Your looking at it Fraudcache..
I was answering your question before..
you are looking at it !I said the audience left when the hype died down.
A good metric of this statement is the fact that we went from page 1 here to being all Ethereum topics to almost none these days.. it's a clear indication the the interest of the community has veered off into other directions.
(
or the paid hype / spam campaigners got laid-off)
And only fools play the dead coin debate game here.
We all know damn well coins do not die.
Even if 100% delisted they have come back from the dead.
All it takes is 1 guy who stored the block chain on his hard drive to re-launch it.
I could do that myself with a couple coins LOL
So.. we are really only ever talking about the degree of deadness.
A popularity level metric if you will.
Every person in Crypto knows the more pumped & hyped up a coin gets the less likely it can actually
die dieas in the coin no longer functions and has no supporters at all.
Why ?
Well let me continue to once again as always state the painfully obvious
to shout over your deceitful shill games spamming..
When a coin like ETH or Doge rises up enough with enough popularity it becomes a target.
There will always be some users that will buy the coin in the hopes of the coin getting a price boost.
It's the cheapest coin syndrome.. linked to past popularity.
So.. if we take that into consideration then how do we define Ethereum as dead ?
A loss of popularity.
How would we know ?
Well price would be an indicator but Ethereum (
the most manipulated Altcoin in history) is.. well..
Still manipulated LOL

If bad news comes up the dev's lower the safety walls and Poloniex etc simply freeze the markets..
So the price can not drop as it SHOULD naturally.
It is a facade being perpetuated on Crypto.. by criminals.
