We have to be carful with price speculations. Crypto prices can go in every direction without real reasons. But of course I also hope for a bull market until summer, or at least a big recovery in the direction of end of 2017. Still a lot of shitcoins got hyped there too, that is something I would like to see not again.
There are always rumors. There are also rumors that Bitcoin is dead and worthless.
These rumors are there for a reason, to let people do what people who spread these rumors want them do.
But probably still not many because the rumours is still not hype.
Every coin is cheap right now, this is not really a bad timing to hold an ICO.
