delay: Ethereum Merge: release date, delay, and price prediction

Advertiser

What is your general opinion about the Merge itself?

Merge is mainnet with the beacon chain proof of stake system. This will mark the end of proof of work for Ethereum and the full transition. This is planned to precede the roll out of shard chains.

How do you feel about the release date - is it going to be delayed?

I feel is good for Ethereum to minimaize delayed transaction because developer are focusing their efforts on transaction, and minimizing additional features that could delay this goal.

What is your price target for ETH after the merge?

I am looking plans include a post merge " Cleanup" Upgrade to address these features, which is expected to happen very soon after the Merge Completed. My price prediction for ETH $5000 going to up.

Are you using L2 (Arbitrum) already? If not, are you planning to do so after the Merge? Elaborate.

I have started using L2 (Arbitrum) In metamask because it makes transactions very easy and low for gas fees. L2 Arbitrum for the future Ethereum transactions, like some crypto's have started using it.

What is your general opinion about the Merge itself?

Ethereum 2.0 will make more crypto users to fall in ETH projects, gas fees will help to fix this problems. Also it will help ETH to stay in his prime and hype, so other projects, etc Sol cant get ahead of him

How do you feel about the release date - is it going to be delayed?

I think date will be delayed for sure as usually. I want it to be released as fast as they can but still think there will be delay. Hope there wont be this problems and we will see it as fast as possible

What is your price target for ETH after the merge?

I think it will go near 5000 USD not more, but the erc20 tokens and eth NFT projects will pump too, I'm sure about that. So hope 2.0 wont let us wait much

Are you using L2 (Arbitrum) already? If not, are you planning to do so after the Merge? Elaborate.

I used L2 arbitrum first time on experty when I tried to withdraw WIS and it went so easy and comfortable so good experience, but if 2.0 will reduce gas fees, I dont think I will use arbitrum again

Aspirational Whale

What is your general opinion about the Merge itself?

i am very pleased to know that ETH is going to Proof of Stake. More importantly, the facts that ETH will see an increase to 100,000 transactions per second (TPS) is HUGE! this sets the stage for a new world in terms of smart contracts, nft's and fees.

How do you feel about the release date - is it going to be delayed?

I have seen a phasing in taking effect. Since there is so much involved involved with so many users, smart contracts, etc, i do expect a further delay to Q3 - into the summer and possibly even the fall.

What is your price target for ETH after the merge?

As the co-leader of the Crypto space and the leader of smart contracts, i am expecting a 6x on ETH. This of course will take time and be subject to regulatory developments. Short term, i am looking at new all-time highs and a price target of $7,726 by year end.

Are you using L2 (Arbitrum) already? If not, are you planning to do so after the Merge? Elaborate.

Since i am a coin holder and yield farmer, i have not yet used Arbitrum. I have added it to my Metamask wallet and am prepared to benefit from using it on Uniswap at this point.

What is your general opinion about the Merge itself?

The merge will make ETH environmental friendly because of moving away from proof of work to proof of stake. So the merge will do away with atleast 99.5% + energy required to mine it and will be welcomed and easy adopted in the EU region hence the growth in demand of the ETH coin.

How do you feel about the release date - is it going to be delayed?

The upgrade started a long time enough and only one step into having a staking currency by merging with beacon chain. It won't delay any longer.

What is your price target for ETH after the merge?

The price of ETH would run from the current $3500 to $10,000 then we will witness a correction and price stability after an uptrend long run around $6000.

Are you using L2 (Arbitrum) already? If not, are you planning to do so after the Merge? Elaborate.

I am already using L2 (Arbitrum) because it's cheaper and of course reliable than Eth mainnet. The building on Eth mainnet by dapps made the price of gas fees rampantly high thus the migration to layer 2 was worth it.

Crypto Enthusiast

What is your general opinion about the Merge itself?

Ethereum 2.0 Merge will improve Ethereum network speed of transactions and will also reduce the high cost of transactions. Also will move to POS from POW.

How do you feel about the release date - is it going to be delayed?

They have been delays before. I hope this doesn't delay but with this huge change and complications of technology, it may get delayed further .

What is your price target for ETH after the merge?

My price target for ETH after the merge is that it should cross 5000$ and on the long term it can even go above or around 10000$ but will all depend how soon this happens.

Are you using L2 (Arbitrum) already? If not, are you planning to do so after the Merge? Elaborate.

I am not sure about L2 arbitrum and have never used it before. Will have to learn about it more before thinking to use it. There are so many L2 already now

What is your general opinion about the Merge itself?

It is a good decision, looking at the energy requirements for the Proof of Work. The delay is creating a lot of uncertainty in the market. But it will settle.

How do you feel about the release date - is it going to be delayed?

I think the chances of it getting delayed are high, looking at the complexity of the existing network. Stability is a major concern rather than timely release.

What is your price target for ETH after the merge?

The merge will give a good boost to the Ethereum community. Existing miners will hold as much as possible ETH for staking creating a market scarcity and end result as a higher ETH price. I think it can rise by 40% to its current price.

Are you using L2 (Arbitrum) already? If not, are you planning to do so after the Merge? Elaborate.

No, not using L2 Arbitrum right now. But it seems like n interesting implementation reducing transaction costs for the Dapps will certainly make use of it after Merge.

Business Analyst

What is your general opinion about the Merge itself?

Even without the Ethereum merge happens in no time soon. Many Layer2 solutions did quite better than Layer1 Ethereum itself. The merge sounds like a bubble for me as Vitalik also commented NFTs like a bubble.

How do you feel about the release date - is it going to be delayed?

I'm pretty sure the delay does not mean anything for the layer2 maximalists. Many great projects evolved enormously. Any delay about the merge will reflect the layer2 project much better.

What is your price target for ETH after the merge?

I think it will decrease so bad with the BTC halving is getting every day. So, if we assume bull-run will get ETH back to $4K levels, the merge would only increase 10-12% percent from the bull market levels. Then with the market crash, I'm sure to see $1.9K prices levels again.

Are you using L2 (Arbitrum) already? If not, are you planning to do so after the Merge? Elaborate.

I'm super to okay to use Arbitrum with or without the merge takes part. Low fees got me already. It is fast but takes lots of confirmations from the nodes for a transaction issue needs to be solved.

What is your general opinion about the Merge itself?

This could be a great opportunitie for the future of cryptocurrencies in general and also for gas costs, CO2 footprint and collective acceptance overall

How do you feel about the release date - is it going to be delayed?

Better be safe than sorry. Everyone gets to be prepared in time and get this merge done without any hassle or drawbacks. So if there's a delay, it'll be acceptabele.

What is your price target for ETH after the merge?

Basically there's a bit more demand and the price could rise up to 10 percent, however a major rise isn't to be expected at a short term after implementation.

Are you using L2 (Arbitrum) already? If not, are you planning to do so after the Merge? Elaborate.

Some of my assets are waiting for the release of L2, because gas prices aren't in no way in line with the value of the assets. Microcredits will be more commonly available.

Computer Technician

What is your general opinion about the Merge itself?

Merge is a very good project especially in terms of transactions. Where transactions are more transparent and tight, of course, the security is getting better.

How do you feel about the release date - is it going to be delayed?

In the case of some projects there may be delays. But it's a common thing. But if there is no delay, then I really appreciate the teams that are in it.

What is your price target for ETH after the merge?

From the project that has been described. It is quite difficult to predict the price. I predict the price is around 4000 $ for the maximum scale. and 10$ minimum scale.

Are you using L2 (Arbitrum) already? If not, are you planning to do so after the Merge? Elaborate.

I have observed and used the arbitrum but not in detail. I plan to focus on using arbitrum and some of the projects in it. I don't think it's too late to jump in and use it.
