hello guys, i've read about the ethereum metropolis hard fork and i'd like to discuss about what it implies in terms of impact on the market and in the technical aspect of hard fork:
-I have the doubt that the dumps of these days are due not only from Chinese news, but also from the desire to lower the price of the etherum in order to accumulate more in view of the hard fork as it happened for bitcoins.
-From the previous thought comes the one of a technical nature =>will the hard fork be like for BTC? so keeping the eth in a wallet during the process will be with the same amount of new eth+ old eth?

Almost a valid point except that the target of the price war wasn't ETH but BTC. ETH had already come down to half its ATH even when Metropolis was confirmed (a matter of when and not if). The accumulation is happening even now as a result, with ICOs doing the exact same thing. It won't be the BTC hard fork, where you have competing. I think people will agree to it and everyone will just move on with the new ETH.
