Yes and the issuance reduction was only on the testnet fork, which failed and has bugs that need to be worked out.

So basically they need to fix all these bugs. And if all is well set a date for the mainnet fork, which is most likely going to be a few more months away.

Probably won't happen at DEVCON like it was originally planned. They need to make sure there is not going to be any transition problems not to cause a network stall of the network, which would be disastrous for the crypto community.

Someone should put Voting on a Blockchain, and instead of using the Coins as Voting Tokens, make it where if someone can prove they Voted they get a 1 Vote Coin or whatever. Then it would work better. Voting would be secondary like a dApp on the Blockchain.

State by State, Party by Party, etc, a new regular use for Blockchain everyone can earn money Voting

Some news about Constantinople upgrade:

˝Giveth’s Griff Green told CoinDesk that he expects the Constantinople release to occur in either January or February next year.˝

good to know

the 3 eth block reward per block is still too low, what can we miners expect with a 2 eth miner reward per block at this price?

eth has to raise x3 minimum before the Constantinopole implementaion

However we need BTC first to go back to $17K before we even think of ETH at $17K. I never really took these log charts too seriously, eventually there needs to be a top somewhere.

According to the practice of last years, if BTC price will start to grow, BTC dominance index will grow too. It means that alts will go down at the same time, ETH is not an exception. Will we see a cheaper ETH then?

I don't think ETH will lose big value in future as its already touched the bottom if we compare the current movement with last month performance. As I think it's back on the solid track and with the help of some good news we will see this on big floor in coming days.

agree! Ethereum will not go back to cheap price, 2018 is going to end and i think bull run on the way.
I hope Ethereum will reach the ATH price with Bitcoin. I don't think so we will see Ethereum cheaper again.

Great time for us if that will happen.
We dropped this low and I guess it's gonna be hard for if we will sell, we just continue to convince ourselves that the price will again rise
so we will remain holding. When timing is good in the market, we can surely witness another massive run.

In dollars, definitely not in btc, it is quite likely.
I think it’s too early to go into the negative while there is a chance and the option of switching to POS a chance for growth remains. Hope that project fees will grow anymore. The market finally fell and the projects almost do not gain air, which means it is no longer needed as it was before.

major fan!

There will be a lot of updates and it needs a lot of time. POS will actually give somethin' different to the ethereum platform. remember the team has discussed about the possibility for small holders of ethereum can staking their shares to the network and earn some pennies from there. It needs a lot of time to go.

Living up to its new year’s resolution to support promising projects that were developed on their blockchain technology, the Ethereum Foundation announced that it has completed grants of its fourth leg of its Grants programme Wave IV, by providing nearly $3 million to over 20 projects. We can read more about this good information on here https://btcmanager.com/ethereum-foundation-grants-program/ it will gives us good knowledge about the ethereum development in my personal opinions.

Sony has developed a rights management system for digital content. Despite they didn't specify what kind of blockchain protocol the platform is based on, it probably includes Ethereum-based solutions.

There is big chance to see significant rise in coming in the presence of big news while it is on bottom and it has been tested so many time but we have strong support on current level. I think hodl will be wise decision instead of being panic.

[oleksii777]

Good day. I support you that panic is not needed here. But many people do not withstand such pressure and sell their coins. I wish you all a great success.

Hey man, I see you really positive in RVN thread,a coin that I also like very much.

I just don't understand why you need to go in random threads where you dislike a coin and troll people. We are not on a forum in 2011...trolls like you shouldn't exists in 2018. Maybe you should focus on changing your attitude and respect other people.

I've seen people here at 'hold' mode when the price was $1,400. How stupid can one be?

Eth is still overvalued. What does it do? Serves as fuel for token transactions. Worth $21Billion total? Get real.

And btw Eth does have an infinite supply, I would be very careful with this coin.

[alevlaslo]

it costs very little, it should cost as bitcoin, because the reputation is the same

Super short-sighted argument. Let's not even mention the largest development community...most daaps/contracts deployed on chain...exceptional tech stack with a plethora of client implementations.

But let's keep arguing from the point of a market cap. That's effective.
