So, you want to buy ETH now to get the "fork" coin? If yes, I don't think the next fork will create new coin like what btc does, or at least that what i read. There is no block number about when it will happen, only date which is on 16 January 2019. From that, i don't think there will be fork coin.
Even if there will be new tokens or coin when for happen, i think you probably will receive it directly to your wallet or there will be news about it.

No, the fork will effectively create a new coin. Date of a fork is always derived from a block number and estimated block velocity, Constantinople is about to happen at block 7,080,000.

From what I know, Ethereum upgrade Constantinopole won't produce a new coin. According to the developer, the upgrade is expected to make ethereum blockchain faster and efficient.

hi everyone, i have a question, please answer

at which block will the eth Constantinople hard fork occur?
should i buy eth now to get the fork? or is it too late? thanks for all the help

not too late because hardfork is expected to occur in January. my advice is better buy now, hold it because now the price is quite low. if the attention is coming soon the price of ethereum will go up, so if you don't buy now you will regret it

hardfork's plan will start in mid January and at this time the price isn't too high, so there's still time to start buying if you want to get a good moment to be able to sell it at a high price

The hardfork at block 7080000 - current block = ..... x 14.5 seconds/block miner (+-) =.... : 86400second/24hour = xxxx day, look like on etherscan last blocks.

Note: I saw hardfork will not to produce any new coin, like old ethereum classic ETC. so an original preparing of ethereum 2.0 and under-main PoS also an including scalability (TPS/network/etc) other things the technicals

Meeting-Agenda Dev, prepare before HF Friday 04th January https://github.com/ethereum/pm/issues/66/

it's not too late to buy, please buy ETH as best you can and save it in your wallet,
later when hardfork is close, there will be a lot of information born.

Dude, please, be more constructive when you post and read the topic carefully.

@OP, I never knew that there will be an upcoming fork. This might be the reason why ETH maintained its value at $100-150, who knows, it might go up to $200 again.

I will reiterate what damberg have said. According to coindesk;

"the developers assembled agreed on block 7,080,000 on the ethereum blockchain as an activation point at which users would be able to elect to upgrade to the new code. Put simply, should users choose to accept the change by upgrading their software, the update would go live when the block is mined.

According to estimates by release manager for the Parity Ethereum client, Afri Schoedon, this means Constantinople is expected to go live between January 14 and 18."

in this update, ETH holders will not receive any additional coins. so buying for some kind of free distribution it is very bad idea

There is no split, it's just an upgrade. The ETH "proof-of-stake" might be near.

If you go to etherscan, this information is the first thing you will see. Thats why nobody is responding in the first instance.

I have the same concern too. I wanna get some of these tokens. My situation is that my ETH are on the MEW, is there anything I'd have to do to actually receive some of these tokens or I get automatically sent to my account as I have Ether on it?

A lot of forks already, will it even have a value?
