Everything is connected to Bitcoin. If Bitcoin surprise us with rates over 10,000 USD, then Ethereum will get to 500 USD or more. If Bitcoin continue to gravity around 3000-5000 USD, then I don't thing there is a chance Ether to near close to 500 USD. I think people are overrating the ETF hype.

of course because what I see the increase in crypto prices supported by good news, if the second ETF is approved, I am sure the price of ETH and other coins will go up

[deadthings]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

I think it will depend on two things. That's what you wrote, so ETF approval and successful Ethereum hardfork. If both events will be positive, I am sure that at the end of the year the price of ETH will be at least $500.

[jt byte]

It's quite possible, it all really depends on ETF, but 500 $ is not so high and unreal goal, 2019 won't be definitely huge bomb in crypto, but some growth we will see. 

[jacafbiz]

I don't see the price of Ethereum at $500 unless BTC reached a figure like $6k and above this year, the whole market is BTC dependent and as long as the trade of Ethereum is against BTC it will continue to dictate its price also remember that the ICO party seems over and BNB tokens is entering into the ICO game which will surely have impact on the growth of Ethereum

[mekar sari]

It's quite possible, it all really depends on ETF, but 500 $ is not so high and unreal goal, 2019 won't be definitely huge bomb in crypto, but some growth we will see. 

why are you so sure no one has risen high this year , now all coins are green and in my opinion this is one sign that the bull run will come, so it's better to see the reality that is happening

[investtra]

Ethereum reaches $ 500 for this year, I think it's very difficult. But everything can happen because we see that throughout 2018 prices continue to decline. And I am sure that by 2019 this will definitely be reversed, so the Crypto market will continue to increase.

[evanescence]

$500 is quite optimistic but $200 is achievable imho - inflation rate is dropping and technical innovations are being introduced.

[cryptojac17]

of course because what I see the increase in crypto prices supported by good news, if the second ETF is approved, I am sure the price of ETH and other coins will go up

Good news could help ethereum meet the good demands in the long run, and as the community became more popular it's always possible that the value will increase in the future. Don't rush everything because we need patience in order to achieve a good results, and that $500 can be meet.

[rosebrand]

yes of course ethereum will definitely be able to reach that price again if hardfork ethereum can achieve success, maybe it can reach the price you say, but if the second ETF is approved it can bring positive news. because by agreeing to the second ETF in the presence of sure positive news all coins will get a significant pump not just ethereum.

[jossiel]

I'm bullish on ethereum but I don't want speculate these days. If you'll ask me if it's going to reach $500 by this year, I don't know but if you'll ask me if I want to see ethereum go $500 by this year, of course!

We are still not sure on how much the effect of ETF that will be created to the crypto market once it is approved. It's not only bitcoin that will have that positive effect but also including Ethereum and some other notable coins.

[coinluisa]

That's true  it will happen the move up of price if the ETF approved and if the eth hard fork will be successful. But who knows we are still the starting the year so many things will be happen so let see.

[bitkanu]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

It will, ETF has become the main problem why bitcoin gets a big dump in the past and when it get approve by the US regulators and there will be another FOMO to the crypto and i just try to prepare m,y self for that dude. It looks so easy for ether when there is a big bullish trend.

[Oceat]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

Not gonna happen, mate, you must have to expect Bitcoin first to grow so then Ethereum will follow as to what you have expected. Everything is connected to the Bitcoin market once the market is able and continue to grow you will see a slight grow on it and to the other altcoins as well. I wouldn't expect about the ETF or bakkt either because i don't think they could make a change in the market.

[frcat]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

Why you have so big hopes for ETFs while some biggest things must happens in this year? I think launch of Fidelity and Bakkt platform much more important, because big institutional investors will come with huge money in crypto market.

[pacman7331]

I think ETH will hit more than 500 USD. I have an option to believe it. I think after Constantinople hard fork Eth network will be very fast and upgraded and then we can see a different, better Ethereum network. And then the ETH market can be boosted too. So, It is not impossible for ETH to cross 500 USD. Let's hope for the best.

[abstractednerve]

I have no hope about the SEC approving ETF! And I don't think ETH can make 500 USD this year. Because, the market chart says a bearish market will come again, and BTC price would be 2400-2800 USD! I mean, 2019 will be another bear year for the crypto market. I think ETH price will overcome 500 USD to hit 700-800 USD in mid of 2020!

[kemetz]

I am optimistic that it will be possible for ethereum prices to occur this year because growth will definitely come soon, especially if the ethereum project being developed by his team can achieve success this year. I think the price of $ 500 is not too big and ethereum never passed that price.
we just keep watching the developments and hope that by agreeing that the second ETF can bring positive news so that growth can happen soon.

[labilaab]

Highly likely eth will reach $500 or beyond if the market will recover and the bullrun will start again. But if theres no bullrun happening this year then that would be impossible in my opinion.

[mirakal]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

I'm sure we will achieve that, $500 is too easy for that big news if it will happen.
People are speculating too much on the ETF approval but denied many times that's why the market is down, and it's approval
could be a big factor to boost the price, not only for ETH but for BTC as well, just be optimistic all the time.

[bitcoin31]

500 dollars is really possible and more than that because for sure ethereum will become thousands of dollars.
Now the value of the ethereum is near to $200 and we are waiting to reach that value now and so we can able to next setp.

[yeniruieni]

Now the Crypto market is very unpredictable and the price, of course, is still unstable. But if you look at the 2018 trip that the Crypto market has declined. So I see that in 2019 the price of Crypto coins will increase. And Ethereum reaches $ 500, I think it will be achieved this year.

[ethereumhunter]

$500 will be possible for ethereum to reach in this year, but I am not sure if it will happen this year because if bitcoin cannot increase higher and stay at one high price, ethereum cannot increase higher and maybe it will stay on $200. I think people still waiting for the update of the ethereum project as we know that Constantinople has got delay again. And maybe if the update is released, it could give a good start for ethereum to increase the price.

[Buntel168]

I think it could happen, now Ethereum price slowly rise in a last few days. Ethereum will fork in the next 13 days, i hope this fork can make the price of Ethereum rise again. $500 it's possible in this year.

[silverleafy]

The main updates are set on next year, so there is no chance that Ethereum will hit 500USD without these updates. It will improve the speed, safety and scalability of the network.

[BitcoinHodler]

the reason why ETH pump was huge back in 2017 was due to the surge of ICO scams. we were having at least one per day at some point and some days even a couple of them in one day. and to invest in them you had to buy ETH and that pumped the price more than normal.

now ICOs are nearly dead and nobody is buying ETH anymore so a 5x pump is going to be nearly impossible to happen specially now that there are a lot of competing smart contract platforms that are a lot better than ethereum.

[DonFacundo]

well if sec approved ETF there is possibility that ethereum will climb up to $500 so let's see and it's good to buy more ethereum.

[giletto]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

It's too hard and it's like an impossible task. ETH can only increase to $ 20-50 and its price will be dumped because previous investors will try to sell all to reduce losses in this market.

[adamlillian]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

We do not need to talk about the SEC, we will talk about the economic situation of the world and the crypto market separately.
Currently the price of ETH is now $ 123 and for it to increase to $ 500, it must increase by more than 400%.
That means that other altcoins also have that growth.
so our market will surely increase to 400%, nearly 500 billion dollars.
That will be very difficult when our financial market is in a recession. no whales have enough money to make the value of the market grow so big.
I think, 2019 will be a stable year of crypto and we can't make a lot of money from it. let's talk about increasing more than 400% when it's 2021 or 2022.

[abahcoin]

I think, to reach $500 will be very difficult especially as the marketcap value decreases. Ethereum must be able to make a new breakthrough in the world of blockchain so that prices can return to more than $1000

[RomanZil]

Sure, we only need to wait Constantinople launch and when uptrend market return, Ethereum will likely grow faster than Bitcoin

[herfianto]

All that is possible for Ethereum. Everyone already knows the highest price of Ethereum. $500 will be achieved this year.

[hawkins]

I think, to reach $500 will be very difficult especially as the marketcap value decreases. Ethereum must be able to make a new breakthrough in the world of blockchain so that prices can return to more than $1000

reaching $ 500 won't be that easy, but I think ETH can indeed reach that price this year. although the increase is still quite difficult to see, but in a few months, I believe that the price of ETH will rise.

[Kucink]

It's too hard and it's like an impossible task. ETH can only increase to $ 20-50 and its price will be dumped because previous investors will try to sell all to reduce losses in this market.

i think it's possible for Ethereu can reach price in $500 untill the end of this year, if we see data in every end of year cryptocurrency experienced a significant increase

Nah i doubt it. Or it's more likely that eth will stay under 200 for majority of this year. I'd be surprised if it even breaks the 200usd level. Though i'm not too worried because ether is an established coin with solid following. The rise of it may not be that quick but i believe it'll peak in a few years breaking previous aths.

[incomefromcoins]

once after the eth hard fork completed and in next bull run we can expect again eth to touch 500 dollars

[dodgrad]

Everyone who observes the history of ETH and BTC prices knows that they are closely related. It all depends on whether investors will again trust in the safety of investing in cryptocurrencies. I think that there is a lot of time to the end of the year and cryptocurrencies will be able to attract new funds. In my opinion, $500 is the minimum price at the end of 2019.

[aris av]

It is still difficult to ensure that in 2019 ethereum will jump to the point of $ 500, but for the price of $ 200 - $ 300 it is likely that ethereum can reach it.

[Siren]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

No wonder it can for sure same as bitcoin but the problem is that ETF will be ever passed?for how many years that is has been pushing ?but did something happens to favor crypto?No always failure so i guess the only chance of ethereum to grow this year is if the HardFork becomes successful then it might be the way we will waiting for since i am also a ethereum holder for quite sometimes now.having this growing is a blessing for me and for many cryptonians

[Genkotsu]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

that is possible, considering that now there is a lot of good news about ethereum circulating and making investment interested in this ethereum platform, where many large companies also use this platform

[Sir Legend]

Seeing the condition of the market that is still red until now it is certainly difficult to see ethereum prices reaching $ 500 or 5x from now on, especially when there are too many speculators so that when prices rise 5% they sell immediately so prices are dumped again.

[Sephire]

It is hard to speculate how high Ethereum or other coins will get this year without seeing some strong price moves to the upside first. $500 or even a $1000 will not be a difficult target for Ethereum to achieve if a super bullrun like 2017 takes hold.

[Vispilio]

There is steadily building momentum for Ethereum in anticipation of the upcoming fork, and since this is the 3rd time they are attempting it,

the consensus expectation is that it will succeed this time and will have a positive impact on ETH price afterwards...

[Kmd91]

They'll be lucky to successfully Hard Fork.
$500, God no..

[ethereumhunter]

Seeing the condition of the market that is still red until now it is certainly difficult to see ethereum prices reaching $ 500 or 5x from now on, especially when there are too many speculators so that when prices rise 5% they sell immediately so prices are dumped again.

We will see that will happen over and over again in the market. But if there are big waves of pump coming at the market that can make the price increase higher, people will panic, and they will do a fast selling because they thought that there is something happen with the project. But still, it is difficult to see ethereum price to increase 5x from now although the possibility will always there.

[Pom_bensin]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

That can't be predicted if ethereum can be at the price of $ 500, this is still one of the things that is debated because seeing the current market conditions are in an unstable position, this hasn't shown a significant increase.

[KennyR]

Hasn't shown any significant price pumping, but the market is not that worse. With cryptocurrency things change in a very short time period. Just take into consideration the previous price pumping of ethereum. Litecoin and ethereum were almost in the same value, all of the sudden Litecoin peaked high, following which ethereum went above Litecoin and continued to reach the peak around $1500. Likewise this time too things can change in any time. Let's wait for the good.

[hell_slayer]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

That can't be predicted if ethereum can be at the price of $ 500, this is still one of the things that is debated because seeing the current market conditions are in an unstable position, this hasn't shown a significant increase.

Considering that the Vitalik and the dev team have already postponed the launch of a Constantinople hard fork several times and each time this had a negative effect on the Ethereum's price , I can assume that this will happen the next time too.
No one knows how negatively the market will react to this and where its price will fall after that, but if we add to this a global bearish trend of the whole cryptocurrency market, then the prospects for this year look depressing. I would not risk putting even a dollar on the fact that ethereum will return to the price of $ 500 this year.

[Johnzky]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

I have a big faith on ethereum but I don’t believed about ETF to bring this to growth again and reached more than 500$ within the year,what i was waiting now is the Fork in which may be considered as surviving tools from the continuous falling of this great coin

But i am happy enough to see ethreum hitting rank number 2 again from a month of losing the spot to XRP(ripple)

[watergold]

honestly, if the next 3 months ethereum price can penetrate 200 dollars, I have been very happy, at least there is hope to live again. so I will not dream to see ETH reach 500 in the near future.

[bitzizzix]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

I think the possibility of that happening, rising prices for Ethereum or other coins is everyone's hope and now the market is starting to rise slightly and green.
and in my opinion this year will approach $ 500 and the 2nd decision on ETF will affect the value of Ethereum or other coins, and bitcoin also affects the value of other coins if bitcoin rises Ethereum will adjust and we must be optimistic and hope that everything will be as expected.

[andra73]

honestly, if the next 3 months ethereum price can penetrate 200 dollars, I have been very happy, at least there is hope to live again. so I will not dream to see ETH reach 500 in the near future.

why do you think ethereum isn't alive now? look at the ethereum situation now, he is able to survive and now they are struggling to grow and maintain their position. now their daily trading volume continues to grow it will be good for future growth.

[Anies_Sandi]

it seems because I'm sure ethereum will be able to achieve that value, because from ethereum yesterday there has been a pretty good increase and many are sure that ethereuma will soar this year

[Dodoymabs]

To be honest, this question remains to be unpredictable because we have seen how the market behaves for a several months. We still didn't see any potential event that could make a sudden turn of events. But I still have a positive look at this year because all we probably want is to support with this kind of thing.

[fourpiece]

Well ,no one knows what will happen to the price of ethereum this year it might go down or up. 2018 is the worst year for crypto maybe this year is a diffetent one.

[giletto]

honestly, if the next 3 months ethereum price can penetrate 200 dollars, I have been very happy, at least there is hope to live again. so I will not dream to see ETH reach 500 in the near future.

I am the same as you, just in the first or second quarter, the price of ETH can reach 200 $, that's great, we should not set expectations too high and then continue to be disappointed like 2018

[valta4065]

This is very true. Price of all Altcoins including ETH depends on BTC ( Cryptocurrency correlation: how does altcoins depend on BTC ).    If BTC has a bull run again, who knows ETH may exceed 1000 USD.

[Cryptosaja]

I think for up to $ 500 for ethereum this year, it's very possible, because now ethereum has started to move up, hopefully it will continue to rise even though it's slow, because that's what we expect

[rysea2]

I'm not sure about that. I see the current market conditions are still very hard to experience an increase but the crypto world can surprise us. Even so, there are still many people who believe in ethereum and it could be that the crew will increase if the second ETF has been approved.

[pungopete468]

I'm not sure about that. I see the current market conditions are still very hard to experience an increase but the crypto world can surprise us. Even so, there are still many people who believe in ethereum and it could be that the crew will increase if the second ETF has been approved.

Indeed, in a situation where the market cannot be guessed, what is true or not in the future ethereum is not known whether it can still go up or it will come back down again. obviously the influence of bitcoin is quite large

[reliable]

I'm not sure about that. I see the current market conditions are still very hard to experience an increase but the crypto world can surprise us. Even so, there are still many people who believe in ethereum and it could be that the crew will increase if the second ETF has been approved.

Even if ETH doubles this year we should be very happy as currently btc is still quite low and might be it will have the bull run soon and this could just be the beginning for many altcoins and prices might than pickup after the bull run begins .

[mikaeltomcruz12]

How can this all happen if the price movement of ETH and bitcoin was so slow, we are all hoping that this will be happen very soon for 2019 for better living and earn again.

[CoinEraser]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

Nobody can really predict the price in the crypto world. Either for Bitcoin, Ethereum or any other altcoin. Of course, many people hope that the price of Ethereum will rise to 500$ this year, but it's hard to predict whether it will. My personal assessment is a no. I think we'll have to wait until 2020 or 2021 for such a price, but of course i don't know if my prediction is correct. Time will tell. 

[akram143]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

the possibility is very less because ATM will struggling a lot to improve the value from the beginning of this year but expecting a lot from ethereum will not be satisfied by itself it will be the fact so wait for at least two years to make it more powerful.

[olumyd]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

While I sincerely understand the fuzz about ETF and all crypto derivative market, I must admit that too much reliance on such instruments will render Bitcoin a little more centralized as we are more dependent on such institutions to make Bitcoin hit its hallmark. But for Ethereum, there's a lot at play that constrains the price from going any higher. My bet would be $300 with ETF approval, this is truly reasonable considering that there are many competitors - smart contracts, dapp VMs, and a host of open source entities gunning for a faster transaction throughput compared to legacy crypto blockchains.

[Joshua101101]

The probability that Ethereum will be $500 this year is almost equal to zero, can reach $200 or even $300 by the end of the year, but $500 is the price that will be with the overall growth of the market

[yohananaomi]

Although the current development is still very far from expectations but I think at a price of $ 500, ethereum will be able to reach it by the end of this year. This movement will begin in Q2, obviously everything is connected with the state of Bitcoin itself, if bitcoin has no movement then maybe ethereum will have difficulty achieving that. seeing the trend of bitcoin seems to be starting to improve and ethereum also naturally lifted, I believe that. so it's just a matter of time for ethereum to start winning the same as 2017. Even my predictions will be more than $ 500.

[smoolae]

Cannot really see ETH getting anywhere near 500 USD to be honest. Would love to see that but when the market continues to go sideways and down it just cannot happen.
Best guess from me would be something like that ETH would get near the 200 USD mark and maybe stabilize there for a while before climbing any higher.

[creeps]

Well ,no one knows what will happen to the price of ethereum this year it might go down or up. 2018 is the worst year for crypto maybe this year is a diffetent one.

We have the chance to reach the level of $500 again for ETH and I also believe that 2019 is a different year for cryptomarket, it can be the bouncing year or a much stable market where we can see a small pump and dump with the prices. Anything can happen, and the price of ETH now is still on the green candle, I hope it will continue up to the uptrend.

[Dreamchaser21]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

Yes please, I’ve been waiting for this one since last year and I hope that it will happen again this year. Though I think ETF will not be the big reason for its pump, but it will be more on the bull trend and ETH will go for the higher price again, I will just hold for long.

[michael23]

I really want to believe that growth will happen. But lately many people have been talking about it, and as we know crypto always goes against the majority. That's why I'm worried about it. Perhaps the growth of the market will be postponed for an indefinite time.

[shillerguy020]

It can not be said that this will definitely not be, in the crypto currency everything has already happened, especially when there are more than 10 months ahead, but still the probability is small, more chances for such a price in 2020

[laredo7mm]

It seems to be difficult but in 2019 there are still a few quarters and certainly will give a surprise at all times. but indeed the expectation of the community is an increase in price

[DMC_Ken]

It depends if the ethereum price get too 500$ this year, because the price of it are still in 124$, but i hope that it will get 500$ up so we can sell are tokens and get more profits.

[suzanne5223]

The probability that Ethereum will be $500 this year is almost equal to zero, can reach $200 or even $300 by the end of the year, but $500 is the price that will be with the overall growth of the market

You're right with what you said about the ETF and BAKKT to be some kind of way to centralized crypto because it was the same act that was played by the CBOE which literally lead to the dump in price of bitcoin market acouple of months. However, Ethereum will surpass the price range you mention but I dont see that happening this year though.

[Ochakemaput]

It depends if the ethereum price get too 500$ this year, because the price of it are still in 124$, but i hope that it will get 500$ up so we can sell are tokens and get more profits.

I think everyone hopes to be like you. but in reality we are still waiting for the market to grow ethereum prices and other assets. there's not much we can do now, just wait and see the market every day.

[Prosperityforall]

Yes, ethereum should reach 500$ by the end of this year, I have no doubts and I can even bet my money it will happen once within this year.

[NY-city]

It seems to be difficult but in 2019 there are still a few quarters and certainly will give a surprise at all times. but indeed the expectation of the community is an increase in price

Expectations from the crypto currency are very rarely justified, most often everything happens in the market opposite to our expectations, this is a pattern, since people are waiting for $500 this year, the chances are small

[SlimShadyMmp]

My guess is probably not i think for it to reach that height it will mean BTC crossing some figures that is probably not feasible man and if you look at the whole price chart now i think you will see for yourself that what you are calling is seriously high man

[Tyoks]

maybe it can happen if HF ethereum can achieve success will be able to return to the price that you said for this year, because this coin in my opinion is still very good and potentially good for price increases especially by seeing the progress of the project that continues to increase better. usually coins that experience HF will get a pump significantly and I hope it can happen to ethereum.

[sabine80]

i think ethereum can only reach the price of $500 when it comes to a new bull run. so should a bull run come this year, it would be possible. but without a bull run, i do not believe the price will go so far this year.

[Sephire]

$500 or even $1000 and higher is easily possible once there is a big bull run. Everyone is waiting for it whenever it happens to start this year. Until then, market is barely going anywhere and remains sideways and trend less.

[didzi]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

i think ethereum will touch $500 if the bullish trend really back to crypto industry my friend
because ethereum is the best altcoins for now 
and the green already show up,,

[Igor.J]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

Here everything will depend on the further influence of the fork and update, while everything is positive. But we know that everything can change in one moment.

[munify]

Possibly the price of $ 500 will be reached, ethereum is recovering its value and it is possible that the price of $ 500 will be achieved this year.

[Dragonrage201]

Ethereum is rising big today and appears to be heading towards $200. $500 and higher is easily possible if this is start of the next bull run.

[Naficopa]

To the end of the year is very long way ahead. If Ethereum price will be rising as we can observe now, $500 will be reached in two months and at the end of year easy will be achieved $1500.

[Dobolen]

Of course, this will be a difficult thing for Ethereum to reach $ 500 this year. But by looking at the current excellent market conditions, I am sure that Ethereum will have $ 500 this year. Indeed this feels very heavy but all this can happen.

[Cryppy_guyL]

Ethereum is rising big today and appears to be heading towards $200. $500 and higher is easily possible if this is start of the next bull run.

It will be especially easy to pass for $400-500 if at least the gradual growth continues until the Ethereum network update, which will speed up the process, although of course it is hard to believe in such a pleasant scenario

[romero121]

With the present growth pattern of ethereum it'll surely reach $500 at the earliest. Compared to many other cryptocurrencies and among the top listed altcoins ethereum has shown high growth rate over these days. Possibly it seems to be the starting point of the ethereum towards the next level of growth.

[johnwoodworth598]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

It is hard to say what therefore, it seems to me that this year is unlikely to be worth 500 dallars, but I hope, but now I will be 300 dollars worth this year.

[evanescence]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

A day or two in the green shouldn't get you into FOMO mode, Ethereum has enormous potential but ICOs still have ETH to dump. The increase in price will be slow and gradual.

[boranes]

Here we go again, small pump and will ethereum go to insert random value threads.

It is hard to say what therefore, it seems to me that this year is unlikely to be worth 500 dallars, but I hope, but now I will be 300 dollars worth this year.

Reading good news about bitcoin lately, I think bitcoin will go up this year and ethereum will follow. So 300$ is possible but I don't think it will hit 500$ level.

[moonblocks]

The recent government shut down has delayed all the approvals the SEC can provide on cryptocurrencies and may delay further so there's probably no need to rush if you're wanting to capitalize on any advantages this type of investment product may add as it may not be approved immediately but it should contribute to the value of the asset in anticipation

[tomboi]

This is very interesting because if the price of Ethereum can reach $ 500 in 2019. I am sure everything will be better and Altcoin will also increase. And if the price of Ethereum can reach $ 500, of course, the price of Bitcoin is very high. My prediction for this year is I'm sure this can be achieved.

[Aragorn_125]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

Maybe everything will be so, but because we are now seeing growth, which may again end up with a rather large correction. So far, everything is very fragile and there is no clear understanding to predict.

[anggi]

This is very interesting because if the price of Ethereum can reach $ 500 in 2019. I am sure everything will be better and Altcoin will also increase. And if the price of Ethereum can reach $ 500, of course, the price of Bitcoin is very high. My prediction for this year is I'm sure this can be achieved.

actually, the potential for ETH to reach this price is very high for this year. well, but more importantly, I think this month the ETH price can be stable above the price of $ 150, it's better for the start. I think this will continue to grow, and before the end of the year, ETH prices can reach $ 500 or more

[Congyang]

maybe eth can go back to the price trend of $ 500 because right now if you see a coinmarketcap it is in green and is in a rising and consistent position. I think $ 500 can be easily achieved.

[btcyoda]

With the current market trend the price of ETH will cross more than 500$  because slowly market is going in positive direction which will help to increase it's price. In the coming development the price of ETH will recover its price.

[gudjhonson]

Eth walks and gives a positive movement now, of course, a lot of support will come and provide added value in the movement.
We will see that Eth has indeed risen and is valuable.

[okan]

it can reach 1000 dollar in end of year. these are the dip prices. collect as you can

[Erickan]

I think this is possible but we have to wait until the end of 2019, for me people are really exaggerating the role of ETF in the market. I don't think bitcoin ETF will affect this market so much, I like the technological breakthroughs and the value of this market instead of waiting on the ETF.

[HatakeKakashi]

Let's times 10 your prediction to the ethereum value because you said that 500 dollars is possible for the ethereum coin in this 2019.
So we can 5000 dollars each ethereum is the people buying more ethereum again.

But now price is $150 and Im looking for more improvemenr for the price and we need to pump more to see soon our profit that can gives ethereum to us who are the investor who are willing to wati to rise the value of it.

[livingfree]

it can reach 1000 dollar in end of year. these are the dip prices. collect as you can

I hope so but don't be too confident that Ethereum will certainly reach that price by the end of this year. I'm not saying that it's impossible but I'm saying that we have to be dependent on the current trends.

If the bulls come and the market has been pushing on high, we'll see it very soon. We still have 10 months before this year ends and I guess this year where the bulls going to come in.

[umbara ardian]

Let's times 10 your prediction to the ethereum value because you said that 500 dollars is possible for the ethereum coin in this 2019.
So we can 5000 dollars each ethereum is the people buying more ethereum again.

But now price is $150 and Im looking for more improvemenr for the price and we need to pump more to see soon our profit that can gives ethereum to us who are the investor who are willing to wati to rise the value of it.

ethereum price movements are not that easy, ethereum can never be predicted just like other coin price movements which are very difficult to predict so you should share your money to trade on several coins not only in ethereum.

[yslyv]

depends. it depends on the trend of crypto market. if it starts to run bullish again, it is very possible to reach over 1000 usd again. ethereum is still the strongest altcoin without any good alternative.

[CLywaTeLb]

When there is another correction, a similar topic will appear with a forecast that this year the ethereum will cost 50 or less. I bet .

[Mr.grin]

depends. it depends on the trend of crypto market. if it starts to run bullish again, it is very possible to reach over 1000 usd again. ethereum is still the strongest altcoin without any good alternative.

yes, I am also very optimistic about this recovery. I'm also sure the price will be higher than $ 500. however, the current price recovery has only just begun, whether until later, but I hope the price will continue to rise until the end of the year.

[solarion]

When there is another correction, a similar topic will appear with a forecast that this year the ethereum will cost 50 or less. I bet .

We get the opportunity to achieve the value of 500 US dollars again for ETH and I likewise trust that 2019 is an alternate year for cryptomarket, it very well may be the bobbing year or a much steady market where we can see a little siphon and dump with the costs. Anything can occur, and the cost of ETH now is still on the green light, I trust it will proceed up to the uptrend.

[johnwoodworth598]

Here we go again, small pump and will ethereum go to insert random value threads.

It is hard to say what therefore, it seems to me that this year is unlikely to be worth 500 dallars, but I hope, but now I will be 300 dollars worth this year.

Reading good news about bitcoin lately, I think bitcoin will go up this year and ethereum will follow. So 300$ is possible but I don't think it will hit 500$ level.

Well, about a bitcoin separate conversation, but it will naturally grow a bit this year, I do not even doubt that.

[johnwoodworth598]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

A day or two in the green shouldn't get you into FOMO mode, Ethereum has enormous potential but ICOs still have ETH to dump. The increase in price will be slow and gradual.

Well, an ICO will never throw out ethereum, there will be a lot of drawbacks in this, the volume of investment, growth, promotion.

[bustedsynx]

Maybe. But we have to see if the BTC price goes on a sideways action for weeks. This will be a great time for altcoins.

[BanaCrypto]

It is not impossible for ETH to cross 500 USD , because , the market chart says abearish market will come again , let s hope for  the best . 

[Entei]

If the SEC approves ETF I think $500 will be little, in fact, numerous projects will have a massive appreciation. On the other hand, it'll be the death of most other projects! That my thinking is justifiable because ETF signaling will only allow serious projects to have long life or Wall Street interest. I don't eliminate speculation on these dead projects, but we will see many projects that are now called 'big', suddenly devalued!

[EdenHazard]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

ETH have experienced price increase in the end 2017 and the price touch $1400 but now the price just have $143 based on coinmarketcap. We can see the price movements in 2017, when cryptocurency becomes popular and many people came in for investing, then the price increases that we cannot be reliant will be seen in real terms. Hell same with at this time, moreover with many people who already know we can see it easily. However, I have doubts about the SEC that we have been making long waits for, many ways that have been done but they are still sturdy to postpone it.

[kyle999]

Im hopping that ethereum get bigger now at this year of 2019 as usual to other altcoins also but 500$ in this year for ethereum is not impossible to happened.

[Santri]

I see the price of bitcoin has now experienced a significant price increase and that also has an effect on ethereum prices so if ethereum prices reach $ 5000 this year then I believe ethereum will exceed $ 500

[BigBos]

I see the price of bitcoin has now experienced a significant price increase and that also has an effect on ethereum prices so if ethereum prices reach $ 5000 this year then I believe ethereum will exceed $ 500

although not so high, many are currently optimistic about ETH prices. maybe the price could reach $ 500 for this year. but I wait for the ETH price to reach $ 200, and even I check it every time. this might be an interesting year for altcoins.

[kkaroul4]

it can reach 1000 dollar in end of year. these are the dip prices. collect as you can

it is also possible because I believe that ethereum is a good coin to experience a large price increase, especially if there are many investors who believe and use this year ethereum can reach a value of $ 500 or more

[herfianto]

Everything can happen, i think ETH will pass $500 in this year. Start from today ETH price will continues to rise.

[GreatOrchid]

Everything can happen, i think ETH will pass $500 in this year. Start from today ETH price will continues to rise.

I don't really think that $500 is that difficult for etherum to reach. Wait for few months rathar than a year and you will see $500+ price for etherum. Bear markets are about to over and the bull run will approach soon so sticking with the markets to find a perfect investment coin for us is better always. Etherum has some good platforms which keeps high demand for etherum and peoples will soon get big shares into etherum as the markets will start to rise up.

[angel55]

Everything can happen, i think ETH will pass $500 in this year. Start from today ETH price will continues to rise.

My prediction is $1000, we still have a long time left for this year (over 10 months)

We've seen crazier rises so that wouldn't be anything special compared to before.

[@prashant]

if etf get approved we will see a bullish btc movement and altcoin temporary dump but as eth going to have new protocol activated this year so we can expect a rise in price but it all demand on market manipulation if we see another crypto rally then i can predict eth to 300-400$ but if there is no significant rally than 160-230$ i am predicting later this year ,it all demand on manipulation.

[adamlillian]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

I think this is quite difficult. Because a bubble explodes, it will be difficult for it to recover quickly. In the field of investment, we should not be too hasty and impatient. I think our crypto market will soon recover but not 2019.
You will witness a rather gloomy year of the crypto market and there will not be too many changes like 2017.

[ashmodeus]

on my opinion,by the end of year,i think it possible. of course if the Constantinople upgrade has succesfully and also have a good perspective both of holder or miner.because as i read on some blog,tend to be profitable for holder than miner.and the last thing,of course about ETF,since we know too much time for waiting,making market have a big panic.

[Freddie Aguiluz]

OP, my guess is that Ethereum will even go beyond the $500 mark. I'm thinking something above the $1000 mark. Ethereum is performing better lately. The shining green color and with almost 2 billion lead in market capitalization to XRP in coinmaketcap.com is my best proof to this. This year this cryptocurrency may heavily boost its price and totally take an upward turn. This is mainly because of the growth and developments planned in ETH's roadmap.

nothing so far stunning has happened, because we have to wait for the update of Constantinople, that after scaling the block chain aetherium we will see a completely different product. I hope that the investment in ethereum will increase and this has a beneficial effect on pricing.

[kickdapa]

I have a feeling that SEC will not approve ETF this year, but I hope ETH will hit 500 USD this year. Though it is easy to predict but the reality still seems different. But after finishing the Constantinople hard fork Ethereum network will be improved and many good projects will come in ETH coin! So, 500 USD is a normal price for ETH for this year.

Though your observation is very good, this year the crypto market cap for Ethereum, EOS is increasing incredibly. Therefore ETH hard fork is a big matter to catch more investors for ETH, but still, I want to play safe! I don't think ETH can overcome 1000 USD in this year, but 500 USD is a good prediction.

[kodtycoon]

looking and researching more like $500 is not a big thing so maybe eth is above your predict at this year as people say here, this year it's still very long maybe eth will return to the range of $1K or higher than before maybe between $2k or $3K difficult indeed if shown to the reality that happened at the time half of last year

[stadus]

looking and researching more like $500 is not a big thing so maybe eth is above your predict at this year as people say here, this year it's still very long maybe eth will return to the range of $1K or higher than before maybe between $2k or $3K difficult indeed if shown to the reality that happened at the time half of last year

That would greatly make people satisfied on holding if price will reach $1k.
The recent change of price change may be a signal that things will completely change and that bull has wake up already.
BTC will cross the line and reached $4K soon and this will also lead to another hype in the market.
Maybe people have already realize that it's time to change the market as they have already accumulated a lot during the dip.

[the1arty]

I have a feeling that SEC will not approve ETF this year, but I hope ETH will hit 500 USD this year. Though it is easy to predict but the reality still seems different. But after finishing the Constantinople hard fork Ethereum network will be improved and many good projects will come in ETH coin! So, 500 USD is a normal price for ETH for this year.

SEC started to review the application today and have 90 days to give a reply, but still, they can delay it legally.

On all those good news around the crypto industry, it may achieve $500 really shortly, if we will not see new lows before that.
I may assume we can see even higher levels than $500, that is x3 to do, not that much left.

[briana samomingkir]

This year Ethereum will be very difficult to reach $ 500. But do not rule out the possibility that Ethereum can reach a price of $ 500. We also have to consider Bitcoin because so far the growth of Altcoin has been marked by the increase in Bitcoin prices. But for 2019 this is quite interesting because the hopes of all Crypto market people can rise again.

[judyrob]

I have a feeling that SEC will not approve ETF this year, but I hope ETH will hit 500 USD this year. Though it is easy to predict but the reality still seems different.

I think the SEC will return to delay its decision, it seems that there is still a lot to be learned about crypto.
We will see more market movements, now starting to have good developments so that crypto prices appear to be increasing and quite well.
Positive news can provide a continuous pumping movement, and Eth will be able to reach the level of $ 500 despite the next few months.

[South Park]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

That number seems difficult at the moment, in the best case scenario I see ethereum reaching a price of 250 to 300 dollars which is very far away from your prediction but such a number will be great for ethereum because it will allow it to put a healthy distance between ripple and itself and will bring back the confidence of the market to ethereum since it has been one of the coins that has suffered the most with the bear market and the lost confidence of investors in icos.

[Enzo05]

not impossible since prediction price for ethereum this year is awesome but in my opinion I think it will still depends on bitcoin price so lets just hope for good for ethereum and bitcoin .

[mersal]

The chances always there if both the positive and negative will definitely happened to it ethereum we don't predicted very quickly either it was been more higher than we expected or it will be very low these two things will definitely be happen at the end of this year.

[rozak]

I still believe in the quality of ethereum which will break the price of $ 500 this year, just look at ethereum prices have started to rise slowly and I'm sure it will continue to increase

[johnwoodworth598]

This is very interesting because if the price of Ethereum can reach $ 500 in 2019. I am sure everything will be better and Altcoin will also increase. And if the price of Ethereum can reach $ 500, of course, the price of Bitcoin is very high. My prediction for this year is I'm sure this can be achieved.

If ethereum shows a good price increase this year, then certainly the next year the price will be over $ 500. And so it seems to me.

[A L I E N]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

I believe that it can reach 500 dollars even in this summer. I love this alt, which is one of the oldest and Buterin will do everything to keep Ethereum best one!

[cepot9]

of course I hope to reach $ 500, this is all now waiting for bitcoin because everything is like following the bitcoin movement.

[sarfield]

If the positive news continues, the possibility of $ 500 can be reached by the end of this year, so that next year it can lead to even higher values.

[bysmf2000]

Everyone hope Ethereum will be come back like end of 2017, and maybe it can be....
So just waiting and see

[mikaeltomcruz12]

We all don't know what will time this happen again because of the very slow moving price increase of bitcoin. We still believed that bitcoin can return and show the unlimited potential.

[Cnut237]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

Maybe. It depends mostly on how the whole of crypto is moving, and whether we are starting the long recovery, and partly (less) on how much of a success the Constantinople upgrade is.

[davit putra]

If I look at the current recovery then I think there is a possibility ethereum will be able to reach $ 500 this year, and even though it still hasn't been proven because no one knows the future but I will still believe.

[playboy654]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

Yes definitely the the chance of getting closer to $500 in this air will be possible but the pump is definitely need higher this year otherwise it will not happen.

[Niam_bakri]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

Yes definitely the the chance of getting closer to $500 in this air will be possible but the pump is definitely need higher this year otherwise it will not happen.

I myself do not expect too much growth to occur this year. building a market needs to grow slowly, can't suddenly if it doesn't want to suddenly collapse too. we have to understand that this situation is difficult, but growth has already been seen.

[Dragonrage201]

Crypto market is still only in very early stage of next bull run possibly. Hard to tell how big a bull run we'll get and how high Ethereum will get. If market can get back near last years highs, then Ethereum should go above $1000.

[styca]

We'll see. I'm expecting a downturn in ETH after the upgrade goes live. But as ever in crypto, it's difficult to see exactly what will happen. This ETH rally has pulled the whole market up. So as one alternative, maybe the rest of the market will continue to rise, which would counteract any ETH downturn and ETH would continue to rise as well.

[crzy]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

I believe that it can reach 500 dollars even in this summer. I love this alt, which is one of the oldest and Buterin will do everything to keep Ethereum best one!

It will hit that price easily when we enter in the bull market, i know there’s enough reason for ETH to pump again and because ETH is good, it will be supported by many investors. The market is getting closer for a big uptrend, $500 can hit in the next 3 months, or earlier than this.

[Weeker]

We'll see. I'm expecting a downturn in ETH after the upgrade goes live. But as ever in crypto, it's difficult to see exactly what will happen. This ETH rally has pulled the whole market up. So as one alternative, maybe the rest of the market will continue to rise, which would counteract any ETH downturn and ETH would continue to rise as well.

People's expectations from the update are positive, if there are no unexpected problems with it, the price should continue to grow steadily, which will have a positive impact on the entire market

[tabas]

Everyone expects that this is going to be a very possible event to happen. Yes, for ethereum to reach $500 this year.

People's expectations from the update are positive, if there are no unexpected problems with it, the price should continue to grow steadily, which will have a positive impact on the entire market

Because there's a good moving market that is seenable as of these times.

[fourpiece]

If btc continue to rise up and if the bulls already dominating the market there is a big chance that ethereum will reach 500$ again before the end of this year.

[maxreish]

It may be yes or may not. Because we do not have enough capability to let know what it will be the exact price of ethereum in the coming days or months. But if i'm not mistaken, after they made the constantinople hard fork for sure there is a price increase. Looking forward to the success of it.

[Caladonian]

It may be yes or may not. Because we do not have enough capability to let know what it will be the exact price of ethereum in the coming days or months. But if i'm not mistaken, after they made the constantinople hard fork for sure there is a price increase. Looking forward to the success of it.

The price is really increasing and with this fork that a much awaited chances to pull it much higher is still there, and like what you have said
we don't have that capability as the market will still rely with how investors and traders will keep the spike, as long as there's buyers and
investors to be willing to hold, hope to reach 500$ is still alive.

Keep it moving higher and allow the current trend to stay strong.

[sempak]

If indeed ethereum has increased, I think indeed the main reference is bitcoin. if bitcoin can stabilize up later ethereum will also follow the market increase and will also occur as a whole

[peonminer]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

It all depends on how long the Bitcoin winter will last. If this is really it being over, we could see the moon much sooner than anyone is predicting. We are either speeding up dramatically, or this is one hell of a fake out. ETH is semi-relative to the price of Bitcoin so if BTC moons so will ETH theoretically.

Seems like every day passes, your prediction is right. Currently ETH has reached $ 170 and it will soon pass $ 200, so the distance goes up to $ 500 very short and I believe ETH will do it

That's for sure, with just less than 1 month I think ETH has already increase at least 20% and if that will be consistent then for sure that $500
prediction will realize soon. Market is good now, it's not only ETH that is rising and that's good most are green especially BTC so the value will carry to the altcoins. I am seeing that people are now optimistic, it's the chance to buy at this rate as we might not gonna see it again, we hit the dip and time to rise.

[leavolnhals]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

500 $ for 1 ETH is really a pretty big number at the present time. I think it takes more time to recover to that price. ETH is really trying to revive its business after many investors lost confidence and sold ETH.
But every effort needs time and patience. it will reach $ 500 in 2020.

[iqlimasyadiqa]

Nothing is impossible in the digital currency world and anything can happen. Ethereum prices in 2017 have experienced very high levels so it is not a difficult thing if in 2019 the price of Ethereum can reach that level. At present the price of Ethereum is in the range of 160USD, if calculated then it is still very far away when you want to reach 500USD. There are so many wonders and I believe that miracles always exist in the world of digital currency.

We must believe in dreams because everything starts with dreams. In the past digital currencies were considered garbage and now everyone wants to use digital currency !!

Bitcoin will be a determinant of all coins that are here whether it can indeed go up or not because indeed there are currently so many influences on the altcoin so if bitcoin rises then there will be an increase

[Altero]

Bitcoin will be a determinant of all coins that are here whether it can indeed go up or not because indeed there are currently so many influences on the altcoin so if bitcoin rises then there will be an increase

And so altcoins will rise as bitcoin did it.  We saw high increase in the entire market and we feel great that in the coming days there will be more ups.  If these things will have to rally more and have its continuous increase, not only reaching for $500 but possibly be more.

the market is still moving unstable, the possibility of going down or going up is still very likely. this makes us have to be careful in determining predictions. the market grows and falls again, it seems that is a game from big people.

[timmmers]

I thought that bull run started because the recent growth was caused by greedy people, fomo effect, like in 2017 year.
But I am thankful that it did not happen and bear market continues.

Well as of right now the market is probably having a correction. Btc and eth went down quite sleeply in a short time with btc again below 4.8k and eth 140usd. Just goes to show how the market can swing from positive to negative really quick. I don't think we should be thinking about 500 for usd just yet lol.

Market of bitcoin is completely distressing, expected the bull run to take the price reach $200 at least by now. Because it is predicted a $164 crossing will surely make the ethereum grow. A sudden drop in the value of about $400 has made the entire market get crashed. Maybe by the next bull run things might change.

[boty]

I thought that bull run started because the recent growth was caused by greedy people, fomo effect, like in 2017 year.

maybe this is also caused by the influence of good news that has started to spread a lot that bitcoin will happen halving day and remember a few years ago when bitcoin day bitcoin is very expensive and maybe many traders have started to realize it so that the price of bitcoin is always up and the price is back recover.

[givary]

Looking at my predictions, I personally am very sure if Ethereum can reach $ 500. I am sure because I see a graph of sales so far and the market conditions in 2019 are slowly increasing. 2018 is the worst year for the market and now is the right time to improve market conditions by continuing to invest.

[Mister1k]

While I earnestly comprehend the fluff about ETF effect and all crypto subsidiary market, I should concede that an excessive amount of dependence on such instruments will render Bitcoin somewhat more unified as we are progressively reliant on such establishments to make Bitcoin hit its trademark. In any case, for Ethereum, there's a great deal at play that compels the cost from going any higher.

I guess we are given another opportunity today, the market is silent when big dumps like this happens.
Nothing is certain in the future of crypto but we have to guess and take risk in order to have a chance to be profitable, we need to analyze carefully
the bull run is not here as proven by the continues dump but I'm positive it's just around the cornet waiting for the right timing.

[Matcuda]

We know how fast the price of cryptocurrency can grow, good news and a pair of classic jerks up will be enough for Ethereum to easily overcome such a price barrier

[kakade]

I am very sure if Ethereum in 2019 can reach $ 500. Because Ethereum has a very good track record. By 2018 prices continue to decline and for 2019 prices must return to the top. And a pump that happens in a few days is a very good surprise and will give hope for the future.

[Colan Zolo]

We can only hope that Eth will reach a value of $ 500 until the end of this year, but yesterday was at the level of $ 200 and the surge was only a moment. However, we still hope to continue to have a good improvement.

[TelolettOm]

Maybe it happens if bitcoin itself also experiences a substantial increase. and I am sure that people themselves feel that bitcoin should indeed be at the highest point in the market.

[andra73]

to see bitcoin at its peak we have to wait a long time like it seems. we ourselves are still waiting for the market to rise, when the market has recovered, the price of ethereum and bitcoin may return.

[Siren]

As we know that all cryptocurrencies are just following bitcoins movements so theres no doubt that we will see a good growth in ethereum if bitcoin mde a good growth also,but having this market situation i doubt that this year will bring enough profit to us ethereum holders ,

For a couple of days we thought that we have passed the bearmarket and we are heading bull but just yesterday the market turns red again and i dont know what will happen again tomorrow

[Labumi]

Maybe it happens if bitcoin itself also experiences a substantial increase. and I am sure that people themselves feel that bitcoin should indeed be at the highest point in the market.

indeed it has become a sure thing to happen when the price of bitcoin then all cryptocurrency prices will also definitely rise and become very expensive, not only ethereum is affected by the increase in the price of bitcoin but all include ethereum prices.

They are always going together, major coins will likely to pump when their king will pump, their king is BTC.
We have witnessed recently that there was a price spike, and altcoins do follow, BTC reaches $4,100+ but were not able to break the resisatance
so price now is cheap again. More time and we will see that, it has happen in the past, and this market is bound for success.

[Henisusan]

My hope is that the price of Ethereum in 2019 can reach $ 500. In this year's period, the market must be able to rise again because throughout 2018 the market has collapsed. Price growth Ethereum always follows Bitcoin and I'm sure if Bitcoin can go back up.

[jho0810]

We can't say this now because there's will be coming hardfork for ethereum so maybe it will drop or maybe it will move up. Let see and observe what will be happen to ethereum after hardfork.

[aragom]

Maybe it happens if bitcoin itself also experiences a substantial increase. and I am sure that people themselves feel that bitcoin should indeed be at the highest point in the market.

ethereum will be at least 500 dollars until end of year and 1000 dollars.
ethereum is the second big coin and it will go on as this until really good chain will come.

Im also thinking that its possible after hardfork and with ovwrall market grow. Seem market was grow slightly in last days, but yestardays dumped again a little. With new improvements and with institituinal investors which should come with Fidelity in Marsh we should see a good growing at last

[sulendra12]

We can't just saying yes or no without any valid reasons to say it, it would lead you to false direction. People is saying that yesterday when Ethereum's price was high they thought that would be another bullrun but in the end the price is falling down until now. You don't know what happen in the future.

[Farahtenan]

Until now we cannot predict precisely, because everything moves unstable and continues to fluctuate. When there is a rise and fall back, this is what is happening on the market today, we can only hope that Eth will continue to rise and become a trusted platform.

[Thanasis]

Don't have any idea about it right now but if there is a bull run on crypto market then $500 is not a big target to achieve in the remaining 10 months of this year.

[puremage111]

Well based on the recent trading volume movement, it is possible to get to $500 but not that easy

The previous bull run easily pushed the market faster because market were that immature
Its hard to decide now

[watergold]

if ethereum prices reach 500 at the end of the year I might believe that will happen. but again if bad news about crypto doesn't continue to attack,and even then it took a long time to return

[Dpat]

It is very possible that Ethereum can reach at least $500 this year if not early must reach towards the end of the year. This because the recently the rally over the all the altcoins are reversing upward and can be sustainable if the Ethereum price hold above $200.

[whaawh]

At least the ethereum team is working on enhancing the platform, its scaling and, moreover, the update of Constantinople should make a good impression on the ethereum on the part of investors. In addition, each of us understands that it also affects the entire cryptocurrency market prices for Bitcoin, and ethereum, even with a positive development of its program, cannot overtake the entire cryptocurrency market.

[tippytoes]

In the past some coins has shown surprise upwards movement and ethereum been one of the popular coins has shown significant pump in 2017 and early 2018! Will ethereum get to $500 this year even if sec approved ETF?

Everything is connected to Bitcoin. If Bitcoin surprise us with rates over 10,000 USD, then Ethereum will get to 500 USD or more. If Bitcoin continue to gravity around 3000-5000 USD, then I don't thing there is a chance Ether to near close to 500 USD. I think people are overrating the ETF hype.

I believe such situation also. The rise of eth and other altcoins rely on bitcoin's price. But we will never what's gonna happen, right? I'm positive that bitcoin and eth will increase its value but I can't give how much it would be. Keeping my own predictions to myself. 

[minus_one_crypto]

I started to believe it again. The market is rapidly going up and many people have hope that the bulls will return soon. I also believe that Ether will go up.

Cryptocurrencies are no more quick profit scheme. If you want such big return invest into some HYIP and not into the blockchain technology, that requires a time to be used in everyday life.

Just the opposite, in cryptocurrency the risk of losing all the money is ten times less than in any HYIP, and for normal earnings it is enough to buy coins at the right time and wait for any significant rise in prices

It would be excellent to see eth with that value, but do not forget that supply and demand is what dominates the market, the effect of ETFs, if approved, will be very positive, but I do not think it has as much impact on being determinant for reach 500USD just by assuming this fact. I think that to reach these levels, Bitcoin must enter the upward trend and for that we must wait a long time, for now, we just have to have patience.

I think this price is indeed quite close to the current price. however, a not too large increase from ETH makes this price look so far away. for this year, I think ETH does have a huge opportunity to develop. I can only hope that ETH prices can reach that price.

indeed there is nothing that can provide a prediction of cryptocurrency price movements but at least from the existing graphs can be read price and volume movements can also influence the cryptocurrency price movements.

[johnwoodworth598]

maybe eth can go back to the price trend of $ 500 because right now if you see a coinmarketcap it is in green and is in a rising and consistent position. I think $ 500 can be easily achieved.

Well, they have a trend of 600-750 dollars. The best price was, well, I think that I’m talking about it all the time, SO what it seeks.
