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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 !

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.
