Ethereum in the last year has seen some of the biggest growth of any coin and is now widely considered to be one of, if not, the most promising cryptocurrency. That got me to thinking, what did people think about the future of Ethereum this time last year, I got to looking and came across this article

The very headline says enough, Ethereum isn't for holders, most of the reasoning being that the supply would increase too rapidly. Almost makes me glad I wasn't around in early 2017 to follow that advice which I would later come to regret.
Flash forward to 2018 and on the same news site we have this article
https://cointelegraph.com/news/ethereum-surpasses-1000-for-the-first-time-factors-behind-increase
Highlighting Ethereum's rise to $1000 with mostly overwhelming positivity for the future. All this goes to show guys and girls is don't trust all of the so called experts who write articles for news sites, make your own judgments and be bold in them. At least then your mistakes will be your own instead of those of someone else because you couldn't take the time to do your own research and make your own decisions.
Where will we be with Ethereum in 2019? My guess - somewhere writing about how Eth is either already the no 1 crypto or is coming close to overtaking bitcoin.

Many people were wrong about Ethereum as well as other cryptos, just like they will be wrong about their predictions this year and every year in the future. It seems that this though was a really bad call by the news writer and I'm sure if he's still about he probably regrets that one quite substantially. Ethereum is definitely a good hold for 2018, not to gain huge amounts of profit but just to have a strong and secure coin that's likely to do 2x-5x.
Why do you think that is? You would think that from a logic point of view it would be the opposite, because the supply is always increasing. Perhaps because miners generate an interest in the coin?
