ETH after "Constantinople"

[victoria444]

Minus security issue which might be faced.  think after this upgrade, eth competitors will have a mountain to climb, alts like ledu based on eth will see growth after this.

It's delayed mate.

I'm not sure what will be the effect of it if it has been launched soon. But everyone has the same opinion that it will trigger the 'price' up.

Oh, I thought it was done. I'm just too busy on my work doesn't have much time to read. Anyway, we will know what will happen once it is launched and I hope so that it will turn things up and will trigger something big.

Yes, we will know it once it's going to continue again.

Good thing that they've found some security issues before the upgrade commence. Now the devs are into discussions to change the term 'hard fork' into  'upgrade'.

what you think about constantinople fork? its coming in 1 day.

here is 2 fact :

1 - new ETH will 2 in per block, this is good. (circulation suply will grow less then now)
2 - (PoS)  algorithm.  i think SEC and PoS arenot friends

your predict about 2019 and ETHEREUM

i just hope the hard-fork times will be the hard-fork times successfully. Because our markets have suffered a lot from the economic downturn, traders will not be able to cope with the pressure of ETH failure. Its price will drop below $ 50 and many investors will continue to give up. I just hope the market will get miracles from the whales.

Constantinople update should have a positive impact on the price of Ethereum, but one should not expect that its price will start to grow immediately after the update. Reducing the reward for the block in the long term will also improve the situation by reducing the number of newly created coins.

Each hard-fork is a great progression. ETH will certainly not have a great technology like Constantinople offers, but it's still in third place and its price won't change too much. BCH has also argued that it would be easy to die when Bitcoin SV was born but it still proved its strength. ETH is the same and we shouldn't be too worried.

I think since this would decrease the rewards for miners, it is more prone to 51% attack just like what Ethereum Classic experienced recently?
This is just a speculation on "what if's"

Anyways, since the fork is coming up (but a little bit delayed), I think this could help increase the demand for ETH to receive the forked coin.

I don't think there will be a separate coin from the unforked chain, at least nothing worthwhile. As far as I'm aware Constantinople is a non-contentious upgrade, so everyone will follow the new chain. There will always be someone who claims to have a viable new coin following any fork, but I can't see any new variant being sustainable.

Without a doubt, the update Constantinople is the next step to the further development of Ethereum. If this update is successful, the price of Ethereum will definitely grow and it will strengthen its position in the crypto world. Especially since Constantinople is only an intermediate update on the way to the main Serenity update.

No more fork coin and any fork coins that declare if that was a part from ethereum constantinople just another shitty scam coin. Look at ETCV and ETN. both are completely scam forks which claimed to be a part ot it.
This is about the protocol update.

Going by multiple news channels, this "Constantinople"  fork/upgrade has been postponed to next week due to a security hole discovery. That is the reason for today's ETH selloff. Hope to see it go smooth next week.

I never heard anymore after the recent news about of postponement, I was excited before but now nothing anymore, but I still have the faith that after the upgrade it could be the reason to soar its price value.

Not excited anymore cause it won't give a huge effect on the market, it is just an upgrade to help out from bugs and security reasons. We've undergo that system upgrade before and it won't make help to increase the market but instead, it bring down the price cause some people worried about the after the upgrades.
Yes, it is postpone and I don't hear any pronouncement about new schedule. It might be launch or not.

Ethereum devs are taking a lot of precaution to make this Constantinople hard-fork successful last week they delayed their hard-fork due to security issues. I have not seen issues of SEC with any POS algorithm coin except privacy coins. IMO after the hard-fork price will grow gradually & it will also depend on the users experience/reviews ho faces scalability.

Of course it does have a huge impact on the price of eth . basically the value can pumped up because people will tend to buy more eth because they wanna get more forked coins  . the same happend to btc forks  were both btc and bch got an instant increase   .

Postponed or not , the value of cryptos including eth can still recover in the future  because other good events did not happened yet  .

This trend may have ended and people are no longer interested in new coins at this time because they are suffering huge losses in their assets. I believe that from here until February, ETH will increase very high but then everything will return to the ground because ETH will not have much value anymore.

Recently, the developers stated that they found some kind of bug in the code that does not allow them to do the fork in the near future, so we should not expect that the fork will take place as it was previously planned - January 17th. Now it will be transferred for an indefinite time until they eliminate this bug.

Correct, I thought it was just a one day delayed, as initially reported. But its worst than expected, so we really need to wait and see how this whole fork will affect the miners and investors as well.

https://blockmanity.com/news/ethereum-developers-decide-to-activate-constantinople-hard-fork-on-february-27th-progpow-could-get-delayed/

So the new date is February 27, Its interesting to note that Feb 27 is the date wherein SEC will have to decide for the last time if Bitcoin ETF proposal by Van Eck/Solid X should be a go or no go.

Take note as well that the miners will received 2 ETH every time they find a new block as compare to 3 ETH prior to the fork, reducing the supply that might affect the price positively.

[Colan Zolo]

Delays occur again for various reasons, hardfork ETH canteen in February is still waiting again.
Surely with a better and more useful renewal, the positive impact will be seen.

[Sephire]

This fork is more of a feature upgrade and there are going to be no new free coins so should not cause any big pump. However, the ETF approval by Feb 27 deadline by SEC should give a big boost to crypto market.

[Buntel168]

Just look at whether the ETH price will rise after the Fork. Hopefully this fork will have an impact on Ethereum like what happened to Bitcoin during fork.

[gudjhonson]

Yes, I also hope that this year Ethereum will experience hard fork for safer features and have a positive impact on increasing the price of coins not for the gratified fork that has been talked about by many people.

[herfianto]

I think everyone hopes the current fork can bring Ethereum back on track and the price goes up again.

[thaliaand]

It is indeed not a good news for miners when the block reward decreased from 3 eth to 2 eth. But sometime, an option must be taken to solve other problems. The transition from Pow to PoS algorithm will might bring SEC attention. Whether it will violate the securities law or not, I have not hear any news about it yet.
But I think this upgrade/fork will bring more features, so hopefully will bring good atmosphere as well.
