[ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning

[slasi1974]

well in my opinion its still a beginning of cryptocurrency and blockchain I knows nothing then about cryptocurrency otherwise I will invest in the ico for sure 

[Saverenergy]

This situation will change, I think within 2 weeks. Ethereum will again take its deserved second place. This is just the beginning of the path Ethereum.

Flippening soon?

The current situation must change, it should not be so. The legal place Ethereum is the second after Bitcoin.

we can see right now suddenly XRP price and volume rising... is there any good news about Ripple?  

Yes, the fact is that there was no positive news about Ripple, an increase of 20% is not supported by anything. Extremely manipulation. Earlier Ether shot at 17% and after that shot Ripple. Without giving to take the second place ETH.

Big momentum appeared mins ago, and ETH started rising to the Moon again as a gift of Christmas for investors.
0.0355 BTC per ETH for now.

Merry Christmas, everyone.

No doubt Ethereum rising constantly and market is green/uptrend, hope so Ethereum will hit 0.04BTC this week.
I'm sure XRP is going to back and ethereum will overtake XRP, let's see what happen in last these days of 2018!
Merry Christmas 🎄

I doubt that we are currently in the uptrend. There are no fundamental reasons. According to the technical analysis, the same thing. For me, the last few days have been about buying presents before Christmas. People spend bonuses at the end of the year. We are waiting for January and February, there are big events that will affect the market.

People those had to spend money on Xmas gifts or new year have already done so. What can be reason to expect from people for shorting their assets now in coming days ? Absolutely no reason. Cryptocurrencies always move surprisingly when general sentiment is up it go down and when expectations are down the result is vise-versa.

It is hard to believe how fast it could get recover I bought some coins around $85 just a week ago and it helped to make nice profit my Xmas. Thanks to this community who is very supportive and showing their faith all the time long live ETH.

this is just a start eth is not yet recoverd. just a miner correction
eth price should be above 400$ and should be at number 2 on coinmarketcap
right now eth price is at 134$ and its stable soon eth price go more high
but in Christmas people could sell more eth for short term profit gain.

yes it could recover more but i think cyrpto will fall more for some time and the price rise from 85$ to above 130$ is temporary move.
this temporary move is only happened in top crypto currencies and some of them gains value above 50% like eth did
i coming days their is more chances of price down then price go up. its depend on the crypto traders mode
and right now people are trying to get short term profit and start selling again

I don't think they are mining at a loss in every country as some countries have very low energy prices.

Good point. China for example:

https://www.asiacryptotoday.com/chinese-mining-fud-manipulation-vs-the-real-situation/

So still in the green right?
You need TOTALLY FREE power in the rest of the world, to even try to compete with China.
But it is not only a matter of electricity.

Taking as a fact that Chinese ASIC manufacturers trash & upgrade their equipment every 6 months or so, and taking also into account that if you go for the latest & fastest BTC miner on the market ATM - EBIT E11++ 44TH/S, 45W/T, 10nm chip DW1228 - and forgetting about purchasing costs, we have: Delivery time is Feb 15, 2019.

http://miner.ebang.com.cn/goods-15.html

Hold on. Didn't we just read in the previous article that - & I quote: "Rigs have evolved from 100nm to 7nm which has led to huge increases in efficiency."  
Oh yes, here it is:
https://shop.bitmain.com/product/detail?pid=00020181107195820131prWuuVTy0738
Estimated shipping: Dec.20-31
And last but not least: "The Antminer S15 has just been confirmed to have an estimated hashrate of 28 TH/s and power consumption of 1596 W"
https://mineable.com/bitmain-just-announced-their-new-7nm-miners-antminer-s15-t15-overview-hashrate-profitability/
Total bollocks.

So, selling their outdated hardware, trashing the even older ones, whilst keeping the best ones for themselves & repeat.
Do the maths, China is the only TRUE profitable player in the Bitcoin/ASIC/mining industry. Always has been.

Better off trading (buying cheap of course), hodling & sparing us the hassle.

You gave a good overview and I agree with this for the most part. There are a few countries that may not be mining at a loss, but as you said the real power lies within China. Not really the best situation, but that's how Bitcoin works.

This may be a small party that whales want to give everyone yesterday. I think this is a sign that whales are returning very well and I believe that in 2019 things will get better and ETH prices will soon return to $ 1000 if you have confidence in ETH right now this point

Yes, ETH increased more than 70$ which many people who bought the coins at 90$ are already in profit. Many people were negative about ETH when the price went very low in the market.

We are waiting for January and February, there are big events that will affect the market.

Can you disclosing more about big events in January and February next year, please.
I am eagerly to get your updated information.
Thank you in advance for coming information.

as I know the big event that will be in January or in the near future :

[Saverenergy]

Unfortunately, this is not a bull run. For example, people buy coins for Christmas, but we see that more people make a small profit selling them.

It is only possible in bull run now everybody expecting this will happen in next year as just few days left. Current rise was looking like a bull trap and on this day we see some people cash out and now it again fell down.

[digitalblock]

The market has once again inflated artificially. It is too early to talk about $ 1000 Ethereum, it is not yet known how Ethereum will be updated.

Happy Christmas and a great upcoming new year
This Christmas would be great its not always about hype but we've having a great adoption for Crypto market. People received and spent their bitcoins. we are soon heading towards a digital future where people would enjoy holding their currency. There has been tough years for country  like Iran, Veninzuela and many in African countries where money has been badly performing and causing inflation issues which have made them to work more hours.. we have been battling inflation since many years its time for the world to adopt something better then fiat. I do believe it would be a difficult journey to ditch something that has been ruling since hundreds of years but we cannot keep up with the bankers currency which has been making people's life more difficult.  I hope we do understand what is the meaning behind decentralized money rather then treating it as a stock.
I wish everyone a great year 2019
