Yes, there's no doubt. Even with terrible market conditions, just the hype of the new update coming out alone will increase the price of Ethereum. If the market was already trending upwards when it's released, it could be something really special. Either way, as we get closer to the release of the 2.0 update, be prepared to watch the price climb up from all the hype and renewed interest in the project.
So, what can we make as a benchmark that ethereum prices will increase after the 2.0 release.
I think the price increases depending on the presence of interested people in crypto. The chaos in the crypto world today keeps prices drop. The chaos I meant was that there was frequent fraud at the start of the project launch, and the team that fled by ignoring the project, did not conform to the planned roadmap.
I don't think I could give you any idea of how much the price of ETH would rise with hype from the community of the updates, but it will almost certainly rise. Just look at what happened with BSV and that whole fiasco. A little bit of positive news about something really gets people interested in it again. The same goes for negative news having a negative impact on the prices.
