I hope there is the chance that the price of ETH will increase to more than 400$ mark very soon. Maybe it won't be long because the price ETH is kept circulating at the 300$ only so the next stop is at 500$...

After successful fork and celebration my expectation was to see quick rise in price. I think we have to wait for few more days to see the implementation and effect of that fork. I have transferred some portion into Ethereum at best price already to benefit the any increase.

Did the price actually go up pre-fork because some thought they would get a new coin out of this? That would explain why price is going down now(no new coin), I mean the fork was a success so price should be rising.

Looking at the ETH/EUR rates, actually ETH dipped before the fork at about ~270 EUR per coin.

So it seems pretty stable now, going back and forth between 280 and 290 EUR per coin.

lot of people were expecting something like BCH and BCG after the hard fork.  Grin Grin

Literally no one was expecting that, Ethereum foundation is not as messy as bitcoin, everyone was in support of the fork, and they have measures to force the miners to follow the fork, like the built-in ice-age.

What is the new for the fork happened yesterday guys?
Is now always good to mine ethereum? It switched to pos?

No, PoS won't happen for at least 2 years from now, and even then it will be gradual. This fork was for general improvements, here's a post with a lot of resources about it:

Now is a good time to mine ethereum, after the fork, miners are making slightly more money.

in the future the ETH will move to POS, the DASH like POS now, 1000 coins must be for this, it is very expensive, but 1000 ETC while inexpensive, buy while the price is low

What's the new average block time this update has??? Is it set back to 15s like before the ice-age started?

Jus check out a block explorer. Block times are ~20 secs.

yeah, it was the average for the last 5000 blocks which included some of the blocks before the fork, now it's back to 15s.

On another note, the Ethereum Network pending transactions are almost empty now! impressive! I made a tx with only 4 GWEI, and it was confirmed in less than a minute!!

Ethereum’s Byzantium hard fork went into effect Monday morning, initiating the first phase of the platform’s latest protocol upgrade.
The Byzantium fork is considered to be the first half of Metropolis, a protocol upgrade that has been planned since 2015. It introduces nine ethereum improvement protocols (EIPs) designed to enhance the network’s privacy, scalability, and security. The second phase — Constantinople — does not yet have an official release date but is tentatively scheduled for 2018.
