Last year ethereum also experienced a decline as it is now, but to my knowledge does the price not fall as badly as this? how could this happen? what is behind it?

why is it that what I know is actually increasing from a number of users who are increasingly using ETH because it is easier to get than bitcoin or even other coins.

should it be if indeed more and more users then ethereum will be a bone of contention and the price should increase?

I am afraid that ethereum will fall and it's hard to get up, can you imagine smartcontract based ERC20 altcoins falling as ethereum prices drop

The entire market is dropping, not just Ethereum, sure Ethereum might have taken a BIG loss, but it's definitely nothing compared to what some other cryptocurrencies have experienced lately. Looking back in the timeline of Ethereum, it looks like there has been several times it has dropped more than 70% and then recovered, it's just a waiting game to see when it will happen again.

maybe because of the issue of the decline in eth prices which will drop dramatically so that people are not interested in investing

What's the probkem with eth. Since last week the price continue to down under 200. Will eth under 100  or the end of eth. Seem the gas price will matter in the near future together with inflation

I hope that ethereum will increase rapidly again, I realize that it is not only ethereum that has decreased, I just reflected on the price situation last year, the price did not fall as badly as it is now. I know I have to wait, even for a long time.  :(

It seems inevitable there is going to be another dip soon on etherum ,it's the only one out of the first fifteen coins on the red now ,no idea how low will go but we will soon see if investors continue being interested on the etherum network or by contrary find more appealing Eos ,neo ...

All market is at its lowest point not only ethereum, last year ethereum touch $140 in these days so hope soon it will again go up as BTC  will start rising.

is this one of the reasons why some ERC20 smartcontract based ICO projects delay the distribution of their tokens to investors and bounty hunters?

Ethereum has dropped so much like this before and recovered but there is something that we should notice and is that people are begin to understand the crypto space so i believe that Eth will recover with more sophisticated investors than newbies

I know to investors usually remain distributed and that delay only on bounty hunter advance to ico's new resolve their coin/token sales, but now many market conditions with ico who intentionally delay to open exchange for the token/coin them because it is

big tightening what happened? What bad news causes the price of all crypto currencies to fall like this. which I know is only an ETF problem, and it doesn't seem to be a problem that is too heavy

that could be like that dude.current condition in market make developers team postponed distributin token for investors and bounty hunter.this action actually to protect investor from dumping token in market.

Very sad when I take a look at how wherein is falling together with the other coins. I nearly run into anaphylactic shock when saw wherein below $200

yes, I understand, so the development teams are afraid to disappoint investors who buy their token prices with high ethereum prices and distribute tokens in low price

all of them were affected by the collapse of ethereum, the fall of ethereum prices was very unexpected and beyond predictions. erc20 token prices, ico investors, bounty hunters, eth holders and erc20 are victims of the current market situation. panic happened and now we are confused whether ethereum can recover?

I am not too please that ETH keeps going down despite been majorly use in daily transaction. I really can't tell why we should be seeing a low price of ETH as we have now. If this continues, I may take a second thought about the suppose queen of altcoins.

Why nobody asks how is happen that Ethereum price is over then 100$? But all ask why Etherium is falling so fast. It is cryptomarket and price is growing and falling very fast always. It is common thing.

not only ETH have a lowest price, almost altcoin has got lowest price, Bitcoin is one of them, and everyone so sad about this.
but i think they will comeback in the last of this year, hope this will be soon

everything goes beyond predictions, I think the ETH can stay above $ 250 even though the market is falling and realizing in the past year really hope there will be a drastic increase in the end of this year

In comparison with other projects that offer their own smart contracts for ICO, Ethereum still remains above all others. The main problem of reducing the popularity and cost of Ethereum remains the foggy future of the ICO itself. I think that all the developers and Vitaliy Buterin, including, will only please if Ethereum will hide from the general attention and the project team will have more time for further improvements to Ethereum. Buterin himself often stated it publicly. And when there will be good news about the resumption of the work of ICO projects, Ethereum will return to life without help from outside!

personally, I believe that ETH in its current view will not survive, like all coins on POW. If ETH will switch to POS, then there is a chance.

ICOs are selling their eth to stay afloat, many of them are struggling. This will lead to a further decline in Ethereum prices in my opinion. Could easily go down another 50% if the sell off continues. Better to wait before buying more eth, unless the sell off ends.

I will agree since this is the worst crashed ever of ethereum despite of the popularity rating , If we can recall the price last June which the price was reached closed to $700 then within a span of three months it was declined to less than $200 .

I don't think anyone can predict exactly the price of Ethereun now. It might go lower or may start the bull run from here. But all I know is better days are ahead.

Ethereum is indeed at a very low price but I have experienced more ups and downs since I am into cryptocurrency and I do believe it will go up again

This one of the largest drop we have have experienced in a while, with almost always cryptocurrencies dropping 70-80%.
We have had previous huge dips, as BTC has lost around 87% of its value and still recovered. So hopefully we would also recover from this dump.

And the reason is because everyone said to expect growth. negative news - begins to increase.

Crypto market is known for its volatility. Setting aside scam and fraud, one can reap huge rewards from entering at times of dips like this. Be greedy when everyone is fearful, be fearful when everyone is greedy.

It's hard to predict any specific reason behind ETH dump, one reason could be that I bought it  ;D
I have a history of buying at wrong times, bought LTC and it dumped hard  :P

One reason is that bitmex opened the leverage trading on there platform for ETH, and in 1 month time only, it got dumped by more than 57%
Another reason which I think is that ETH is not making any technical advancements and still stuck to where they were six months back. No real performance improvement have costed them.

I remember how I bought first Ethereum at 160 usd more than a year ago. I think even price of 200 usd is very high level and it could go deeper. Maybe to 100 usd maybe even less than 100 - nobody knows this.

Recently we have seen the decline in the whole market, both on Ethereum. Especially Ethereum is experiencing very serious loss of value and is constantly looking for a bottom spot. I think that the main reason for this is the explanations of Vitalik Buterin in the founding partners of Ethereum. I do not know if I'm making such a statement with a trap purpose or if I really lost confidence in this technology, but it is an unquestionable fact that every word has a negative effect on the market. To comment on the price level, I can not say for certain that we will be able to decline for a while but at which bottom point this drop point will end, but it is worth noting that there is a possibility of a serious blow. For that reason, we must be very careful when using Ethereum for trade purposes, and we have to act with every possibility.

The market is a concern and this makes the altcoin go down as well as eth which is expected to be good and rising prices but the reality has a rate similar to Dash.

The fall in ethereum prices had a major impact on the crypto world, the decline in ethereum prices was very unpredictable and exceeded predictions. there are so many losses from this situation and the price of the erc20 tokens, ico investors, prize hunters, ethereum holders and erc20 are victims of the current market situation. panic happened and now we can only hope ethereum to recover.

Well, it depends which cryptos are we talking about. Btc is now about 30% of ath, eos is 25%, monero is 22%, ltc is about 15%... Coins' prices differ a lot, as you can see. Not many of the good ones lost as much as ethereum did. Some lost more, some lost less. But its price does look extremely terrible. I realy believed it can't be worth less than $300. The market is bleding and people keep pushing their funds it btc, which is not very helpful anyway. We have to wait this time out, I am sure the market will regulate itself and make the prices more reasonable than they are now.

Bubble burst already (joke) but Vitalik already say some words about even on his own project.No more 1000x multipliers if I were to ask if I would buy ETH then I would wait up for this year for the most possible bottom price.We might see $100 ETH once again but no one really knows since words can really be just fuds or just a strategy, no on really knows. Not only ETH do suffer dump but all coins in the market as of now.

Indeed, since 2018 there has been a decline in ethereum prices from month to month, and the price has declined due to many factors, one of which is inflation, the lack of interest in the price of ethereum, the price of 2 million 1 ethereum is the lowest price.

It seems to me that the reason for such a serious drop in the price of the ethereum lies in the large number of scams of projects that were conducted on its platform. And now these scammers just started selling the ethereum.

I think that really does not matter, I would buy more ethereum as it goes lower hard, selling it is nonsense for long term holders it is the best coin one can hold after bitcoin.

There are many reasons behind the drop in Ethereum prices. The first and foremost reason is the decline of the ICOs. Too many of the ICOs are turning to be scams and it has negatively affected the ETH exchange rates.

Each year are different, and can't be repeated. As in 2017 we have had a crazy growth and surely in 2018 it will not be repeated. The price of ETH falling as it is now is out of control and predicted by everyone it makes many panic and panic sell makes the situation worse

For the last time Ethereum was below $ 200 in June last year. But now I have no idea what's going on with the market. The market has suffered quite a lot of losses, not even in the last weeks, but months. If it goes on like that it will not be a pleasant situation.

It's the fact that after listing on Bitmex, ETH's prices have fallen so far, the amount of shorts is too large on Bitmex, as well as sales from ICOs and miners, making ETH very difficult to rebound.

what is behind it?
A lot much of FUD everyday on social media that ETH is going back to 2 digits.
Fall of ICO Markets
Delay in Casper and POS.
However, I am still a strong believer in ETH and in this time I am just accumulating as much as I could.

It is very strange why such a price for an etherium is such an impression that it is deliberately dumping. It is based on a reasonable contract. Maybe someone is preparing him for a replacement?

there are too many reason why the price is going down but i dont care about it.
i got my orders at 180 USD and 185USD each... i will buy and wait for the pump soon.
I believe in the capability of ETH To go up the price anytime once the problem got settled.

I think these are the crooks who drained your ether at any price in order to get the dollars and not at all interested in the development of the market. We have to endure it all and make we can nothing. I believe in restoring the price of Etherium, he unjustly suffered.

Ethereum experience what Bitcoin experience from the past when it is on start up. The fact that Ethereum already experience far greater obstacle when they announce for a fork with Ethereum and Ethereum Classic. This situation is a normal process of all altcoins.

Yes, the price of the airwaves is very low. It's kind of weird and scary. Will the ether soon disappear? Now you do not know what to expect from the crypto market.

January last year ETH price was $9 and went up to almost $1400. Now is around $200 and still declining. The reason for this drop is panic selling from ICO funds plus the whole market situation.
Ethereum will recover for sure but it will take time.

I'm too but just try to put some of my ethereum portfolio in another promising coin just like bitcoin. Bitcoin could become the real reason why a lot of people are changing their ethereum to the bitcoin. As far as i understand about in fact whole of crypto are getting big dump and not only ethereum.

I guess it shouldn't be a problem, as Ethereum first of all is a platform for crowdfunding, so it was always obvious that collected ETH will always be sold by projects after the end of their ICOs, not held. And why do you think that only scam projects sell? Legit ones also have to pay salaries and buy equipement, so they also need fiat.

$ 9? Is it true? it takes a long time to get to the price of $ 1400, if now the price is under $ 200 and you believe the price will improve how long will the price recover?

I am scared of so low price now, hope it's the bottom of it

In fact, the price of Ethereum in the past has been rising, and this year's Ethereum price has really fallen sharply, and the reason for this decline is because ICO is losing investors!

As far as I am concerned. Last year also experienced a fall. It's not that serious. This year's decline is mainly the bear market. In addition.Many project teams collected ETH before. Most of them are selling now. In exchange for cash to support project development.

Market drops usually hit ETH pretty hard, harder than BTC.
However, bullruns are usually more powerful on it, aswell.

Other reasons might be tha amount of trash ICOs that exist.

Ethereum is the worst hit coin among the top 10 in the coinmarket as a result of this blood bath. I suspect the rivalry of other platforms of Waves and Neo must have contributed to this steady decline in Ethereum price.

Agreed and it's true that in 2017, ETH was more volatile than 2018. If we consider September 01- September 15, in 2018, the price is quite stable. There was a significant drop in 2017 while in 2018, $150 seems to be a good support zone for now. So, I don't see anything to panic.

it is not eth that are in decline but all crypto. it is okay to worry but don't do it all the time. there different kinds of reasons affecting the market and it is not a good thing. we should positive as it will recover someday.

The exact cost of course no one can know, the market is too heavily manipulated. But there are opinions of competent people that the bottom of the Ethereum is within $100 - $ 130

The price of ETH fell last year, not as serious as this year. The market will not be the same every year.

Right now in a bear market, the price of ether lane fell very much. I still believe that ethereum has great potential for development. We can come in at a time like this and get big returns.

That situation is normal only in crypro world sometimes the price goes up and sometimes the price goes down also and if you know that trick you buy more and hold for long term when the price deep down and sell it when the price goes up again.

All crypto is down, why should you worry?
Eth has indeed experienced a decline and I think it's natural and doesn't worry, so the Eth community is increasing and surely it will also have better value. If it rises sharply, does anyone ask this?

Vitalik is betraying the money that is his founder. Even Vitalik said Ethereum's blockchain is not well. The announcement of Ethereum 2.0 was made by DEV team. If it succeed, it will continue its own way. Otherwise, there is a big problem for all of us.

There is not the end of the falling and it is very scaring thing. ETH is very unreliable not and this weak position on the market of this altcoin is not suitable for the work.

This is already too much for a normal dip. I think this event maybe a sign which is cryptocurrency is having a huge crisis or hurdles that is needed to be  overcome.

I think that the ether will definitely return. And will continue to grow and grow up. Do not despair, everything will be fine.

Volatility of Ether price this year is not so great, but the influence of bears on its price is aggravated by an ever increasing emission. Every 15-20 seconds there are 3 new Ethers appear. In the absence of big activity in ICO market, this negatively affects its price.

We have got the 1k USD and more value dump we are seeing in the marketplace now. If you like to invest on the Ethereum this is the perfect time to make your first and random investment on ethereum. It is really perfect time in the market and more over I have seen ETH value was under the 200 USD this week.

May be we may find the bitcoin value can grow better than anytime and ethereum will be growth as a part at all.

Don't Worry man Q4 of every year is quite good for cryptocurrency market and last year low of ethereum is $145 and this year it will never break its last low and expected high of ethereum is $1500 at the end of this year

OP, these are some of the questions we should stop asking. As a matter of fact, these questions like " what is happening" will continue to drive the price down and cause more panic. We should be optimistic that ethereum will rise again. It is not yet the end of the road, rather it is a time of correction.

I am scared of Ethereum at the current state, it is also dragging other erc20 tokens down with it. It has never been this low, from 1400$ highs

I won't say this is the perfect time to invest in Ethereum because the coin is having a problem which was also confirmed  by the CEO and the team involve are yet to fix it. Thefefore, the fate of Ethereum rely on the problem and if any investor have by chance invested into Ethereum such investor should also invest into NEO either.

Last year? no there's no decline for ETH and its even one of the best year's for it.

Starting from $7.98 at the beginning of 2017 and ended by $712 by December and reached nearly $1,400 by January this year.

maybe what happens behind this lack of investor interest to invest in ICO causes the ETH price to be low like this.
I hope this problem can be resolved and the ETH can increase its value again.

There is manipulation going on massively with this market but especially Ethereum.  I have been buying each time it dips little by little.  It's not as if Ethereum is no longer the most used coin and running the entire token market.  This prices is a godsend for buyers. 

This is the market's weak discount trend, by last time the market has grown too hot. Most, alcoin are discounted. This cycle will soon pass, in 2019 may be the year of the booming electronic money market

Ethereum is currently in an alarming condition, but I think this is indeed an annual cycle, going up and down must occur every year, until when this ends no one knows because it is difficult to predict but we must remain confident ethereum immediately rise and lead again

It's so funny you morons still haven't figured out it was a giant ponzi scheme.

some panic people see Ethereum prices can falling as badly as this because maybe  market prices are getting weaker. some people believe that this is only temporary and in the following year Ethereum's price will rise again. I think no need to think about the current market price because it's better buy Ethereum as much as possible when the price drops.

The price of Ethereum has gradually declined from entry to this year, and the decline has been very large. Now the price of Ethereum is less than 200 US dollars, which has caused many investors to lose a lot, but I think the price of Ethereum will be again Falling.

Prepare yourself to face the crypto world, if you are ready with all the risks then you will not complain about the current price of Eth.
Don't look back but look at the future, then you will be able to deal with all market prices, Eth is being priced and it's only natural, this panic will be a big advantage for old investors.

Isnt it better to buy into ETH when it has atleast started bouncing? so that we some kind of change atleast, it feels strange to buy in before it even have started its "bounce", if it even will bounce.

in my opinion the development of the price and value of crypto currencies depends on access to buying and trading and prices can be quickly affected by bad news and it has become a risk in investing

Many crypto users ask the same thing as you, why can the ETH price be very low as it is today, and your question will be very difficult to answer because it is too difficult to predict what causes eth prices to drop. The thing we have to do right now is to hold back because it's the wisest thing to do rather than ask something that other people don't know the answer to.

then sell when the price goes up again ... don't just the opposite, when the price is low you sell all your assets then when the price is high you buy and invest all your money.

at this very cheap price, at least we can try our luck by investing in ethereum, because at this moment the ethereum price is no longer as expensive as it used to be so we have the chance to get a profit

I think mostly because of the whole market sentiment.
The main reason is bitcoin. It is having a bad year this year. That brings the whole market along. When bitcoin goes down by 10%, ETH and other altcoin could go down 20%. And the price goes down compoundly that way.

Bitter truth that ETH and other altcoins are drowning but this is not the end it's a good opportunity for the investors to buy more coins as you can to double your investment. When the market starts booming then it's all yours. Patience prevails let's hope for the best. Waiting for my day.

That is indeed time to wait in a matter of time until all the cryptocurency bounce again.
Cause this kind of things isn't happened just once, it already many times that the price fluctuating like this.

I am entrenched in Etherium now, but I am really considering investing in Cardano.  Maybe just caught up in the hype being made by CEO, but the claims made by him if even remotley possible is worth a look

Yes, this is true, Ethereum is currently very drastic, we cannot do anything about it, but we must remain optimistic for ethereum to rise again, hopefully this will happen in the near future

Since i joined the Blockchain Technology, this is the lowest price of ether i have seen. But i am still optimistic that ether will rise any.

This situation can't explain by anyone, this is a sudden drop with this great coin, but we have to believe on this technology. ETH will grow more in the next year, let's be confident about that so we can have a greater future. ETH will not die totally, this happen last year and we will see the rise again.

I am expecting ETH price go to $100 mark, that I doubt it will, so I can bag a big bag for me.
But I heard that the miner will be even at $150, so that should be the lowest point, other wise, miners will stop the work of maintaining network.
By the way, I saw some change on the code recently on ETH, dont know what its up to.

when more and more ico become to a scam project. new investor can't belive in the new project and no invest in any ico. That why the price of ethereum down and down more everyday. Hard to know what is the lowest price of ethereum because if i know it, i will never tell to anybody. haha. i will buy more and more if that is a lowest price.  Belive me, mate. The price of the ethereum can lower than today, i think it down to 150 before recovery.

Ethereum prices are really very low at the moment, I don't know the price changes that occurred in Ethereum are manipulation or not, but whatever the reason is, I think you are right, God gave the situation and ethereum prices like this for buyers to get cheap ETH prices

We are still reaping the fruits of the December rise in bitcoin prices. A large volatility with a price increase pr calls for the same large price falls. However, soon everything will return to normal, the Crypto currency again stabilizes. Now there is no real reason for the further decline of the market, the market should already rise.
Ethereum, no matter how low it will now fall, it will vseravno well rise in the future in the price.

It's manipulation but there was a lot of FUD and disbelief on it that makes the price of ethereum even worst, a lot of people have been talking about this and it seems like they are no aware about what has already happened ethereum right now consider about the fact that this has made so many people being scared to see the price of their portfolios right now.

The price of the falling ethereum has confused our heads, obviously there is no obvious reason but this is happening. The price of etherum, which moves in parallel with the long time bitcoin is constantly declining.

The reason is because investors not like or interested anymore to participate in icos, so it make ethereum has less demand + too many bad news about cryptocurrency make the price of ethereum drop so bad.

There's a general drop in the value of most cryptocurrency, I can't remember ethereum dropping to this extent last year. There's also speculation that the reduction in value will continue and it will trade at about $100. Its quite scary, but I still expect the price to fall.

Why does the confusion start when it is clear that when the market falls it is the time to buy and not to sell . If their is no patience than forget about it and do not enter the crypto market as it can be dangerous for them self and also for others as in panic selling mode it will effect the price

I really wonder why the price of ethereum is so low now. The people are just selling in fud and dont ever think anything about the projects. For me ethereum is one of the best altcoins out there. It was the first one with a smart contracts plattform, and they are a lot of good projects who are build on it. So i think the actually fud will be over very fast.

I think after beating psy point under 200usd nothing cant stop falling their price.
I am not be surpriced if we see under 100usd, but this temporary

Yes, the price of Ethereum is very low. The price of Ethereum in the market last year has risen to 2,000 US dollars. This is a very high number, but the price of Ethereum in this year's market is very serious, now less than 200. Dollar, I think its price will fall.

I think ethereum will still experience a decline, due to bitcoin not touching the support point. But in my opinion, the current phase is the best phase to buy ethereum gradually.

It is difficult to say exactly what is happening with the market right now. But he is clearly not going to grow. I think the price will fall further for many coins

to work on customs as preference as supplying supports on preparing submission of option to goes on table with the market to gains on exchange as the decision to put with one as dispute on distributing risks on arrange with the modulation.

Prices go down but we should be able to use it to be able to invest. indeed now the price is down but we must be able to be smart in addressing this for an advantage

I can not say exactly but i think ethereum is at their lowest price because the whole crypto market is down even btc is also is their low levels so Ethereum is also very low with the effect of all coins.

Ether, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, fell to its lowest price of 2018 on Monday.At 16:50 UTC during Monday's trading session, the cryptocurrency fell below $300 dollars for the first time since November 12, 2017, according to CoinDesk's Ethereum Price Index (EPI).ETH was last seen trading at an average price of $ , marking a roughly 9.6 percent decline since the day's open.

there is a lot of speculation stating and from a variety of different people, some claim that this is a bad sign and this is the beginning of crypto destruction and crypto will die, but there are also those who claim that this is a market correction before the market recovery, whether speculative that will really happen

I think that many ICO have been dumping stored Ethereum into the market to retain some project funding. It couldn't have come at a worse time really and better management of collected funds along the way would have made this less of a problem. I am now buying a little Ethereum each week taking advantage of these low prices to build a small pot for the next leg up.

If you didn't buy Ethereum at the peak price or above $200 then you should be fine and suggesting to buy more right now. I'm planing to buy some when it drop to $150 then invest this to ICO potential project.

Yes... ETH is really low now. I think many people are selling out of panic. It is hard to say exactly if whales are manipulating the market or people panicking due to ETF news. Let's hope market recover soon.

maybe the price of Ethereum in the future will rise. it's because many Ethereum users now and many are using it for trading and investing.

yes, the current price is very severe and falls deep. this pattern is like what happened last year in the same few months when bitcoin was banned by China. try to learn again, I'm sure ethereum can grow back because I think this is part of manipulation.

The price of Ethereum has fallen to a low point. I think it can be purchased in small quantities now, because I am worried that the price of Ethereum will continue to fall, and now the entire cryptocurrency market is very unstable.

Very good buying price of cryptocurrencies. Ethereum costs little very much and all the rest. I now actively buy different cryptocurrency

You should believe that no matter what cryptocurrency, when it starts to fall wildly, it may fall to any price, even to zero, including Ethereum! When people start selling Ethereum, it won't have the lowest price, only the lower price!

the lowest price is always just above zero. Before that the ether still has a place to fall. But judging by the pace, this can happen very soon.

So far I only know that many people already leave crypto ( included ETH ) because they have faith crypto is temporary trend, soon it will gone. Some people keep buy and " hold " but they don't realize because they do ETH goes down because doesn't have buyer anymore. Which one is right I don't know but if you have ETH asset just cut loss and come back again next year, that is realistic action.

The very first reason for this fall is people's thoughts on ICO. People are used to hearing that most of the ICOs are a scam and ETH will not be used too much anymore. That's why people have got the tendency that ETH will be fallen soon and started to sell which has actually made the fall.

Another reason is the whole market is falling actually.

The falling price of bitcoin dragged down the altcoin prices like ethereum. Actually, this situation has often happened so it doesn't have to be thought about. Keep holding your coins until ethereum rises again.

 Its certainly the regulations which china has implemented on BTC trading and transactions in past week. If china which is one of the biggest market of bitcoin trading has been shut down momentarily by the government then certainly BTC market will be affected by this event and thats why ETH has faced such landslide fall in its value .

So true. Now is the lowest Ethereum decline since the last year. I think the main reason for this decline is the panic of the Ethereum holders because of the large number of coins falling. That is why Ethereum Users and traders sell their coins at low prices.

So far, after reaching it highest value, ethereum now seems to hit its lowest value and will continue to decrease even more. The whales arent yet finish in outmaneuvering and playing in the crypto market but ethereum will bounce back, you just have to hold on.

All to do with whales and those who are selling in panic are reducing the price. Rules and regulations also have a role to play in this.

I want to believe that this is the bottom, and now the price will start to rise, but the market surprises even more, because prices are falling every day. Nevertheless, we do not need to panic and sell our coins, because it does not lead to anything good.

Perhaps the price will fall a little more, but it is unlikely to drop below $ 100, of course we all hope that the price will stop falling and go up and I think this should happen soon.

some times finding reasons are not easy and not useful.we just have to keep working and buying more in every drop so we can get a good price average. it will be up again in no time.

i think it will keep dropping till $120 - $150. that would be the right time to buy.

Can't speculate on this. When eth was above 1000$ I predicted dump to 400 $, then I set up lowest point of 300$ and current 170 $ is something incredible. This fact will make me save part of funds in fiat for such unexpected situations

I dont think ETH is going less then 170 or 160$ this is the best time to invest or cry later because ETH gonna pump to 0.1 BTC or more exactly like DOGE did
all peoples that didn't baught DOGE at 36 and 37 satoshi because they was thinking it will crash more are crying now lol  ;D

You are right it is always good to hold a bit of your portfolio in FIAT to invest in coins like Ethereum when they are dipped out.

the fall is kind of hard but again we're still in a bear market so you can expect prices to be falling and projects that collects eth for their ico will dump fast so they can secure their money i don't know i read somewhere that a certain project got over 300M$ in ETH in december only to be worth now some 28M$ and also all the recent talks of scalabality and network congestion that didn't help the price so it's free falling now but i still think ETH is a project that's worth investing in.

These ICO devs are dumping their Eth this is the reason why we see a big decline of Ethereum, but this is not for long I believe there is strong buying support that will increase the chances of Ethereum not falling in the $130 level we'll see how down the price will be in the few weeks.

Projects who gathered funds via ETH blockchain are responsible for this , they are in panic mode and dumping for pennies.
The multi million sucesseful ICOs ar enow worth 5 times less and are seling out and running and getihing out of the game, investors are left with worthless tokens.

it can go easily to 150$.

that makes little sense when comparing with doge because with volume and total supply both are very different
I don't want to compare with other coins, but I believe enough with etherum right now is the right time to increase asset investment

Its a good time to invest in ethereum. Hope it goes deeper to buy cheap eth. I think the reason of eth fall is cause of fud and negative news but it wont last long and we will see the price will rise again in the next few days.

I am buying at the moment. 210 USD- 190USD and today 170USD. I am not sure these prices are the dip or not but I am sure that I am going to make some big profit.

I was expecting fluctuation in price of Ethereum but I don't expect Ethereum to continuously fall without any tangible reasons. Can Vitalik tell us what is going on.

Lowest price of 2018 is still way better than begining of 2017 its not that bad guys.

Ethereum price is extremely low but this is not the first time it is like this even though it didn't went lower than this last year but you will realise that it recovered and also it is going to also recover this year. The swinging in the market is the major attribute of the cryptocurrency market which is why it is said to be volatile. Be rest assured that it will surely bounce back

There is a high probability that we can see the etherium at $ 140, but I do not think that below, otherwise it will kill the mining. Probably now is the time to invest in the ether, however it is also very risky.

Last year, at the peak of the launch of the many ICO, the ethereum was very popular among investors, and today the situation is opposite, the investors are not interested in the ethereum and projects that collected Ethereum last year today selling it. The situation is banal: the supply is great and there is no demand.

Yes you are right, but i think not only eth's price but also btc and most of altcoins's price in the red zone and the value is decrease. Absolutely the price of eth today is make me shock because still goes down and reach $172 per coin. To increase the value of this coins, we must hold or invest in eth and hopefully the price will be increase in the end of the year and we can earn many advantages from that.

This is the cycle of each coin, up and down again. When eth reaches $ 1400, that's a huge fomo price.
And now that Ethereum has encountered problems, prices will fall back to its true value

ETH keeps getting low along with other cryptos.
A similar thing happened with bitcoin in 2013, and I think ETH should go up just like 2013.

After getting a bull run you will need a bearish market so that you can have another Bull Run.  ;D

Yes, now ethereum is experiencing the lowest price and it must be a price that causes a huge loss to ethereum, as well as other altcoins they have also experienced a large decline, so we just need to wait for the ethereum value to recover.

Some experts say that the price of Ethereum will be under $ 100. Although we are very utopian at first, we are faced with a terrible sight. I think you can fall more.

I understand why the etherium so fell in price. This is due to the fact that many ICO is a blown bubble. When the discipline in ICO comes, then the etherium will grow.

What kind of discipline are you talking about? is it because there are too many ERC20 smartcontract-based ICOs that end in scams? so that many people are not interested in investing in ethereum and racing to sell it so that prices fall?

Well, Ethereum price never reached 2 thousand as I remember but it does not matter. This altcoin will always be in a demand as ETH is the best cryptocurrency after Bitcoin. Just invest in it and hold ETH.

This is a crisis that needs to wait out. Ethereum will rise from the ashes like a Phoenix. I'm sure.

no one can say why the ETH has fallen in price. I believe that the main reason is the General decline of the market.

i doubt ethereum will fall that low and i do not think that we have to be afraid and sellnour ethereum coins right now

Maybe investors realised that investing in ICO is not worth it anymore then they dumped ETH and also those who are panic selling are really contributing for the drop of ETH price. We hit already the 52weeks low of the price, hopefully this is already the bottom.

It has not been reached but it is very possible because of the current trends, which are not so positive dor this alternative cryptocurreny, I hope it will survive.

Now the whole market is falling, not just Ethereum. It is not necessary to tie the UPS and downs to the charts of previous years, it makes no sense. I think it's better to just wait another six months and then analyze.

Well this past week has seen the cryptocurrency world fall in price to some amazingly low prices well this is not surprising because we are in a bearish state. the lowest price of ethereum was 172$ I think

yes, this is the lowest price for ethereum at a few weeks ago but today, the ethereum price can increase more than $200 although we are still in the lowest area, I am sure that the price can increase higher in the future. ethereum is one of the strong coins and the project still continue and with the back up from many people and community, this will help ethereum to break any price. maybe in the next month, we can see the price will jump to the highest price so we take a big profit from ethereum.

Not only ethereum but all the coints for the time being are low, market conditions have not recovered, still be patient for this situation, hopefully in the near future market conditions and all coints can return to normal

Do we are living in different spaces. At this time of last year, the price of Ethereum fell more than now. Last year, the price of ETH fell below 150 US dollars, and what is the lowest price this year?

Last year dip was not as bad as this. This dip might still extend down to 100$. The crypto space now to me is non predictable again

The lowest ETH price today is at $ 170, which has fallen to that level and is now above $ 200, but at a relatively low price compared to previous times so I do not think we So buy this coin

Ethereum has a good price at the moment, but what are the chances it won't fall any further? I personally believe it is weak. The project is behaving very strangely.

The decline in Ethereum was apparently caused by certain groups (sharks, whales, and communities) because it is impossible for retail investors to cause such a large decline!

Yes, ETH prices fell sharply at this time. But I still hope prices will rise sharply at the end of the year. Do not worry too much, hold on and wait a bit longer.

There are many bad news from govements and banks about crypt, and I think it is reason to ETH and others coin dump.

Yes, the price has fallen very low now. This is all the manipulation of the market. No more. Well, and panic sales of ETH, which are collected at the ICO. Silly move, really. Everyone started selling their ETH and dropped the coin super low.

now, eth prices are in a bad phase. we know that the price of eth on the market are continues to fall. what can be done now is to keep the eth that we have until the price goes up again and we don't know how long it will be. be patient and stay calm is the most important key now.

I think it's probably just the fall before the major takeoff and it is not necessary to attach great importance to this. Ethereum falls as well as other cryptocurrencies fall and for me this is an absolutely normal phenomenon of the market

Very good point. I think as ETH is a platform for many ICOs it can't help but be affected by scams and failures. However, in the past two days its price became higher, and I think it stabilizes a bit.

Etheruem lowest price is really difficult to predict or suggest because last year etheruem decline in price before it recover same thing applies this year  some even suggest that it will hit $50 but it didn't before it start recovering back.

There are no economical or logical signs that cryptocurrency in general or Ethereum in particular won't survive. It's a budding market with its own rules and trends. We need to hope for the best.

The lowest price for Ethereum is 148 dollars, with the departure below, problems can begin, for this is the purchase price of many ICO investors.

Ethereum is platform with a lot of disadvantages. You can find a lot of issues regarding it in world wide web. But actually this price is more than surprising. I never thought that price could appear

Sometimes it is not easy to observe it. You get up in the morning you open coinmarketcap you look and at ETH almost 45% cap is not present. And the course 174 $.
There, people shouted the broadcast for $ 500 and it's all lower (

Ethereum decline because Bitcoin also decline. If you notice the market everytime Bitcoin decline, altcoin also follow because Bitcoin is the Basis of altcoin's value. One more reason is that too many shitcoin are made in Ethereum platform that drag Ethereum down.

Well the lowest price in 15 months, but you also have to take into account that the market has been dropping more and more, and many currencies that also have years in the market witnessed quite disastrous declines, what happened to ETH is not unique, and has probably been one of the fastest to recover, so let's not fall into the FUD ... yet....

The decline was so bad that is reached $170 per coin. Positively,  that would be the chance to buy ETH at a huge discount. ETH is a great investment. Don't miss the chance.  Today ETH is recover very good.

Ethereum lowest price can't be predicted,but I believe that currently price is too good to pick it up for a long term
Don't hesitate doing that

There are times when the exchange rate of ETH drops to 150 dollars. And this time, the ETH rebounded to $ 214, which is ideal for investment because the future ETH exchange rate will recover to $ 800 and even $ 1,000. So take advantage of this opportunity to invest ETH now!

Investing in the Ethereum is just the best time just be patient. And my advice to you -  invest as much as you will not regret losing. Crypto-currencies are high-risk technologies

Need not to panic mate, victory and defeat are part of the game. Same applies here wait for your turn I agree that the value is dropping but it will recover slowly for sure. Do not sell your coins in this tough situation kindly hold your coins and have patience if you need a good return.

I think that this is due to the fact that bitcoin falls like the entire crypto currency. The ethereum depends very much on bitcoin because it falls down. But I think it's not for long. Soon there will be growth.

I think this is caused by the downturn in the ICO market, fewer people are buying Etherium to buy new coins and tokens. And the developers of new projects are increasingly selling their Etherium at any price, that's why the price so much falls.

The price of Ethereum for now is indeed low but not only ethereum, the other coints are the same, this is a fluctuating situation in the crypto world, but we must keep thinking positively if ethereum and the other coints will be normal again someday

Yes I think that'll be the lowest ETH will go anytime sooner. It breaks $180 level but seems to be a good buying zone for the long term investors and hence it went up quickly to $220 and now trading in tight range. Today market sentiment seems to be good and XRP leading the market for the past few days, XRP rises by more than 60% in 3 days and along with it rest market moves positively. I think if ETH can break $240 then it'll rally to $280-300 range in couple of days only.

Yeah in September eth dropped to the lowest price. And next month can be lower because eth too many erc20 tokens that are worthless. Eth supply is too many in market. The competitor know that, eth fork is also grow like etc, einc and other fork. New coins created with smart contract too like achain, iota, stratis, and others. ETH is too hard in the next month to grow.

the price increase of XRP did indeed make a lot of restraints to be happy. well, I increase as much as 40% this is really a great thing. this makes our spirit as people who use crypto really increase. Well, I think, for the moment it only needs to wait for ETH to do the same pump.

right as you say, because there is a decline in the market at this time it doesn't happen to ethereum only, but all coins also face bad conditions. but the right time is to survive and buy some altcoin

I think ethereum prices have fallen sharply this year because of the decline of most ICO projects.

Now the price of ETH's fall is out of control, lower than I expected. But I'm sure eth will go up again.

What is behind it? Speculation I think. In my opinion, it is the main reason for market volatility. And like everything in our life, this has two opposite sides. Right now we see bad side of that - market downtrend and as a result total panic, grim mood, disappointment, frustration, crypto-depression.
But because of the same manipulation, we had such a wonderful summer and autumn 2017! When my bag did x10 even without any help from my side :). And taking all of that into account, it isn't over yet. There will be other pumps and dumps, we just should be ready and keep our eyes open.

Am optimistic that Ethereum will soon bullrun again. Looking at the whole market, it is not only ethereum that decreased many coins are still trading minus 90% of their all time high.

the decline in ethereum prices on the market is the effect of negative news about ethereum itself, many people who take advantage of negative news about crypto currencies for their own sake, for example news about Google that prohibits crypto currency advertising. the news was spread to reduce prices and they intended to buy it. to get ethereum in a cheap price

Due to I think Ethereum will pump again, so I have bought more Ethereum recently, this is the promising project in the future, I would like to hodl it for the long term investment.

This is not the lowest that Ethereum has ever had its price. I know that t feels sad watching the coin sink this low, but this isn't and this cannot be the end of it. I'm certain that this coin will rise above all its challenges soon and bounce back, to recover all that it might have lost, including its high price, and trust of the market people.

People want to look for a reason of why this is happening but sometimes you just need to accept what your eyes are telling you, the price of ethereum is going down and there are not a lot of reasons to justify it, but if you are smart then you know that the price that we are seeing is simply impossible to sustain for a very long time, that is why you need to take advantage of it, because it's possible we are never going to see the current prices again.

When compared with 2017, of course this year is the worst year for Ethereum and several other altcoins. Because in 2017 are the years of growth for all cryptocurrency and have shocked the world. I think, now is the weak year for the growth of cryptocurrency after its power is exploited excessively in mid-December 2017.

Last year Ethereum rose from a very low price, and an increase in the number of investors suddenly made Ethereum prices peak in 2017. But in 2018 the price of Ethereum fell, this happened since January. The opportunity to rise is very difficult, because investors have spread to every coin.

Unfortunately, I do not have a clear answer to this question. I do not take into account the fall of the market. But I don’t understand why ETH fell so much. Here is the very moment that scares me ETH = $ 99.92
This is the end ?

i think that ETH price low is a direct consequence of ICO market crysis, as more than 90% of ICO tokens are on Ethereum blockchain. I really hope that ICO market will rise again and will find a way to eliminare scams in order to protect investors so that everyone can trust again ICOs...

The entire market is down as you can see as of today so its not only Eth but all so don't worry if theres a big downfall of Eth because it will recover soon as per crypto experts. So what we need to do is to wait and hodl or best is to buy more so that you will have more profits when bull runs come.

It seems to me that such a dramatic drop in the price of ethering that we see now can be explained only by one reason - large market players started a game as a result of which they want to oust all smaller players from the market.

Ethereum is dropping more then other coins from few weeks and making huge negative sentiment on all ethereum based coins and today again it comes in 2 digits from 3 digits. It is very depressing movement of eth and eth based coins investors.

ethereum gives us another chance to buy at low levels, if the current price is not a sign of another decline, in any case, the purchase for a long term will be profitable.

The development upgrades took too long to be announced and they were postponed. In crypto it is too long time to wait for and upgrade. They were not communicated on the best way. Lot of different negative  things has been added  up and now we have ETH under $100. Despite all, ETH still remains one of the most trusted and potential coin.

Some say it's because of these ICO devs dumping their shares and investors are not buying more eth to invest in ICO it's the declined of the ICO that makes the price of Bitcoin going down if you notice so many scams ICO and they are the one immediately selling when they accumulate funds.

I have predicted that Ethereum will go low than this since the price of the coin is been dumped by ICOs that raised funds and turns out to be scam. By January 2019,it will be trading around 50 usd.

you are right, currently the price of eth 97 $ and this is the time for me to buy eth, there I also need to buy and sell transactions, I will no longer be going up or not I can buy and I hold it for a long time until eth returns high cost.
I have confidence that 3 months at the beginning of 2019 will return to normal.
If you are sure, just buy eth if you are hesitant to wait again

It is true ethereum for now is really experiencing a low price, I don't know no one can predict when it will reach its normal price, of course this is related to the problem of time, to be able to return to its normal price certainly takes a short time

not only ethereum,but for all coins, this is worst condition for crypto, i dont know why but its seems like have so many people withdrawing their money from crypto, but this not the end ethereum, ethreum will increase again next years

The market is going deeper and deeper and I have no doubts that we will reach even lower prices during this year. Ethereum will bounce back in the upcoming months, because I believe that the next Ethereum update will push the whole market up.

I remember that long time ago ethereum price was around 0.5 $. Having regard to the fact, that everything is possible on the market, why dont we reach this price once more?:)

you are a bit ignorant. Don't you know that the technology and development of crypto DOES NOT AFFECT BY ANYMEANS THE MARKET?????

The market is FULL OF MANIPULATION, AND PEOPLE DON'T CARE ABOUT TECHNOLOGY AT ALL. JUST PROFIT!!!!!!!

Again and again, market manipulation, ICOs are selling Ethereum tokens raised in their pre sale, people panic that Ethereum has no future and so on.

What a stupid statement guy.

Today is VERY VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE LASTS YEARS. Why? Because governments, banks, and traders did have NO PROBLEMS WITH LAWS, LEGISLATIONS AND TAXES. Today, it's a different history. IF ETH went to 0,5$ even 20$ IT'S ABSOLUTELY DEAD.

Now Ethereum starts lowering its price and I think this is the beginning of great great bearish that happened this year. But besides of this great deflation of cryptocurrency we need to have enough patience and accept what's the real situation of the cryptomarket this year.

Last year the price of Ethereum greatly increased and was at number 2 coinmarketcap. That is because many companies use the Ethereum network. The Ethereum network is used as a platform for developing decentralized applications. so that it can increase the price of Ethereum on the crypto market. Now we see that ethereum has decreased very far, in my opinion, it is caused by companies that move to the EOS network. EOS is faster than ETH and cheaper. The company does not need ETH for Ethereum networks. Users and investors are gradually replacing ETH to EOS because according to the companies, EOS is better. EOS is also one of the strongest competitors for the Ethereum network.

Ethereum is useless coin, it is at its real value now, under $100. The ICO bubble in 2017 make Ethereum price high, because suddenly demand of it, after the burst of ICO bubble, Ethereum has become back to its real value, under $100.

The lowest price in Ethereum may range from $40 to $60. The cryptocurrency market is now ushered in the winter, and miners have sold their own bitcoins, otherwise their production may go bankrupt, so bitcoin will continue to fall.

Do you really think it was a bubble? I`m confident that you`ll change your decision later. However, ETH can loose the demand because of his new competitors like eos

Until now Ethereum's lowest price is $84 in 2018. Maybe it could fall a little bit or even come to values ​​we never thought possible. But eventually when the market will recover, it will regain itself to its old days.

To be honest, I don't really understand what the big factors behind the severe reduction of ethereum price. But actually it is interesting to find out what the factors are. I agree if this year is the worst time for ethereum and other coins.

The price of Ethereum may drop because it has many holders. When everyone is afraid of the market, Ethereum will become the most cryptocurrency sold at low prices!

I think last year is the best time for any cryptocurrency. they reach their peak price last year.
But this year seems to be the time for the cryptocurrency to face their lowest price possible. And perhaps it will be rising up high again next year.

Yeah, you got that right. While Eth and the other coins are going further down, why not look at other altcoins that have shown amazing potential? Take Byteball, as a clearcut example. So much simpler but better than most.

Today Ethereum make a new low of this year and it is very annoying. everyone wants Ethereum to grow up but the whole market is in dilemma. We hope that it will stop shortly and we see the big jump in the new year

can not be denied if at present the price of Ethereum makes many people disappointed. but do you really know crypto and Ethereum? if you really know him then you won't be too disappointed because the crypto price reduction is reasonable and Ethereum is a very good coin that won't die right now.

It was very disappointing issue for me that ETH has go down from 100$. Most of the ICO are can not funded last few months so demand of the ETH has go down also. I believe after bullish run we will see again more demand for ETH.

I think the whales are behind this, which influence cryptocurrency prices, but I do not understand the logic, you cannot lose a private investor, this is bad for all players in the crypto market!

The price has never fell as badly as it is now. I think what's happening to Ethereum goes beyond the normal bearish trend that most coins are passing through. Ethereum platform needs a massive overhauled if it wsnr to compete again in the industry in the nearest future because there are many better platforms now with enhanced protocol that will soon chase Ethereum off the space of crowdfunding and smart contracting.

Last year the Ethereum price was rising only and the ICOs were extremely popular. But in my opinion lots of not very successful projects sell their ETH in order to save the profit, and thatvis why the price is decreasing.

Perhaps you are right, because today the capitalization of the ethereum has greatly decreased. And yet we are seeing an increase in the popularity of the coin ripple and usdt.

Well, Ethereum was overbought of course , and because of this now such a drop , I think there are many more projects that were collected in the ico, a lot of fixed their money , so we now see that Ethereum has fallen very much

Last year, the price of Ethereum did not fall so much. This year, the price will fall until it reaches last year's low and people will have a desire to buy it, as the demand is needed.

Hard to believe it has fallen below $100 but the whales are still buying so they must feel like ethereum actually has a future. However, i think it is better to pick cardano and tezos which will much better than ethereum when they are released

Ethereum is still big, don't forget it's worldwide loved.

I think this is the worst. the price continues to fall and is very cheap, in the coinmarketcap ethereum position is also shifted by xrp, maybe this also happens because of following bitcoin or crypto market. it's really bad at ethereum prices now. but definitely recovered.

The price is around $87 now. It seems the bottom is not found yet.

It is very sad to look at the price of ethereum, but I am sure that this is definitely not the end and we are waiting for the next wave of growth. importantly keep calm. I would even advise to buy it now, which I actually did;)

The reason behind this because for sure they have panic seller. But if you are really believer of this coin you will buy because you want to survive ethereum from dumping market so that also we see ethereum as soon as possible as king of crypto.

This is a good reset of price value, huge volume is going on today. As what I predict, it will be huge movement from now on. The question is, which coin would be on the move to take this opportunity. With XRP on its prime, I think other coin like XLM will be my bet incase they got something. On the otherhand, ETH will be on Ice Age for a little while.

Hard to find why ethereum drop very deep but i think its good opportunity for buying ethereum because ethereum is good coin and used by most token in market. Hopely this condition will end and ethereum price could recover because its popular coin and i think most investor hold ethereum

If the Ethereum price went down this entire year, then the whole Ethereum price will probably gradually rise the next year.  To fall especially low the price now will not be already.

this is the impact of the Bearish market throughout the year. reasonable if the price drops lower than before. the question is where is the lowest point? even until the end of the year the market continues to be in a very sad downtrend

this is not the end of ethereum if you see low prices, the ethereum potential is still high today. we can continue to believe and invest in ethereum to ethereum at a good price position.

I do not understand, can you explain to me why unsuccessful projects can have ETH and sell them for profit. As far as I know the ICO is not enough soft-cap will have to pay back investors

Right now the whole coins reduced in price too much so we cannot blame anyone coin that it has the risk or in decline. Whenever the market will be up all of the coins will come back to its high value to which they reached in the previous year.

yes this year the fall is very deep and this year is a bad year for Crypto. Whatever happens that clearly has a relationship with the amount of market demand, it is influential and of course there are other things that can cause the value to go down. but things like this will not always happen and will definitely end so Ethereum will rise again, the coins will potentially grow well, maybe next year the price of Ethereum will increase better.

It's not from the end. but now the price has reached its lowest level this year and certainly makes a lot of people stressed out with a considerable decline from ethereum

ethereum starts to upset me, as they say, buy the bottom and get the second bottom as a gift, i have already received the fourth bottom.

Looking at the current situation, the price of ETH fell to the bottom again.

You must understand that the price of Ethereum cannot rise against the market. This does not mean that no one needs ETH and is not interesting, on the contrary, the number of network users is growing, 48 million unique wallets have already been registered. The project postponed the update several times, but this is only to eliminate all bugs and errors. So don't pay attention to the price, it will recover when the market starts its bullish run.

I have lost my investment but I still believe in crypto.  Nothing is impossible in cryptocurrency market. The important key is patient in bear market, it will come back.

For Ethereum is a very strong team in the first place and I think that this is the main thing when the development team takes care of their coin !

this year the decline is very severe, this must be the reason through the news circulating and the reduced trust of many investors who often jump into crypto, hopefully this situation can quickly end.

as far as I remember, it wasn't as bad as now, it took almost 1 year to recover, but eth must also be remembered up to 0.1xxx so the correction that happened was extended coupled with negative news and also with bitcoin correction in many people began to despair and panic and finally sell their digital assets ... maybe that is some breeder, eth prices tend to go down.....maybe eth can 50$  ;D ;D ;D

If Ethereum users increase, the price of Ethereum must also increase, not vice versa. The price of Ethereum follows the price of Bitcoin. If bitcoin goes down, almost all altcoins will experience price declines.

Lot of ICO this year sold already their eth that been raised during the ico period and the bearish market condition really drag down eth price like what other altcoins suffering right now. Honestly my eth portfolio is already -77% and it really hurts to see my portfolio with a huge losses. I still thinking if I add more eth or just wait for a deeper bottom.

Taking into account all current trends, it is possible that Ethereum could fall in price up to $ 50, so those who are now investing in it should be ready for such an outcome of events and have a backup plan of action. Ideally, it is best to set up notifications and, of course, do not forget about stoploss.

because investors sell too much rather than buy, that makes eth prices fall, not only do other eth coins fall

Last year, Ethereum experienced not only a recession, but also a boom, and a very good one, which is not likely to be observed this year!

If this is surprising to you, then there is nothing surprising to me in the decline in the price of Ethereum. He is addicted to bitcoin and bitcoin is now going down. So it would be at least strange if cash up Ethereum, and bitcoin would fly down.

for the previous year, ethereum prices were high, although it was down not like this year which experienced an unnatural price decline because ethereum's price was below the standard, and it surprised many people with the arrival of such news, I was surprised even though I also used ethereum to invest.

it could happen if more people panicked when they saw the market. I think what they are doing now is very stupid because crypto is being looked at by many big companies. so there is still a chance to recover and reach ATH.

I'm waiting for Bitcoin to fall below $ 3000, and ETH will fall to $ 70-80, respectively. I did not recommend buying from current levels, it’s better to wait for a change in trend and steady growth than to sit for months in a drawdown!

I bought 5 ETH when price scale 300$+ than gradually my portfolio down day by day.
Unexpected market crash and crypto manipulating the big whales is the main reason to dropping.
I don't know when price going moon and loss recover.

the one fate is not just you, but almost half of the people in this forum are the same, their assets are slowly decreasing. and holding back to normal condition is an absolute choice

As the king of cryptocurrency goes on its dip price then altcoins will follow. Ethereum price now is under $100, sad to see but somehow there is a bright thing would be. Time to buy.

Ethereum has already proven something many companies accept it as payment and also create a token in their platform.
It has a great future ahead who knows vitalik will improve ethereum scalability or whatsoever. We are on bearish market now obviously it will decrease but it is a good opportunity to bag some.

I am thinking Ethereum may still go down to as low as $50 before the bull run will take effect, I may be wrong though, but this is exactly how I am feeling about Ethereum lowest price.

Perhaps the most important is the number of hackers who stole Ethereum from several exchanges and immediately sold it because it was as if investors were worried to invest in crypto currency because without any security guarantees, other factors might be because the statement from Vitalik Buterin announced the resignation of core team Ethereum

News after being spread out really take an impact to the market, that statement worried more investors and giving the whales a playing opportunities to shake more the entire community of ETH supporters, better to keep away for awhile since the price is falling again and there's no trace knowing how deep it can go more.

I do not know why this happened. The price of ETH drops a lot every week. There are not any bad news or FUD. It looks like investors are getting depressed and start selling their ETH at low prices to get rid of the market.

I think the future of ethereum is also a bright future, because now seeing growth is also good, because ethereum is a good platform and many projects from ICO use ethereum, so I'm sure the future of ethereum is also a good future.

The whole market is collapsing. ICO has gone through his heyday. In my opinion that is all the reasons ETH devalue

for me the future of ethereum is also a longer future, because I am very sure of that. Ethereum will jump back and I am very sure of this one Altcoin. Hopefully our bright hopes will come true.

The reason for the fall of Ethereum above all is that the price of the entire cryptocurrency market falls. Ethereum drops the fastest because tokens change to ETH, and then ETH sell for dollars.

Ethereum now drops at $87, so most of the ICO's is affected. We know that eth and btc is the most pair for all the altcoins, if btc fall same for ethereum fall. Predictions for eth is lower that $100 and this will happen now! I sudggest to buy more eth because this coin have a huge potential

I predict that if ethereum is under $ 80, then the price will be $ 65 and that is very likely, but if eth can break $ 100, then we will see the next point at $ 120

I believe that now Ethereum really reached its lowest price. It is likely that in the coming months it will drop a little more. But in the future will definitely begin to go up. Therefore, I believe that the best strategy for work now is to continue hold and buy this coin at the current price.

At present, ethereum is at its lowest point, but I believe this coin will slowly rise and return to its normal price, but certainly not that easy, because to be able to return to normal it takes time, and we must be patient for ethereum to rise again

What should the price grow from? For this year, eth has not yet implemented anything. I hope the release of the update will solve most of the problems of the platform otherwise, it will be a sad end.

I think lowest point was close to 80$ and going deeper is like a death for ethereum.
Panic sell is unpredictable, so I hope whales don't make it

January update remains the last hope. if everything goes wrong, we can forget about ethereum and its use. all projects will leave this blockchain

of course, because of the current bear market situation, ethereum prices have dropped, and investors have started to leave the crypto world that's make all the altcoin prices crashed.
but we will get more investors in the next year, I hope so.

Most of the sale panic is over, the next part can happen when the price of Ethereum drops to below $ 70-$ 60. Nevertheless, you need to be crazy to sell at that price.

there are still opportunities and hopefully this is not the end, next year Ethereum will be stable again. many use the platfrom Ethereum so in my opinion Ethereum will continue to run well, this is only a matter of time and every market like this is normal. indeed, there are many projects that fail now but there are still those that are successful so we have to try again well and hopefully it will succeed, waiting in the future everyone will come back well.

For me all things happen in the price of ethereum is normal, so dont be confuse on what happen just stay calm and wait the right time to sell your ethereum because all things will be okay again but for now  we need to wait when the price back to its normal place because changes is always present in the crypto world.

I myself still do not know the exact cause of how but, indeed if compared to last year ethereum now can be said to be the most severe in my opinion with the decline in the price that is so deteriorating makes many people to move other coins in order to avoid losses that will be caused later.

Yes, I still want to know what happens about the Ethereum kept dropping in the month, I have found many coins have dropped then will rise again, but I don't see the ETH have any rise recently, what story behind the it now?

I am still very much surprised as regards the rate at which ethereum keeps falling, but i know that one of the factors is the media, most especially the news that are being peddled around. I wanted to invest into it, but my skepticism over it is still holding me back.

Ethereum seems to have a lot of support around $85, it has bounced up from there but continues to test it as the new floor. Once that has been breached then who knows where it can go. Perhaps down to $50 it is hard to say

Last year, I don't remember Ethereum falling that low. I think one of the main reasons is that the teams that launch projects on the Ethereum platform sell the collected funds during the ICO. They sell because the price is lower and lower, and they need money for the development of the project. Ethereum is a very promising project, and I think it will give a good growth in the future

No need to compare the events taking place this year with last year. But it should be remembered that the market is cyclical and after the fall always follows growth.

There's always possibilities, but also who knows after some time ETH will bounce high again, it will be depending with supporters who can wait and hold what they've got right now, those who are selling out and already removing their supports will regret their actions after seeing the big rise back of this project, everything is always possible around crypto.

no doubt ethereum's price is at the lowest for now, but its not completely bad. this decline is giving us an opportunity to buy ethereum at low price and we can get a lot of profit when the price is rise

Now all cryptocurrency market also getting down. Not also ethereum. We can't manage this bad marketing condition with panic sellers. Without any bad news but day by day market going to flow.

how often have you seen strong support, so what? How did it save not to fall to 85 usd? nohow

I think that falling prices is good, but certainly not for all. Let's calm down and look at the situation from the positive side ! You can now buy Ethereum for $ 85 in turn, a year ago it costs $ 1400 is Not this a great area to buy ?) I do not encourage buying I just share my opinion guys )

Bitcoin is now also falling in price so this has a negative impact on Ethereum. Ethereum prices always follow the growth of Bitcoin and this has been proven. So to increase prices Ethereum must also follow the growth of Bitcoin. I am sure if the price of Ethereum is only temporary.

an increase in ethereum users will also increase ethereum prices, but in fact ethereum prices continue to fall, even though the market is declining but if there are many users of ethereum or fans then ethereum prices should not experience a very drastic decline

Some people say that Ethereum will go to $50, some say that the bottom already reached. I can say that the trend is bearish and more chances that price will drop more.

Almost crypto are dropping and we cannot predicted the ethereum lowest price. The price are unpredictable in every coins in the market. The more you believe and holding in this coin eth could recover in time.

I know what you are trying to sell but ethereum's lowest price was probably ico price which was around 0.30$ if i remember correctly.

Don't know really, but it's a good chance to buy now, we can't predict things anyway but since the drop is really bad there might be a chance that it will be over very soon, just think of the fact that you buy a coin less than $100 now that is worth $1K last year, it's a great opportunity now, just don't leave your coin unattended because the volatility of ETH is fast

This happens just like in ethereum and other altcoins like Bitcoin. This year there is the lowest price for ethereum. Indeed this is very surprising for everyone. Very bad this year for cryptocurrencies. With a very low price decline to ethereum. We cannot do anything except just wait for everything to rise.

I am not surprised because I know crypto is volatile, where prices can change significantly over time. not only ethereum has experienced a significant decline, but also other altcoins. even though bitcoin also experiences the same thing. so indeed this year is not the year of crypto.

yes, ethereum at its lowest price now, in fact, I was not expecting that ethereum will go below $100 now it is $86 I hope so it will go up.

Yeah, I agree with your opinion. I think now is the right time to buy ETH. Even if ETH reaches $ 50 then I will buy ETH with all my money that I have.

We can see price lower simply if BTC will go down again. Many people think it's impossible by different reasons. But the main reason is manipulation. That's why we can go to $1.5-2k. And in this case ETH will go down also. I'd like to buy more eth by $30. As gift before Christmas

The crypto market is in the worst stage I've ever seen. All pennies fell sharply. ETH has fallen to the top 3 CMC and XRP is the coin many investors are most concerned about today. ETH will probably fade in the future without a developer's specific solution.

If you see the price of Ethereum right now you can see that the price become below $100 and I guess that it might dropped at $50 or below. Until now I can't see the any sign that the price of ethereum will go to the moon again.

In such sad period, it's hard to set one's order price for ether, maybe I'll buy some at $25.

I don't know what you're surprised at or what you don't understand. Last year, the crypto currency was inflated to huge heights and it was only a matter of time when it would deflate to the mark from which it all began.

precisely at the price of Ethereum which is very low then this is a very good time to multiply your assets if you still believe if Ethereum is able to rise again. this is a rare moment because Ethereum is difficult to get down to this low condition if the conditions aren't too bad. but if you don't have the capital to buy Ethereum then waiting is indeed your only choice.

It is because of the continuous price reduction of bitcoin, that cause panic sell for the investors holding their ethereum coin. And also some investors are making tether defense and they use ethereum to change to it. 

Why cannot we? We can buy or sell, which influence the market in some way. We can discuss the situation on the forum, which also may influence the future of both the market and Ethereum!

I am also very optimistic about the cryptocurrency market. It seems to me that even the current price for ethereum is too low. Therefore, I also buy ethereum as much as possible and have no regrets.Cryptocurrency is the future!And this is an obvious fact.

Now the market is falling because of the bearish bitcoin market , and actually few people invest in ico , and therefore all Ethereum holders sell

I think that by the end of this year the price of Ethereum will not fall below $ 80. Now in general, ETH has begun to grow in price. What do you think the recovery began?

Many believe that we are now at the lowest price of Ethereum. The current state may remain unchanged for the next week or two. Further, two options are possible, this is an increase in price by the new year, by about 20% -50% or a fall due to the next panic sale.

Previously the price was also low, so this is a normal situation and indeed the recovery process of Tehran is very slow. they are more waiting for the market to increase, such as increasing bitcoin and then they will go up too.

Your observation was right on Ether price going down last year but not to the level it has fallen to this year. Ether really has a lot of challenges in EOS, NTY and XRP and its smart contract is the most attacked as there are new blockchains that are doing 500TPS compare to ether's 7 TPS. But Ether will be undergoing hard fork early next year which will really impact on the fortune of ethereum.

The minimum price of Ethereum should be between $50 and $70, no less than this value. If it is less than $50, Ethereum will return $10, but this time it won't happen easily. Now I doubt the future of Ethereum. I am not willing to buy Ethereum.

The price falls down due to the fact that they deceive update their network. Many projects leave the ETH network and launch their blockchain due to network congestion. The ETH team is waiting for the turn of the wound, for the release of obneni. Waiting for good conditions. After that the price will go up again.

the lowest price of ethereum in 2018 occurred a few weeks ago. ethereum prices have fallen and prices have become very cheap, many traders should be able to take advantage of cheap ethereum prices to buy.

I think this is common in the crypto world, even though the price falls at the lowest price. because basically the market cannot be controlled by anyone, other than that the current rises and prices fall depending on market demand. the important point for me is where prices fall to the lowest price, it could be when the market rises again the possibility of the price of coins can skyrocket. This crypto is very unique but of high value.

Behind this are the network problems that the team can not solve. As soon as they solve these problems, the price will go up again.

It is difficult to say which price can be the lowest one for Ethereum. I guess the altcoin can continue falling in December. After the winter holidays, when the New Year and Xmas fuss is over, it will start growing.

With Ethereum all is well, the project is developing, the developers have outlined a block on which the implementation of Constantinople will take place. Let's not jump to conclusions.

at this time the ETH price really fell, 3 days ago it was only $ 89, but today it rose again to $ 93.
I hope ETH can rise a little more.
I think the reason for the fall of the altcoin is none other than because the BTC is also down, BTC is very influencing the market.

There are some strong trends behind it. The major trend is whole market declines, and moving by the law of the previous bear/bull cycle. And the supporting of the bear market is the huge amount of ICOs projects which are selling their ETH and dumping the price

It is still supricing to me how things are going in the cryptocurrency world especially the ethereum, price is very low now, and with my little time in the cryptocurrency world this happen to be the lowest rates of the ethereum. So I wouldn't say I know what is behind it. Am also here to learn and know what may be behind this fall.

Ethereum is not the only coin affected, every coin in the market is one way or the other affected. So, the reason will surely be channelled towards some sorts of news.
Has it gas always been, media has huge impact and effect on cryptocurrency.

At present, ethereum prices are down about $ 80 down nearly 10 compared to 12 months ago, however we believe we will soon get a profit and the ethereum will quickly rise again for us.

I don't know what the main cause is, but indeed the fact that we can accept it like that, how can it be difficult, the decline in eth prices is also very sharp compared to last year which I felt was last year that made people able to get profit because of eth but , now maybe not.

Yes, ethereum falls down its price, so as bitcoin and altcoins in the market. But as we can see right now, it currently increase in a small percentage, i think that this increase indicates for ethereum has a comeback in the future market's price.

of course, until now indeed the price of bitcoin still greatly affects the movement of the rise and fall of all altcoins.

i really hope that by the end of this year there will be a very good change in the direction of the market, i think the market has been too weak for a long time. hopefully next year the market will be good.

At present, ethereum reaches its lowest price, but what is clear is that this situation will not last forever, as a strong coin and many enthusiasts of ethereum will certainly be able to slowly recover even if it takes time

there nothing to worry my friend. They going to increase, because when you look the statistic, as of now they increase over 10usd already for just 2days. So nothing to worry.

Don't worry too much about this, ethereum is now down very drastically, but we should not get worse in a situation like this, still convinced that in the future everything will run normally again but still need time, a good and strong ethereum coin will be able to survive and return to its normal price

I see this post is a few months old, the price is much lower today :) Just sayin, haha. If should've known we could've increased the Quantity of our ETH holdings by this day, by selling earlier and buying today!

just calm down, bro. the beginning of the year is the best day for Ethereum users, where there will be an airdrop event from Ethereum which might be able to boost ETH prices even better
hardfork culture has happened a lot, but this hardfork from Ethereum is very different, with the presence of a mining system using the POS (Proof Of Stake) model believed Ethereum will be very consistent in keeping its price above 300 USD

the problem is the price of Ethereum is difficult to predict so we really don't know it will happen like this. if only we knew it then we could get profit if it was sold at that time. but who would have thought if a coin as strong as Ethereum could go down to a fairly low price like this. I'm sure if many people don't expect this and maybe the price of Ethereum can be lower than this, so what will you do?

Maybe this decrease in Ethereum is far more severe. But with this price decline, we can take a positive effect. With the decrease in the price of Ethereum, we can now invest with low coin prices. Because I'm sure if the market will recover.

I think the main cause why Eth and whole crypto market downfall are these following event:
1. Market correction following a massive boom in the late 2017 and early 2018.
2. BCH hard fork war amongst the two clan BCHABC and BCHSV
3. Bad press
4. Regulatory hurdles

I think this year's Ethereum recession is different from last year's. This year's Ethereum is facing a major blockade, so the price of Ethereum will be difficult to recover in the future. The rise of Ethereum is very small in the future.

prices fell in this period was indeed quite low compared to the previous time. and even as this also surely makes the holder from ethereum feel to lose confidence in coins that they hold. but slowly the ethereum ride and I think when hardfork ethereum arrives it will arrive at the height of the rise in the price of the ethereum.

It's very simple, all altcoins fall after Bitcoin and Ethereum is no exception. As most of ICO projects conducted on the platform Ethereum, the fees of funds are carried out in the ETH tokens. After completion of ICO projects need money for further development and are forced to sell ETH in large quantities, this also pushes the price down.

Be optimistic and do more planning to be prepared of every possible things to happen with regards to ethereum future price. I am really convinced that eth will not be dead more years from now because the market ICOs used the platform of eth as an ERC 20 tokens.

ICO uses ETH to operate, and once the ICO dies the ICO will be severely affected. As a result, ETH has gone down to its lowest level in 2018 at 80$. I am not sure that the market has recovered because it is too early to come to a conclusion.

The reasons behind it that Ethereum is facing very big problems at the moment. After ICOs have fixed their profit and sold a lot of Ethereum, there were no major updates to push the price. Luckily a great fork is coming soon.

Yes, Conjectures are based only on the results of a temporary period. However, ETH slipped above the resistance at 150. And I think the ~ 80 is the lowest price of ETH this year. And the highest rate is in April 2018 with ~ $ 820. The blue candle has come back strongly. Be patient and optimistic with many ICO projects at the end of this year and 2019.

We cannot expect to fall eth when the market has already fallen. Eth is really a very strong project. Make sure you will be the first coin to rise with the recovery of the market.

indeed at the moment it sounds shocking because not only is Ethereum the lowest price, but all markets at the moment are experiencing a very drastic decline, but we still believe there will be better changes for next year.

Ethereum will definitely recover in price. This happened at the same time when the price of Bitcoin will start its next hike to new heights, until that time we could well expect even lower prices than the last.

why are you all so panicking Has ethereum become worse due to this fall? Of course not, so why panic? he will recover anyway

Behind this is a general market decline. Well, it seems to me that it would be appropriate to talk about the prospects of this coin. And I think they are very good. Ethereum is one of the first projects to include new investments. This is the only blockchain with a huge ecosystem that has proven its working capacity. There is no doubt that in the next bulls run the price will recover very quickly.

Many tokens are created on the Ethereum platform, even if the ICO die will remain STO or something else, the blockchain has become necessary and the ether gives its blockchain to everyone.

I think behind the decline of ETH is the pressure of Bitcoin. Bitcoin began to rapidly lose value, which also negatively affected ETH, which continued to fall. All this led to the fact that the price for ETX dropped to $ 80.

The whole cryptomarket was in declining trend this year  and ETH had the same behavior. Last year there was an ICO booming
which has led to ETH`s huge increase. This year the opposite happened, as the ICO projects were struggling and  they further
pushed the price of ETH down.

I hope that this coin will not become even cheaper. It seems to me that it has already reached the bottom and now growth will begin.

Indeed the price of Ethereum has dropped very low and you should try to enter the market now. That Ethereum price increases and I'm sure if this is the beginning of the increase in the price of Ethreum. And don't let us not have stock of Ethereum.

I think that this year we have already passed the minimum price for Ethereum in the amount of $ 83. Further we will see only the growth of Ethereum. In January, the price is likely to fall again. But here I am definitely not sure)

People are considering ICO developers dumping their ETH after the token sales as one of the primary reasons but it's not only Eth people are dumping their coins because of lack of confidence in the market at this point of time, but it will going to bounce back just like what we are seeing now.

In any case, Ethereum remains one of the most reliable and stable coins on the modern crypto market; it has excellent potential for successful development in the future. Therefore, I believe that the current price is below $ 100 - a great opportunity for profitable investments and buying Ethereum.

Don't be too pessimistic, although Ethereum has become very cheap, but the ether has not collapsed, it still exists, it is still the king of ICO.

I think there are many reasons for the decline in the price of Ethereum.
1. There are too many ICO frauds, causing investors to abandon the purchase of ETH for investment.
2. The fraudster sold a large amount of ETH in exchange for fiat money, resulting in a panic selling.

Behind Ethereum is a very strong team of developers that people trust and understand that it will be able to bring the coin out of a difficult situation Ethereum is already working on the creation of new technologies that will improve the technology.

Of course Ethereum is not dead, we do not know how it will behave at the next take-off of the crypto currency and especially at the increased demand for ICO projects.

of course ethereum with a team and a large community that supports it will definitely go through this difficult situation. we can see it now ethereum has risen from the fall. the price may still be very cheap but it's likely that ethereum prices will improve soon.

Their are other factors such as the manipulation of whales and other that help to dump Eth price. Ethereum will correct its price but it will take a long amount of time , hopefully when it bitcoins correct its price , Ethereum will correct its price too.

It could make people who want to start a project start-up using the platform Ethereum ICO demand will be reduced due to the ETH prices down. And it's possible to switch to another platform.

Some analysts has said that Ethereum will go up again and when it does, it’s going to be big this time around. Ethereum always fall badly, if you check the history you can see what I’m telling you, anytime it falls its always like this… just like before the last bull when it was hacked and all that and a lot of people lost hope in it. This time around it might also be the same.

The price of Ethereum was naturally influenced by the overall market situation. But I think. which was further influenced by the huge amount of Ethereum that was sold by projects that got it on ICO. In a fairly short time, a lot of ethereum has been sold. But projects need funds for further work.

I think the price of Ethereum at the moment is the lowest, just like the price of Bitcoin. And sure enough the current price of Ethereum has risen quite well during this week, so for now the market has returned green, hopefully Ethereum will continue to crawl up again to $ 500.

Hey Dude!
Look at the update price if now Ethereum has gone up in price!
As far as I know the lowest price is around 80 USD for Ethereum and Ethereum has gone up again to the price of 147 USD.

At present it is indeed the lowest point for ethereum and other coin-coins, but I think now there has been an increase and hopefully this increase will be a good start for other coins as well

I think this is the best time to buy ETH when they are at down price and just HODL and wait for the time of mooning

it proves that Ethereum is still very feasible for us to hold. Honestly I doubt the quality of Ethereum after a very deep decline at that time which made Ethereum become the 3rd position on the market. but it turned out that I was wrong if I did not believe in Etherem. so I'm sure if Ethereum will return to the price of $ 500.

The current price of ethereum has experienced growth from the previous one which dropped dramatically. This indicates that there will be a pretty good thing in my opinion

If we look at the ethereum market, now there is a movement and this is a pretty good step, so the enthusiasts will still be confident and will continue to keep the coin, myself managed to buy ethereum at the lowest point yesterday with a change in prices. I am so happy hope the prices always keep well developed.

yes, the increase produced by ethereum is quite surprising, it can come back at $145 now. luckily everyone who has bought ethereum at the lowest price

I am waiting for another major fall in front of hardfork in early January, where I will buy Ethereum and keep it for long term.

Actually main reason was about founder of ethereum. He always says absurd things about market and ethereum but now increasing of market started and it is going very well, so I believe that market will come really good position that it deserve in 2019.

all crypto prices are now at their lowest, not only ethereum has decreased at the end of this year. But I believe that at the beginning of the year, the price of krypto will increase again

Every period, crypto has a different level in developing the market value of its coins. Perhaps this year or the following year, a decrease in the current ethereum value can now provide a higher source of energy for ethereum than the previous value achieved. This event will be coming soon when crypto has found bitcoin to increase and be stable.

The forecast for ethereum largely depends on the events planned by the network developers for 2019 and announced by Vitalik Buterin in the spring of this year. After the planned hard forks, there will be a change of protocol: switching from PoW (proof of work) to the distribution of the share Proof-of-Stake (Casper), which will provide a threefold increase in throughput, increase the speed of payment transactions, reduce the cost of auxiliary domestic currency conducting transactions.

Even if it falls to it's low in a year or two I still believe that Ethereum will bounce back, there's also a big possibility that they can regain their second spot, Ethereum will always a top coin because of it's innovation and beside it is the one that started the ICO because of this many companies wants to get in the cryptocurrency.

I think if we look at the crypto market, the price very collapses. But this happened because of deliberate actions by investors with very extraordinary funds. They tried to lower the market to make everyone panic and sell coins at cheap prices. So the market falls and these investors can also invest at low prices. So that when this market price soars, investors have huge profits.

Against the background of the general market decline, there was a sale of a large amount of ether, many creators of the ICO on the Etherium blockchain massively went into cash.

Now Ethereum has begun to show promising notes of growth, which in itself is very good!

In my opinion. the decline in ETH prices like now could be someone who wants to play with the price. we all know that the price of the crypto currency is volatile. I think the prices of people who are playing with the prices behind the decline in ETH prices are very significant on the Cipto market.

I believe that the price was specially lowered, so that someone could purchase at most. This is the only explanation for this price drop. Apparently, earlier, the big players were looking at one or another cryptocurrency and missed the first rapid growth, but now they decided to enter the cryptographic market, but at the same time having reduced the price. This is in the interests of those who have already earned success and why not do it again. Etherum is a promising crypto asset and it definitely grows in value.

ethereum's price drop is very drastic this year, not only does ethereum decline because almost all coins experience the same thing, I don't know exactly what caused this to happen, but believe that after a dump there will definitely be a pump, now ethereum starts showing a recovering price pretty good

I like your opinion and I also think that in general it can work very well if you and I still try to invest our money right now, although of course there is always the likelihood of a trap forming, so I think that things may not be so simple.

Recently, there were again forecasts, among which were mentioned the increase in prices for cryptocurrencies at the end of 2018. It is said that as early as January 2019 we will see the ether about 250 dollars. But it won't take long to rejoice, because until the end of 2019 you can see another fall. That is what another analyst forecast says.

The drop in the price of Ethereum certainly affects all ICO coins. But Ethereum will definitely rise again and in recent days the price of Ethereum continues to grow. And I think this is the beginning of the rise in the price of Ethereum and I hope Ethereum can reach $ 300.

I think that the previous lowest price (around 80 in genereal) will be the minimum this year and maybe the minimum for the near future. I`m waiting for grear bullrun!

As we see the lowest price Ethereum is in the range of $ 83, but in just a few days the price of $ 150 is a high increase and hopefully this continues.

One of the mistakes we make most, unfortunately, is that we cannot turn crisis moments into opportunities. Eth's 80 dollars to fall to the times we had to invest 2 times now we had. We need to evaluate them.

Let me laugh a bit as I can see your rank and that shows you have been in this game for awhile and should know what market can be like and why we are in this state which we all know to be called bear market and nothing cause it but reaction from market as you and I used TA or chart which signify a downtrend and we all pull out which create panic and the more we panic the more the dip and same thing apply to bull market too which people fomo and increase the price of the coin.

indeed there are many possibilities that make the crypto price decrease in the market, and one of them as you said before. although it requires very large funds to play the price, it is still possible

Ethereum dropped to 80 dollar two weeks ago and it was bottom for ethereum, after this level it rised fastly and it saw 150 dollar today, I guess we won't see 80-85 dollar for ethereum again.

I came into involvement with cryptocurrency this year so I had really not with alot of ethereum drops but I must say my lowest ethereum price was this period when it drops to  below 85$

I thought ETH never fall below $ 200. It was a shock for me that Ether went down even below $ 100. But now the situation is improving.

Awesome!
It seems like I got a punch from Kana and left by a different boxing glove. LOL
If the price of Ethereum goes up to 500 USD, maybe I will dance on the beach just wearing a drawstring and shouting "Hey Sea, look Ethereum goes up again to 500 USD." ;D

Yes, now the ethereum condition is indeed at its lowest point, but now there is an increase and I am sure slowly ethereum will recover, hopefully early next year for ethereum and all coins the value will rise again to reach its normal price

Nobody knows the exact bottom of ethereum and that is true for all of financial markets. For me the price of ethereum nowadays can sit there for a while doing sideways. When a very good news about blockchain has unleash then we can be able to see price action finally making uptrend move in my own opinion.

actually it is the cause of the fall in the price of Bitcoin and not only Ethereum who experience like this fate but other coins also experienced the same thing with Ethereum. yes this is a bad year for all the coins on the market because all the coins fell with very tragically, and this is an unexpected decline. now, Ethereum has started to rise again and we will soon see a bright future from Ethereum.

Maybe anything. In 2018, I saw a very large number of similar forecasts, which today are still very different from reality, so I certainly take into account, but I do not believe such forecasts by 100%. Therefore, today there are a lot of these forecasts, we try to take it all the same not seriously.

I'm sure the Ethereum will recover within the time. The majority of Ethereum users remained confident in the brilliant future of this cryptocurrency. And it always seemed to me that Ethereum is the main alternative to bitcoin.

Now, indeed, ethereum is at a low price, but before, it has also been like this and bounced back, I believe ethereum will recover and return to its normal price, but we must be patient to wait for the recovery of ethereum again.

I guess 80 dollar was lowest price for ethereum and I wonder will we see it again at this price but if it happen I expect 70 dollar for eth at least, otherwise I don't think invest to it now.

it seems like this is a cycle where when there is one coin that experiences a drastic decline like Bitcoin, other coins will follow it and I believe Ethereum will return to its peak because now the price of Ethereum has slowly risen.

It got worst this time around, there were many things at play which led to the dump that never ended. Manipulations were high and many lost fate thereby leaving their positions at a very big loss.

This year, due to the bear market, in addition to the fall of Bitcoin, ethereum strongly depends on which, it was also a bad time for the project, which greatly influenced the coin. I am sure that she will show good growth

I see many people speculating that at the beginning of the year the crypto value will increase again, but they simply cannot provide a compelling reason why this can happen, I just want to find a strong reason that will make me believe but until now I still can't find it
so what are your reasons for believing that at the beginning of the year the market will increase again?

Finding dip is dangerous game if you don't have idea what kind of setups you are looking for. Buying in small steps will reduce average risks rather than playing this meaningless hunting game.

The only reason is simple, a lot of investors dumped their coin. For some unknown reason, they just happen to gave up on their coin which is very uncharacteristic of them as they've been patient through out the years. Maybe they reached their limit and chose to let go and end their suffering.

All behind the fall in prices is due to a decrease in BTC prices and of course the altcoin will follow it and if we pay attention not only Ethereum has decreased prices, but almost all new tokens have experienced the same thing but I do not know happens to Crypto because the price at any time can change very quickly.

It is likely that after the next price drop in the crypto market, we will see Ethereum and below $ 80. But I would not want to happen. I like it a lot more when Ethereum grows in price.

The ETH downtrend is indeed quite severe. Besides the influence of the price of BTC which also dropped dramatically, there were many other factors that influenced it. One of them is the issue of the many holders who sell their Eth. In addition, the price increase in 2017 has overpriced so it is natural that in 2018 there will be a decline.

Ethereum's reference in developing technology and also maintaining its professionalism to continuously improve its performance has proven satisfying. With ethereum prices declining this will make it a supportive moment to collect more ethereum and wait for the increase to come back. If it doesn't happen this year, at least ethereum is believed to be able to continue to rise again along with the recovery of the crypto market in the near future.

Anything is possible today the market can demonstrate very different situations, especially when there are opportunities to really improve positions in the cryptocurrency sector. I think that the best thing would probably still be not to miss this moment with the ETH project, because this is a really valuable experience.

true, many ETH holders made sales which resulted in a decrease because ETH demand was still small so there was no supply. the market will affect demand and the large amount of large investor confidence this year. hopefully at the beginning of the year there will be more improvements and the return of investors for better prices.

It seems to me that behind this are the whales and large financial corporations, as well as the unlimited emission of Ether.

Nothing, there are no negative news connected to cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrencies are being developed everyday, everyday they are stronger and stronger, but current market manipulation cause that price is falling without any explanation.

We saw a mark of $ 82. Who would have thought that such a thing could happen? But still we all saw it.
I think it is planned.
Of course, first of all, the price began to decline, after all, the entire market underwent a deep correction. But since the autumn of 2018, everyone noticed an extremely rapid fall in prices. Do you think Constantinople was postponed by accident? I'm sure not. This is part of the plan. Thus, the big players, together with the team of the Ethereum, were able to sell many eth at a higher price and buy back around $ 80-90.

I sell my ethereum at a panic market price ..I sell my ethereum when ethereum gone to $80  and I sold my $1500 ethereum dollars. So panic sell , attacks my heart.

for 2018, I think the lowest price of ethereum is at $ 80 even though some times it was below that price but it didn't last long. it looks like the price will go to $ 280 later this year

At the moment, the price is relatively rising but I think it is not necessary to indulge in euphoria as there is a risk of another fall. Maybe I'm wrong.

Ethereum has the lowest price,yeah. On the other hand this lowest price is something you can take into account.
This low price is an opportunity for you!
Don't miss this opportunity,buy ethereum!

As they say the year is not over yet. The crypto market may well prepare us a gift in the form of a New Year's collapse. Everything is extremely unpredictable. And this is great!

Ethereum will continue to grow. As soon as the bullish market cycle begins, the ether will grow faster than anyone else. See how much ICO is frozen and how much market growth is expected.

Yes, Ethereum fell heavily. The fall of the air is associated with Bitcoins and the general situation on the cryptocurrency market, a decline in investor interest and a ban on ICO in China. The combination of these factors has shaken the position of Ethereum.

Why are you selling Ethereum?
Ethereum is probably the best coin on the market now , and I am sure that in the future the price will be much more than this, at $ 80 you had to buy and not sell(((

Most likely, we have already passed the lowest price and we probably will not return to such low prices. Although anything can happen (

I believe in eth and with optimistic watching in future. Eth is very demand coin and have strong team.

I think this guy kidding

Early 2018 the price of the ETH was only $9 so we are far away from that price as this year`s dip was around $ 80.
It is always an opportunity for those who missed to invest in ETH to jump the train.

In this situation, everything is very difficult and it will be difficult for us to understand exactly what it really is, so the main thing here is to send everything that can be done in the right direction. This is really cool.

What else is Ethereum capable of and the entire ICO sphere can be judged only after a strong increase in the prices of coins, and until then we are just engaged in divination on the coffee grounds

It seemed to me that 200 dollars is a very good price to buy ether. But at the moment I understand that the best price was the price of $ 80.

ETH lowest price in the market is below $90 in this year and the reason for the falling price is still not clear enough for me.
Although ethereum was experiencing a decline price last year, this year is worse because last year ETH price was rising great at the end of 2017.

If the decline that occurred in the previous year was not as bad as this, in the future he would be able to jump very high. Will a very bad decline at this time make the crypto get a much higher jump than before? The weakening condition of ethereum at this time does not make it negligent in its projects to continue to implement the platform to existing projects. Of course, that will make the ethereum grow stronger for the longer term.

See every time market situation will not be upwards trend and sometimes we have to face the downward situation in order to increase its further level. For everything we need patience in the market without patience, it is impossible to secure profits in crypto trading.

From what i know, that is because there are so many bad news saying bad things about ethereum. that makes people worried and then sell their ethereum directly without even thinking what will happen next to ethereum. and it makes another people also feeling worried if they will loose.

Last year's cryptocurrency market was very good, but after a year, many ICO projects have suffered a lot of investment enthusiasm. The price of ETH is driven by ICO. As the ICO decreases, the price of ETH gradually decreases.

I think that ethereum at such prices should be perceived with joy because it is unlikely that there will be a similar one more opportunity to buy it so cheaply.

Whenever the price of a coin plunges, there is always a factor or some factors behind it. Sometimes, some people think its only shit coins that plunge, howbeit, it can also happen to genuine ones.
We are in bear market and Ethereum is not the only coin that us affected. Ever since it's been observed that so many investors have decided to pause investing in the crypto market, the marketcap has been reducing, so no one wants to buy coin at high rate, because they are afraid of what might happen next.
Nonetheless, improvement is now gradually setting in.

the current price decline cannot be compared with last year's decline, because crypto prices fluctuate so that increases or decreases depend on demand, so if demand for coins is low then prices will drop, every minute there will be price movements in crypto

there must fundamental that be the reason for this decline.since the begining year to many fud and negative news come to market.and this thing make investors and holder panic so they selling all of their asset till now on.

And the price of $ 80 is real, even today, can be considered very good. Because today there are simply no such prices. I think and I hope that all the same there will be really something good and the world will eventually be able to improve the situation so that people can better instill crypto.

Behind the fall is the correction of bitcoin. It goes down and the whole market also goes down but I think this is a temporary phenomenon especially since the Ethereum development team is doing an update under the name Ethereum 2.0 and there will be a hard fork ahead.

You must know that bitcoin is very binding on the market, because of that the effect of decline or growth will affect all crypto traded.
but this is not the end of special crypto trading for eth, I think there are some new rumors for eth next year, one of which is a hard fork that allows growth to occur.

my opinion is that the cryptocurrency market is subject to constant speculation, whales creating news backgrounds fully control the situation when you need to buy or sell. And people mostly trust new news or celebrity advice and do the wrong thing. Now on the market to panic and need not sell but rather to buy it, always proceed in the opposite direction of panic waves.

I guess it is not just the Ethereum that falls in the 2018 period. The market is all down and we cannot really say what affects it in a major way but I think it is because of the worthless coins in the market and it all needs to be kicked out in order for the market to stabilize.

I really appropriate your thinking mate you must be a wise thinker who knows well about the crypto currency. It is for sure great time because people has  been waiting since long to see their money grow in many more kind of business but here spending time is so promising. So buy at this cheap price for your future.

The main thing is that by the time of the update the market began to recover, only then the effect of the update will be maximum, otherwise everything can be in vain, at least in the beginning

And this is really very cool news, because today there are very high hopes at ETH after the last fork of the ETH will have something very weighty that in general it will be possible to compare BTC already, therefore we are trying to fix everything now

It depends on market conditions. It's not only ethereum that go deep. Full market crashed and almost all platform based token dupm hard.
As a project ethereum is good but they have many problem. And after ethereum 2.0 announcement we saw a good swing in price of ethereum. In think when market goes up ethereum will recover it's price. And Ethereum will recover fully when ethereum 2.0 will launch. The ico market is down in 2018. And Ethereum is the biggest platform for icos so this falls effects ethereum price. But it will recover soon.

The lowest ethereum price is currently $ 80, I was also surprised and didn't know what caused it to drop dramatically. But now there are fewer significant improvements. We need to be patient to go back up.

I think the price of Ethereum could drop to $ 80 again. Now the crypto-currency market is very thin and at any moment there can be a sharp jump in prices, but still I think that Ethereum will grow well this year.

Ethereum lowest price was almost 84 and now is going to moon and doubled in few days and in coming days will grow more and will not come back again, will always high from previous price.

Price will decrease because tge market dwcrease too but don't worry because the lower price only the ethereum this year is under $100 ans be prepare again to see the value of the ethereum again to see thousands of sollars in the next few months or frist quater of 2019

Price is lowest point for last 6 month if i checked it correctly. Altcoins try to find the gaps in pirce imbalance due to current price of ethereum. Eth already broke the support level and sky is no more limit.

I think we have seen the bottom of Ethereum for the year 2018 which $84. The price of ethereum is falling as a result of market correction. We hope to see it recover soon.

We need not only patience, we need very serious news. Because if not serious news today, we will not be able to increase interest in ETH and not only to it, today we need to talk in general about the whole cryptocurrency world.

Now almost all coins are going through very difficult times because of the current situation on the crypto market. But I believe that Ethereum in any case will be able to restore its high positions, will benefit the digital society. Therefore, I continue to buy Eth at the current low price of less than $ 100. As you can see, these days, its value reached 170$

At that time maybe a lot of people and some miners sell it because they wait for long for a grow and not come and this caused the price goes down, but now more investors come again and buy and this is very good for crypto.

ETH is the coin that has proven itself and is essential for the crypto market. The price may go down, but I am sure it will recover soon. The last increase is proof of this, and I believe it will be continuous.

all investors cannot predict for sure the development of everything can happen without anyone being able to know with certainty for me that confidence and patience is the best

Now the price of Ethereum is really very low. I believe that this is not a global market trend at all, but simply attempts at manipulation. In any case, reliable coins will eventually restore their positions. Therefore, I am sure that buying Ethereum at less than $ 100 will be a very profitable investment.

The makrets have been recovering quite well over the last couple of months, and ETH looks strong. I would think that ETH will continue to rise and do well as the whole market rises, and it does still look low relative to BTC, so I'd expect it to rise vs BTC as well. ETH is still fundamentally a very strong project and the number one smart contract platform.

By hearing the news that ethereum prices are very low of course this is quite surprising even though I think it's time we buy ethereum as you say because at a low price we can invest and can make big profits but we also have to be patient

The value of ethereum is still in the popular situation so we cannot made the confusion while investing and the price is low now so that investment is based on very low price will definitely go up in the future so I am trying to take the chances right now and made by investment to get the profit again in next few years.

be patient from? I will not be patient to invest in ethereum. I see the market showing a positive trend by moving up. I will not wait until the price rises again. see now ethereum every day has an increase even though in a small nominal value.
