This year has been a very stressful year for the world of crypto.

not really. this year was just as good a year as last year, the difference was that you think you can only make money if prices go up. but the rest of the participants in the market know that they can make a lot of money when altcoins are getting dumped too.

Almost all coins have suffered the ups and downs fate of cryptocurrencies.

no, every single coin got dumped.

I have always had some high level of confidence in ethereum ever since I joined the world of crypto.

why did you have confidence in it?
- was it because you saw people talk positively about it online?
- or was it because you actually checked the project out, used it, tested smart contracts on ethereum platform, then tested them on other competing platforms, checked the code, the network, distribution,.... and a dozen other factors and then came up with that confidence?

you see where the problem is? you got caught up in some hype!

I still believe ethereum can rise again, what do you also think?

i disagree. ethereum will be pumped again. a pump is not the same as a rise. a rise is a natural increase of price based on real adoption and that kind of increase is never followed by a big drop. but a pump is an increase in price but it is fake and based on hype and other factors and it will never last long. there is always a dumping follow up.
