[ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning

If the ICO bans are lifted by the end of this year that could really help ETH achieve the number one spot.

ICO ban is good for ETHf. Nobody would buy ETHf to get into an ICO. Only people that already have ETHf would. Later those ETHf are sold to pay for cars, salaries and rent offices. This is why from ETH investment perspective buying ETHc is much better than buying ETHf.

ETH has been weakly exploded recently, and there's no big improvement in demand. It's really going to be surpassed by EOS.

ETH is still strong as compare with EOS I didn't any kind of competition yet but after a year the situation could be changed. Both have some concept and dependent on the success of ICOs otherwise they have no use case in real life.

There's this special feeling from reading the original Ethereum announcement and the foremost comments with some outrightly discarding the idea while others asked questions to clarify. That has thought me to not give up on my dreams and aspirations. Thank you Vitalik.

Given the market movements of the last 18+ months...do you really believe that??

We may see Ethereum getting top position on marketcap valuation by the end of this year. Ethereum has power and hype good one to achieve all this easily.

Hope your words will come true. Totally agree with you. Wishing you good luck

Ethereum has a very powerful potential for its development.
And a team of professionals who have many ideas and their solutions and already have a high reputation.
It is only necessary that the circumstances develop successfully, so that the potential of Ethereum can be fully revealed.

We have seen many people were talking about about that also it looks like ethereum will try to consider hybrid program

Why the last 18+ months? Why not the last 6+ months? Or the last 3+ months...

Because larger data sets tend offer more insight.

Ethereum and bitcoin are weak together, without message surface, the empty head is the trend, copy the bottom please be careful.

[kobo_eth]

We are just closing the lowest ETH/USD positions since December 2017... So sad, around 470-480 USD now

[zidane]

I hope it will stay higher than 100USD

With Ice age that already released through first difficulty increase and that means hybrid becomes a real thing in the future. Consider POS casper is not fully mean ethereum will move into the POS system. It looks like ethereum still needed miners to keep the decentralization.

Correct. It's already been confirmed that before we see full PoS, there will be a hybrid PoW/PoS consensus model. From the interviews I've listened to on the subject, it sounds like it will work a lot like Decred's PoW/PoS system (though, without the voting capabilities).

yes i think so
but i never believing that eth will come back at current price again
474$ right now the price
such cheap price and analyzing eth chart of past two months it seems eth will touch 400$
for the current developments eth price is not effecting but going down more day by day

[mandibleclaw]

But it's not only ethereum, everything is in bear mode and bitcoin reagained some dominance (right now at 44%). I don't know when we are going to go bull again, but I hope it's not that far

[clixcoin]

I hope it will stay higher than 100USD

I hope so it will stay above $100 but nobody knows what is happening into crypto markets right now because all TA getting failed and no prediction is going into right direction. There is still hope for good future I think soon it will back into bull run.

Why? Where connect? I don't get it. I think ICO ban do not affect to ETH

I think so too. I think that the market will turn around soon. Now they are just trying to get rid of stubborn ones from the market. The easiest way is for those who bought eth for $ 10-50.

I wonder what would happen to Ethereum's price if Bitcoin will climb up to 70% dominance as it was a few months ago...

Hello Ethereum community. Is the platform still scheduled to make the switch to Casper this year? If not this year, then when? I reckon it would be in the interest of Vitalik for Ethereum to stay as a proof of work coin or not, depending on what his stance on ASICs is.

Bitmain is coming for Ethereum.



Susquehanna reduced its rating to negative from neutral and lowered its price target for AMD shares, citing impending competition from cryptocurrency mining company Bitmain.

"During our travels through Asia last week, we confirmed that Bitmain has already developed an ASIC [application-specific integrated circuit] for mining Ethereum, and is readying the supply chain for shipments in 2Q18," analyst Christopher Rolland wrote in a note to clients Monday. "While Bitmain is likely to be the largest ASIC vendor (currently 70-80% of Bitcoin mining ASICs) and the first to market with this product, we have learned of at least three other companies working on Ethereum ASICs, all at various stages of development."
