Eth Price faces further decrease

[bolajiy123]

on Ethereum, i don't think the coin is coming back anytime soon as it faces further decreases in the price, as at today the price is 187USD, this coin has been struggling to climb up to it's formal state, i still hope the price hits 500USD or more by the end of the year.

The ETH was primarily betting on the ICO/smart contracting business to drive the demand in the market. It actually resulted a huge pricing push back in 2017 along with the push given by bitcoin pricing surge. The ICO market is dead now and IEOs have taken over but the volume is quite less compared to 2017.

In 2017 we have seen thousands of ICOs in the market struggling to get prominence. In 2018 it decreased by half and 1/4th in 2019. The demand for ETH is certainly decreasing gradually which actually hit them hard.

Also the presence of competitors made the situation worse. Earlier ETH was the pioneer in the smart contracting field but now we have many options like NEM, EOS, Steller, Cardano etc. Which certainly decrease the demand further.

There are other reasons as well but I believe these abive listed reasons are the major ones for ETH decline. I frankly do not see the situation changing on its own unless we have a stimulus.

[VanDeinsberg12]

it's so difficult for ethereum to hit back $500 again at the end of this year. The demand has already drowned by IEO and there was no a main reason for anyone to buy and keep ethereum again.
This time the only advantage of ethereum to be used in the contract creation and no more.
Even if it's still holding the top smartcontract doesn't mean if that will be forever. But i hope your prediction about that will come true.

[samcrypto]

In the near future, we will see ETH for 177 dollars. well, by the end of the year I’m waiting for at least 500 dollars and I think that this will happen because I expect a general market rise

Very close for that dump price, I'm also hoping for a higher price at the last quarter of 2019. The price are very unstable and can't keep my eyes off the market, I hold ETH because I know it will be a good coin until the end of 2019 and I hope it will disappoint me, let's keep trusting the process of ETH and the future development, I know this is not the end of ETH it will go for more.

It is quite difficult for ETH to return again, but it does not rule out the possibility that it will return. If we look at the end of 2017, ETH can rise very rapidly in 2 months because BTC has a big pump. Now we only need a big bitcoin pump to return price ETH, that's the only hope if ICO & IEO are no longer reliable.

[caffu chino]

ethereum's popularity is down and the market is starting to enter the bear market. this is the main reason ethereum prices have weakened. I think it will take a long time, even longer than the end of the year, for ethereum to return to normal conditions.

[tomahawk9]

i still hope the price hits 500USD or more by the end of the year.

Unless we see a price movement similar to 2017 (last time we saw ETH @ $500 was during the BTC bull run in December 2017), then it's very unlikely that we'll see such prices at the end of the year. It could happen, but don't hold your breath.

Btw, the title of this topic may look a bit alarming to some people, but honestly, ETH has been going up and down as usual (0.02 sats last week, then a dip to 0.017, then back up again to 0.02, and now another drop), pretty normal behaviour if you ask me, right now the price going back to last week levels so nothing to worry about. Smart thing to do is to monitor the price and buy cheap if it keeps going down, you could make some decent short-term profits with those swings in price.

[Darker45]

Right now, what happened to ETH happened to every other coin as well, including Bitcoin. The price of ETH is moving according to the movement of the entire cryptocurrency market. If you take a look at the charts, ETH is not a special case. If you say that ETH has fallen down to $187, Bitcoin has also fallen to $9,980, BCH to $295, LTC to $70, BNB to $26, etc. The point here is that the drop of ETH price is not an isolated case. The market is bleeding and so it is very natural that coins are in red.

If you want to make money, don't stay away from the blood. Buy them, make the best of swings. Invest when the prices are cheap.

[yazher]

ETH price is at its worse right now because it's having a hard time to overcome the $200 dollars wall. lately, it reached the expectation of many investors when it finally gets to $300+ finally in the long months of drought.

But judging with its price right now the $500 mark is in jeopardy because there is no sign of going to 300$ again from this market.

But let's not lose hope the end of ETH is not yet there, we need to believe on its founder he can do something about this.

[Pelana vreo]

In 2017, Ethereum prices went up and made me think the price could not go down as in 2018, when ETH reached prices below $ 100 and dropped to second in the coin marketcap, many competitors like Tron and several new projects using the same smartcontract as Ethereum's idea make investors use a cheaper service from ethereum and switch to another platform, maybe we can see ethereum prices return to $500 after BTC prices rise to $ 19k

[magnum cyber]

everyone also hopes like that, but the market is in bad condition and there is no significant upward movement in ethereum prices. I think etherum is difficult to go up to the price of $ 500 except if the price of bitcoin can touch the highest price again maybe ethereum can increase significantly.

[ophyrim]

Eth price is very important. Not just for ETH investors. Always ETH price trigger altcoin season. I mean when ETH start to pump you are going to see an altcoin bull run.
By the way, I am not waiting for a more downtrend for ETH. We are near the bottom.

Nope, Bitcoin is.
We are getting near to the bottom once people lose their faith on it and keeps calling it and other cryptocurrencies as a scam. Like we used to see in 2015~2016.
a few months ago, ETH could hit $100 or sub $100. Does not that mean it has a possibility to reach it again? the price keeps going down as long as Bitcoin keeps moving down too, just look at it today. Unless Bitcoin moves up and stabilizes its price in around $13.000 if not ETH will not see the pump again.

Let me me ask you first “what is the final state”of ethereum for you?it seems that you are looking high about ethereum price,don’t you remember that early this year the value of this coin drops below 100$ and now that  the value range from $180-200+ you’re feeling disappointed?dont please because the fact that we must be thankful because the price is closing tohe growth and fall of bitcoin things to be contented

[suryapro]

Maybe all of that is due to the current unstable market situation. but we all hope that this situation will soon recover and value of eth will increase again.

I see the decline in prices that happened today not only happened to Ethereum, other coins in the Market also declined.  Maybe this is the right time to increase investment, but if we do not have the money to increase investment, we must be patient to wait for coin prices to rise again.  And Ethereum prices can reach $ 500 or more.

[Leah38]

Its a cycle. Prices drops and recovers after. If you have ethereum just hold on to it and wait for market prices to recover. Hopefully before the year ends, it will.

[Inkdatar]

Its a cycle. Prices drops and recovers after. If you have ethereum just hold on to it and wait for market prices to recover. Hopefully before the year ends, it will.

The ethereum price hard to increase and I think it really takes times to recover. The uncertainty in ethereum market faces this year if this could recover by end of this year. Well, I am still into holding on eth.

[tunapa]

We have seen worse than this when it went below 100$ , but I feel we won’t go that low again ! The current state of market has been repeated consistently over some time now ! It shows that we shouldn’t expect any massive increase or pump ! Bull run is likely to come in 2020 !

[arpon11]

Ethereum has not been doing very well after testing above $300 in June. $500 has become so very hard to get close to but I and thinking that bitcoin will get bullish soon and it might draw ethereum along. Most of this popular coins(ethereum, litecoin, bitcoin cash, and ripple) don't have that capacity to grow on there own but there all depends on what happened to bitcoin for them to grow. As bitcoin is falling right now we should expect the same thing to happen to there and in December when Bitcoin began to grow there may cross $500 for the first time this year.

[maydna]

I am not sure about that because, at this moment, every possibility could happen, and we still see ethereum price is hard to increase higher. The ethereum price cannot break $200 price level and only turn around in below than $200, so I guess that ethereum will go down again. Besides that, with bitcoin price is down too, it will trigger the altcoin to go down too because the altcoin will always follow bitcoin price.

But besides decreasing in the price, ethereum will also have a chance to increase although we don't know when it will grow. Just hope that ethereum can break $200 this year so, in the next year, ethereum can go to the higher price. We don't know if the bull run will happen in the next year because we don't see the sign for the cryptocurrency to get rise again. So we need to be more patient to wait for the coming.

[suryapro]

yeah ,,thats right..
I also have a same opinion with you. This coin will not experience a high price increase of until $ 500. but we always hope that this coin will soon rise and make a great price movement.

I have read the various article about etherum, on the moon yesterday etherum will go up 40% but no news increase at all that there is only a decrease, and the movement of his very was slow

[peter0425]

That is too much to ask,there’s no 500 usd price that will happen soon for ethereum as the team is still sorting ways on how to improve the platform to attract another investors
And we can see that reaction from the ICO that uss their erc20 platform in which 90-98% are failure

But expect more for the coming years as I am sure after bitcoin halving will increase the momentum of crypto market and altcoins will go along the growth of bitcoin

[Kriptos]

on Ethereum, i don't think the coin is coming back anytime soon as it faces further decreases in the price, as at today the price is 187USD, this coin has been struggling to climb up to it's formal state, i still hope the price hits 500USD or more by the end of the year.

In the near term, I do not see that the price of Ethereum will revert to the top. And in the last few months, Ethereum is actually experiencing an excellent development. But with Bitcoin it continues to dominate, so Ethereum is like drowning.

My expectation is also later this year that Ethereum could grow taller and reach $500. The market is difficult to predict, but all can happen in crypto.

[jerrison]

i think it has nothing to do with the differences between the price. ethereum is still being upscaled by vitaik and his team and there is no doubt that he will deliver on his promises of scalability. the recent update on the ethereum website has shown that the further advancement of the platform will also give an increase in the price.

$500 is the big hope from all ethereum believer mate
and i believe before the end of this year ethereum price will reach that price level,,
Q4 will be a good start for a good and reliable alts such as ethereum to climb up   

[btc_angela]

ETH price reflects the current state of alt coin market right now. That is, it is still in crypto winter and perhaps the bear market isn't over in alt coins. I mean it reaches $300 already and we thought that it will go on parabolic rise. Everyone gets excited that $500 can be hit soon or at least at the end of the year. However, we are now struggling to even get to $200. I guess ETH investors switch back to bitcoin, after all it is still the best assets so far, just by looking at its dominance.

[maydna]

So it is not changing too much in the price because today, the price is at $189 according to poloniex but I don't know if the price will stay at that price level or not. We can hope that the price can hit $500 soon, but that will be difficult to know when it will happen because that will depends on the bitcoin price too. So if bitcoin is not moving to the higher price, then the ethereum and the other altcoin can increase. But if bitcoin rises to the higher price, then we will see the altcoin will get down for once again. We need to be careful at this moment because everything can happen as the market still not stable in every day so we need to prepare if the worst thing will happen.

[airdagon]

I am sure the price of ETH will rise again, because we all also know that ETH is a good coin. It's all just a matter of time, $ 500 in my opinion it will be very easily surpassed by ETH but maybe in the medium term

[carter34]

I think the issue is lack of popularity at this time for etheruem. We are having other platforms now being popular too like EOS and I think COSMOS etc. This could be one reason too after the fall of icos.

[cryptoperkele]

Eth price is very important. Not just for ETH investors. Always ETH price trigger altcoin season. I mean when ETH start to pump you are going to see an altcoin bull run.
By the way, I am not waiting for a more downtrend for ETH. We are near the bottom.

I always thought that dogecoin would the first indicator for altseason. Because if that rises, anything can rise. Could be eth as well as it's a "real" project

[Dpat]

The decrease of ETH price is naturally react to the crypto market. The crypto market has always been high volatile even the top volatile commodity silver not so much. As, the market go further up while the good news will arrive for the crypto market then again ETH will up and may be reach $500. So, hold id the better option for the Ethereum.

[Red-Apple]

ETH is not going to come back any time soon because it has lost its place in the market and as a platform both. it no longer is the newbie goto for investment and on top of it the ICO hype which was the only reason why it got pumped in first place is now dead. to make matters worse other smart contract platform had gained a lot of popularity over the past two years and the more people try them they more they realize how terrible ethereum was as a platform and the migration continues.

[adamin1i]

ETH disappointed his investor too much. but I think this will come to an end with new updates and the price will increase.

[rodel caling]

Also the presence of competitors made the situation worse. Earlier ETH was the pioneer in the smart contracting field but now we have many options like NEM, EOS, Steller, Cardano etc. Which certainly decrease the demand further.

There are other reasons as well but I believe these abive listed reasons are the major ones for ETH decline. I frankly do not see the situation changing on its own unless we have a stimulus.

You had a point ethereum is affected their price decrease because of the ico's project failure in year 2017, but if you analyzt it that time ethereum during the bitcoin ATH ethereum is follow to the their king increase their price value even if a lot of ico's failed.

ETH disappointed his investor too much. but I think this will come to an end with new updates and the price will increase.

That is true but there a lot of possibilities ethereum will increase their price before end of this specially if the bitcoin continue to increase.

[ololajulo]

Interestingly no one can tell why bitcoin is enjoying such rise while ethereum doesnt. Bitcoin did not promise us as much as Ethereum promised, however, ethereum seem to have more use and not enjoying a price increase even with the consistent high volume trade. The possibility of attaining $500 is slim while the governance are not making any development to improve the token economics.

[bison]

the decrease did occur in ETH. but looks stable in the past month. we can see the ETH price movement and some altcoin also not much happening surges. some coins do pump, not as a whole. but ETH still looks safe. especially for newcomers, this is probably the best time to start investing. the possibility of ETH price growth is still very likely to occur and will occur in the future.

[cliber]

on Ethereum, i don't think the coin is coming back anytime soon as it faces further decreases in the price, as at today the price is 187USD, this coin has been struggling to climb up to it's formal state, i still hope the price hits 500USD or more by the end of the year.

Today or August 25, 2019, the price is ETH $191.93.
Increasing the price of ETH I can say is still very worrying. I agree that the price of ETH will not increase in the near future and to exceed $300 requires a longer period of time.

[CLywaTeLb]

[cut out]

That is true but there a lot of possibilities ethereum will increase their price before end of this specially if the bitcoin continue to increase.

Really?
Once BTC has achieved good dollar growth, Ethereum loses in Bitcoin. Single spikes in ETH prices only create an illusion. This is a downtrend that I hope will someday end.

[ololajulo]

ETH could be the standard coin to check Altcoins rally. When It rises we are likely see similar drive among other altcoins. More so, possible rally to ATH for bitcoin will be after its hardfork, then we can the repeat of profit movement into altcoin like the 2018. The correction that could remove scam coins and more use cases among altcoin could  that give a different move in the market after hitting the ATH.

[Reatim]

Then I’ll be waiting for this another decrease in ETh price as I have missed the $100 value and not I’m looking for another one
If this will really happen ?then I will risk some of my altcoins to purchase good amount of ethereum for future benefits

But all of this are hope because ethereum is going with bitcoin now,and that’s a good sign of growth

[lixer]

I don’t think I have much doubt about that, what is still affecting most altcoins is generally bear market, and I think we are quite feeling this way because bitcoin gave us a sign of bull run earlier this year if bitcoin had not increased, I am sure that many of us will still have the bear mindset and then set our mind in most coins coming out of bear market next year which that was our initial thought before bitcoin brought in that surprising increase around April this year.

So, let's still be hopeful that most of these altcoins will come out of bear market on or before the next halving of bull run which I think is bound to happen by next year April. If altcoins season starts their bull run, I am sure that Ethereum will have the capacity to even climb quite hire than that.

It is doubtful that we are going to see such a price increase by the end of the year, the price of bitcoin which has been the main driver of the recovery of the market is going nowhere and as such most of the coins in the rest of the market are doing the same, ethereum is not showing any increase in its demand and with ieos now getting most of the funding for new projects I do not see how this is going to change during this year, the outlook should be better for the next year but forget for any dramatic growth in the price of ETH during the next months.

[betty11]

ICO has majorly switched to IEO and they have various market pair alternative rather than the usual ETH major acceptance for crowdfunding. I hope ETH doesn't dip to $50, it won't but if it does, I will be waiting to store more to my vault.

[EastSound]

Its proven that ETH cant handle tons of transactions and it was due to the kryptokitties dapp. Developers ought to find better alternative platform and the ICO is slowly fading away due to regulations and some countries ban it entirely.

Company, corporations, and institutions wont use eth platform to launch their security tokens because ethereum wasnt built to comply with regulations.

That would be a great price to end this year, even if it's gonna go with its current rate, I think that's gonna happen provided BTC will double its current price. When BTC rises, ETH's value will also affected, maybe some dump as part of the normal reaction but in overall it will help to increase the value of ETH. BTC doubling its current price means it will create a new ATH, and with that, it's also possible that altcoins will finally wake up and ETH will surely lead the way.

[Cnut237]

ETH does still have as much potential as it ever had. Smart contracts will become a big part of everyday life, I'm sure, as more and more tasks that are currently performed manually are automated. The big ETH price rise we had in 2017 was due in large part to the ICO fever that year. Prices now may be considerably lower, but the project and its use-case is as strong as ever. And arguably as we move to ETH 2.0, stronger than ever.

[Taufik blackspade team]

ICO has majorly switched to IEO and they have various market pair alternative rather than the usual ETH major acceptance for crowdfunding. I hope ETH doesn't dip to $50, it won't but if it does, I will be waiting to store more to my vault.

now IEO no longer uses ETH, most use Tokens or coin products from the exchange, it's just that their platform still uses ethereum. such an example is Binance which uses Binance coins to be able to participate in their IEO

the use of exchange tokens is usually to alternatively register or get a ticket first. for the use of ETH, it is actually still needed for purchases in IEO, as happened in other exchanges, sometimes there are several sales stages such as BTC, ETH, or other coin sales.

It's just too unfair that Bitcoin is enjoying the increase in price while ETH is stuck in a stable price $200 to $300.
IEOs and smart contracts are the ones that are making ETH hard to follow the trend of Bitcoin.
It will take a lot of efforts to push the price of ETH close to $500 but i guess if Bitcoin starts to grow next year drastically.

[Hypnosis00]

And arguably as we move to ETH 2.0, stronger than ever.

Well, it has to take such consideration that it has a huge demand last 2017 causing its price to strike high. And it has to look different by now which the demand is getting low just because people are shifting into IEO projects. To further stop this declining sentiment that ETH is facing now, they (must) do something that could give attraction to the investors and to prove its potentiality.

don't be sad and keep to believe, because Ethereum is a high-quality coins in crypto and many the crypto experts have said Ethereum prices will soar high again, but I don't know when that will happen. yes the Ethereum price is currently still stable below $ 190 and I also hope that by the end of this year Ethereum prices can reach more than $500.

This is really very unlikely when most investors are paying attention to Bitcoin.
Many people use margin and battle with the manipulation of the whales.
It seems alts are getting overlooked and this will continue until next year.
I advise you to be more patient and wait until next year, the market will probably have some change.

[Kasabus]

Can't wait to see ETH coming back in race but the current situations may tell that ETH goes into the big struggle until today. Ethereum remain as the leading altcoins in the market but it is to sad to say that it never been profitable anymore than of before and to compared with other coins existed nowadays.  Though it's getting hard day by day but I'm still optimistic to see ETH soaring high again at the right moment.

[peter0425]

ETH disappointed his investor too much. but I think this will come to an end with new updates and the price will increase.

What disappointment are you saying here!?ethereum is standing still together with bitcoin.while in the early this year price drops even below $100 but now reached $250 again(but drops as well today)

This is the market who makes the volatility very active these past months but for sure Vitalik Buterin and the ethereum team is surely doing their best to improve and grow the platform of ETH

Market is always a tough place .It can always make you survive .However the eth price is around 187$ and now its on downtrend .Not only eth but also all altcoins are surviving at this moment .Just remind it always eth is the best altcoin and it will recover soon and you will get your level .

now IEO no longer uses ETH, most use Tokens or coin products from the exchange, it's just that their platform still uses ethereum. such an example is Binance which uses Binance coins to be able to participate in their IEO

It was a great strategy that binance really used there, and right now, their chain is becoming more and more popular than that of Ethereum own every day. They would not have been able to topple Ethereum in this field if hackers and scammers had not really turned the ICO market into a very bad one, but now most project we see in ICO coming up are just redundant and investors only wants to see IEO, and has this grows, it reduced the relevance of Ethereum in the market, except Ethereum does better than this , this might really not go well for them in the long run.

Ethereum need to really win the trust of investors, developers and many other people more by coming up with a better strategy that would make Ethereum to continue to gain its popularity and usage.

It is doubtful that we are going to see such a price increase by the end of the year, the price of bitcoin which has been the main driver of the recovery of the market is going nowhere and as such most of the coins in the rest of the market are doing the same, ethereum is not showing any increase in its demand and with ieos now getting most of the funding for new projects I do not see how this is going to change during this year, the outlook should be better for the next year but forget for any dramatic growth in the price of ETH during the next months.

It's just too unfair that Bitcoin is enjoying the increase in price while ETH is stuck in a stable price $200 to $300.
IEOs and smart contracts are the ones that are making ETH hard to follow the trend of Bitcoin.
It will take a lot of efforts to push the price of ETH close to $500 but i guess if Bitcoin starts to grow next year drastically.

There is nothing unfair about what is happening, bitcoin is the best coin in the market and its value was very low so a correction was bound to eventually happen, this made many investors to reconsider their investments in altcoins and they began to sell their coins so they could buy bitcoin, and when you add the fierce competition that ETH is going through then it is not really a surprise to see ETH performing so badly against bitcoin, however ethereum is not the only coin underperforming almost all altcoins are doing the same.

even though btc is pumping eth is showing all down trend  in the market we should wait and see how eth reacts eth expected price is 1000 dollars in this bull run

[jerrison]

on Ethereum, i don't think the coin is coming back anytime soon as it faces further decreases in the price, as at today the price is 187USD, this coin has been struggling to climb up to it's formal state, i still hope the price hits 500USD or more by the end of the year.

It is  a general knowledge that crypto prices are highly volatile and can trade from a cent to 1000 dolllars within the blink of a day but then speculations are always there considering the traders that consider the technical analysis of these projects. Eth has recentyl seen a 2020 ATH of 285 and is currently retracing and stands at 223 dollar. its ethereum 2.0 is yet to be unleashed fully so, i hope for better prices in the near future.

Cryptocurrency market is an exciting market and those that has been patiently following the price actions has really be making money from the market. Ethereum has been declining after making a big gains about two weeks ago and that means we should be hopeful that it will bance off of it psychological support at $200.

[xvids]

I don't think that we really need to panic at all,
ETH is a great crypto and it wouldn't just die like any other crypto,
It would surely go up again we just have to wait patiently after all it is not just the ETH who have suffered a huge price drop,
The market have crash down so almost all of the crypto is affected.

Ether is a good coins but price is decreasing maybe this year ether recover slowly we can wait maybe this year ether slowly increase the price but not really high it slowly until the price will recover. So be possible of what we think we all know that ether is the one best coin so we need wait the right time that ether goes up the price again.

[michellee]

It is tough for ethereum at this moment because the price still going down. Now, ethereum has been traded at $220, and we don't know how far ethereum price can stay at that price, or it will go down for more. We can hope that ethereum will be fine and not down deeper, but we still need to be cautious because everything can happen later. This day, ethereum prices can move to a higher price, and we see the green candle show at the market, and maybe tomorrow will be a good time for ethereum to start to rise again.

This is gonna be hard for the Ethereum to recover because it dumps a huge amount rather than before. But, one thing is for sure, Ethereum will rise up again since halving is about to happen. It will for surely gonna affect the current price of it when halving take effect. That is the time when the price of it will rise up and recover after the dump.

[yupi84crypto]

In my opinion, the decline in ETH prices that have occurred in recent days is not something to fear. Because after ETH prices have risen
starting from the end of 2019 until around the middle of February. It's only natural that prices are falling now, and I'm optimistic that ETH
prices will soon rise in the near future. Even now ETH has begun to show a very positive performance, by starting crawl up to $ 225. I hope
ETH can go to $ 500 before halving bitcoin occurs.

I think as long as bitcoin is able to maintain its lowest price in the current range it is very likely that ethereum prices will also remain in the range of $220, we cannot expect anything bigger now even though the recovery signal is there, because when the pump occurs at least there will be other factors that make the increase is not so significant until the correction occurs again.

From time to time, the price of tokens inflate and deflate with respect to both demand and supply globally and also the manipulations in pricing amongst the marketers. Ethereum is not left out of this spcae as it happens to be a necessary reosource in the crypto cureency space and more especially those looking to utilise the ethereum blockchain in deploying their own smart contract.

Depending on my research, I can see a another dump approaching. This is my own research so I would not like anyone to follow me. I do agree that the bull runs would arrive anytime soon which would bring the price for bitcoins as well as many other coins like etherum on the all time high peak but before that we might also see those coins reaching the bottom from where they would start growing back.

Eventually, the dip is for us to buy and hold and hence a dip is always been followed by a pump as many people start buying there and it increases the price for those coins. Etherum has showed us a great growth in the past bull runs and these coming bull runs are been predicted to be major them the past ones so we could see a major growth in etherum as well.

We already experience this scenario about Eth price decrease. So many users are still holding this coin until now because their is a tendency price will surge this year. Indeed it shows price improve but a sudden decrease so the movement is unpredictable, but, let's hope for the best in Eth.

[SquallLeonhart]

If you could speculate the graphs for etherum as well as bitcoins than you could find a lot of similarity in between those. Even bitcoins are on a descending graph for now so it is not new to see etherum on the descending graph as well. Most of the times, etherum follows what bitcoins shows them and hence most of the altcoins depends on bitcoins.

Bitcoins would start growing again which would also carry etherum along and that would be the time when we would see etherum crossing $200 and so on. At the end of this year we might see huge price for bitcoins as well as etherum if ever the halving process triggers the bull runs.

ETH already crossed $200, in fact its price now is $234- https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/markets/.
maybe you are expecting a $300 which I think we almost hit that this year already, that's when bitcoin raised to $10400 of course.

At the end of this year we might see huge price for bitcoins as well as etherum if ever the halving process triggers the bull runs.

Halving will happen in the first half of the year, the next 6 months is very crucial, hopefully the post halving result would still be bullish.

[bentalker]

It's roundly $217 today, and I predict it's price will increase up to $400 at mid year.

this can also be seen in the development of ethereum prices since early 2020. Its development follows the price of bitcoin, even prices in bitcoin also go up. however, I am not very sure that ethereum will continue to decline while the price of bitcoin is rising. I quite believe that when the price of bitcoin goes up, then the price of ethereum is also pushed up.

But we cannot expect that bitcoin can be able to maintain the lowest price in the current range because we know that the bitcoin price can move to any price. And that will happen too with ethereum price, and we know that the ethereum price just follows where bitcoin price moves. Ethereum will have a chance to increase higher, but we don't know if in the next hour will be decreased or increase. And now, ethereum still to try to maintain the price and will grow back in the future.

[Yaunfitda]

Where did you see the price going to $217 today? It is still above $230'ish, still very strong price as far as I'm concern. We never thought that it could grow ~$200 but it did it February, meaning altcoin investors are slowly getting in the Ethereum platform again.

So I do not think that it will go below $200, in fact, $500 or above at the end of the year is a conservative estimates for me.

You definitely missed out on crypto 102 haha. Sure, demand and supply plays the traditional role of economics, but in crypto especially with alts, we have a problem where a few people own the majority of the supply and thus they are able to determine or falsify demand. This could have been the case with ETH during ATH.

Unfortunately, this can be said about BTC. But alts are easier to manipulate

[torrantz]

It's roundly $217 today, and I predict it's price will increase up to $400 at mid year.

As long as ethereum can hodl this rate and the impact that will be made by the next update will give a huge impact on the price. Just believe if bitcoin will make the situation even better than this time, just hope if the impact caused by corona virus can be neutralized to prevent it affects the world economy.

[DU18]

It's roundly $217 today, and I predict it's price will increase up to $400 at mid year.

I also think that in the middle of this year eth prices will reach $300- $350 because halving days and some moments that occur in cryptocurrency this year will have a positive impact on some Cryptocurrency price movements, especially eth, looking at the current eth price charts like there is a price resistance that occurs so that if the resistance can be passed certainly the bull run that we hope will come.

[princehandsome]

currently ETH is in the range of $ 244 and maybe as you said it is not difficult to reach the price of $ 400 in the middle of the year. I predict that this year will be a big surprise for ETH and BTC prices. I can not wait for the surprise.

We can't just say there is a big surprise without any reason, people are speculating on the ETH 2.0 this year so that should be a big development of ETH that could probably bring the price up, your prediction is even too low, if the market is bullish, I  would say $500 is the minimum price ETH could rise this year, that is conservative prediction.

[Bezobraznike]

   Today on CMC Ethereum is under $200. $199.54 precisely! I planed to buy some Ethereum this month and this drop suits me. It would be
nice to buy at bottom, what you people think will it go deeper or not? To buy now or wait a bit more? I read some short-term predictions,
some experts think that it will go to $160, some say it will retest $230.

its hard to choose because every people has a different predictions , i guess your only guide is to choose if were your heart says .  you said earlier that your planning to buy and the drop suites you , so i assume that you are confident with your decision .  actually i suport you with that .  that is also im about to do if ever i have the money nowadays . i always say that eth is stable and if it drops , there is a chance that it will take along time to see another drop again but the chance of increase is always there because there will also be buying eth once it drops .
