Absolutely HODL ETH for long time or atleast till POS is implemented. Nobody knows how POS in ETH actually work I mean the staking rewards what if its Good enough? So start accumulating the ETH as much as you can. Project is also going good so there is no need to worry about the prices much in the short term, think it as a buying opportunity. Worst case scenario it'll be a good hedge against Bitcoin in the long run.

But why would you accumulate now and maybe find out later it's not worth it?
There's people with 10000 eth, eth devs have millions (wasn't there like 77million in circulation already before anyone else even received, bought or mined coins), those are the ones that will really profit from POS. Not someone with 5 eth.

Buterin said that conversion of consensus type from PoW to PoS will take up to 3-5 years. So it's very early to talk about holding ETH until that time. But IMO the price of eth should grow up significantly with PoS for sure.

For POS - you need about 1k ETH. Do you have this amount?
Definitelly, when ETH will go to POS and reject from POW - we will see 1000$ for ETH.

I didn't know that 1k was the minimum, that's a lot. The last time I heard about it people were saying about 40 ETH would be the expected minimum.
But there will be staking pools I assume? So in that case it wouldn't matter so much about the minimum amount.

Help me clarify this guys. Once POS happens, no more mining ETH. Then, is it good to sell the ETH, I have mined so far or hold until POS?

in my opinion will hold true until it is stable first, but hold no risk if the price has come down will likely regret in the back, but back again to each person.

this might be the opportunity for eth to rise. now all coin is red. but dont think we should worry, coin like eth will steady against this kind of situation. even eth value is goind down i believe it will be back to the top again in few weeks.

Its true.we don't need to worry when our coin is red for now, its going up again we just need to wait, ETH is a good coin for our future . That's what i really believe.

I agree. it's the market, can't be always green. Just hold.

Hi,

I think Ethereum have to increase proportionately when Bitcoin increases and reached $ 10000

Because Ethereum have lot more characteristics than Bitcoin

So Ethereum will reach and cross over $ 600 by the end of this year.

Holding ETH long term is definitely a good choice. Look at Dash, which uses POS, the price is rocketing unstoppablely.

Hold your ETH if you want to get rewards with POS. The more ETH you have, the more ETH you are going to have. But i have read that it is going to be hybrid POW/POS so it will be still possible to mine ETH i think.

Better days ahead with ethereum pos mining ethereum will fit so well to sustanability and price will spark. I don't intend to miss that the way I missed bitcoin

You can already see the spike in Eth prices and it will continue to rise further. I think it is advisable to hold ETH until POS or even more later. I will suggest to rather buy more Ethereum if you really want to take profit from the upcoming spikes.

You need to invest eth. Coins should work!! And you will increase your wealth.
I don't sell eth, will store up to 1000+ usd.

Ok guys! Do you think pos ehtereum will make ethereum stronger? what about the miner, the investment in mining gear, the fee and host of other thing that will suffer as a result of moving away from mining?

I think it is not limit for price ETH. Etherium is not only for currency and smart contract and platform. It is much bigger, if we more learn about it.

I say do not make any decisions until general consensus has been delivered. As far as I am aware there are no dates set yet, and even then it will likely be a long way out when they are announced. Use that period to try and work out which way it is steering.

You should hold by all means. 2018 is Ethereum year. Vitalik will bring it all over the world, so it's popularity might become as big as bitcoin's. And it will move price upwards, straight to the moon.

If you hold a lot of ETHs, you can choose to dump them before the POS and keep the half for the future,ethereum will rise in the next months maybe moon in 2018.
