Ethereum has suddenly decided that’s it going to banish coronavirus blues for us and make us all happy, and what I mean to say is that we’re witnessing a nice upward movement in Ethereum prices, which is bringing much needed relief in these troublesome times. Also I do believe that we shall witness more upward movements soon in Ethereum prices, and hopefully it’ll break the $200 mark by April end and then continue it’s upwards journey.

For the past few days now, things have been rosy for ETH and bitcoin and the prices have been moving up and just few minutes ago, the ETH hit above 180 dollars even though we are in weekend in which volume trading use to be reduced. Hopefully there will not be a major correction so that in the coming week, ETH can be projected to reach 200 dollars

So are we gonna see another hype for the upcoming ethereum 2.0 if it continues? Even if it's the highest gaining coin right now, I still think that it's because of Bitcoin. All these altcoin charts becomes useless every time Bitcoin dives. Investors would instantly sell and we have all seen that in the past.

I have seen predictions that the next Eth peak will be near6k personally i will be happy with even 2 to 3k range. Regarding current scenario i will really turn bullish when eth will break 400 mark which it has failed to break after creating all time high but we all know it has hit 250 280 and 360 too so for me breaking 400 is crucial for long term bulls.

As I can see on the CMC the whole market was in color green not only the Ethereum price. I never doubt Ethereum also has potential and it is good coin because of the unique smart contract. Maybe this volume 2.0 will change the price of Ethereum price but I think not only Ethereum and also Bitcoin. Let just wait what will happen next, fasten your seatbelt.

I think it is just too early to be jumping with joy for Eth bulls, in my opinion bitcoin halving event can push the market that will also have positive effect on Eth price also we should remember Eth 2.0 will also role out in coming months so its success is going to be important for Eth bulls.

As traders and crypto investors we have different entry point to trade and different exits; so you should not generalize.

For me, the uptrendd in etherum price has caused me to sell on profit and wait for a lower spike.

For other people; it is their entry point to hodl further.
Same situation; different actions

If that happens then a lot of people will dance with joy for Eth has defeated the power of CORONAVIRUS. Once it hits $200 by April ending that means we will see more Bullish trends

this prediction seems to fast for me, i hope to see 400 this year, but not expect it that sudden, especially due to corona situation, but until the end of the year, if everything goes well with ETH2.0 it should do his upward line

Ethereum shown 6% price growth in the last 24 hours and looks positive to be honest even the whole crypto market is.So its time to accumulate bitcoins and other good crypto currencies especially after halving the price bloom will become more higher if the trend follows until halving.

i think it is about to happen. i have been a proud supporter and long term holder of ethereum. I expect to see the price raise more than this. the ethereum price has fallen below 200 usd price mark for long and it is unexpected for the 2nd most cap cryptocurrency sell below 200. MY TA could be wrong because i saw some huge buy on binance recently.

Although Ethereum has increased significantly in recent days, I think it will not be able to rise too high in the near future.
The tokens released on the ethreum platform are dying quickly and the release of version 2.0 is halted indefinitely. The above reasons will bring the price of ethreum down again.

Eth price has not been stable for long and I doubt this time will be different. I have some Eth I hold for the very long term but I'm not expecting anything different in the price from past monthly records. If Btc prices crashes suddenly Eth will follow suit.

Oh! That's my favourite coin. I knew it would come to this. The coin has got its bearing and that is what I have long been aiming at.
If it is able to break $200, then bull seems to be certain anytime soon, because BTC will not also stop growing. This is also time for all ERC20 tokens to get on their feet and start moving uptrend as ETH is rising. It is actually time to fill the wallet with more of Ethereum because it is not a shit coin.

Is this just hype that makes us feel very happy with this news? Is this confirmed? Or is this the same as other hype issues that will only last a while?

Unfortunately, we are often told to this news, and in fact, this is only temporary and can not be ascertained. Therefore, it would be better if we are wiser in addressing such issues. We may be grateful and happy at all, but still in a normal condition and do not panic sell / buy. Stay abreast of market developments, progress analysis shown in Ethereum's coin market chart.

Beyond that, basically, Ethereum is a coin that is truly trusted and good for us to have. It is a worth it coin as well.

What will make us very happy and relieved is that when this coronavirus is ended, we can live well and normally again, no worry everywhere and be safe and calm in doing all activities around the world.

A friend I am helping to trade ethereum had asked me to sell off at $171 before correction to $155, and when it was at $155, I told him I need to buy back he said he will call back after his reviews, I disturbed him but he won't when it finally hit $180, he asked me to buy any good coin at my discretion I posted him a disagreement Meme, meaning I won't be part of his emotional trading. I am unhappy what he caused himself.

Ethereum rose 8% for today I think OP it can reach $200 within few days from now. There are lots of demand on every exchange and Im not sure whats the cause of such rise.

I know ethereum migration will be delay for a while or if nor by 2020 probably the following years. It seems decentralized finance working out for ethereum dApps. Has anybody feeling bullish about ethereum? I think they can still rise even with corona virus still out there.

Ethereum has good foundation so no doubt they will increase when bitcoin is also in the upward movement. It is really one of cryptocurrencies that is really worth investing and hodling. I think this is my number 2 choice after bitcoin. You can feel that they will not collapse by any means.

I think ethereum was able to achieve that 200$ mark because of Bitcoin, looking at the charts its shows that ethereum can't do a thing without big brother, if Bitcoin is not rising ethereum ain't going nowhere

I am very confident in the potential of ethereum, because we know that many new coins have been created. But until now no one has been able
defeat ethereum. So I also agree that ethereum going upwards, as seen in the market, ethereum prices start to rise to $ 184. This increase will
continue until halving occurs, my prediction ethereum this year could reach a price of $ 500. So if we still are save ethereum just hold, for those
who do not have ethereum now, it's time to buy. Before ethereum prices went up.

I don't know I am feeling nervous to trade with Ethereum! Ethereum growth makes me crazy! In this tough situation of World market, Ethereum is really doing very well, did not expect this rally at this moment! I think Ethereum price will hit 200$ surely!

And I was hoping that Ethereum would fall. I wanted to buy coins for $ 100. Apparently not fate. Although it is not worth affirming anything. Everyone can be wrong, I can be wrong, and big players can be wrong. Ethereum for $ 200 is also good.

yes a few days ethereum shows a very good movement and could have reached the price of $ 200 but that's if bitcoin maintains its price. if bitcoin falls, of course ethereum will follow it

Ethereum is the strongest bag of mine and definitely has more chances to have a better gain when altcoin booming. The demand for Ethereum is always there even when the market at a downtrend. Everyone hodl Ethereum at bit there and here so no need to remind. ;D

Yes, that is something that is very likely to happen, especially now that Ethereum's price is already at $ 183.79 in general, and it will be very possible if this year rises to $ 200 if Bitcoin continues to show price increases in the crypto market.

It can be achieved easily and there was a little gap before we can break $200 again. The fact that there will be a huge hype for the ethereum 2.0 for sure. This time people just realize about the testnet and they have already started to be a validator in the test net. 32ethereum as the deposit to be a validator will actually give a huge impact.

     I think you are still too optimistic. Certainly during this pandemic period no bull run will come. It is simply an increase in the price of ETH but that does not guarantee us a rapid increase or a maintenance of the current price in the long term. However, I think you are exaggerating when talking about the bull run at any price fluctuation.

This is good for the market we need something to spark the bull run since all the This is just Testnet, people should not jump on the it now if you miss out, the price is going to correct and you will opportunity to buy for the release of their Mainnet, so if you want to stake, get ready your 32K ethers.

It's really interesting to see ETH is pumping and many ethereum analyst believe that the second largest crypto currency will pump by atleast 25%.

The recent bullish trend is now the key factor for other altcoins as well, As ETH goes above $180 there might be a strong momentum for the next few days and I wish it should keep going on the same track like now..

 

Ethereum is like an inflated balloon and has remained in that state ever since the ICO market got destroyed in 2018. If anyone thinks that a new ATH will be reached within the next 2-3 years, then I have to say that he is just day-dreaming. The hype which we had in 2017 is never going to repeat. And worse still, the promoters won't be able to keep ETH alive for too long by propping up the Ethereum 2.0 idea. People are just running out of patience with ETH 2.0. Do they have any concrete plans for that?

From 188$ now drops again to 184$ but not bad because it has a 8% growth over 7 days and Not a bad performance considering that we are still in pandemic season,.

What testnet?and what do you also mean for "People should not Jump on"/are you referring to something not right if we invest in ethereum now?

Yes, that's right, tokens like Ethereum are always in demand in the market even though market conditions are down, because Ethereum is a token that is already very strong and popular in the crypto room, so it's only natural that Ethereum will continue to grow and be in demand by many people in conditions and situations any.

If ethereum will continue to spike then a good opportunity for those who hold ethereum through those days of low price. Even there is a crisis globally crypto market condition is still showing a good response and a hope for many to see this may continue. So holding is a good option though.

Concrete plan? I don't know about that. The last time I checked, released dates are being pushed and proposals from different ethereum devs were being discussed. This is the best I can give you - Ethereum 2.0 Phases (https://docs.ethhub.io/ethereum-roadmap/ethereum-2.0/eth-2.0-phases/)

I'm not sure about being inflated since the 2018 crash. It's still a speculative asset like many other coins/tokens. Whether eth will reach new ATH of get close to its previous ATH depends on the launching of eth 2.0 (and bitcoin price of course).

Edit: This thread was recently posted and you might want to follow it too - ETH 2.0 testnet is alive and running (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5241715.0)

Very likely that it will break $200 before April ends. I have heard the update that they have been testing the network for the last update that we're all waiting for.
Once it becomes stable, investors and holders of Ethereum who want to earn through their program and new consensus will be quick to get their Eth's and put it as their stake.

If this good trend last longer untill end of this month it will be a good news to whom buy ETH on lower prices. Growing price on pandemic situation is awesome actually. There is an oppurtunity if invest on ETH i think its a good choice to who wants invest on crypto.

Ethereum is gradually gaining some momentum which I which it may last atleast for some time to come but don't let down your guide you never can tell what will happen in the next couple of days.

Not just on bitcoin, ETH must also grow more and it should not be depended to bitcoin. We know the halving is coming with bitcoin and we will see at least a pump that time and only the strong altcoins can follow that trend, ETH should be on that. Its good that I fill up during the $100 price, i can’t wait to see the pump with ETH.

Ethereum is in pump when Bitcoin halving time is near future. Although this isn't huge recover as Ethereum price was dumped in last two years. Correction is for help price to start bullrun. It's too early to recover, after Bitcoin halving cryptocurrency will literally recover. Top coin buying time is getting over, correction will be very low after Bitcoin halving.

I noticed ETH is slowly pumping up.
Maybe theres a good effect because of the pandemic.
So i think bitcoin will pump proportionally with Ethereum.
Hoping that this will be the same as 2017 pump .

I also suspect that the movement of ethereum will be very good for this year. until now, the movements have indeed followed the price of bitcoin, but in response to the rise in bitcoin prices, ethereum responded that it was quite good. I also hope that the price of ethereum can reach $ 200 at the end of this April, but at least the price of bitcoin needs to reach $ 7500. I think bitcoin and ethereum go hand in hand in this recovery.

200$ is Ethereum's strong resistance it may be rejected. Because the momentum price of ETH is weak. The coming Bitcoin halving does have some positive affect to Ethereum price as we see it increase continuously last days. But the the momentum is weak, a surprise dump can happen.

Why do you say that the ETH price momentum is weak? while in history Ethereum prices have exceeded the price of $ 200, and it seems you are a little wrong in understanding the price of Ethereum, so try to look at the price chart that has happened to Ethereum from January 2016 to March 2020.

Ethereum is of course the top altcoin and the most sought-after, and therefore I constantly invest in ethereum when the price of ethereum drops very much and I have been waiting for a long time and I hope that ethereum will start to grow in price soon.

That increase could be contributed to probably the testnet of 2.0 being live. I was expecting the development to be postponed because of the pandemic and everything coming to a halt for a while however now that I realize it maybe staying at home made them work harder because they were capable of being more focused on the development without really having to deal with anything else.

Of course this is just the testnet and we are going to see a lot of bugs and glitches with it and there will be a lot of troubles that will cause set back, that could even damage the price eventually when it is figured out but that is a long term better thing because with all the wrong things found there, it will lead to original being a lot more stronger adn increase the price even more.

Maybe he meant that the current state of ETH price is rather fragile (which i dont agree ofc) and can be dumped anytime. The fact that 2.0 is up could very well means that ETH will finally have a chance to drive its price up since it's what the fan of ETH has long awaited although the impact will significantly less due to covid-19 but no one knows for sure.

Only when there is information about ETH 2.0, this coin can increase well, but until then, you will have to wait for a long time because the situation of covid-19 is now more and more complicated. However, if there is a vaccine, everything will return to normal and the value of many altcoins will soon return to the highest price. For me, this is a great time to invest and will invest more if possible.

Honestly I did not expect that ETH can rise up to this kind price this time around.  All my thought was that, before things will start change for better, probably it will be after or towards the end of the pandemic, though not the disease that affected the price totally.  Anyway, I'm so glad that if this can be happening at a very challenging time like this, then there is a strong hope in ETH that it can survive any hard time. 
#hopealive #upeth

You're making some fair comments about the possible setbacks that testnet may encounter in the long term but I think for now it's safe to say that this development nevertheless has strengthen ETH's position in the market and I can' t help but speculate that the other cryptos will follow, that's for the short term at leat.

This is not impossible for ethereum to soar high again its price as it has its unique potential even in the previous years. This is a good price movement in the market because this just proves that crypto community cannot be totally down even if there is a pandemic happening. Hopefully this is not just another hype that will suddenly dump its price again after a sudden pump.

that's right! The price of Ethereum will continue rising as its launch of Proof of Stake is approaching as well as Bitcoin halving also approaching. This is the best time to purchase more of Ethereum and hold for a very midterm profits once they launch their Proof of Stake protocol.

The effect of bitcoin halving might not be much, but I believe that Ethereum will grow even if Bitcoin does not. The pace at which ETH is going is currently high. The 24 hours percentage difference is higher for ETh, compared to most of the top coin.

Do you have any specific reason that will causing ethereum price going upward ?
Usually, when the bitcoin price going upward, the ethereum will going upward too. For now, the market seems still going upward and downward as well.

Ethereum will likely break $200 before Q2
And more to come on Q3

Already stacked a number of Ethereum park in my wallet
And was waiting for Staking to be launch then everything will be smooth

waiting for the price of bitcoin to be $ 10k. that way, the current ethereum price could be $ 250, or even more. Well, I also support that the price of ethereum can reach $ 200 in the near future. for now, it looks like the price is really following the bitcoin price movements.

The last time I checked Ethereum seems to be following the movement of bitcoin and their chart looks quite similar.
I have noticed a few other cryptocurrencies that are similar to what we have on the Bitcoin chart, that includes XRP, BCH, Litecoin and Stellar, they are all moving the same way as BTC.

I am looking forward to an increase in Ethereum price. It has been at the rate of $170, and I am looking forward to the BTC Halving to influence the price of ETH heavily and make it increase to a very high price. It has been a very long time that we have been waiting for the price to go up, and it has been on the low.

I think the ongoing week is very important for the direction of Eth, if the weekly candle closes green in nice momentum then i expect more growth and if we see red candle it can turn the direction downwards.

Ethereum will not go up until Bitcoin set the trend, and nowadays, it is 50-50 where the market goes. Stock market, especially OIL is crashing, so we can´t be very optimistic about cryptocurrency´s growth.  :'(

In recent days, the price of ethereum looks good and continues to rise against Bitcoin. But seeing global conditions that are still uncertain, I think it still takes a long time for many crypto to recover, especially ethereum

This is common analysis and perhaps if you dont notice. Almost all coins in the market have the same movement mostly those majority coins.

The only coin that keeps increasing is binance coin. Yes, they are an exchange platform and we can see how great their CEO imposing different activity on their platform that makes them competitive. I also seen the urge of ethereum platform doing the same, as they release the update on ethereum 2.0 and everything smoothly turns out at it is. Lets just hope for fast pacing of these activities.

ethereum price is quiet stable as of the moment.. reaching back to 200USD is big goal already..maybe that is the impact of ethereum 2.0

Ethereum has been facing a huge increas while bitcoin was very stable and why is it possible to happen with ethereum?

WTF is that? crypto has nothing to do with the stock market or oil market. Crypto stand by its leg dude. It can recover to the above 200 again.

I have bought last March in $100 level value so speaking today
yeah i am in profit by 100% more
 but i can still see the potential of another growth because there
 are so many noise now about
the ethereum 2.0 in which i think advantage for ethereum as the
 another Halving of Bitcoin wil
 happen ,so basically there are 2 chances for ETH to go Haven
(though this damn corona virus makes the market badly)
but stays in holding just like OP tells us there is a big possibilities that
Climbing back to 4 digits again is indeed.

ETH is already above $200. I still hold it. I bought it at March and get decent profit now. I still hold because ETH is my long term investment, with the inside potential of ETH i believe it will climb up $500 soon. Keep holding guys it's not time to sell now.

I think the price of Ethereum is going to go up and up and up again. On one hand, I think it's a grand experiment in computer science, but on the other hand, it's a thing that won't last too long. People think it's going to be this big thing. But I don't think people have fully grasped that reality yet. I just hope that something happens before all of that goes

so far we are still waiting for the increase, but there has not been a large increase in ethereum prices. besides, don't be so sure that ethereum prices can reach 4 more digits. even to reach the price of $ 500 is quite difficult now. Well, right now I really want to see ethereum prices above $ 250. at this time I have prepared some ethereum for that.

The last ATH of Ethereum price happened because of 2017 bullrun, I don't know why people want the price to go over 250$ price so badly, the 1500$ ATH value can only happen again if Bitcoin goes over 20k once again

I think that will happen, but in recent days the price of ethereum itself has been slightly upward shifted and in some cases there has been a very significant decline but I think after this there will be an upward or upward shift to ethereum itself

Firstly BTC should break 12k or even 15k to let altcoins fly. Unfortunately, positive news are not effecting the biggest altcoins, everything depends on BTC nowadays. But I am sure after a certain price level of BTC, other altcoins will get more and more independent

Im hodl eth for so long and we still below 250... Right now even below 200

That's why I still hold it some ETH until now. I know it's potential in the near future. Maybe hold it a little longer will be worth. It seems ETH price keep growing day by day.

ETH mostly followed bitcoin and if you are aiming for much higher profits then holding your assets for much longer time will give you the chance of achieving it. It's good if you have spare money to invest with good project like ETH cause eventually the value will spike and bring decent benefits,
to those who are planning it's not late yet if you do aimed long term benefits.
