In my opinion this is a good time to purchase etherum before it rise even higher.
The news about the hardfork seems to be bringing a good news for the future of ethereum
we may buy ethereum at this moment, but my opinion we should take profit when snapshot for hardfork done.usually price dumped after snapshot finished.
That would be a good move, and hopefully the rise will be in a good number, so everyone who already feel a loss in the previous moment could at least getting a little profit to cover what they had lost during the bear market in 2018.
