ETH devs are doing like they did on october - november 2017, a hard fork in order to rise eth's price even more so they can sell very high and then they will dump it to hell, by the way this hardfork is just a beacon first stage, to get to pos will take years.
"Altair, which is described as the first mainnet upgrade to the Beacon Chain, is scheduled to take place at epoch 74240, or roughly Oct. 27, according to Ethereum Foundation researcher Danny Ryan."

https://www.investopedia.com/news/what-byzantium-hard-fork-ethereum/ETH devs are using the same approach they used in oct 2017, expecting the same result, a very significant price rise and then a significant price dump and then after that we know what will happen, they will say after the price crash they are working very hard to deliver eth 2.0 pos and will soon come out and then after 2 to 4 years they launch it. ETH devs might be the greatest manipulators of eth price hehe
