Ether nodes state that about 63.2% of the nodes have tweaked and ready to go live with the changes done. However, 40% are slow, and the tweaking of their protocols are not complete yet. Over the past three months, there has been a drop of nearly 20% due to the difficulty creeping in, eventually affecting mining. Ethereum miners find block discovery difficult. Several miners have wound up their operations, waiting for favorable conditions for services.
With mining getting difficult, ETH prices falling is discouraging. The ETH price went down from $200 to $131.31. Smaller recoveries do not help save significant sliding trend.
