I do not care about the size. I focus on the feartures. If it is a good coin which can be used in life, it will not die. ETH is one of them.

But for a newbie, ethereum is not easy to use. Even bitcoin is easier because you can use mobile wallets or any other stuff. Ethereum wallet (MEW) Is a mess, i am always having trouble with it, and i have been in cryptos for more than five years.

This is only market cycle. Just relax and look the Big movement of btc. Similar movements all the time. I think ETH is pretty similar to BTC. Both are big and their names advertise themselves. If there will be something better than ethereum (it already exists, but much more less popular) than ethereum team will just adapt and upgrade their project.

I believe that the fall of ETH is a temporary phenomenon. This coin is very strong and in demand for ICOs. The growth of the market will bring a very large increase to this coin. We have to wait until the market is restored.

Eth is too big to fall until other projects begin to switch to new smart contract based blockchain like ADA or WAVES and NEO to host their projects.

I believe has to introduce some sort of fee like 5k to be able to have ICO because there are too many scams going on that just cash out instantly.

bitcoin's value is based on its monetary properties and less on its technical qualities. as long as it functions as advertised then 'good enough' is a powerful incentive to keep refining it. it only has one job to do.

ethereum is of course huge too, but its fundamental value proposition is utility. it's effectively a software platform, not money.

since that's the case then is the case for it being usurped by something that does the job better higher than bitcoin?

if something that doesn't require learning a new language, is much more foolproof, that addresses scaling and blockchain bloat comes along with enough oomph does it have a shot at unseating ETH or is everyone now incentivised enough to make ethereum the one?

personally i don't think ethereum's future in fully in the bag and people are learning more and more every day. what do you think?

I also think that ETH can not fail. Because if it would fail this would mean that all ETH based projects will die. This would be end of crypto. Cheesy

it can be a big problem if the eth fails, but I will not be sure if eth fails. eth can be a good bitcoin companion coin in cryptocurrency and have a nice future for price and sales

The problem here is ETHEREUM is not effectively used to build Dapps on it's platform instead people are using it as an ICO raising coin. This is actually bad for Ethereum because ICO owners won't care anything about ETH, they just need $$$ in their account. For this reason they dump their ETH holdings.

The announced adoption of ERC-20 tokens by Coinbase is a good support for ETH after the wave of ICO ads bans. Anyway half of Coinmarketcap's top 100 are ERC-20 tokens and too big part of ICOs runs on ETH platform, so i think ETH is really too big to fail now.

The vast majority of those tokens are worthless and are gonna get slaughtered in the coming rout.

I wouldn't class them as an aid to ethereum's value going forward. Great demonstration, terrible 'investment'.

The main thing we're gonna take away from this in the aftermath is how it was even more empty a pump than 2013 was which is really saying something.

There are few people only saying that time bump will not be live longer in the market and consider like 2013 dump bro.

Since those useless project in the market we will not be able to find the right project which has the potential to bump.

I expect the ethereum will be go back to its peak value buddy. No need of fear for the cheap dump move done by the whales.

In the end when most of ICO tokens will start to crumble, and they will, the whole Ethereum ecosystem will be shaken but, on the long run, the Ico debacle will turn into a positive thing. Still waiting to see what Eth real value is

Eth is here to stay alongwith btc, do not worry about the price at the moment, if you are a real supporter of eth platform, also current fall was due to overall market correction, im sure we will have good times ahead.

Almost nothing is too big to fail, and Crypto is not an exception. Eth is not too big to fail for sure.
But it gains value from the network it created, and is significantly expanding. So i's say it will only fail, if it will stay the same for ever.

I believe that's correct.
Although anything can happen to be honest. If everything just gets washed up, ETH will too.
But I doubt it will ever happen lol

Yes. I believe it is too big to fail. It has solid foundations and countless new projects growing on top of it. It might go down but won't fail.

Yes, from a reduction in the price, no one is immune. But the Etherium is already a very large crypto currency, which legally takes the second method, after Bitcoin. I do not think that this coin can disappear without a trace.

Ethereum came out to address problems of the first-generation blockchain by introducing the innovative concept like the smart contracts and soon became first choice blockchain for ICO's.
If BTC is value over the blockchain then ethereum is like relationships over the blockchain. It a platform that has all the spark to beat BTC.

Ethereum is big, because it contributes around 20% to the entire cryptocurrency under circulation. Another thing, with ETH as the base lot of other tokens too have gained good popularity as well growth. In this context Eth could grow rather than a fail.

Yes you are right with that one because ETH is so fundamentally good to fail like other altcoins out there right now I think the market is starting to bull but I hope it is not bulltrap if this bullish is really true we will see ETH will set it's new ATH.
