Going by multiple news channels, this "Constantinople" fork/upgrade has been postponed to next week due to a security hole discovery. That is the reason for today's ETH selloff. Hope to see it go smooth next week.
I never heard anymore after the recent news about of postponement, I was excited before but now nothing anymore, but I still have the faith that after the upgrade it could be the reason to soar its price value.
Not excited anymore cause it won't give a huge effect on the market, it is just an upgrade to help out from bugs and security reasons. We've undergo that system upgrade before and it won't make help to increase the market but instead, it bring down the price cause some people worried about the after the upgrades.
Yes, it is postpone and I don't hear any pronouncement about new schedule. It might be launch or not.
Of course it does have a huge impact on the price of eth . basically the value can pumped up because people will tend to buy more eth because they wanna get more forked coins . the same happend to btc forks were both btc and bch got an instant increase .
Postponed or not , the value of cryptos including eth can still recover in the future because other good events did not happened yet .
