Many are speculating that the recent rise in price for Ethereum has to do with the anticipation of this new release.
I think that has more to do with Google search trends. Price chart for Ether:
Google trend chart for Ethereum over same period:
Ethereum price rises - news talks about Ethereum - people search for Ethereum in google - people invest in Ethereum - Ethereum price rises
And the cycle continues.
Is google search trend anticipating the Ether price trend or is it the other way around?
