The only late time is later. If you are getting in now you are still in the 1% of the population who own ETH. You might be reading many posts lately about new millionaires being made and feel sad/disappointed that you "missed out". Just remember crypto is in its infancies. Could better gains have been made investing early? Sure. But hindsight is 20/20 and you're in now. This might be the only time in our lives we will see returns like this... even if youre buying now for the first time. Just be glad!
TL;DR: ETH to 5k by 2019.
Of course this is a perfect time to enter this market, because now more than ever the conditions are given to take advantage of the great volatility of the market to obtain constant benefits. Never before in the history of bitcoin and the market in general had such volatile volatility been observed, which is why in recent times more wealth is being reaped in this field than in all the previous years, and even in my personal case I have only a few months in this business, but I have obtained more benefits than I ever imagined I could earn.
