ETH will be the only one reliable and decentralized global computer eventually.
some stages for whole industry IMO.
first stage:
bitcoin born, and the participants mainly are tech guys and individuals.
stage two:
many fork coins,everyone(still mainly individual) forked bitcoin to earn money,but now,almost all guys realized only bitcoin have real value and network effect.
So is the market,big money and institutional investor almost rushed into bitcoin.
stage three:
Ethereum born with fully new technical extension of bitcoin.
stage four:
as you seen,many forked platforms emerged with so called smartcontract to replace or surpass ETH.
But now,not individual，rather than many famous VC have created forks of ETH smartcontract,they are just scammers.
stage five:
You have guessed,all these forks will disappear gradually or become scam projects.
Ethereum is becoming the only one reliable decentralized global computer and smartcontract platform.
stage 6:
Assumption that new project born with fully new technical extension of Ethereum...

Nice correction! ETH is heading at least to 0.025 BTC
Good and if this correction reached at least half of the value that reached the beginning of 2018
You are talking about 500 usd, well, that could be possible by the end of the month if the increase will be consistent.
The last quarter is a good time for ETH to rise, just like what it did in the last 2017 and reached an ATH in the early in the following year.
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/#charts (we might see the same trend that happen in 2017, check the graph...)
It is at $216 and reached an all time high for the past few months of $223 earlier today.
The price is starting a race with XRP's price again!
I believe it'll be overtaken by XRP again which at the moment has a market cap of 50% of Ethereum.
XRP is a store of value because of its declining availability and a mean of transactions because of its speed.
But Ethereum is an utility used for apps, which at the moment is arguably something impossible to do with those gas prices.
I don't think Ripple will be overtaking ETHereum anytime soon and even if it did I don't think that it will stay at rank number 2 for a long time.

But XRP is centralized and has not the main feature of cryptocurrencies. Many people believe that XRP is not even a cryptocurrency. Also consider the Ethereum's upgrade to Ethereum 2 which will cause scalability problem to be solved. It is really difficult for XRP to overcome Ethereum.I believe it'll be overtaken by XRP again which at the moment has a market cap of 50% of Ethereum.
Ethereum 2 is being expected for more than a year now, so I'll reconsider my thinking when this comes... maybe by that time XRP is also hugely improved?
As for your other argument, I don't want to open a big discussion about XRP here, it has its own thread for that.
Let me only say that we don't have any truly decentralized coin in the high market cap league; for the rich people will always have a way to become richer (see ASIC manufacturers in Bitcoin, GPU farms in Ethereum, escrowed XRP for Ripple Labs).

This month ethereum could hit $250 easily, on the other hand gas price is getting high..

For that to happen we will also need bitcoin to be a little bit more stable because whenever bitcoin is bitcoin goes up or down mostly all altcoins suffers.

ETH 2.0 is what I am most excited about right now. ETH 2.0 + some mainstream company adapting ETH chain could help push ETH price above $350. Hopefully, they will soon make an announcement about that.
Is 2.0 ready enough to announce right now to all eth fans and users around the world? I heard they will introduce pos and sharding technology to boost eth speed performance, many new blockchain projects right now are also introducing this sharding as a solution for transaction issues which is really effective according to some testnets, if they will announce it this year Im sure you are correct price will increase rapidly. Nothing is scheduled for this year. The first stage of upgrading of Ethereum's network will take place on January of next year.

POS (what an unfortunate acronym) will be great when it gets going, for the health of the network I think, but I don't really get why people think it will be all that great to stake your coins. The interest rate isn't that much and the penalties if your machine gets hacked and tries to double spend are pretty severe. At least that's my neophyte understanding of it. I guess the rate is better than cash at your local saving's account but even a bog standard 401k will outperform it. POS seems like a technical necessity for growth and stability but it's not going to be a giant windfall to large hodlers IMO.
Ethereum is finally showing some bullish signs, what can we expect?

Even higher gas prices, that's what we should expect!
"You want to trade an item in NFT form? Great! Pay $0.50 to get it from point A to point B!'"
"Oh what was that? You want to breed those pets? That'll be $0.50 fee for the developers and $2.00 for the gas of the computation power"
Amazing things are ahead of us!

Although adoption is growing rapidly but who is this mainstream company which is about to go make this big announcement to give big boost the price. At the moment situation is totally different as compare with year 2017 than there was a big craze about new ICOs and now they want real use case to keep growing.
One of the few coins that is still mineable at home by a hobbyist and provides decent profits. Its going to suck when they go full POS and there is nothing left for the little guys.
It depends on how they'll implement it, if it'll reward even 1 ETH holders then everyone will be able to join if they want.
Unfortunately I think they plan to allow PoS only to the few top wallets.... in any case even now most ETH are going to the ones already rich enough to invest in expensive mining equipment.
But don't worry... judging by their past update speed, the PoS should be activated at about 2050!
I don’t know what everyone is wearing in this ETH, there are already many other blockchains where you can create your tokens, where the transaction speed is higher. Well, if the POS is introduced only for the elite (whales), just definitely do not need ETH.
Yeah I really like the ethereum blockchain and indeed very reliable, well bitcoin dominance is going down 67.4% and investors buying ethereum.
