Ethereum has been a project I've learned from the first day I've learned so far, but I've never invested in this project because it has several cons. In particular Vitalik is a problem in itself that is not the only negative thing that is present for me. I have never invested in the project for various reasons, such as the lack of deficiencies and mistakes, and most importantly, the fact that the project is far behind many alternatives.

Ethereum was a GREAT idea, but not-so-great implementation.

Many voices have risen concerns about the code quality.
Then there were hacks, not necessarily in Ethereum, still, maybe a better design could have avoided that (I'm not certain though, since it's impossible to have flexibility and stability/safety well together).
Then there were the bad politics that have split ETH and ETC.

I still wait for the better competitor to rise, still, they are way behind...

Intro:

Back in 2017 it looked as if Ethereum was on its rise to becoming a dominant crypto in this sector, then the crash happened...After the big crash the entire crypto market took a hit, but Ethereum seemed to take the biggest hit out of any top 10 coin in the market. Ethereum was eventually "gapped" by XRP. Recently Ethereum has been fighting back to reach 2nd place in the cryptoverse, but here's why I think this will prove to be ineffective.

Ethereum:

The biggest problem with Ethereum is ICO's. ICO's are becoming a thing of the past and STO's are starting to takeover. This could save Ethereum from plummeting further, but the issues is with the fact STO's won't be as big of a craze as ICO's were. STO's require REAL results, while ICO's were just ideas and white papers. STO's require REAL investors with a BIG net worth, while (most) ICO's allowed anyone to invest. The main issue is that not many people will be able to buy into these STO's. There also won't be as many of them as ICO's. I think STO's could actually be successful and potentially great for this community, but their impact on the ETH price won't be near as great as ICO's were.

Where We Are Today:

There are still tons of quality projects out there that have the potential for big rises. Bitcoin is the leader in this market and one can assume will always have some type of value regardless of fundamental uses. Nauticus has been generating a lot of buzz recently with their launch and there's potential for their NTS token to do well within this community. Certain STO's are making great strides in the market and appear to be legitimate projects that should further legitimize this community. WEAK PLAYERS are bailing on crypto & this is GREAT. We want all of the scammers OUT of this community, so that quality projects can soak up the money that is left behind.

I think we can easily see some huge ethereum pump when the new wave of growth comes. And even some ICO market revival will happen at that time. So, ether  has some future potential in my opinion.

I decided not to buy etherium because the developers have failed to checkmate, evaluate and verify the authenticity and veracity of the project managers using its blockchain to run various ICO.This has resulted in high instability on the future and price of etherium.In order words,there is also tendency that some genuine project managers using etherium blockchain might build their own blockchain, and once this happen ,the liquidity of etherium will be distorted.
However, I observed that etherium developers have not shown the total supply of etherium, and this is one the reasons I decided not to buy etherium because not showing the total supply of etherium means more coins could be created,and this is not a welcome development for long term investors.
there may also be truth from your statement, that indeed etherum has not shown its total supply so that the possibility of etherum is not limited and makes its value difficult to grow even higher in the future, and indeed investors will doubt it.

I think that Ethereum should be considered only in the long term. Too much has happened and it will take time for the situation to improve. But don't write it off. He will still be able to compete for his place in the market.
Not just with ETH but there's a lot of top coins who are suffering right now. It just happen that XRP is being manipulated and ETH was not. I believe of this coin not because I'm a hodler but because I have my trust with ETH and I know it will rise. We cannot force everyone to buy ETH, and you should not listen because investing is not about that.

Everyone has to decide for themselves whether or not they invest in ethereum. Whoever does the right thing at the end, will show up over time. I still trust in ethereum and am satisfied with my investment.

As for me, i still believe that Ethereum can still be used as a way of investment, or perhaps just for trading.
With all the market movement on ethereum, we can trade it and gain profit from it.

Most people won't do an STO because it's just too difficult to organize. You need to do lot of paper work and a good idea can be destroyed by such requirements. ICO was very weak yes, but it's quite difficult to organize a new STO.

I think ethereum will even benefit from the increasing activities of projects in STO unlike ICOs.
Now with STO investors can pay for the tokens they want to buy using a wider range of cryptocurrencies and when it is time to sell, they also have more trading pairs . this means lesser dumping to ethereum also lesser dumping of ethereum for fiat.
This is a win for ethereum and I believe it will make the price a lot more stable

Ethereum is a coin we cannot do without, most especially as an investor or a trader, which makes it  one of the best in the crypto world, except for its volatility. Even this same volatility that we talk of, is what enable some people to make so much profit from it. I am yet to see any coin that is as good and can withstand so much pressure as ETH.
ethereum is indeed an important part of the crypto world because ethereum has many functions that support the activities of investors and traders and developers so that ethereum is always needed and in other words, there will always be people who buy it and of course it is the main factor that makes it be strong coin

Am still waiting to see the impact STOs are going to make in the blockchain because right now the truth is that nothing actually seem to be happening since the Whole STO take over ICOs are still getting investments here and there and the market is growing big so i doubt is going to affect ICOs and also this has nothing to do with ETH

I respect your decision, but I would like to buy more Ehereum if I have money! ICOs are not doing well on the Ethereum platform, but there have many other platforms like NEO, Steller and so on and their ICOs are fail too. So, this is not the ETH's fault, rather the crypto bear condition is ruing our hopes. I don't think others coins will grow enough if Ethereum stops working!

I also have some doubts about Ethereum, but I believe that it will be able to get out of this state. Still, this is the most popular smart contracts platform and I also believe that the development of STO will help Ethereum to come to life again and get back its second place.

The new hardfork is going to pave the way for POS and also help with scalability and over inflation. All of these things will help to bolster the price of ethereum, for this reason it should be a part of everyone's portfolio

Well, it is you own opinion and I have absolutely different. STO can be a trigger for ethereum as well+ POS will make ethereum growing in a long term perspective!

This is an important point. Proof of stake can have a huge influence on the ETH price as it will motivate people to hodl Smiley

It depends on your understanding. But for me, until now, I have no problem of buying ethereum. Because ethereum coin was the best availability coin to offer in our country, so I have no problems with it.

Crypto currency investment is a matter of trust and trust in our future if we believe investment in crypto currencies is certainly no reason to buy and invest if you are hesitant to leave
