The war is not yet over. This is going to be an exciting race. I can see more and more developments on these 2 top companies but I won't count out the other solid crypto killers like ADA and Stratis.

Vitalik Buterin stated that if all the cryptocurrency community achieves is memes and immature puns, he will leave the sector for good. Buterin also added that he will not stop blockchain and Ethereum development solely due to price memes and immature jokes, as long as the Ethereum developer community is making progress and developing innovative applications. It is mean ethereum is more than talking about the price but also it is new innovations in technology of the blockchain. That's great

The mainstream digital currencies talk about more than just the price issue, they must be technically updated, otherwise the top 10 are not stable

The price of eth will continue to rise in 2018, and 1000 dollars should come soon. Now the private placement of ICO is becoming more and more popular, so the demand for one of its main uses is strong again. The position of the market value NO2 should come back soon!

Any ideas what might happen to the popularity and price of Ethereum once it switches to full PoS? Have there been other coins of reasonable significance that switched from PoW to PoS and what was the effect?

That comparison won't be worth much. The PoS implementation for Ethereum looks quite different from other PoS implementations. It's much more sophisticated than simple "stake and gain interest" PoS.

This is a young coin, but has been innovative, if the POS mechanism can proceed smoothly, is it conducive to people's long-term ownership? Because it will form a reward

After the ETH changes POS, the ETH (POW) becomes the waste chain. No way out is equal to no means of trading and transfer. There will be only two chains of ETC and ETH (POS).

Wow, is this a tweet from him or posted somewhere? I can't imagine what will happen if he leaves the project, for sure nothing good (just see what happened when Charlie Lee dumped his coins). I think if this is real, Vitalik is just taking the piss for some reason.

Yes digital currencies are not about the price especially for ethereum and more than it, ethereum start to fix the problem of scaling on digital currencies here is the good news and good work from the developer team of ethereum. Ethereum Foundation Announces Subsidised Scaling Research Programs https://t.co/SCgBZsAIkQ i hope it helps for us as community of digital coins and gives the good understanding about the problem on digital coins especially on scaling problem. Cheers

Technology must have breakthrough coins to rank in the top 10. In other words, if the waterfall is coming, only the real block chain technology coins can remain invincible.

ETH price crossed $1,000 Today, marking yet another historic milestone for the third-largest cryptocurrency.
Although ETH has yet to reach $1,000 on most Western exchanges..
Earlier this week, ripple became the first altcoin to achieve a $100 billion market cap, and ETH now appears poised to add its name to this exclusive list.
ETH has been on an extended rally since the beginning of December, when it was priced at $428.
ETH now has a market cap of $98.1 billion, placing it within reach of becoming the third cryptocurrency to achieve a $100 billion market cap.

Ethereum began to rise, and I guess it was the cause of the recent fire of ICO, and try to reclaim second of the throne. But recently ETH's network has become a dog

And Ethereum just hit the 100 billion market cap. Just like you said, Ethereum makes 1 milestone folloed by another - in a healthy way, not like many of the other insane gaining altcoins atm around there.
Only thing which can really challenge is Cardano. I know, thats a long way to go, but ADA can make it.

Whats your guys ETH price prediction for quarter 1 2018?

[Xandan]

Ethereum is already over $1000 successfully at the start of this year. I will say we should expect few times from here in five figures to be held and all this gain is sustainable. This is just new beginning which is real one like the title explains itself. It is amazing start for new year.
