None of the above. Ethereum is just a sailing ship. Sometimes, it braves bad weather in the ocean. Sometimes, the weather is good and its sailing is perfectly smooth. I am referring to its price rising and falling. It is not sinking obviously. It is moving forward. Take a look at their lined up updates and you will realize how active it is. It is not a sleeping giant either. It is widely awake. It has yet to get back to $1,400 though.

I'd never consider a coin that has gone thousands percent up from its initial price as a sleeping giant even in the slightest. The premise about this PoS switching is promising but doesn't necessarily make it any better than it's now.
It might be worthwhile going with the latter on this topic simply due to the fact there isn't much competition market cap wise for Ethereum from similar platforms and its recent upgrades now give it a ranking of second place under EOS by CCID's global blockchain technology ratings index so there's plenty of potential once the market realizes it
Quite the opposite I think, once people realizes that these platform like ethereum which shares the same category as EOS or anything out there gives no real meaning, it becomes overvalued.

No need to worry about ethereum, because Ethereum has a professional developer. The current price is very bad and there are no signs to go up. But I am sure ethereum will rise when Ethereum 2.0 is launched soon.
we know ethereum as a valuable altcoin compared to other altcoins. Ethereum is the center of other coins for development.

Seeing that there are still many projects currently popping up that were built with the Etherum platform, then I think that trust still exists and is strong for ETH and will not sink to death like Titanic. In my opinion, it is true that all alt trends are down
but not many are serious. even most are junk coins. just look at how easy people make tokens with the ethereum blockchain and they can make their trash tokens with only very little capital. that's why ethereum is widely used as a tool to make junk tokens.
it all depends on how the developer resolves this problem. if you want investor confidence back then there must be something fixed. indirectly the junk tokens make trust in ETH also flawed.

I’ve been into Bitcoin since 2014. It’s always been my main thing, however I’ll admit I got swept up in the 2017 cycle and got burned on quite a few projects. I eventually consolidated back to 100% bitcoin.

Now I find myself in a situation where I really believe in Ethereum as the only other viable project. I’ve been accumulating Ether to the point where now I’m 80% BTC, 10% Eth and, 10% USDC (prepared to buy more BTC when the time is right).
10% is just enough and I have the same idea of how I divide my coins. Mostly the trusted Bitcoin of course.

That said, I am concerned about those stolen $100million in Eth. That can depress the value of Eth for years.
There is still no proof of this right?
Is it really that easy to bag $105M and just vanish like a bubble being popped? I dont think so.
They will undergo a lot of things before they could even take this out to hard cash.

Part of me wants to just sell my Eth for BTC and not look back. Another part of me wants to keep buying Eth as it goes down.

Any intelligent insights on this forum? Not a pissing match, not a shitcoin shill session. Just honest feelings about Ethereum from other veterans in the space.
I disagree to see. Ethereum price had just been playing at $120-130 and it had already been a while like that.
If that news was true, then we should have been seeing it fluctuate down until 2 digit numbers.
But look, it is still at $124.

Why the worry since you are holding just 10% ETH in your portfolio? Moreover vitalik and team are really working hard to keep ETH at its glory position or even surpass past success, i think you should think twice, ETH still has better chance of growing higher someday
Even 10% could make a difference on your portfolio. Who knows, that 10% might worth a huge amount of money, so yeah.

Looking for the past prices of eth, we couldn't reallt say neither it's a shinking ship or sleeping giant. We're not really undervalued which is the price never really reachead a very botton mark. We've had tons of increase and decrease these past few months even year. The experienced ones take that as a chance to make an entry and exit point.

I don't even know whether ETH 2.0 will get postponed or not, still, a great development takes more time to be completed. As to make sure nothing goes wrong and everything is in place.

it's a successful centralized scam pretending to be decentralized.

nothing more has to be said

it's not relevant to decentralized technology, decentralized altcoins, or decentralized cryptocurrency

Not a sleeping giant because its already pump so many times, and this dump is just a part of their progress. The top altcoins will not give up from reaching another peak and I believe ETH will bounce back next year and we will see ATH again. ETH will always be a good coin, a coin where you can get more profit and more usage.
Although I can not say anything about time, IMO ETH is one of the most important and successful projects that we all need. Yes, it is clear that news about Vitalik's recent sale of 30k and delaying of 2.0 has an impact on ETH negatively. But, the market needs it, I do not know better than ETH, which is suitable for second place. So be sure that the price will increase at the first opportunity and when the 2.0 update is over we will all see the price boom together.

Ethereum is definitely a sleeping giant, its the best altcoin so far and its still my favourite among other competitors like EOS and Tron, i believe with the upcoming upgrades it will deliver better performance
The better performance is actually true to consider ethereum has planned to upgrade the protocol with so many upgraded and will be added to the new features too. The real problem here does it make others wanna buy ethereum again to be used for the long term investment or not? So many people are putting big speculation to the future of ethereum but the price of ethereum itself doesn't even move from the current position to the above $140 position again which means if that is a really bad result.
TRON AND EOS are facing the same problem with ethereum too as their price keep plunged a lot. The protocol update is actually upgrading everything in ethereum but it does not always bring FOMO.

Although throughout 2019 the performance of ethereum is arguably disappointing, and now the price of ethereum is only at $ 126.
But it must be admitted ethereum is still the best altcoins. And I'm still optimistic about the future of ethereum, therefore I think
ethereum is a sleeping giant.Because I see ethereum developer is still active,they want make ethereum can be useful for the cryptocurrency
community by making various projects, one of the projects is ethereum 2.0. The planned launch in 2020 could raise ethereum prices.

Yea, I get where you are coming from. But, Ethereum has lots of potentials that are yet to be exploited. There might have been some glitches to this point in time, but I think Ethereum will get to its feet and boom.

And here is the funny thing in the crypto space: we can never be sure of anything. One minute, things are looking bad, next minute, things begin to look too good.

Hold with your Etherium and possibly buy more as it goes down. Don't take my word for it.

It's all a risk. isn't it?

to be honest, I just don't feel like Ethereum is sleeping giant at all and even right now Ethereum in my opinion is not overvalued. The switch to PoS might be beneficial for the whole Ethereum community but that's it, there's nothing more to it. In the past the price could get that high simply because all the things that revolve around Ethereum and the use of ERC20 that are massive but nowadays those projects have switched to their own mainnet leaving Ethereum blockchain's behind which also means they are dumping their ETH reserve.

For me Eth is definitely a sleeping giant and im very optimistic that not only eth is coming up with all those advancements in its network but also im expecting a bull run for eth far greater than we have seen as yet, something like the last bull run of btc, i think eth has the greatest potential to surge and grow from here.

Now we have an idea that the devs of ETH will sell again if we reach the peak of ethereum. And by that time, we shouldn't be ignorant and confident anymore and we have to do what exactly they are planning to do so that we won't be left behind.

I still have ETH and believing on it as long as there's an update and potential upgrade and development that it's trying to conduct for its technology. I still think that there will be a recovery for ETH but it's possibly that it won't be on a $1400 peak anymore.

If ETH 2.0 get postponed again i won't like it at all, many like myself are waiting and i belief that the Prove of Stake will make ETH have better value, we will see many whales buying and holding to get rewards

Any big change takes time! Moving a billion dollar valued coin into a different algorithm requires a great amount of effort and a lot of technical expertise. ETH will eventually move to POS but it is just taking its own sweet time.

Big whales as well as commkn people like us, are already buying it so that they can earn passive income from staking. The demand of ETH is only going to increase and not decrease post movement to POS. For me, it is definitely a sleeping giant right at this moment!

Even if we say that you can still sell your ETH as of these days, I guess that we're a little bit too late in selling our Ethereums. It's been a while since we saw pump from cryptocurrency. What I'm waiting now is the pump and the BTC halving. Once the halving happens, it would only be a matter of time to see a major pump.
