Can someone confirm that deposit/withdrawal of Ethereum is still suspended (or is already available) on the exchanges? So why would they decide to suspend all transactions of ethereum?

Is deposit and withdrawal still suspended? Probably trying to be extra careful. The exchange ower doesn't want to take even small risk with people funds. I guess he is being responsible. That is a reasonable thing to do in my opinion. Afterall it's a one day event.

I got an email from the exchange I use stating the Istanbul hard fork is to occur at block 9069000 at approximately 15:44:36 PST on December 7. It happened already but they have suspended all deposits and withdrawals from happening until further notice. It is not a contentious fork and so does not result in any new coins from it happening. So why would they decide to suspend all transactions of ethereum?
Yes, almost all exchanges warned about update. I cannot explain since I am not aware of technical issues, but essentially the deposit/withdrawal is frozen during this time period. The fork took place with success. The year 2020 will be the year of ethereum.
I did not find any information about the outcome, if you know something about it, you can share it with us.

You can still trade Ethereum on Binance ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) everything is done on huobi side, you can withdraw and deposit it again normally. I do not know about other exchanges. about trading activity, this upgrade has nothing to do with it, you still can trade it even when the upgrade happens(every exchange is allowing you to make a trade, they are only suspending the withdrawal and deposit).

I guess this is a good deal because we will see improvements but it is also risky because it is a hard fork that we don't know if works or not. Maybe it would be full of bugs and would be horrible and there would be double spending and all sorts of things, or maybe it would be the amazing thing that we have been waiting for. I still can't believe one day ethereum could be a staking coin, think about it, there was a company that got 1 billion dollars in funding for their own token project, if they got that much ethereum when it was staking, even if it is just 1% per year (will probably be bigger) that would be 10 million dollars per year just for keeping it there, how many companies in crypto world actually has bigger than 10 million dollars a year expense anyway? Staking will change ICO world.

yeah I think so 2020 it might be possible for ethereum moment to add investment now is very appropriate ,I also had time to think why they are suspending all ethereum transactions possibly for the 2020 plan later During their last meeting for eth devs they announced a delay of proof of stake to two years from now. So don't expect the year of ethereum to be fully conceived until 2021 at the very latest.

I feel they suspended withdrawal and deposit as a strategy to avoid any complaints should the fork not take effect as it was supposed to despite the fact the hard fork wasn't creating any new fork tokens from Eth blockchain but measures are sill necessary for the exchange.

This is an upgrade for ethereum network, and change consensus algorithm, so I think they suspended deposit and withdrawn just to make sure nothing is wrong with the ethereum transaction before the upgrade is complete and the system works stably.

as far as I know at this time ethereum has experienced a lot of hardfork and it seems that it cannot have a good impact on ethereum price movements at the exchange place, should if the hardfork is good then the ethereum price at the exchange place can go up.

The major transition will be when ethereum 2.0 is implemented. https://www.coindesk.com/ethereums-istanbul-hard-fork-is-now-livethen proof of stake will happen.

it’s very difficult to say why they stopped all transactions, but I think we have nothing to worry about. not one exchange but even several did so, and I think that tomorrow all issues will be resolved. the most important thing is that ISTANBUL to be successfully implemented. if the update will be unsuccessful, we will again see the drop in ETH prices

I think they suspended activities of etheruem because of any possible error or complication that may result to withdrawal and deposit. And I hope this fork in the network will improve the ethereum scalability, so I can seamless trade on Folkdelta and spend less on transaction fee.

that is what they hope to achieve. they are doing gradual forking, probably because they would have to add the untraceable option for ETH just like the DASH features and then the sharding too. if it can be scaled DEX will also be excited to see how much transaction per seconds. no dates yet when we can start staking? this is another venture to work on. those who were late in staking dash, with ETH its still possible.

Most likely this is due not only to Istanbul but also to the launch of the block browser for the Ethereum 2.0 test network. Oddly enough but finally the team and the Ethereum Vitalik Buterin started to work.Yes they have created hitches for users but for this blockchain it is normal. Because in the future we are waiting for a quality product. And let the errors be better noticed at this stage than after the Ethereum 2.0 update

When we are upgrading the protocol, it is advisable to stop every transaction to prevent a bug or missing transaction that might happen when we are upgrading it. That was why they were disabling it, prevention is better than cure.
Also proves ETH is a bullshit coin. IF you can pull off a hard fork at that scale without disagreement. THEN it is not a good thing if you seek decentralization and immutability.

What do you expect from alternative cryptocurrency? if you are looking for decentralization then you are in the wrong boat. Just let the show happens, something like this makes cryptocurrency more interesting.
