Keep or sell ethereum before the merge?

I've made some researches and found plenty of rumors saying that ethereum will dump after the merge and why's that? (short term)

Never care about these rumors, they are just untrue expectations, this merge will be one of the largest updates to Ethereum, so it is likely that Ethereum price will help make a new ATH because it will attract a lot of investors, the purchase rate will increase, do not worry about the short term, everything is possible In the crypto market, but in the long term, it is expected that Ethereum will exceed 4 thousand dollars, so rest assured, and even if there is any price dump, you just have to hold your coins for the long term and never sell before the merge.

i am also on the side that the price of eth will rise instead of decreasing its price. it may dump a lil but it can easily go back and increase again. the assurance with eth is that you are not investing in a crappy platform but you are holding one of the top projects. with this, in my opinion, it is better to hodl your eth. you will regret if you are seeing the price is rising up and you already sold yours.

Keep or sell ethereum before the merge?

I’m still holding my ETH since I bought it at a higher price and have no choice but to hold it, I can say that it’s better not to panic and just see what will happen after this merge. Just keep on Holding because this update is for the good of ETH platform and they wont push through this update if they didn’t believe that it will work. The founder of ETH and the team behind this is doing their best to upgrade their platform, I believe this update will be good.

[Piesel]

I think after the merge of Ethereum it will go up and will make a new ATH. So before taking any decision you should research by own and decide what you want to do or you can sell a small amount before the merge. It's all about depends on you.

I.dont know why many of you guys believe the the ethereum merge is going to change thing in the network, you are not the only one who believes the ethereum market price will go up after the merge, but I put it to you the ethereum merge is not going to pump the price and is not going to reduce the transaction fees either too. The merge is all about the connectivity of the network to another layer 2 chains that will enable the movement of the ethereum network on the POS network of computing.

For now the predictions were not in the favour of ethereum to go steep rise once after the merge. For different reasons the merge is predicted to bring some down market and further make positive move. So, rather than thinking of selling it is good to hold the ethereum for long term. Even if the merge is effective, we can't experience the best growth instantly. It follows the market trend, so when bitcoin turns bullish we ethereum too will grow.

[DapanasFruit]

Personally, I am expecting that for some good weeks after the merge there can be a good inflow of momentum for Ethereum so there is a big possibility of its value to go up. However, it would not be able to sustain it for a long time especially if people will realize that there remains many big problems with this "heir-to-the-throne" crypto network. So we can all benefit with its coming gains but as always we should not close our eyes to the fact that expectations can be so high and some can be disappointed.

Everyone is free to make predictions about what will happen to Ethereum after the merge, certainly no one can give a guarantee that their predictions
are accurate. This means that there are still many possibilities that can happen, so we don't worry too much about what happens to Ethereum.
Better to just focus on accumulating more Ethereum, because no matter what happens to Ethereum, eventually in the long term Ethereum will go up too.
So like you said instead of thinking of selling our Ethereum, why don't we hold it until the price goes up. Ethereum is the best altcoin and in any
case investing in Ethereum in the long term will always be profitable.

It's too good to be true. Don't you think bitcoin will always be sitting at the bottom to see that happened? I meant yeah you can predict it to happen but ethereum can't leave from impact created by bitcoin. Ethereum was doing a big update but i shall remind you that if that will give short term impact.
 The fact that if people must also aware if ethereum will not reach new ATH if bitcoin will not reach new ATH first. Bitcoin first and then ethereum.
I never see ethereum could decouple from bitcoin even when there was a huge update like burn or merge

Cryptocurrencies are generally based on Bitcoin. If Bitcoin is able to go on a bull run then Ether will be in second position with it. ATH is not expected in a bearish market. Where burning News will not have any impact. People's demand for cryptocurrency is increasing so holding is most important. If there is any doubt about the Ethereum merge, it is better to invest in another platform. In a competitive business everyone wants to stay ahead.

In your opinion, which coin should we invest in which can be safer than bitcoin and ethereum. Whether the consolidation has an impact on the ethereum price, we won't know, but overall it will be short-term and that shouldn't be too important. Once bitcoin has not moved any ethereum activity will be negligible so no need to panic.

[dlightag]

The world is waiting for the Ethereum merge, which we make the price skyrocket, after the merge has been done, and is good to buy and hold, because Ethereum is number two Alt-coin in the cryptocurrency market capitalization.

[CoolBoybd]

We should keep Ethereum till the merge because it will create more hype and have a chance to make a huge pump.

[mich]

I think the price of Ethereum will break 2k when the merge happens.  So if selling your Ethereum is on your mind just wait until maybe a few days have passed after September 15.
But just know other people will behaving the same strategy as you so you must be quick or considering setting a sales point on a exchange or what you use to do your trading.

[Jeger.Kiting]

Do your best for your decision or you should look for information that you really believe in, because if you have doubts about this, you will miss out on this best moment. In my opinion Ethereum is the best coin I have ever seen, for something like this you better keep it because I believe once the merger starts 2.0 Ethereum the cost will be very cheap and everyone will definitely hunt for Etherum after that the price will definitely go up. Of course this is just my opinion, all your decisions will be decisive and it is the best thing you can take for your future investment.

[blue_hurricanger]

Keep it. I'm sure The Merge will have plenty of late-to-the-party investors. They FOMO will push the price of ETH to be very high. Binance and other CEXs already plan to stop the deposit/withdraw ETH which I think is another thing to contribute to the high price of ETH around The Merge. Since the ETH supply to exchange will be cut from the wallet, this is the spelling for a pump. How much? I can't tell. The risk of it being dumped post Merge is also there.

[Pujangga]

I think keeping is better than selling, especially since the price of ethereum is currently very cheap, I'm sure eth will skyrocket again so it's the best decision if we want to be patient and wait for the merge process to complete.

[Pamadar]

We need to be clear into something the merge won't affect your holding or give you losses unless you are in a panic and selling them when the price drops. I suggest you OP clear out your mind and never make this rumor influence your minds but rather be focused on what you aim for. Seeing Ethereum price to dump is literally possible and we don't have to worry about that because that was temporary.
No risk no gain, think about it OP.

Indeed, right mentally prepared in whatever situation will give a good insight into what you should do,

It's something that investors or traders need to understand before investing. The ETH market might experience
downfall if there are many traders that will sell and panic during the transition, while if all the solid supporters of ETH
project will continue to hold and allow the merger to pass and will not do or will not move their holdings. The value will
possibly pump or will maintain the current position. It's always depends on how you analyze and understand the project
that you are supporting.

The merger is good for ethereum, so it won't cause ethereum to go down. We don't know how much OP bought but if he is a long term investor it should be kept. If he sells out at the current price and after the merge ends, eth is not dumped as expected but continues to increase in price, then he will no longer have a chance to own ethereum at a low price, he will buy it at a higher price and then the profit will decrease somewhat.

[abralzain17]

why do you believe so much about these rumors?, I think there will be many positive sides if the merger is carried out as intended in the rumors. despite the various rumors being reported for Ethereum, I personally will not give up the ethereum that I still hold on to. it's up to what rumors hit ethereum.

The price is expected to drop to extreme levels after the update and even a little before it. This will continue for an unknown period of time until all nodes are up to date.
Price is always related to supply and demand, and demand is expected to decrease as the mining algorithm changes.
Currently, without the merge, the price of Ethereum is not commensurate with its real value due to the problems that is supposed to be overcome after the update. The price is supposed to recover before the end of the current year.

[Issa56]

I don't really know if the merge will dump or pump Ethereum, so I think it will be better you sell half of your Ethereum and hold half, incase if the coin dump then you can buy back with the money you sold the half and I case if the coin pump then you won't be missing the pump completely you are having half of your money in the coin atleast you will also benefit. Lot's of people are just predicting but nobody is sure about what will happen so I think shouldn't listen to the people that asked you to sell and you should listen to the people that asked you to hold, just make it 50/50.
