Who can prediction how much price of ethereum next year, will back above $1,5k or keep with lower price under $150, after many ICOs failed with listed on exchange market and many investors move investment from ICOs to IEOs ethereum price looks dump and never get back with higher price, will be when ICOs raise up again and ethereum have higher price?

From my first of working i am in love of ETH because ETH team has strong planning and platform yet. In 2018 we saw ETH team's strong work behind market when ETH down into position 3 in CMC market. I had hope about Waves but now weaves position are 64. This is only bad team work. So when we compare everything in market ETH is best after BTC.
That is in face, based on the coin market capitalization of those coins which determines how many people are having that money. What about if we consider the frequency of transactions that people is conducting using a particular cryptocurrency, it would be better to consider that stable coins are those that do really helps with people, and without any high ranking in CMC, we all know how important stable coins are and how we benefit from it over time. Going back to the topic, I could say, ETH and bitcoin are the two best investment crypto but not necessarily saying they are the best among the rest.

I love Bitcoin and fully believe in it. I would like to see what Ethereum 2.0 has in store for us before I truly form an opinion. I think there is such great potential for dApps in financial services, legal services, and government services that Ethereum can't be ignored. I am excited to see how Ethereum will be used in the future 
there is no guarantee that ethereum may stand longer but what i see is Litecoin can be more competitive and Binance in future(ooopps,this is only my opinion haters read first)though yeah i have ethereum in my folio but it doesnt mean that i will choose this against Bitcoin because this wont happen i would rather convert all my currency to bitcoin and wait for the bullrun the whole 2020.

Most crypto investors do always have these two main coins, bitcoin and ethereum. bitcoin is the most favorite coin in cryptocurrency because its increase in 2017 yesterday provided many benefits for its holders and all altcoins always follow the movements of the price of bitcoin. so bitcoin will always be the leader of altcoin. the second most popular coin is ethereum. During the heyday of the ICO in 2017 almost all of the ICO used the ethereum platform. so the price of ethereum at that time was quite high. the last two years the price of eth has continued to decline but I am still optimistic that eth can pump again when bitcoin goes bullish.

There is no doubt with that, we can always say that because it has been proven enough, they will for sure be the Kind and Queen of crypto of all time. So it is really important to bag some of them, it is better to take risk just don't invest your money, at least invest some even little by little save some Btc and Eth, as it can be worth it someday.

Ethereum is no doubt the best altcoin and second best cryptocurrency after Bitcoin. There is a saying that "never put all your eggs in one basket". There are few other good altcoin also (litecoin, monero etc) try to invest in them also and have a diverse portfolio rather then having a portfolio of just one altcoin.
That may seem to be a good idea but personally I am against it, my goal as an investor is not only to make money like everyone else but my goal is also to make money in such a way that it doesn't take me a lot of effort to do so, and taking that into consideration that means that the more coins that I hold the more difficult it becomes to monitor all of those coins and to be able to tell what direction each coin is going to take during the next months or years, and I personally do not want to be watching the market all the time to make some profits.Five to ten coins all in all is not really a hassle to monitor especially if these coins are the top coins. If you have Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and Monero, for example, there is not really a high demand to keep yourself monitored every minute of the day. You are aware after all that these projects will not fall easily. They are the corner stones in cryptocurrency. There is nothing to fear if a week passes by and you have not checked on what is new to each one of them.

If you are saying that it is better to invest in Bitcoin alone, rather than in Ethereum too, I'm not going to argue with you, because I too think that BTC is a better choice. But I was replying to the post saying that one should invest in more alts than just in BTC and ETH, in order to not "put all your eggs in one basket", or rather "in two baskets" in that case.
Bitcoin is leading the crypto market at the present but i think at the end of the day, ethereum will gain higher importance than bitcoin because if its practical usage. Both are really important so we should learn to maximize them in our portfolio rather than focusing on some other newly coins.If you are saying that it is better to invest in Bitcoin alone, rather than in Ethereum too, I'm not going to argue with you, because I too think that BTC is a better choice.

I'm taking the side of the people saying that Ethereum will never gain higher importance than Bitcoin. I mean, even without going into technical details we can see that ETH has not replaced BTC although ETH has had more than 4 years to do so. And how could ETH replace BTC when the two coins could hardly be considered competitors? They are rather complementing each other. And I'd say, if almost all of the other alts die, and only a few survive, BTC and ETH will still be number one and number two, respectively.
I side with you.
Its not only ethereum, no altcoin right now is in the position to compete with bitcoin.
All altcoins right now are praying for bitcoin quick recovery, so that they may enjoy ride over it

there is no so called short cuts on not even btc because both alts and btc take too long to grow . you know that you bought seasonal alts ? but why didnt you dispose them too early ? seasonal means they are only going to perform that specific month ( whether a month or two ) and after that they wont become active again but good thing that you learn from your mistakes and your now only picking good coins which was btc and eth but these two coins are still somehow based on the news , fomo , an other factors .
December 14, 2019, 10:49:52 AM
In the past I bought a lot of popular altcoins of the season, and in a long term I lost money with then
Altcoins is a shortcut to gain money, but you have to be well informed and take quick actions to gain
For now I have my portfolio based on 5 cryptos, and obviously BTC is the first one with 55%, followed by ETH with 15%, the another ones are XMR, LTC and ETC
I don't want to buy coins only based on news, fomo, or the popular altcoin of the month
And you are right to focus on these 2 coins

For a couple of years too, I learned that I need to buy altcoins at deep especially if bounty hunters already sold their tokens, so I am watching out that way as this was what my common friends are doing then they are waiting for the buy back from the team, or another set of investors to buy and then they are selling, at a year it's good but now it is not advisable anymore so I managed to invest only in BTC/ETH too.

I love Bitcoin...LOVE it! But when it really comes down to it, I use Ethereum in actual, practical use cases. I recently bought something in USDC...which utilizes Ethereum. Stablescoins, ICOs, IEOs, SEOs, Defi will be built on Ethereum.
If you fall in love so hard with Ethereum explain me more about it, why?I mean Bitcoin have value, limited supply etc. Its stable, reliable and future-optimistic.
Then we have ethereum, with hacks, dao rollback, creator deciding to roll back transactions thousands of people or even more because of one hacker, no limited supply, questionable use-cases. I would like to hear im wrong somewhere.
Give me 3 good use cases of Ethereum where Bitcoin can't do them ( im not talking about margin hyper super loan posivite trading negative crazy options)
If he truly loves Ethereum he should also put an effort to love the alts on its network, without them the Ethereum network would not be as t is right now, I mean it is mostly used as a transaction gas, an payments to send another coin. If it isn't made for that then I guess it is no different than other alts.

So there can be a category of people who consider themselves BTC/ETH Maximalists.
I am one of them and we are many in this community, I love these two coins that sometimes i think that I only need these two coins to hodl and I will be ok, but we need to increase our portfolio and not to put all our eggs in one basket, so I still include some coins in my portfolio, but Bitcoin and Ethereum are two coins that makes the bulk of my portfolio.

Under 2017 bitcoin and ethereum look like have connected where bitcoin with higher price ethereum can potential to be on higher price too, but today when bitcoin can raise above $7k ethereum look weakness with lower price today about $144, how come ethereum and bitcoin have far away price not the same like three years ago when ethereum can up more than above $1k.
The main difference is that the hype behind ETH is over, there were tons of projects coming along and we all thought that the market is going to flourish with the help of the ETH network but instead all the shitty and scam projects who stole billions of dollars were the true highlight and what do you expect, that is the main difference and so we saw similar prices of ETH alongside bitcoin but after that bitcoin just left the station

Keeping ethereum aside with bitcoin is a good strategy if you are planning to invest in altcoins. Adding few other altcoins like NEO, TRON, LITECOIN, BNB can also be a good investment strategy, as they are all available at a discounted price. One may buy few of them for altcoin season that may come in the future.
Ethereum is a great combination with bitcoin or other altcoins. all investors has ethereum for back up and lessen their transaction fee's. it is also help us to not fear of too much dumping in altcoins because we know that there is ethereum that can be change immediately if there are problems. ethereum prices are not that totally dropping so we can sure that our funds are not that high risk.
