ETH is very convenient, the transaction is 15 seconds. Bitcoin is the last century. For bitcoins it is necessary to monitor addresses. If more than 100 transactions are sent without changing the settings, the balance after 100 transactions will not be returned! But on the ETH you do not need to follow the addresses, the money is always returned to the address from which it was sent.

If the market is going the opposite direction of the public sentiment, then there are 3 possible cases: Either (1) there is a mistake in the assumption of the public sentiment, or (2) the market is being manipulated in order to throw inexperienced traders off and grab their money or (3) the public sentiment is being manipulated so as to believe that things are going well when the truth is there's trouble coming or to think we're doomed just before things change for the better.

Personally, I believe all 3 things are present at the same time in Ethereum.
ETH might be decentralised but it's not hard to move a market in either direction if you're rich and have the experience.

Does it seem like there's no escape if the market is being manipulated? There is a solution.
My advice is to not try and trade Ethereum (or any coin to be honest) and either buy and hold if you believe in it or stay away if you don't believe in it.


It's true that you could make more money by trading, but you could also lose a lot when just holding would bring you to a break-even.
Half the fight in the investment world is against one's self (one's psychology), if you'd lose money when you could be at 0$ gains is much worse for the psychic health than winning 50% of what you could win by trading.
So prioritise safety over maximising your gains.

Geth v1.8.19 (No Nick) just released, packing a 30% speed improvement on in-sync block processing (15% faster full sync)! Take it for a spin, tell us what you think!  https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/releases/tag/v1.8.19

Stacking for ETH is not here yet & if anyone claims that, my advise is that you should pass
Hodling long term is nice, but not always as profitable (depends when you got in).

For example:
Purchased some at $300 - let's say 10 ETH
Sold it at $200 taking a loss.
With the same ETH budget (what was left) bought 20 ETH the other day ($100).
Probably going to sell them again because I believe ETH has more room to fall - thus ending up with 30-40 ETH - if successful in this assumption.

Trading 101, hopefully that sets the picture nicely for you  
Trading 102, if you believe in the project, keep buying more as the price falls to level your loses on your initial buy.
If you can't handle it of course, then just hodl & relax, and whatever you do - don't panic.

Crypto & trading is not for the faint hearted.

Glad that you're liked me artwork if you mean this portreit


I'm agree with you about market. It's very hard to go against the crowd and I was fear when I bougth BTC couple days ago when it was about 3700. But when I remeber what BTC and ETH did to me I remember why I'm here and I overcame fear. It's very hard to remember day by day what crypto can give to the people.
I came in crypto on hype and there were a lot of guru's that sold coins to the people, pump, dump groups and other shit, but when I'm really started to understand something I realised that only two people say what they really think and this is Andreas Antonopulos and Vitalik. Of course we can hate him I think it depends when you bought ETH) but Vitalik really believe to what he did even when no one don't believe.
I read about his skirmish with Nouriel Roubini and Vitalik show their own wallet to him and it looks like he never sold his ETH, maybe paid for some coders. I remeber when Charly Lee sold his LTC on the top, maybe you confused him with Vitalik.
I see here clear distinction between Vitalik and Charles Lee. Still think this is not fair to sold all coins on top and abondoned the project I mean LTC.

It is better to hodl into your personal wallet rather throw out somewhere it could be dangerous for you. There is more high chance of lost of money even current is making panic to old investors but who have long term goal than can survive and it is better not look over the market price on daily basis.

Is there any online pool  from where I can do ETH staking.
I purchased ETH  months ago when it was 0.09 now its getting down every day .
so I want to recover my Amount. i can't do mining because I don't have  proper system  , so I was thinking to do staking   .so ,
at least I can recover few..

Do you what you are talking about, ETH is always the best cryptocurrency out there if you compare with the others. Of course, now the price of ETH went very low but due to market fluctuation the price went very low.

I have such sensing that someone purposefully raises the entire coin market, what goals they pursue are hard to say. Eth soon again will go down in price.

the ETH isn't perfect yet, but it's the best. Coins without mining are not cryptocurrency, your money can be frozen at any time.

I guess Vitalik is just waiting for the market condition to improve a bit before launching the updated version of ETH

We don't need that anymore, looks the market is becoming greener and adding more volume again. Thanks I'm getting some hopes!
Why you didn't buy yesterday? much better if you started to buy yesterday when the price are lower.

Nope, if you dilute the amount on several exchanges it's becoming negligeable. To create an impact, you' would have to dump all at once on the top 3 / top 5 ETH exchanges (smaller exchanges follow more or less the trend), but the "panic sell" would not last long.

ETH issue is the scalability that prevents high quality Dapps to be developped (they couldn't run on the current version of the blockchain). ETH is loosing the edge to faster blockchains, especially Tron (I consider EOS a junk).

Vitalik gave all his Ethereum to community that someone to not blame for manipulation. It was his example what was repeated by SatoshiLite. They dumped their own holding at top prices just to make the things more transparent. Market always move in opposite direction of public sentiment so it can taken as signals of rise, am I right ? I like the portrait with string message whoever made it, nailed it.

 

I hope ETH will recover and get back on track

If it goes down to the bottom, it will be interesting, I am very sure that pump and dump will occur quickly and cannot be controlled anymore.

Even it sounds funny there is more high chance for ETH to get back on 2nd position if current trend will continue for few more days than it will make the recovery process much faster.

REKTHEREUM

This pump can not be long, Bitcoin should fall below $3000, and the Ether below $100. Only after that you can see a steady growth.

How is the SEC even going to enforce action against ALL previous ICOs?

The SEC ruling should apply to US citizens only so exactly how is possible that all ICOs (regardless of using ETH or other) will be penalised?

If a European citizen is living in Europe and participates in a non-USA ICO then what has it got to do with the SEC if it is legal in the country that European citizen resides to participate in ICOs and it is legal to run the ICO in the country of the ICO company?
