I wonder why Etherium has been stagnant over the past few weeks without any significant rise in price. It became stable which is good. However, it dropped two fold since its maximum achieved in the end of January 2018 when the Bitcoin and majority of altcoins were slumping. I have seen many posts ans articles about the Etherium overpassing Bitcoin this year, but it seems not much to be the case as of now...
I believe Ethereum are becoming more popular due to their efforts to capitalize on the more useful capabilities of blockchain networks. However there are times that it is slow moving. This is common scenarios in the crypto world. Not all tokens are active. There are times that they still recovering from their fall down.
