy with the Credit Card, for if it is worth buying, surely it is worth waiting a week. Buy with limit orders, and do not change your limit orders if they do not trigger within 10 minutes.
Gamble if you gamble, invest if you invest, and know the difference.

Since ETH is rather volatile right now while OMG is going strong,
is it a good idea to convert all my ETH to OMG and convert back to ETH at a later point?
Ofcourse, assuming OMG will start rising again
(similar or faster than ETH)
once the bull sentiment comes back.
