i think ETH is going to have a good 2019 and also a lot of competitors that will try to overtake it, ETH is not the only coin that has smart contracts and is the only coin you can create tokens on, this is not saying the others will make it as eth did.
its defiantly going to be a good fight to watch as ETH is going to upgrade and give the new comers a good fight.
now im not saying ETH wont have another massive sell off and that i say as i dont see ICO's are so popular these days, a lot of last year's price action is thanks to many ico's that raised a lot of ETH which is not happening this year, this year we see the sell off and in my personal opinion there will be another sell off and once the price see that last massive sell off we can start getting ready to see some price action and by than were also going to be after the ETH 2.0 Upgrade so overall i think ETH at those prices is a steal and ETH is NOT dying and wont DIE so fast.
