The upcoming upgrade is huge, maybe we can see it in just a few months in my opinion this transition from pow to pos is great for ethereum and will make the price pump since a lot of people will need to hold their ethereum in order to get the staking rewards.

If that is the case he might be looking for a long time to find an investment that can safely give him anything close to what he is seeking.

What exactly is the point you are making? I read this post several times and cannot understand what you trying to get at here.


Hi All,

We have been holding some BTC/ETH since the few years ago, however, majority of our assets are remaining in traditional stock and equity as we are from the stock brokerage background.

Eventhough we believe Ethereum should be a great alternative to replace the traditional capital market. However, we have been seeing a lot of Alt coin is offered in the past few years and yet quite a large number of them are scam in nature or highly in doubt. A lot of my peers have lost part of their investment in those alt coins. This is the reason that prevent us from investing larger portion of our assets into ETH. This may be also the reason why ETH market value is remain lower than BTC.

As compare to the traditional global equity market, digital assets market are remain extremely small in value. Are there a highly viable solution to convert those traditional capital market investors to hold more digital assets in their portfolio?

Vitalik always had problems with the implementation of the roadmap.
Perhaps launch delayed until Devcon in Colombia.

Whatever the problems are for the delay of ETH 2.0, it deserves our waiting time. People (investors) who have enough patience and determination to keep holding ETH will get sweety profits later. It might take a few months to hit the profit-taking line but it deserves waiting time.

Please tell me which one (over thousands of altcoins/tokens) deserves the second position (a solid second position) in crypto? If it is not Ethereum, please tell me.

Vitalik is a kind of perfectionist and maybe he would prefer to prepare a perfect ETH 2.0.

Any idea if the guys at ethereum still aiming to release the public testnet of ETH2.0 by the end of July? Or that was the wrong info?

This is absolutely crazy, the fees are nothing short of unbelievable. After reading your post I was not sure whether I should laugh at the state of play where Ethereum finds itself or whether I should feel sorry for the state in which it finds itself.

The fees stated in the post are just mind-boggling !


The fun continues..

New update regarding this strange high ethereum fees is connected with theory that hackers did blackmailing exchange with ransomware attacks!

Damn! If this continues to happen we might soon see a price dump on ethereum in the future. They already made 3 huge transactions don't know how many more will they make before the funds dry out.

Thank you for stating the figures involved, they look interesting. Many organisations end up having mining farms in countries where electricity is simply cheaper and they do end up making phenomenal amounts of profit from mass mining but any spike in electricity costs could easily make the whole process turn in to a net loss enterprise.

Mining has benefits without doubt but equating those benefits with outright purchasing of crypto saves the headaches and teething problems involved, it is all about finding the perfect balance to make it economically viable to mine versus buying instead.


Miners say that electricity costs are 70-90% of all expenses. If you have the opportunity to buy electricity at $ 0.03 per kW and cheaper, then you can think about buying mining equipment

It is better to make your own mining pool

LOL, those transaction fees were crazy. If those transactions really were a mistake then the guy or pool that mined the block must be crazy rich right now.

Hi Crypto Friends :)
I just hope that ETH can bounce back as it used to be to surprise all Ethereum fans  Smiley

I honestly think there's a good chance Eth can reach its former ATH in the future, but I think it will probably take a bit of time. Back when Bitcoin went to 1k for the first time, I thought it would never hit 1k again and now its 9k haha

This transactions are just crazy! Everyone is talking about it.
Looks like some pools and miners are doing lot of shady things.
And I bet this two transactions are not the only one with crazy fees.

Yes I understand why you would cite buying over mining especially when mining difficulty would eventually make it uneconomical to mine.

I would still advise those curious about mining to explore options not about Ethereum but about so many crypto out there that they could learn about and make money from.

Would mining on a purchased rig be better over renting one which would at least allow for an owner to switch mining to other crypto in the event ETH 2.0 is a complete failure in terms of making money for him?

What do you think, about rent asic and mining-rigs on https://miningrigrentals.com/
Is there any sense to do mining Ethereum with the current mining-difficulty?
What about ROI of the mining,
and when the consensus will be switched on Proof-Of-Stake, on which block?

If you are looking to sell immediately after mining then no renting rigs will be an expensive affair but if you are willing to wait in a hope that price will go up during the ETH 2.0 FOMO then it could be profitable IMO but the problem is there's no date for launch yet.

Totally agree with @bkbirge here it's better to buy off ETH at the market instead of buying new hardware for mining because once FOMO about ETH2.0 hits mining difficulty will go through the roof.
