Ethereum hard fork, bitcoin rumors, future outcome?

[Indiladhar]

We’ve read news about Russia investing in bitcoin, as well as bitcoin accounts becoming active, and word of whales returning. Chinese New Year also approaches. We’ve also expected ethereum price to spike leading up to split. However, prices remain low. What’s the likelihood that ethereum will rise following the hardfork? Will the trend continue or will this rise be temporary? I have a feeling that we’ll see another drop, and not see a rise until 2nd quarter at the earliest. However, if there is a chance for an ethereum growth, today might be the last day to purchase.

We’ve read news about Russia investing in bitcoin

It's not an actual news, it's an hearsay, a rumor.

I also have that feeling that a drop would come, usually when Chinese New year comes the market goes on low. But I don't know and I'm not sure on what will happen for this year. The hasn't been so good for 2018 and this year is just starting, give it space for your expectations.

About rusia investing in the bitcoin seems only a rumour. I guess if OP is not understand and it looks like the correct rumour is about rusia was legalizing the bitcoin mining activity.
Don't expect a lot from chinese new year and that's only a rumour.

The way I see it, we are still in "accumulation period". Bull run as many are saying won't be coming anytime soon.

I do not expect an immediate price growth after the hardfork. It will probably take an ethereum 1x or ethereum 2.0 launch to really push its price.

Yes it is logical the price to spike before the split, not after. The chances are now that ETH will remain low. Unless bitcoin with some breaking news pulls everything up. With regards to other nations like Russia investing in bitcoin, it would be wise on their part if they invest, but they don't seem to get it. The nation that gets it, and has some money to invest, will be a huge winner one day when bitcoin starts to rule over all the other currencies, including fiat, crypto, bonds, and others.

I am not sure of the rumors you are telling, I believe more that the increase in altcoin ethereum was triggered by the increase in bitcoin or the demand for ethereum coins is increasing. especially if there is positive news, of course this will increase the price back in the market.

[Justindud]

In my opinion, the year 2018 was a very interesting year for the cryptocurrency, the rise of stablecoin's and a lot of great achievements has been witnessed although none of them really created any impact on the market! the prices of cryptocurrency are in freefall! I don't think these rumors of forks will create any good.

It is difficult to raise prices in this market because we are facing many problems in society and the trade war is greatly affecting our investment. I think we should wait until the market actually recovers to consider investing in ETH because ETH is not a good choice at this time.

[Indiladhar]

We are all waiting for the growth to come, not just for ethereum but the market as a whole. Trying to purchase at a low will be beneficial but nobody knows when we hit bottom and when market improves. I missed the $81 purchase, and am unsure whether I should purchase at current price or if prices will drop further.

[vova.andreyan.94]

I am almost sure that we will not see the result right away, most likely after a while, but not the fact that this will be a big increase!

[sherenikaw]

During recent weeks, there are news about the forks of Etherem, but they are considered as the scams. I'm also confused about this thing.
Then, the bitcoin rumor also really influences how the progress of the market. However, the good and bad news will always appear. In fact, today, the market is still decreasing and we cannot make the big thing.

[danherbias07]

Ethereum price pump just because of fork nothing more.
It could be temporary.
Think about it. Buyers of ETH just want that new token for them to sell it. BCH is already a good example of it.

I have talked to friends and they are really hoarding more ETH as much as they could just for it and then a sudden sell could also happen.
Profit from both new token and the pump. Newbies will be a victim again if they dont know about this.

[D3m1r4wanti]

no future results can predict for sure, even if ethereum has done hardfork it is no guarantee that ethereum and other crypto currencies will improve in the future.

[pidie]

My opinion decreased, with the enactment of Ethereum hard fork, it does not guarantee that ETH prices will go up again like last year. if you look at current ETH price movements, the ETH price will actually decline again.

[Indiladhar]

I don’t mind the decline, eth is a promising project with a bright future and am happy to hold long term. A purchase at current price will still profit in 5 years time. But if prices are dropping further, it’s better to wait for a lower price.

[starplaks]

Rumors about the fact that in Russia they invest in Bitcoin are wrong, but the fact that Ethereum will start growing after the upgrade is quite real!

[Bomber007]

Ethereum actually rope exponentially in the past but it couldn't maintain the momentum for long and dipped again, but I am optimistic that before the fork, we would see an improvement.

[raden1922]

As many people have said here, that this is only inaccurate news and may be said to be a mere rumor. Well, indeed Hardfork does not seem to affect ethereum prices to date, because in my opinion there are no signs of price increases at all. And I will wait for the news circulating on the internet.
good idea.

[Correlll]

These are the perfect signs of the upcoming bullish trend! We have to wait until Russia will announce it officially and Ethereum will update its blockchain. There are so much outstanding updates that are going to be released soon!

[Moeda]

I am not sure that the price of Ethereum after the hard fork will increase. Even more decline from current prices. Hardfork is the worst way to increase the price of Ethereum.
