[ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning

[bribed]

what a surprise, eth just reached $1,146.19 USD  on coinmarketcap !! Finally!!! The only crypto to kept its ascending during the last 24 h

Yeah thats well deserved after Ethereum was creeping up so slow while other coins like Dash got valued this high. I do believe that Ethereum should be valued much higher, and am highly confident that we will see a lot of growth in the coming months. Go Ethereum!

World's first Jackpot Reward system for just for our miners!

• Its simple and unique. We are making mining more interesting for you! Exclusive to MaxHash and built in-house by pool devs.
• Loyal miners on the pool will have a chance every week to collect the Jackpot. This Jackpot consists of ALL proceeds collected from the pool VARFEE over a 7 day period.
• Everyday at 23:00 (UTC) the pool will select a random miner that meets the minimum mining time requirement for that day*
• This lucky miner is then displayed on the shortlist of finalists and given a ticket number.
• Every Sunday at 23:00 (UTC) the pool will check for the block height number of the last matured block found by the pool before this time. The last number of this block will be the winning ticket!
• Example - LAST MATURE BLOCK FOUND #123,456 - Ticket Number #6 wins
• A loyal miner with this winning ticket number collects the entire jackpot!
• Numbers 1-7 are eligible to win the Jackpot. If the last number of the block is 8,9,0 then the jackpot will simply roll over to the next week and finalists will be reset.
• This system is exclusive to MaxHash mining pools as it has been built in-house by the pool devs.

Full details as well as the terms & conditions of the Jackpot reward system can be found HERE

If you have questions or queries regarding the pool, getting connected or about our Jackpot system then feel free to get in touch.

We are available through PM here, email (see website) and in our DISCORD server.

I sold out my ETH on $50, what the f..

 

A lot of people got out way before it surged.

[NateScofield]

What a milestone! Ethereum is one of the safest investments today. Ethereum (ETH) and eBoost (EBST) to the moooooooooon! All on board!  :

[majestymage]

what a surprise, eth just reached $1,146.19 USD  on coinmarketcap !! Finally!!! The only crypto to kept its ascending during the last 24 h

this is because eth is maybe the first and only strong and not extremely overpriced crypto-asset out there.

Clogging is not getting well but it is not getting worse at least.

It is around 20.000 - 30.000 pending transactions for some time. https://etherscan.io/chart/pendingtx

Damn because of so many pending transactions average gas price for a transaction to go through is now 50 GWEI that sucks.

Yes, not happy paying higher fees as well or transaction delays. The good thing is eth is not your average coin and has an awesome team that will continue to improve their technology. Just a matter of time.

Hmm... Maybe it's good that transactions seems to be taking too long and txn fees are getting higher just means a lot of people have been using it?  nanopool payout has been taking too long.

Another problem,i have my ethereum wallet updated and guess what,made a transaction more than 10 hours ago and on etherscan shows my balances but in my ethereum wallet nothing ..

[MofoMF]

Eth will rise soon. Be patient. $1,200 is always a powerful drag. Once it finally breaks out, there will be a surge, he will make bitcoin the most valuable currency to invest in, and long-term holders of the ETH believe that the high returns have been achieved!

I have to stay 5 days to update my eth wallet for 50k blocks .. and ethereum is 1k$ now .. lol,what a fking joke

Eth could be 100000$ dont give a fuck,matters what it offers,for now is too expensive to make transactions GWEi/GAS ,takes too long,its broken

When you look at the price of BTC transactions I wouldn't say that ETH transactions are expensive (min. BTC transaction is about $50 and ETH transaction is $0.5-$2). Bigger problem is that they take forever to go trough and that's bigger problem than expensive gas.

All the coins are too expensive now.
In 2017 lots of stupid people entered on crypto world and they don`t think ,till then on a pump a whale had winning of 10-20% and now,because of the noobs they make more than 400-500% at a single pump,1000-2000 people are glad about 200-300$ winnings but no one realise about the rich whales that becomes even richer
More than 90% of the coins should be deleted,at evey project there are at least 5-6 coins with the same ideea ..
I liked this crypto world because of the mining and privacy.
A virtual world for people that don`t care so much about money,a virtual world that brought people together to share ideeas and work to evolve ,to really change something.
I too want to make money,but i don`t want to make it in a day and ruin a project in the process.
Lot`s of the coins from top 50 don`t deserve to be there and because of that will change the credibility about this world that soon will crash.
Ethereum changed the perspective about crypto world,but in that change attracted too many stupid people...
10% of the population becamed brokers!
sorry for my poor english...

I think $1000 will be before christmas ( maybe today or tomorrow)

I wish you had been right and to be honest I thought the exact same thing But it seems we have to be a little bit more patient to see ETH break $1,000. I have a feeling that we might see a little bear market for a while. Let's hope I am wrong this time

Well It didn't break the $1000 valuation but it came close before the pull back.  2018 maybe a good year for eth.  Maybe more companies will adopt eth by means of smart contracts, and who knows it may reach $2000 conservatively

Now we are finally there and broke the $1,000 mark I am extremely excited about 2018, hard to guess where we will end up by the end of the year.

Ethereum is doing really great. At this time Ethereum is a 2nd most popular cryptocurrency on the planet overtaking Ripple after its fall recently, and it’s also a fast growing cryptocurrency, Now Ethereum (ETH) coinmarket cap is more than one hundred ten Billion Dollars and Price is $1,130 USD.

These are predictions for Ethereum in upcoming years which I saw somewhere and completely agree upon:



Think I am crazy? Wait and Watch.

[dr.cheema]

Ethereum - higher highs and higher lows.
even when Bitcoin is in the $14,500 - $15,500 Range.  Pretty Good!

It is really amazing to see Ethereum is the only green among top 10 cryptocurrencies.
Will this trend continue to be?

[oleksii777]

Tell me, will there be a fork in the near future? To get coins for fork it is enough to keep ethers in your purse MyEtherWallet?

[slackovic]

Some say that there should be an Ethereum fork on Jan-19 and it will be called EthereumZero. This is the Twitter post with the announcement: https://twitter.com/EtherZero_org/status/945547117342289927. But now I read something that it was canceled, and then that it wasn't... Who knows...

ETH prices rose 4.95% in the last 24 hours, bringing the Ethereum to USD exchange rate to $1,213.84. Other cryptos, from Bitcoin to TRON, fell during the same time period. Perhaps this is due to investors are blaming China’s imminent ban on Bitcoin mining as the source of pessimism.If it is true, Ethereum could benefit enormously from Bitcoin’s woes. It is not as heavily exposed to a Chinese mining ban, plus it is not coming off an overextended rally like Bitcoin. As a result, it could attract a lot of the capital bleeding out of BTC.

even at the price eth is now it's far more expensive than bitcoin! e.g. shapeshifter transaction eth costs 0.008, bitcoin is 15 x higher and it costs 0.002, take eth up by even 10 times to equalise price & an eth transaction through shapeshifte becomes 0.08, 4 times more expensive than btc, absolutely shocking! defiantly not worth it.

I think that people are currently selling whatever they have, that's why prices fall. Why? Because now everyone talks about the bubble and every other one gives examples of this DOGE (even citing the founder) which skyrocketed with huge market cap based on.... nothing. It was supposed to be a meme coin. So now everyone is afraid of the bubble and sells like crazy.

[cryptoboba]

Can anyone recommend a guide on how to most efficiently mine Etherium? The electricity is cheap in my country so that is not a problem, I am just confused about hardware I need. I have $2000-$3000 to invest.

Yes. Is it me and the rest ETH transactions getting more expensive and much slower, pending all the time. They are working on updates. Hope they can get them implemented asap so they can keep up with newer generations. BTW! Nice to look Ethereum reclaims its number two position, behind Bitcoin. Can't wait to see Ethereum explode in these next few months.
