I think the process of recovering the Ethereum price is on. According to coinmarketcap, ETH price has increased by 1.11% today. The current price is, 211$ but if you remember some weeks ago ETH was below $200. So, I still do believe in Ethereum and hoping it might cross $300 within this year. For that, a massive boost is needed and I think ETH can do it. We should wait more & more because to be successful in trading patience is very important.
I agree, everything you said is correct, I am also sure that the price will go up soon, and maybe now is the time for investment and trade

what part of ethereum is disappointing as of this moment?
this year ethereum is recovered from depth of its value. from $90 to $200 is not a disappointment .

ETH stopped being a good trading tool the day ICOs died. this was near the end of 2017 so about 22 months ago not just this year alone! and ever sine that time it has continued going down. it is not disappointing, it is natural course of things.Quote
Sometimes, it even become very difficult to know when to hold or sell out some ethereum.
it is actually very easy.when something is on a downtrend you must not try to go against that trend. this means if you are a bag holder you must dump your bags the day it starts the downtrend. if you are a day trader then you can make a lot of profit by shorting that dumping coin. or if you don't like shorting you can still make profit from the "dead cat bounces" which means buying when it is showing recovery and dumping fast before the downtrend resumes.
you see, in trading you must adapt to the market instead of holding on tight to one strategy and wishing for the best! that never ends well.
Let's not forget that 2-3 years ago (Jan 2017), ETH was around 12$
And let's not forget that blockchain is still an experimental tech, that has a lot of steps to go before it becomes trully scalable and usefull for society in general.
So, if we don't trust that the proven team of ETH can continue to develop and find solutions to the present issues, who will we trust?

If you are doubting when to buy or sell ethereum, why not bother to learn some technical analysis or indicators for you to know when is the right time to buy such coins like ethereum. And I disagree that ETH is not doing well this year, it is still strong and doing good. I still gain profits from it. Maybe you are just pessimistic about ethereum but I can still see that it had a great potential.
Do not rush to sell the ethereum, this coin will still show itself on the good side, yes it has small problems with scalability and network speed, but we are waiting for update 2.0 and even if it does not cost $ 1000 then the price will increase at least 2 times and You will get your profit if you buy it now and continue to hold.
I don't think they are small problems... for me the most disappointing is not the price on exchanges but the problems to use it. The gas price is always changing and people constantly waste eth on failed transactions. Sometimes we can make a really cheap transfer but it takes 2 days. I wonder why people are not building more things on stellar, waves and others yet.
You need to understand that there are many bag-holders in Ethereum compared to Bitcoin. Someone about a month back did an analysis of the blockchain and did an estimated realized gains/losses calculation. Basically they used the price of the asset at the time a transaction was sent to determine if the position is in profit or loss.
They found that most hodl'er of BTC are in profit at the current prices, while for ETH there is something like 75% of people who are sitting at a loss. Hence the reason why whenever we get a pump in BTC its usually not as strong in ETH. Because people most likely were burnt and they just want to get out at break-even instead of holding and quite possibily it retesting the $100 area.
Then there is the possibility of all those ICOs which haven't sold their ETH. They had massive gains at the beginning of 2018 and if they didn't cash out yet, then they will use every opportunity to get out at the highest price possible. Basically ETH has too much selling pressure.

Ethereum has been quite frustrating for over two weeks now. Gas fees are so high and the network lags hugely. Reminds me of a tweet from Vitalik where he said that the network has little space enough to take more cryptocurrency projects on its blockchain. I hope Ethereum 2.0 improves the network because its highly needed at the moment
It seems to me that the last week of ethereum does not disappoint us, but makes us happy. During this time, its price rose from about $ 180 to yesterday's $ 213. Today, however, due to the sharp decline in the price of bitcoin, the price of ethereum also fell to $ 205. In general, the situation is encouraging. The last quarter of this year is approaching. As a rule, at this time, cryptocurrency is growing significantly in price. I hope this year will not be an exception. hero member

I think ethereum is not disappointing although the price now still at a low price. But at a few days ago, ethereum price trying to increase and now, the price reaches $200. Many of us have make a lot of money from ethereum now because they already buy ethereum at a low price and now they can sell it to get their money back and they make a profit. We will see another higher price for ethereum soon, and we need to be patient for more. And with bitcoin price now is down, I think it could attract the altcoin to increase.
maybe for some people holding ethereum because they believe that ethereum prices will rise again as in 2017 where the initial price for that year is almost the same as the current ethereum price.
I have Ether as a long term. Even a few months ago, ether was down, meaning that the price dropped rather large, I will still hold ether despite any conditions because the future is long, I only take advantage of altcoin as a short term.
In the course of this year, ethereum has mostly not been promising due to the many disappointing times we have experienced. Sometimes, it even become very difficult to know when to hold or sell out some ethereum. All the same, many people who trust in altcoins have kept some great faith in ethereum and that is an amazing motivation that ethereum can really bounce back and be the strong force most hodlers wish for.
This comment is not new. And most of the time, if not always, this kind of comment comes from people who are also new to the crypto world themselves. If you want to stay long in this world, you will have to develop your patience. Waiting for your coin to fly is not a short wait. It may even take years. And if you fail to be patient, you are doomed to lose.
Whining against Ethereum for making you disappointed is a little bit blind and naive. Look at the altcoins, are they not also suffering the way Ethereum is? And when the green candles started to rise among altcoins, isn't it Ethereum that was leading the rally?
If you look at the distance between the price of Bitcoin and Etherum it is indeed very sad because the price difference is very far, if in the past Etherum prices were in the range of 10% - 15% of the price of BTC. Some days I see Etherum has begun to stretch, hopefully it can go up and reach at least 10% of the price of BTC
Ether this year of course, has not been a good coin to hold and hope for better returns. I only held some ether for the long term unlike coins like BTC and XRP that I am holding for the short term profit sake. I think the market is changing its trend so I have to start adding more ether to my holdings to also become a bag holder.
It caused by etheruem is still placed in the second place of coinmarketcap. A little bounce has already happened with ethereum and what's wrong with it? as far as i can see about the fact that this bounce will bring ethereum to another bullish trend. Bitcoin's dominance should be the main factor why ethereum gives this reaction.
The bull trend for major crypto is not yet coming dude.
I just keep some ethereum to anticipate it and this is how you can play in the crypto.

Are you being sarcastic or what?!
Ethereum is on the good path by now taking a great leap to $200+ again.
Sure that is still valuable since most of the coins by now are all full of dump.
My portlfolio is full of dusty coins which have been sitting there for a long time. Unlike Ethereum most of the coins now went to zero value or bankrupt.

Recently ETH has been doing great, from around 170$ to above 200$ is a cool step forward. Holders who didn't panic sell will be smiling right now and the ETH 2.0 news might still push it further. It's true that holders of ETH have been waiting for long without reasonable uptrend. Some argue that ETH won't do well again because the ICO era is over since ETH was mainly used in purchasing ICO boosting its price. I do believe ETH will be very beneficial to hold for long term seeing the project development on ground.
I do not understand when we complain about a coin disappointing
By now; everyone knows that the market is volatile and prices go up or down
So as an hodler or investor; you need to master a strategy to let you buy more dips. And stabilize your investment before a dump
In my opinion this is one of the easiest thing to understand, this is about greed, if you look at the fundamentals of ethereum you will see a good coin that is still being actively developed, it has a decent volume and even if it's price it's kind of low this only means that this is a good opportunity to buy ethereum for a low price and hold it until its price begins to recover, but people do not want to do that they want to obtain fast profits without any effort and we know that is impossible.

Disappointing is an understatement, for me the new Ethereum 2.0 must be got right, if the platform fail to scale then bye -bye and this will be then end of the road for the platform. To me we need a truly decentralize platform in the space that can indeed give bitcoin a ride for it money, competition is health for the space but most of these projects can't compete
In the past of Ethereum this really drops a lot like again in again still this grow so in some ways this is disappointing then still this came back
Then base in the development since 2017 and in the past years of Ethereum like a lot really happen by this like more adoption so that's why this grow then this are already popular and trusted by that so we can use this in an investment
