Ethereum Much WOW?!?!

[mrdeposit]

Inflation is always a problem but if the good effect of the upcoming hardfork will be more beneficial and will have a better effect than the inflation then we can ignore this 20% inflation and enjoy the benefits of the upcoming hardfork.  If that so it is very possible that we can see a major recovery on ETH price.

Did not you read the news about the upcoming ethereum 2.0 that you think is coming soon? https://beincrypto.com/ethereum-2-wont-be-released-for-potentially-many-years/ They wrote about the need for more time for development. If eth does not lose much, it will recover, but otherwise, it will be very difficult to return to its place.

I have read this statement where they clearly said that ethereum 2.0 is not coming soon. There are reasons for the delay and it is quite disappointing for some but this is only for the own good of ethereum.
The timeframe for the development expected to last for years, but even if it does not come this coming 2020, ethereum won't lose.

I also read their hard drive this time it will reduce mining block rewards to 1 ETH per block, so it might attract people to raise ETH prices, but I also don't know about that, so far I only know about reducing mining block rewards and ETH 2.0 seems to sound will be delayed, but I will see ETH prices in early 2020

I've recently read where the beginning of the New Year will also bring an Ethereum Hard Fork which will in turn increase inflation by a monumental 20%!!! What in terms of price and overall well being of Ether and it's future will this decision make? Any thoughts, comments and speculations are as usual, more than welcome. Thanks and a Happy Holidays.

Do not create high expectations, value everything from the following point of view:

- In the past there was a great deal of interest in the ICOs and this greatly boosted the price of ETH, but few people are currently interested in ICOs.

- There are currently a lot of competitors from ETH, and as you can imagine the competition has taken some of ETH customers or investors

- With ICOs becoming a failure, what use will ETH have to outperform competitors?

- With bitcoin halving next year the attention will be turned to bitcoin and that means the altcoins will still bleed a lot

ETH always makes a happy surprise, and almost everyone is waiting for this. I'm not wrong when choosing ETH as a mainstay coin after bitcoin and it seems that many people are also doing the same thing. What is clear is that we are just waiting for news when this will all be realized. Plus there was something surprising when ETH raised inflation by 20%. I think all will hope for more success for ETH in the coming year.

but if price inflation is really going to happen then we must also be prepared with these conditions. but I personally am quite sure they can bounce back after inflation has occurred, and at the moment the hardfork hasn't happened yet so we have to wait in advance to be able to see a definitive answer and prepare for it

ethereum does provide events from fork and many others but in my opinion it is not very useful because the most important is the existence of buyers who really want to buy bitcoin, as long as there are no buyers, ethereum will not be able to survive until now.

I think it's not a problem of inflation, but the Hardfork that will happen will bring ETH to be better, I think the scalability of ETH will be one of the developments that will be completed in Hardfork this time,
If all ETH problems can be resolved, I believe the price can exceed the highest price in 2020.

Just try to believe about that but it seems like people can't be patient waiting for the ethereum update to be done in 2021. Scalability still becomes the main problem that is not easy to be resolved even you have been trying to create a lot of formulas about how to do that but you can still feel doubt about that. I think not all of the problems in ethereum can be solved in a few years.
Just try to bet on bitcoin is much better as it has a better fundamental but ethereum seems to start to grow too.
It's difficult to say where the market will be going on as so many people have expected the different direction for the future of crypto.

The rich will become richer just be doing what they have already been doing for years. Simple hold their eth in a node and make free eth. No need to buy mining equipment. On the flip side, it is now cheaper and probably safer to have an eth node then miners. At least staking you have the coins and you already broken even. Miners you have no eth and must mine your way up to break even and profits.

news about Ethereum Hard Fork or Ethereum v2 is still a question mark on this year and is it really going to happen? We are just entering the beginning of a new year and anything can happen in this 2020. of course I hope that there will be changes in prices on Ethereum and Bitcoin in this years because a lot of good news is often discussed by people about the future of these two coins.

Scheduled to be launched starting this year but will still start from the zero phase, so it is still limited to development. maybe the price increase could come from something else, or they have something better to announce in the middle of 2020. I still think ETH will upgrade smart contracts to be more effective with regard to quality to stem many ico scams and block the hacking activities of those who use them as main tools.

The roll-out of Ethereum 2.0 is delayed and worse still, there is a lot of infighting among the developers regarding this. Vitalik Buterin wants ETH 2.0 as soon as possible, and has even suggested an alternative proposal, which involves a new type of ETH validator. The original plan for the roll-out was to implement ETH 2.0 from 3rd January 2020 onwards (which changes the mining algorithm from PoW to PoS). Other developers are not happy with Vitalik's plan, due to two reasons. First of all, the transaction fee may rise. And secondly, there is a strong chance of security issues and bugs occurring as a result of this roll-out.

[crossabdd]

not sure, I think nobody knows. but hope is that can happen. ethereum is one of the best smart contract-based coins. but we also cannot lie, that ethereum also has many problems in it. with hardfork done, I personally hope ethereum will be even better. and can push the price up. after a long time there was no news or updates from the ethereum team. so prices today continue to fall.

It is only a wow if you consider the dedication of Ethereum developers to constantly make their products better. They are always hitting the road to meet their targets on time. That is indeed a wow. But as far as how much all these improvements affect the price of Ethereum we have to wait for it. We cannot say wow yet because as of this time Ethereum is still stuck at the bottom. But all these improvements if received properly by the community will certainly cause the price of ETH to pump.

[Reid]

20 percent is really huge.
Well, there are chances also that buyers may come in after the fork.

The staking process had been talked a lot of times in different programs in different countries. So I think they are ready for this.
There might be an inflation that will happen but so is buyers.
I am thinking it will just equal it and will brought the price back to normal.
$100 per Ethereum is still no that bad.

Ethereum 2.0, when implemented is going to change ETH upside down. The PoW algorithm will be dumped in favor of PoS, and in my opinion this is going to help the exchange rates. PoW encourages dumping by the miners, and create an excess supply in the market (just like what is happening with BTC right now). On the other hand, in PoS, there is an incentive for holding the coins.

[Debonaire217]

I am very disappointed with what is happening with the development of ETH. despite the loud statements of the team, etc. we do not see any positive changes not in the technological plan and in no other way. I do not sell ETH now, but I definitely believe that we will not see ETH for $ 1,500 anymore. most likely this will never happen

We can see after Ethereum released 2.0 I think it will have a good movement and prices will continue to rise, and I am sure Ethereum will reach the highest level again in the next few months only now the price is low whether this is the effect of Christmas and holidays so Many sell it for holidays after Christmas.

It was always been a yearly speculation to say that ethereum's market price will surge up because of the forks and upgrades. Though, with the previous one, there aren't really a good indication of market price there. But I still believe that updates and upgrades do really impact the market greatly and it might not be readily noticeable, it could be experience in a slow phased market development.

You are right, Ethereum is one of the great crypto and is worth investing but sad to say that it didn't meet our expectation, but it is fine as it has been very grateful for all of us through the years and its journey is not yet done, so we can still have the chance as they are doing something to make it great, let's watch out.

I have had few Ethereum stored in my Blockchain mobile wallet and I’ve never touched them, dayumn... I hope this is really true so I can be able to finally sell a part of it next year cause I have Hodl’ed them for more than one year now without doing anything with it, just waiting for the right time to sell them. I strongly believe that next year is going to be a good one for the cryptocurrency market as a whole, lots of coins are going to see increase.

Yes, in my opinion too, POS must be a good system as it will be encouraging its adopters to hold unlike POW to sell to cover up the running costs. Hopefully the upcoming days will be more different for ETH unlike how it has been struggling for last two years almost.

we must understand that these coins are not related to themselves. Bitcoin doesn't care about Ethereum, and Ethereum can have problems if Bitcoin drops. if the ETH 2.0 update will not be done in 2020, then even the growth of Bitcoin will not help to the Ethereum and there will be a possibility that Ethereum may have chance to stop to exist because so many people will simply be disappointed and start selling it
