Update EOS and Ethereum (ETH), is 2019 their year?

Today we examine closely EOS and Ethereum (ETH).

The cryptocurrency market corrected again after strong gains in the early days of the new year. The total capitalization of the cryptocurrency is just under $ 130 billion. A year ago, market capitalization was just over $ 750 billion. The market collapsed in January 2017 and has continued to slip throughout the year. In mid-April and the beginning of May, the market began to correct and saw substantial gains, only to correct and reduce again.

EOS

EOS remains the fifth largest cryptocurrency by total market capitalization. The blockchain project is managed by Block.one. Last year, Block.one held the EOS Global Hackathon, which gave a cash prize for building the EOS blockchain.

It seems that the marathon was considered a success, thanks to the last tweets of the company. Despite the cryptographic market crisis in 2017 and job losses across the board, Block.one is hiring in 2019.

Many major blockchain projects and press agencies have had to cut jobs in 2018 due to lack of interest and money paid in the sector. It seems that EOS is going strong, despite the decline.

According to CoinMarketCap, EOS is currently trading at $ 2.67 per share, up 0.11% in 24 hours.

Ethereum (ETH)

Ethereum had a good run last week and regained its second cryptocurrency in terms of total capitalization once again. ETH is more than 11% for the week.

Vitalik Buterin has recently tweeted his views on the government and the world, but has not given updates on Ethereum. However, just before Christmas, the co-founder of Ethereum recalled the crypto community of this:

Reminder: exists.https: //t.co/re5atieNKl

Casper is an important progression in Ethereum, so a positive move in any case. The co-founder has never dealt with the price of ETH and has always focused on technology. The test implementation of the stake on the Ethereum blockchain began in June 2018 and the developers are still on the job.

According to CoinMarketCap, ETH is currently trading at $ 150 per coin, + 0.91%.

Will 2019 be a very good year for EOS and Ethereum (ETH)? We'll see!
