Ethereum has an incredible utility, it is the best coin that exist at this moment, just like NEO.
Ethereum is not useless, that is the only reason of why it can keep increasing in a long term, because everybody needs to use it.
I expect some pull back on ETH/BTC pair but not so much as a lot of good news are coming from Ethereum team. You should better hold your position for long term. Not investment advice, of course.
I agree with you, I also want to hold ethereum in the long run, I think sooner or later ethereum will recover and this is just a matter of time, so all I need to do is just be patient
