I learnt that the ethereum fork will bring about reduction in reward per block for miners from 3ETH to 2ETH thereby causing Ethereum to be scarce.

My question is will the scarcity bring about signifant increase in price?

maybe yes, because people want the coin from the fork in Ethereum like fe time ago in Ethereum Classic, but i'm not interest in fork from Cryptocurrency

in my opinion it will experience a price increase but not in a fast time it might still take a little longer, but after a hardfork cancellation it turns out ethereum prices are now experiencing price declines, not too much

After the decline those who fomo's buying are now realizing their mistake as they don't have any knowledge about the longer effects of this, lesser block rewards means lesser coins to be awarded in the long run it can bring the value up as supply and demands are also practice inside the market, after the fork it will be notice by people who are aiming for long term success than those who are after with short term earnings.

In general, first of all, you need to understand why prices are rising with hard forks announcements. Whether there will be a twin will have enough decent value, it is quite understandable why everyone wants to have ethereum on their wallets as much as possible.

Perhaps someone is interested in hardfork, he only in order to earn additional income, but I think that investing in ethereum in any case will positively affect this platform. One way or another, we will be doubly winners.

Most of the hardforks participants are only interested to get the fast buck through use ethereum hardfork coin as a way and they can dump it asap. Platform gets positive impact if there will be an important thing being implemented.

It seems to me that today we must first of all expect the scaling of the block chain and the update, which unfortunately is postponed. But I hope that this situation will only make it possible to eliminate the mistakes and to make the ethereum product truly unique and in demand in a society much more than it has been until now.

It always depends on how the network recover back to its previous state, and the forking with expensive fees could initiate profitable price for ethereum. The previous days that eth was having fork, really did great pumps on the market history and many of holder gain better profits. Demand for eth will also increase once this happens again, and this means a good signs for eth to maintain it's momentum soon.

Looking at the market conditions price will not spike but for longer term there will be slight increase in the price due to scarcity in mining rewards and also this hardfork will not bring huge impact on price before the hardfork even as this hardfork is non contentious which means there will be no separate coins will be going to issued to holders, there will be an upgrade from ETH 1.0 to ETH 2.0.

The schedule for the hardfork has got postponed. For some reason surely good price increase can be experienced once after it takes place. Ethereum being the dominant asset next to bitcoin has got the potential to grow high as the investment over ethereum keeps counting even when the market dominance is much low compared to the days when it went close to the dominance level of bitcoin.

it will be just a matter of time for right now, a lot of crypto investors are staying away from investing ethereum because of its massive downfall last year and it still ongoing this year, such a tragic event but nevertheless ethereum might regain its composure again once these fake and weak hands will be done.

Yeah patience is all we need to wait for the cleansing of the entire crypto market to take get-out those weak hands and those doubtful investors. Time will come we can achieve again those glory days of crypto and we can smile with the fruits of our investments. This is the right time to accumulate many ethereum and stay focus on those quality coins while they are still at lower price.

I sure hope that it does. These improvements would purportedly fundamentally change the Ethereum blockchain thus making it more valuable. Although one cannot deny that Ethereum is already efficient on it's on way. Moreover, major cryptocurrency exchanges including Coinbase, Kraken, Huobi, and OKEx were already confirming their support of Ethereum Constantinople. I think this support will be beneficial for Ethereum's value after its implementation.

Yes, will improved Ethereum protocol and the mentioned exchanges site does supported ethereum constantinople but with the current bug reports about Ethereum there's possibility that the price may not increase after the fork was implemented. Besides, some people even believe the die of Ethereum is at hand.

Well most likely it would push the price of Ethereum up imo
Because with the POS, which means there will be people who stock up ethereum and stake it
This also means portion of Ethereum will be remove from market because people are staking it

Hence, positive price

It will, no matter what is the reason. The price will be slowly increasing when the fork happens.
The main point is the increases would be very small or even would went down if some investors use this event to get more profit.

This is the first hard fork of a major cryptocurrency that didn't really influence price.
I think reduced inflation rates will be great over the long run, but I really expected more short-term movement. I suspect I wasn't the only one.

Until recently, I was still very much expecting to actively change the situation on the cryptocurrency in the market. But apparently I was mistaken and realized that it is impossible to take into account all the forecasts, which are encouraging users of cryptocurrency in a positive way.

There is a higher chance of a price increase on ethereum price before or after 5hthe hardfork because it will give those miners a hard time to mine ethereum so the demand will surely increase. If the demand increases, the price increases too right? I am pretty sure that the reason we are now seeing a price dump on ethereum is because of the whales who wanted to get it at a lower price before the hardfork.

I thought yes, because just yesterday when there was an announcement that HF ETH occurred in mid-January ETH prices increased, but after news of delays regarding HF ETH prices fell again, so I'm sure if HF occurs at the end of February it will make ETH prices rise

Hardfork can definitely help the value of Eth to increase because as we can observed from previous days it was a bit moving up but then after it was cancelled, it was going down. Let's just hope for the good and probably this could be the time to get some good amount of profits.

Its possible but I don’t want to expect. ETH moves normally and I don’t see any special trade right now maybe soon if there’s a new hype in the market and if the fork was implement already. There is so much hope with ETH, it will be more expensive again, and the market will go back to normal uptrend.

Of course, if we take into account the price of ethereum at the end of 2018 in the region of $ 80, then in January 2019 we had a maximum of $ 150 for ethereum. And now, if we analyze the hard forks of the past years and their influence on the cryptocurrency market, the indicators were much higher.

in any case, if we do not take into account the greedy hopes of many users of cryptocurrency, who buy the ethereum only in order to get a double in their wallets and then sell it, then I first of all hope for updating ethereum and for its further development. This is what should bring owners of the ethereum and the team to good results in the near future.

it is not about the scarcity of eth because of fork, as you can remember if you were in the industry long period ago,bitcoin also has fork and now the price is too low, it is about the demand of the people and the help of investors.

The cut in the block reward is only part of the reason why people are excited about the upcoming fork but is definitely one of the most important points, the supply of a coin is critical, despite the huge step forward that bitcoin meant for the world one factor that makes it incredibly valuable is its scarcity, we know there are a limited number of coins and we know the developers will never allow any change in the supply and to me ethereum is doing the right thing by decreasing the block reward and I hope that at some point in the future they establish a limit to the number of coins which will be created.

aw . for real ? i didnt notice that but thanks for the info bud . forks can solve the eth's dip but after it , the price can also go down because majority of the investors will sold thier eth and thier fork coins for easy profit .

that is the biggest fear that the ether investors had, which is why the fork pump failed long before the fork itself started to fall apart and be postponed.
they know very well that the whales were waiting to dump their bags as soon as the pump reached its climax.

And why everyone does not think about the fact that its capitalization may again fall at the same time, and competitors are not asleep. And then the question is why should he fork when the parent coin loses demand. I think all these steps will only exacerbate the problems of the ether.

Price already pumped from $80 to $120 before the hardfork.. If there was no announcement about hardfork the price had dropped further down.. Ethereum is gonna dump hard soon.. There is no trust anymore.. On Bitmex and some other exchanges whales filled there pockets, but you can clearly see there is not a real buy interest anymore.. Hardforks have destroyed crypto.. It turned in pump and dump action hiding behind updates.. Community of crypto are pumpers and dumpers.. Everyone tries to make money since 2017.. The fun is over 700 billion dollar money is gone and will never come back.. Most guys dumped there bags filled there pockets with real dollars and are gone..

The price increase is possible only in the speculative case and only until the fork. It always happens that before a significant event, the price of a token grows, and this should happen here.
After the fork, I am sure that the price will fall again - this is a normal chart of the crypto market. The shortage of Ethereum?? this cannot and will not happen, it is not a way to raise the price of Ethereum. For its solid growth requires a u-turn and ICO in which the resurrected will pour Ethereum river.

In the long run, of course, the update of Ethereum will positively affect its price, but not as fast as it may seem at first glance. I think that we need to wait for the main update of Serenity, after which Ethereum will move to a qualitatively new level and then its price will increase.

Considering the present market scenario it will not affect the price but in longer run this hard fork will surely help to control the inflation. As the price increase totally depends on market demands & Ethereum have more competitors as compare to its previous ATH run. This competitors are obviously accumulating the ethereum market shares like EOS, TRON, QKC, ADA, ZIL, NEM etc.

A price increase depends on the demand for the new forked chain. And it has been asked for by a lot of people. The only reason it took this long is because of the decentralized nature of PoW. But finally the answer has been done to move to a greener and faster PoS. This is in high demand for its scalability so once it gets under way, theoretically speaking, it should pick up in price too. As for Ethereum classic, cannot really say as the variables that may affect it, especially after the giant bug, is up for debate.

it is not about the scarcity of eth because of fork, as you can remember if you were in the industry long period ago,bitcoin also has fork and now the price is too low, it is about the demand of the people and the help of investors.

I believe every forking really disturb actual price and mostly lead them into downtrending.
So about ETH, if we see the current situation, It's difficult to see uptrend after forking.
All we can do is wait patiently , just hold it !

Agreed. I don't see Ether pumping now, unless BTC leads the way with green candles.
But once again it's ETH being reliant on BTC, detatching is not going according to plan Grin

The update of the recent ethereum fork is all about the system enhancement as this will half the mining reward and this will reduce daily dumping from those miners. In the future this will make difference as the amount of ethereum token that will dumps daily will reduce with this upgrade and this will makes the price of ethereum will rise in the coming months.

The fork news is already priced in the market. Ethereum will increase primarily if market starts going up and not really because of this fork.

Its already pumping now again and I think that hardfork will not bring good price with ETH not unless if we are in a bull market. If bitcoin starts to grow again, the market will follow and ETH also depend on bitcoin so its not east to pump the price alone.

The hardfork especially related to the POS migration will give ethereum a long term sustainable increase. You should read how strong the fundamentals that created by ethereum through its fork. POS switch will become the main bet in the future and this must be true.

It will not do much in the short term, it has gone down and now ripple has overtaken ethereum to the number 2 spot. What will increase demand is good quality ICOs running on the ethereum platform, so far there aren't that many compared to last year

It is not about that you will get coin for the fork. It is only a system upgrade like as you said in the first post that block rewards will halve and it will turn into PoS coin. So, ethereum market will get no extra exposure. I do not think it is going to increase the price.

Price increases on ETH or all altcoins and bitcoins don't depend on their system. Supply and demand are two factors that can make the price of the crypto currency rise and fall and what determines both factors are all investors. ETH fork has finished, but I still haven't found interest in buying ETH, unlike with the fork that has happened.

The most important thing is that hardfork should be done without errors. If the update improves the Ethereum network, even without a bull run Ethereum price will definitely begin to grow. I think we should not worry about the future of Ethereum. In my opinion ETH has a chance to catch up with BTC this year.

ETH deceived everyone again.. another delay from the developers.. the worst is that they should suspected this woudl happen, and shouldnt have waited until last minute to inform about this.. i find this very unfair for all of us, that were expecting something great and were dissapointed, like last time, during november, with another failed hardfork.

Because it was delayed so people who started piling up ethereum for the upgrade throws it again into some other altcoins.

The two scam forks, just forget about it. They were already busted and feel sorry for the boys who got scammed by these scams. Next time to the victims, you should be more skeptic in such things like fork so you will be more careful next time.

While I also feel sorry for all the people that lost their money to those scammers they really do not have an excuse, it was said many times the fork is not going to be contentious so a new coin was not going to be generated and yet they fell in such a trap, the smallest investigation about the topic should have raised some red flags and after some forum members exposed the fraud then that should have been enough to stop those scammers, but it did not, which show to us most people invest based solely in the hype of a coin.

I think that at the beginning we will not see large increases in Ethereum prices. However, if the fork will succeed and everything will work as the developers have planned, it will be a very solid basis for the Ethereum price to grow even x5 in the time of few months.

I also hope that this fork pushes the price up again.
That is why i think it is too bad that the fork was postponed.
But as the market behaves, i am not sure if it really brings the price up.

There's no fundamental reason for ETH to pump during the time of the fork as the fork itself has been announced for a while.
Your best bet is a combination of:
1. Manufactured hype to pump the price
2. People actually reading up on ETH 2.0 and the upcoming updates
But by the looks of it, the pump never happened

The forks, as much they are aimed at improving the Ethereum ecosystem and about better value to Ethereum which is sinking hopelessly. Decreasing reward per block leading to lesser token in circulation also need to be complimented with a matching demand for the price to make a tangible movement, else nothing will really change.

Yes, that is definitely a bullish sign, as the miners get less as a reward for mining a block the supply in the markets will slowly begin to decrease and if we assume that the demand remains the same then a slow increase in the price is possible, but as we know the upgrade caused a spike in the demand and if we combine the two factors then the price will probably grow faster than expected, but now with the delay we do not know when the upgrade will take place.

Fork will not. It was canceled by the developers due to the presence of a bug in the software, which could lead to a hacker attack and significant loss of money, so it was postponed indefinitely in order to avoid this negative probability. Therefore, the growth of prices so far can be forgotten.

It could lead to price increase, because the new fork reduce the inflation.
But most traders doesn't care of factors like this and I expect a price decrease in short term because of panic.
However, in long term (6+ months) I expect a price increase.

Yes as the number of Ethereum that should be in circulation will be very scared and we should expect very high in Ethereum pricing. However, on the normal bases this should happened since yesterday but that was not possible but now we have very bad market and after the fork we would see what is going to happen.

ETH is going to be a POS coin in 2020. Which means you are going to earn ETH while you have some ETH amounth in your wallet. This situation is also will deeply impact the price of ETH.

I think the developer of Ethereum had done a thorough analysis about these changes and for sure this will give a good impact to the price in a long run. Yeah it will not take effect right away as this will takes time to establish the price to make it stable. Those who will buy with a lower price and make a long term investment will beneficial with this update.

Nice explanation. Yes, it will bring an increase to the price if it will also cause to bring a demand. Usually when there the rewards are lessen per block it will impact the prices for real.

Just compare the bitcoin halving, it has increased and made significant impact for bitcoin so I believe that the same effect will occur for Ethereum which I really think is possible after the upgrade.

Less possibility of happening a ptice increasement because the total market is bearish now. Market capital is also lessening day by day. So, the possibility is merely low. I think ethereum will remain stable and later after the 1st quarter of 2019, market will recover a little.

Ethereum price is already down. If after the fork its going to be dumped more then this is going to be really disappointing, it won't be helping this market and I think more will blame the eth platform to be really faulty. I would therefore conclude EOS and TRON is going to be a more dominate in the coming years.

decreasing rewards to miners will reduce people's interest in mining ETH, and surely that won't make ETH prices rise, but in Hardfork this time it's not only about reducing ETH miner's rewards there are still many other system upgrade that will definitely make ETH prices rise

Significantly it will not because it will make a diversion to the investors that are holding to that certain crypto. Now look what happen to BCH and the hard fork which is BSV. Both of this crypto had fall down and this is why the fork or upgrade to the new block chain technology of that certain crypto will definitely bring market price of the market.

The changes will be, but I think not as significant as you want. Let's look at the demand for a new fork of the ether, which will determine its price.

From a strictly economic point of view reduction of Ethereum inflation should lead to price increase. After fork expectations of traders also play their role.

It may or may not bring about a price increase in the short-term, but I'm confident that it will in the long-term - it's an important development step on the roadmap.
Any short-term impact has likely already been priced in, which is why I'm a bit skeptical that we'll see a big rise straight after the fork takes effect.

That is for sure, but the question is when will the fork would occur, because recently it has been postponed due to some speculation of attacks., and so if it could happen after the forked, im so sure that the scarcity of supply would definitely bring back the price to its original state.

It will, can you imagine when each of miners can dump 3 ethereum to the market directly before the forks and in the future they will dump only 2 ethereum to the market. that means there will be around 33% decrease in the inflation that caused by the miners to prevent the market to grow.
