But I would advise reading the biography of Vitalik Buterin

Do you have any evidence? What exactly makes you so sure he is a friend of Putin?

What does this statement actually mean?

I think that is somewhat exaggerated but this is a matter of choice. If Ethereum or any other crypto evolves with consensus over a period of years then those that disagree with the path can fork to make their own chain it is that simple.

Vitalik Buterin is born in russia and a friend of Putin.
With the sactions inplace it's only possible to apply sanctions after ethereum 2.0 is inplace. After 2.0 ethereum will jist be another Tether.. A currency that can tracked and deleted by Trump or Putin..

Has anybody ever really predicted which way the market will sway in 'x' month from now? The situation with the Ethereum price is not bad at all because as of writing it trades at over $3115 each. It is not at the $4891 all time high but it could have been a lot worse too. Those who might have purchased at $4000 will have very little impact influencing the price because they cannot be counted as whales and at the same time those you refer to as manipulators will also not be able to do anything to influence decisions by newbies to buy or sell.

I just do not accept the theory about influencers applies to Ethereum. In the past we have seen Bitcoin whales move funds from wallet to wallet or to cash some in which has impacted the market but I cannot recall of a single incident that has done the same for Ethereum. In my opinion, if the price of Ethereum goes up then the market will not be affected if newbies cash in because the ratio of newbie investors to serial investors is too small.

Now it is not clear which market, bulls or bears. I think that the bear market is now, because a lot of inexperienced investors bought Ethereum for more than $ 4,000 and manipulators need to force hamsters to sell their coins cheaply.  If the price of Ethereum goes up, then I don't understand who will pay for it?
I am trying to understand various scenarios, but I am more confident that manipulators will not allow new investors to sell their coins at a profit.

Price of Ethereum might fall 90% from its all time high in a bull market. It is probabaly where price will bottom out from all time high. Question is where is the all time high for Ethereum in this bull run? If people think the orice above 4k is all time high for this bull run, they can wait for 80% or 90% discount and enter for a next long term investment.

If they don't believe it, why do they not enter now?

Honestly, Ethereum is a few cryptoccurrencies that I don't believe long term investment with them will cause loses.


Newer, younger altcoins will need 4 to 8 years to have a solid position in crypto market. BNB has gone through the first toughest testing period, others should finish it too.

Else, there is no strange to see altcoins with less than 4 years old have very highly volatile price.

Ethereum is a serious fundamental asset, and I do not think that its price will drop by 90% of ATH.
For example, this is how the price of its competitors falls

For long-term investments, ethereum is a very promising asset due to lower inflation after the launch of Ethereum 2.0

30billion usd has already been locked in the staking pool, but nobody know the price of Ethereum after the hardfork. A crash in the price could in a worst case scenario give a 90% loss of the initial investment... The staking reward is payed in Ethereum and not in fiat.

Traders Bet on Ether Staking After Ethereum 2.0 Upgrade
Ether staking yields are likely to be in the range of 10% to 15% following the Ethereum 2.0 upgrade, one trader said.
https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2022/03/21/traders-bet-on-ether-staking-after-eth-20-upgrade/
"With the merge test run completed successfully, researchers expect the mainnet launch to happen by the end of June. Observers foresee increased institutional adoption once the Eth 2.0 upgrade is complete."

ETH will go POS with annual returns of 7-15% but...

10 million ETH currently locked for trading and waiting for the kiln network to be activated.

This is a huge gamble because nobody knows if it will work, or what the price of ethereum will be afterwards. The Ethereum network will be vulnerable for attack during the transition, and small bugs or problems will probobly cause panic and price decline.

1. Hedgefunds and traders will sell Ethereum as before it goes POS and convert to other POW coins.  (Historically a smart move)
2. In the short term after the merge, miners will need to dump 1 usd billion worth of ethereum to cover the electicity cost, and probobly move the rest of their funds over to other minable coins to support mining.
3. When the 10 million ethereum finally unlocks and the price has fallen, the value might decrease further. Because 7% of $300 ? was not the profit the investors signed up for..



Make sense to swap ETH with ETC. With the increased mining, Ethereum Classic will become much stronger and secure than Ethereum.
With a flood of miners entering the coin and supporting the network we might see exponential growth.

With 1 Ethereum Classic at $3000  and Ethereum at $300, the mining profit will stay the same as before. NVIDIA and AMD can continue to flood the market with graphic cards and make $$$ billions...

ETC is on fire on Coinbase. 50-60% in few days! Currently there is 10% arbitrage compared to other exchanges. And since the transactions to Coinbase take days, it will remain for some time. May be this is the beginning of the ETC/ETH flippening. With the support of all miners, anything can happen. And there is still a lot of room for an exponential growth.

so do you mean that pajamas are imminent ?

Excellent pajamas from Vitalik

A good article that collects the latest important news about Ethereum

I think that the Merge should definitely happen this year if no errors are found in the last Kiln testnet.

ETH 2.0 merge is imminent according to zerohedge.com
