Eth is a good invest by the way, taking advantage of price loss is the best move presently, if you are in for long term hold then don't bother selling your ETH, remember that the 2.0 upgrade is around the corner, it should feel more safer holding both btc and eth don't you think?

discarding ETH now will only make me lose, because I've been saving it since 2017 when the ICO trend. I have already entered, so I have also added more ETHs to my bag in 2019, with the aim of getting more ETH to patch up leaks in 2017. I hope the developer will soon realize Ethereum 2.0, and hopefully this can restore investor confidence in it. thus, the hope of a large pump may still occur.

You should think twice about selling your Eth for BTC. It may not be very good at the moment, but it will be a great opportunity for you shortly. Just buy Eth I'm also buying Eth left a lot
It would be better to buy both ETH and BTC and some other top altcoins that are experiencing a very good price increase, and this provides a good opportunity for anyone who holds it at this time.

BTC to the MOON in 2019

Has any one checked the market share of Ethereum lately? Ethereum now accounts for just 7% of all the cryptocurrency market capitalization (compared to 31% in June 2017). The trends indicate that this share may further go down and there is a real threat of ETH losing its position as the no.2 cryptocurrency. The developers are also not helping. They are postponing timelines again and again and as a result the users have lost their confidence in Ethereum. The perfect example is that of Ethereum 2.0. No one really knows when it will be rolled out.
ETH just get old real quick, their whole market is built up from the hype of smart contract back then and right now it's still a thing because they are popular enough to make almost all exchanges accept them thus giving broader chance of garnering the capitals though it's now slowly sinking.
Delay in ETH 2.0 will just spell their downfall and increase the lingering doubt among the community whether this coin is still worth it or not.
Delay might be negative but that would only make the price to go down and give us the opportunity to buy cheaper again.
Look at BSV now, people were thinking that CSW is fake but BSV just made a new ATH in just 24 hours.

This means we can never tell, as long as the project stays, they could rise anytime.

The perfect example is that of Ethereum 2.0. No one really knows when it will be rolled out.
The initial story was that there will be a total of 92,000,000 Ether when the ICO happened and people invested.
60 million - Pre-sale, 12 million - dev fund and ~18 million mined - 1 million coins mined per month for 18 months prior to going from POW to POS.

It is developing to a total farce, 18 months long gone, total supply no longer anywhere near accurate, majority of tokens outright scams, devs dont seem to care about scaling or implementing promisses

Keeping 10% of your assets in ETH is not a bad idea. I think ETH may be unreliable at the moment since the owner dumped the price however, there are so many projects using its blockchain today and it may just be around for a while. My problem is that most of the projects using Eth blockchain are not doing well and many more have already exit scammed
well, save ethereum with the amount of 10% of all the assets you have is good, I can say that's because ethereum has the potential to rise when the price of bitcoin experiences price increases like this then the price of all cryptocurrency will go up, so there is no harm if saving ethereum and the remaining 90% of capital you can use to trade on bitcoin or other coins that are rising sharply at the exchange place.

I honestly don't hesitate to say that ethereum is a giant altcoin that is sleeping. I personally am very confident with this altcoin, on the other hand I also will not hesitate to add some more Eth if I have capital. and I think some of the investors out there also have the same thoughts about the potential of ethereum for future investment.
Ethereum has experimented a significant growth during the last days but we still do not know if this is the beginning of something bigger or just a temporary correction, I really hope that this is the beginning of something big and that ethereum at least gets back to a price above 500 dollars, if ethereum is able to do that it is going to show to the world that it is still a coin that should be taken seriously and if you do not do that then you are probably going to miss on some easy profits.

in my opinion for ETH 2.0 there will be an increase in the potential and development of the technology, one of the first features to be introduced is proof-of-stake, and hopefully it will bring great changes to ETH going forward.
proof-of-stake goes back to 2012-08-19 (genesis of first pos coin).
If it sinks or becomes a giant depends on scaling, without it it sinks, with or without pos

Ethereum is really reliable. your accumulation of Ether to the point where I now 80% BTC, 10% Eth and, 10% USDC I find very reasonable in the current situation. Congratulations in advance.

Bitcoin is king but ETH certainly can make up ground in the future.
Definitely consider continuing to hold ETH.
Most of the decentralized finance dApps and projects, about 90%, are running on the ethereum blockchain. Defi  (lending, staking, analytics, tokenization, oracles, DAO, DEXs) is in its infancy but it will continue to grow and increase ETH's prominence.  ETH's future looks bright and will give a higher multiple ROI than Bitcoin.
For an excellent review of DeFi and why ETH will be king in the future, see:

So it is an easy choice,  go with ETH =  Sleeping giant.

I really like the fact that you recogn ETH as a giant altcoin project, but I don't think up to 90 percent of DAPPS and projects as stated are built on Ethereum blockchain. TRON and EOS also constitute a considerable percentage of the overral. That said, I'm holding a bag of ETH, now it's almost 25 percent of my entire portfolio, 70 percent for the king (BTC) ofcourse.

Quite right, but it seems to me that today it is Ethereum that shows the best scale of growth in its price in the entire cryptocurrency market, and these figures are even higher than bitcoin.  I believe that eth has really great potential due to its technical characteristics, in addition, the team brings a lot of ideas to life, which attracts the attention of investors and potential users.

I agree with you, EThereum plays an important role and I consider it a sleeping giant too. So much project are in Ethereum already from their Dapps, Defi, etc.  Thanks also for the resources given, this will also build confidence to other Holder, very promising for Eth ahead indeed.

I could only suggest holding some ethereum while selling the other ethereum and holding back to bitcoin. I think ethereum has an opportunity to grow, especially if the next update is running better as people will see how good the next update is. But if the next update isn't what they're looking for, ethereum will need much longer time to get back up. It will be up to you to hold some ethereum and sell it or hold all ethereum until the next release of the update. I believe it has a lot of potential to make people profit
actually ethereum is still one of the potential coins, but at this time the potential is probably not very profitable. so maybe for the time being investing a small amount can be utilized but we can make these investments in stages and have to be careful and also we can wait until the ethereum 2.0 update first to see its development.
