The digital currency market is recovering right now and I hope it will continue to grow until it reaches the highest possible value. You know, sometimes the digital currency market failing but if you look into the bright side this is an opportunity to others and many investors are happy with it because coins are very cheap and good to buy. If the market is going well, this is really good for those people who bought at the dips and sad for those people who can't buy of the current price because they don't want to regret buying if the market falls.

The new merit system is a "newbies-racist system". Everyone look at me like a "merit hunter in covetousness"
That's all my opinion.

None of newbies business, right?
First, I like the old rank system. Maybe I'll never reach Legendary rank, it's so hard today, but I can join a signature campaign.
"Why a signature campaign?" "You greed" "Explore the forum first, kid" blah blah - Sounds like I'm a dirty rat.
Then, practice in signature campaign, I read more, think more for every post, because "unmeaning, spam-post will not allowed", or face moderators by shitposts.
I've read a hundreds post per week, and try to reply them by my knowledge, in foreign language, that's my way to explore this forum and crypto. That's wrong way? Or I'll read a tons of post in silence like a ninja?
Back to main problem, while I learning about "how to be a legendary", someone takes off my chance to do anything. Now, every post from me will be accused of earn merit.
And yes,
I wonder, buy a account with Member or higher rank is a good idea?

The answer is : "Copper member is not an actual rank, it is something added to your rank. In order to be eligible for rewards on signature bounties, you have to be minimum Jr. Member." - from a bounty manager.
There is my opinion.

I'm afraid the new-newbies will dominate this forum to get one merit, back to their old rank Jr. Member and continue signature campaign.
Forum will full of new spam-topic, instead spam-post. That's terrible.
If signature campaigns only accept Member or higher, I think we will have a fresh forum.
What's your idea ?

Another way, the new-newbie will destroy this forum buy a ton of shit post to get one merit 

Ethereum's upcoming hard fork, Constantinople, will activate in a testing environment next month, core developers agreed on Friday.

As detailed by CoinDesk, Constantinople features changes designed to increase the platform's efficiency, alter its economic policy and delay the so-called "difficulty bomb," a piece of code meant to encourage the network to alter its core consensus algorithm.

Speaking in a bi-weekly video call, developers said the upgrade will activate around October 9 on a cross-client testnet, named Ropsten, which mimics the conditions of the ethereum network itself. However, due to the unpredictability of block confirmation times in the testing environment, an exact block number – the way most upgrades are timed within the blockchain space – for the testnet activation has yet to be finalized.

Similarly, the timing for activating Constantinople on ethereum's mainnet, or live blockchain, has yet to be fixed.

Speaking on the call, though, Ethereum Foundation communications officer Hudson Jameson tentatively suggested November or December for the upcoming code change.

Vitalik Buterin, ethereum's creator, was also on the call, and noted that changes resulting from the approach of the difficulty bomb code should not be perceptible for several months, meaning there is little urgency to get the Constantinople upgrade out.

"It's totally not urgent," Buterin said, adding: "We could probably have three months of safety and likely even more."

While the ethereum improvement proposals (EIPs) that are a part of the Constantinople upgrade have caused some debate – especially from miners who see their revenue decreasing with a pullback on the issuance of ether – overall the upgrade features minor technical changes.

Developers also discussed EIPs that may be included in a subsequent hard fork named Istanbul – currently planned for eight months after Constantinople executes.

For example, the ongoing dispute around whether ethereum should implement changes to its underlying proof-of-work algorithm to force ASICs — a type of mining hardware that many think causes centralization — off the network, was discussed. While no clear direction was confirmed, ethereum researcher Danny Ryan noted that work on Casper, the proposal for moving ethereum to a new consensus algorithm, is moving forward.

During the call, Ryan said:

    "The bones of the spec is really solidifying."

New updates can make ETH to the moon. Share your opinion  

Yes, I do. Because so many scam projects, and I don't know how to realize they're scam, so I put my trust in ICO Rating site

Don't worry, friend. Now ETH reached a better price, and I think ETH will back to 300$ soon.

Just three days, the price of ETH up to 220$  25% profit in only three days, so amzing.
But now is not too late to buy ETH, I think the price of ETH will to the moon 

After dark days, ETH going up. And I still believe ETH will reach 250$ 300$ soon.

If you sell 10 ETH at May 2018 to fiat, now you can buy 50 ETH 
Other way, some altcoins increased strongly than ETH, never too late to invest.

The governments have no reason to meddling cryptocurrency, a part of blockchain technology. It's not scam or bubble.

It's a good news. ETH can reach 300$ in this month, I hope so.
Almost of altcoins going down with ETH, so many people say crypto will die, but it's not true.

I think holding ETH at this time is a smart choice for long-term investment. ETH's price is too low, good time to invest 

Our trust in crytocurrency has been destroyed by so many scam ICOs  I have a reason to sold my ETH when the ETH dropped 200$.

I've no hope in ETH  Down down and down, from 800$ to 200$ on 4 months. Hope ETH will reach the good price 

ETH goes down from 300$ to 200$ for a week, it's really a sad news. I sold out my ETH to BTC and hope I did a right thing
