The latest rumour going around about the Ethereum merge is a dump after, you are wrong if you are one of them, Ethereum going proof of stake and fixing the high gas fee have automatically turn this project into a GOLD, every whales will want to stake and enjoy the rewards, even if a dump happens after the so called fork it won't last.
But in fact, Ethereum dumps after the Ethereum merger. Of course this is not only the effect of the merger of Ethereum but because the price of Bitcoin also experienced a dump. But the Ethereum merger does not show the number of requests to be more. Right now the price of Ethereum is really dropping. A PoS system that doesn't provide the best solution for Ethereum miners at the moment.
