After going to Metropolis, it will no longer be possible to run the ETH . He will procure himself. The news, which means that you need to buy ETH, so that he himself increases in the account himself. POS starts from 32 ETH on the account on their official wallet. The Ethereum team has planned the hardcore and release of Metropolis for September.

The recent price of Ethereum is $300 to $315 stable in a bracket. The price of past week was $270 to $280. A good recovery was initiated and the price moved up to 23.8% Fib the last decline level was $281. The 24 hours High-Low Volume of trade around $283 to $310. If we look at the upward trend there was a break above a connecting bearish trend line at $292 on 4 hours chart. The price of Ethereum is level at $290 as per moving average.
It show a positive up-trend soon the last decline from the $310 high to $281 low, which is a bullish sign. If the trend little down to correction it may be around $290 to $300. But still it will remain in a great contest for investors it si a right time to invest on Ethereum.

The hard-core in the Ethereum network and the implementation of a new version of the software called Metropolis are scheduled for the end of September this year. This was reported in the social network Steemit one of the developers Ethereum. As noted, the new version of the software will expand the capabilities of the Ethereum network and will be an important intermediate step in the process of transition from the proof-of-work algorithm to proof-of-stake.
In particular, Metropolis will serve as the basis for the introduction of the so-called zk-SNARKs - cryptographic tools underlying Zcash, which will make possible completely anonymous transactions on the Ethereum network.
The peculiarity of zk-SNARKs is that they prove the execution of calculations for some input data, without revealing them. In Zcash, this evidence is used to verify transactions while maintaining user privacy. A new opportunity will appear thanks to Vitalik Buterin's close cooperation with Zcash CEO Zuko Wilksos.
The blog also says that the new version will make the process of programming smart contracts more simple, and also provides for various security improvements. In addition to the above innovations, Metropolis includes the so-called "complexity bomb", which provides an exponential slowdown of the network, making the process of mining more resource-intensive. "Bomb of complexity" marks the so-called "Ice Age" and is an intermediate stage for the transition from the proof-of-work algorithm to the proof-of-stake.
Some time after the release of Metropolis, there will be an even larger upgrade of the Ethereum ecosystem called Serenity, which involves significant improvements in the protocol and scalability of the network.
Let me remind you that the Creator of the Ethereum ecosystem Vitalik Buterin and one of the creators of the Lightning Network Joseph Poon are working on the Plasma platform for scalable stand-alone smart contracts. About this Buterin himself said in his Twitter.
According to the developers, Plasma will increase the performance of smart contracts to several billion operations per second. Due to this, the blocking company will be able to assume the implementation of a significant part of the financial operations in the world. Smart contracts on Plasma platform are stimulated for permanent autonomous work through commission fees for the transaction.
"Plasma allows continuous operation in decentralized applications and can be used as an alternative to centralized servers for storing and exchanging large amounts of data," the project's whitepaper says.
