    Have a question on ETH / ETH2

    ETH & ETH2 are both shown on Coinbase, and have exactly the same price, obviously only ETH is "tradable" on there now.

    I dont have any ETH, but if i bought some, what happens when ETH2 goes live ?  are ETH and ETH2 just "merged" together  ?

    Pretty much, yeah. I need to read up on it but ETH 2.0 isn’t even guaranteed to be launched this year. 

    As a side note if you have no ETH right now, you should get some

    All the £££ i stuck in is tied up in coins at the minute, i refuse to sell anything at a loss ;-)   when ( hopefully) there is an uplift and i can turn a profit on them, will start concentrating more on BTC and ETH ( do already have small amount of BTC )

    Looks a good deal, unless you desperately need a tenner, could just leave it there for 5 years

    Every single bar/restaurant I go to these days, I end up in some kind of crypto chat. Happened to me last night and 95% it’s not driven by me.

    Pretty cool cause most are noobs asking if they should have bought dog coins but there are some people that know stuff too.

    In 10 years it will be like talking about banking

    That's a sign that you should get out of it.

    What other assets do you own? And what's the % split of your assets (ie, stocks 80%, BTC 10% etc)?

    Own a truckload of diff crypto assets but mainly stack BTC and ETH and good DeFI projects.

    Have some individual stocks but a fraction of the value that I have in crypto 

    Have a property in UK too for boring long term
