If that makes sense?
Well if it is a shitcoin then you make sense but if the project is also a promising one but just starting then it doesn't. Ether had grown so much that the potential growth of it in terms of multiplier became smaller. With the same capitalization, if the cheaper coin has really potential and just starting then profit wise, it can give us more profit than ETH once its project are established. Ether works that way and if during those times (when ETH were just starting) Ether holder didn't keep ether and changed to prominent coins during those time (Litecoin, Bitcoin) then they won't enjoy the current price ETH gives.
