It's already under 2000, it is clear that we are in a bear market and we are going to see even lower. I highly doubt under 1000 will happen, but anything until then is quite possible and will happen. The real trouble would be if ETH stayed up while everything else goes down because that would be not a good thing in the crypto world.
Usually something staying up while all others are falling, happens because we end up seeing things that are quite faked, like manipulated, so that we would be buying trusting ETH more than others and just as enough of us trust it, they would crash it. So let ETH fall, because the entire market is going down, things that do not stay up, and things that do not fall further than others, are fine projects.
I haven't seen anyone realistically even suggesting that it's going under $1k, i doubt that it will even test it. Or if it is, i would bet all my money on under 1k eth, because that would be easiest gains ever. I am rarely sure about anything but for that i would bet everything for.
I don't really bother to talk about price manipulation, as that's way harder to prove then faked volume for example. And it's all speculative anyway, so who cares if price is acting out because of manipulation or not.
