it's not too late to buy, please buy ETH as best you can and save it in your wallet,
later when hardfork is close, there will be a lot of information born.

So, you want to buy ETH now to get the "fork" coin? If yes, I don't think the next fork will create new coin like what btc does, or at least that what i read. There is no block number about when it will happen, only date which is on 16 January 2019. From that, i don't think there will be fork coin.
Even if there will be new tokens or coin when for happen, i think you probably will receive it directly to your wallet or there will be news about it.

edit:

No, the fork will effectively create a new coin. Date of a fork is always derived from a block number and estimated block velocity, Constantinople is about to happen at block 7,080,000.

Ah, okay. Looks like the news that i read is not contain that thing.

I have the same concern too. I wanna get some of these tokens. My situation is that my ETH are on the MEW, is there anything I'd have to do to actually receive some of these tokens or I get automatically sent to my account  as I have Ether on it?

A lot of forks already, will it even  have a value?

[passeroutpass]

in this update, ETH holders will not receive any additional coins. so buying for some kind of free distribution it is very bad idea

not too late because hardfork is expected to occur in January. my advice is better buy now, hold it because now the price is quite low. if the attention is coming soon the price of ethereum will go up, so if you don't buy now you will regret it

If you go to etherscan, this information is the first thing you will see. Thats why nobody is responding in the first instance.

Dude, please, be more constructive when you post and read the topic carefully.

@OP, I never knew that there will be an upcoming fork. This might be the reason why ETH maintained its value at $100-150, who knows, it might go up to $200 again.

I will reiterate what damberg have said. According to coindesk;

"the developers assembled agreed on block 7,080,000 on the ethereum blockchain as an activation point at which users would be able to elect to upgrade to the new code. Put simply, should users choose to accept the change by upgrading their software, the update would go live when the block is mined.

According to estimates by release manager for the Parity Ethereum client, Afri Schoedon, this means Constantinople is expected to go live between January 14 and 18."

There is no split, it's just an upgrade. The ETH "proof-of-stake" might be near.

[10BTCaDay]

7080000 is the number of the block on which the update will occur. the update will be approximately January 16-19, 2019.

[Saugani]

The hardfork at block 7080000 - current block = ..... x 14.5 seconds/block miner (+-) =.... : 86400second/24hour = xxxx day, look like on etherscan last blocks.

Note: I saw hardfork will not to produce any new coin, like old ethereum classic ETC. so an original preparing of ethereum 2.0 and under-main PoS also an including scalability (TPS/network/etc) other things the technicals

Meeting-Agenda Dev, prepare before HF Friday 04th January https://github.com/ethereum/pm/issues/66/

hardfork's plan will start in mid January and at this time the price isn't too high, so there's still time to start buying if you want to get a good moment to be able to sell it at a high price

From what I know, Ethereum upgrade Constantinopole won't produce a new coin. According to the developer, the upgrade is expected to make ethereum blockchain faster and efficient.

as far as I know ethereum will hardfork on Block 7,080,00.
i think It's never too late, even when ethereum prices are expensive then you can still get a chance to profit from it because there are no limits to the price of coins, including ethereum.
especially when the price is still cheap as it is now, then your chances of making a profit from it are still very high

It is never too late to buy Ethereum, especially now when the price is so low. Hard fork will happen around January 19, according to experts and I think until that time the price of Ethereum will continue to grow. Today we are already seeing an increase from the minimum values of almost 70%

[Furious 7]

a few months ago the price of ethereum plunged deeply, I realized that too much nonsense here was mainly about ico and erc20 tokens. Communities don't need garbage tokens and they throw them away. this is bad trust and difficult to return. Hardfork is a good step to improve this situation, I hope eth will come back.

I see that many here are confused with holding a rigid fork and implementing improvements in ethereum. The hard fork with the advent of the bithereum coin was planned for December 28 as a result of the merger of bitcoin and ethereum. And the introduction of various improvements in ethereum is scheduled for about January 16. I think that both events will raise the popularity and price of ethereum. I see that already now ethereum continues to rise slightly in price at the time when Bitcoin and other types of cryptocurrency are falling.

Most of the crypto hunters are concentrate in Ethereum platform, So hardfork hungriness is increase in today. I think Ethereum will going to moon in next month and all are waiting for the hardfork. I support Bitcoin cash because this hardfork was drastic change in Bitcoin cash value so many traders are earn quick profit in this platform.

It is not set yet. And I think it is not about block. It is about timing. And team still didn't publish when it will be forked. You can follow this forum or Ethereum community for fork news.
