[ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning

[mars-token]

wating for pos update.

[budlo]

Ethereum network fees have dropped dramatically. After cosmically large commissions, just a month ago, it looks fantastic. Hopefully miners won't be hit hard as the number of transactions should increase.

[fat buddah]

I could not imagine how could it change my life if I read it in 2014

[Daltonik]

The average transaction fee on the Ethereum network has fallen to $4.6 , and in the past two weeks, the average commission on the network has fallen more than five times. https://blockchair.com/ethereum/charts/average-transaction-fee-usd?interval=1m

Yes, you are right. To tell you the truth, I didn't even expect to see such low fees again. It means that Ethereum chain became more interest for developers, and we will see more new projects with tokens based on ERC-20.

But now I'm wondering if we will see ETH price above 3k in near future.

After a successful hard fork, the price will be even higher

please fix chain ids

[In the silence]

If 2.0 really postponed, when will we can see ETH going $6,000?
The upgrades are good, this will push the prices higher and the gas is soooo optimized now.

I found a new interesting dashboard
https://pro.nansen.ai/polygon/eth-vs-polygon
https://pro.nansen.ai/polygon

Polygon is growing very quickly, and the number of active addresses there will soon be much more than in Ethereum.
The whole paradox is that when the polygon  was actively working, the commissions on the main network became very cheap.

Yes, of course, this is very good for the development of the network and the defi sector. But the price, unfortunately, depends not only on this. The global trend is now downtrend, so it will not be an easy path to new peaks.

I would say more. Todays situation doesn't look good for ETH. Price decreased almost to 2k for 1 ETH. If this falling continues, I'm sure, 3k usd for 1 ETh we will not see soon.

Interesting thoughts from Charles Hoskinson

"Bitcoin is ‘own worst enemy' and will lose to Ethereum: Charles Hoskinson
Bitcoin is too slow when compared to Ethereum and other proof-of-stake networks, argued Cardano founder, Charles Hoskinson."

A few hours left before the start of the London testnet on the Ropsten network.
What are your thoughts on this? Will everything go well and will London be activated on the mainnet at the end of July?
Or don't you want that?
And will you write dirty tricks about Ethereum?

come on guys....!!! we know"Ropsten ETH is used for testing purposes". When developers are building dApps, or experimenting on the network, to avoid losing money by paying real ETH for transaction fees and implementing smart contracts, it is better to use Ropsten Network for a secure and london better system. (Mainnet) in July.

does not show the number of burned coins, so you need to use another site
The site does not always open, so I will make screenshots

http://watchtheburn.com


"You've just experienced
1.7574 ETH  being burned by observing 43 blocks that contain 1707 transactions with 89.375 ETH  rewards!"

[Termie]

why doesn´t the "Total Fees Burned"-amount rise there?
Always frozen at "88,571.275030" here
[Edit] ok counts up now
