You are right, ethereum brings many people to crypto industry as the most used platform for startups. But so many people are disappointed with the development of ethereum or the price. The price for me shows that ethereum is not independent enough as a big platform. As you can see, ethereum price always become a tail to Bitcoin. When Bitcoin jump, ethereum follow it and when Bitcoin dip down, ethereum goes deeper. That's the problem!
In my perspective, it is just kinda fuds on Ethereum recent weeks. Disappointed with developmental progress, I don't think so. Let's think of bitcoin and what happened with bitcoin hardfork in 2017. That hardfork is truly a good one for bitcoin, but how big guys made FUDs and manipulated Bitcoin during that period. After that, weeks and months later, bitcoin rocketed to around $20.000. Now, let's stay positively with Ethereum if you are loyal investors, guys.

During the past days, there are lots of bad things relate to Ethereum, chain splits due to hard fork, and transaction fees rocketed to the Moon besides other things. Personally, I think it is only short-term bad things for Ethereum, and if loyal holders keep holding their Ethereum, they will do see sweet results for their portfolio in months later.
I have a feeling like Ethereum has been in its very last period before rocketing to the Moon. Such bad news forced the price of ETH falling down just a little, that is a good signal of final consolidation phase.

The price fall has hardly been a surprise since all crypto prices took a hit.
Given time, all crypto should recover to find their own stable price. The thing with ETH along with just a handful of other crypto is that they will bounce back and they should be able to offer you a return on your investment even if takes a bit of time. With all these the copycats offering contracts and so on, Ethereum is still holding its own. Maybe when positive news starts filtering through about its short/long term plans it might bring stability to the price and confidence to investors.

Does this mean that now we will get another coin? Like the one which gave us ETC? Or this is just a routine fork that won't play any major role.
The ETC fork is a contentious one meaning a substantial part of the ETH community disagree with "rescuing the failed "The Dao." This time everybody is on board with fork updates.
Ah, thank you very much for clearing that out. Every time I hear the word fork I instantly start to think that we might be getting a new coin lol.
This is good news for eth community, if more merchants copy this act it will bring more attention to the ethereum network, this also means more adoption of eth not only btc will get all the good news, the time to load up eth is here because many similar offers may keep coming up.
It's because the chinese scam that was eating ~50% of the gas finally ended. Devs drained the contract, so no one is playing the game. No more crazy load from 1 dapp.
But Ethereum still needs to be scalable. If one single DApp even if ponzi or scam, clogs the network, that is not good at all for legit resource-hogging apps.

Istanbul Testnet Hard Fork on October 2

https://coindar.org/en/event/ethereum-eth-istanbul-testnet-hard-fork-24100
This Istanbul testnet fork caused Ethereum network split,
and this is one more proof why good testing is needed before mainnet.
On a good note I noticed a lot lower fees on eth network recently

you need to know all these dramas is still in the testnet phase

So what's next after unexpected chain split in testnet?
Will the Instanbul fork will be postponed for mainnet?
Will be. The gap in the test chain happened because the fork happened ahead of time and the miners were not ready to support it.Will the Instanbul fork will be postponed for mainnet?
In the main chain, miners will support and everything will be fine.
We are waiting for DEVCON to announce more accurate information on it.

The key word here is "TESTNET".
I didn't read the details but it seems something didn't go right with their testings. This would be a problem if the update was pushed in the mainnet without testing first, but now they have time to fix whatever issue there was.

Guys, today I had to update a full wallet on my computer. The last time I did it was over a year ago. It has been so long since the launch of network, and ETH has become top 2 crypto-currencies, but why does the wallet still have such a look and works crookedly?

Normally, miners on a proof-of-work blockchain like ethereum and test network Ropsten are required to manually upgrade their software in order to ensure the smooth continuation of a single chain.
According to Hudson, the majority of miners on the Ropsten blockchain did not upgrade to the latest software, since the time of the hard fork caught many developers off guard. This has resulted in a split of the test network between those mining on the upgraded chain and those mining on the outdated chain.

I just hope these miners will be upgrading their software as soon as possible.
But remember if that was a testnet. When the majority of those miners will have upgraded their software and there will be no separate chain and a single chain will be enough.

Well there are numerous coins out there that outcompetes ETH and XRP, Unfortunately both have first mover advantage hence it's highly unlikely any of those coins to get in 2/3 rank. Maybe Libra(Or any other coin by tech giants) will take the 2nd place someday?
Libra? If you're talking about decentralization, Libra won't cut it. I don't expect Facebook to share maximum benefits of maintaining a Libra node, unlike true decentralized networks like Bitcoin. They will always make sure they have the majority of whatever they plan to use as a validating node.
libra is sure much better than those tether, i would take libra over all those out of thin air stable coins any day.

The topic of Ethereum has become more crowded in recent hours. What's wrong with Ethereum, please tell me. If you think there is something wrong with Ethereum, please tell me which altcoins will replace Ethereum at the second position in the crypto area. Ripple, nope. Bitcoin Cash, nope. TRON, nope. So, which one in your opinion?
I don't see anything strange happening... or rather... I see nothing is happening with Ethereum's developement! But maybe I just haven't done my research so nvm.But let me remind you that XRP and ETH have been trading the 2nd position a few times now.
Any other coin to come along and dislodge them will take a monumental effort and there is guarantee they will be able to do it.
