First they called bitcoin bubble,now time turned for ethereum.. Ethereum has potential to grow its blockchain and current price is undervalued compared to its potential. Imo ethereum will be main blockchain for future icos again.

Yeah, but you ride wide the waves and keep stop loss like your best friend and no bubble can reach you.
The problem is that no one can know when that is going to happen, remember bubbles do not burst slowly most of the time it happens quickly and that is why most people are surprised when it happens, you just need to look at any historical bubble to confirm that is the way things happen.
I don't think to identify a broken bubble is too difficult, you can see the price of Bitcoin since 2013 until 2015, this is an example to know the bubble of Bitcoin was broken. It will happen fastly at first dump and decrease every day. The growth bubble of the altcoin market in this year was also broken when the price of Bitcoin increases.
Knowing when a bubble burst is very easy after the fact, you only need to look for a dramatic decrease in price that happens relatively quickly but to know when the bubble is going to burst is not easy, many were warning about the real estate bubble in the US but they expected to happen a lot sooner they did not knew it was going to happen when it did.

$26bn is a lot of money IMO, especially thinking only important thing that runs on ethereum is ICOs. Nothing else..
Seems like you're vastly underestimating the potential of "just running ICOs" on Ethereum. Do you have any idea how expensive it is to invest in the stock market right now? Or how difficult it is to invest into startups? It's impossible for most people today, and the blockchain (not just Ethereum) actually makes it possible for common people to invest in companies and startups that they like.

I think the ethereum is not a bubble and it has never been in the past like that. Ethereum is one of the strongest coins in the cryptocurrency world, and I think its popularity is rising day by day.

Based on Ethereum creates a lot of projects, so it is appealing to many investors. I don't think it's a bubble.

It's no more than a bubble than BTC, if anything it's much less likely that ETH is a buble. Reason:

BTC is focused on one and only one thing: the transfer of value. It's just an asset which anyone can buy and sell and send to anyone else, that's it. There is nothing more and nothing less to BTC.

ETH from the other side has so many applications. You can literally program anything you want with Solidity and create your own conditions (which don't have to be monetary) to take advantage of the blockchain. Additionally, ETH has already many projects based on it's technology, in comparison to BTC and that's a big thing. It means that people have realized the potential of the technology and it's fully utilized by using Ethereum and not Bitcoin!

I'm surprised by how many YES there are.. 150 vs 115 NOs.
How can Ethereum be in a bubble where it is one of the few coins which has an actual use and kick ass developer who really delivers and massive community??
Compare it with other coins which experienced the same growth and did way less than Ethereum, then we can talk!
I love bitcoin and I prefer it to ethereum ok, but ethereum is a very close second favourite and at the current price of around 300 bucks this doesn't really look like a bubble.

ETH price hardly ever move in the past 90 days compared to other coins and bitcoin

Price movement is too boring for an innovative hype coin; which tells us something?

With so many ICO projects launched on ETH platofrom and many more to come, it
still have lots of room to grow. Far from a bubble currently.
I do not know the statistics, but personally I spend a large part of my payments in the cryptoworld not in the BTC  but in the ETH.
ETH has useful properties and many people use it.

Ethereum is not a bubble because this is altcoin that has a very good development strategy and without Ethereum, we probably will not know ICO and know about other projects. For me Ethereum is a good investment and will definitely be profitable if people keep ETH
I share the same point of view, Ether have earned its own market demand and that would be its springboard every time it finds itself down. Apparently the Chinese  who were pushing it forward have now found new love in Bitcoin cash, Bitcoin gold and B2X and so we might no longer be seeing those momentum we used to see, but it would stay down for long

It seems our friends were not that visionary at all. Ethereum was and will never be a bubble. It’s a special coin that will keep on gaining value because it’s in every corner of crypto world.

Etherium to 1,000 at a minimum.  Once these ICO are up and running it's will move up.  It also has the network effect in its corner.  Not saying there won't be another protocol that will emerge, but it will be tough.

At the moment, the ETH is one of the few real currencies. ETH is used precisely as a money, and not as an investment in a bubble.

I disagree about ETH is a bubble opinion. Its price isnt volatile as any altcoins or even bth.
I also think this steady price ETH can be used as payment option due to less inflation in this

ETH is probably not in a bubble, but that doesn't mean its price won't drop. It has already gone up over 20x this year. A 60% drop would still mean higher growth than BTC.

So, if you believe BTC is in a bubble, you must agree that so is ETH.

If you believe ETH is not in a bubble, you must agree that neither is BTC.
