I think eth must recover soon. even if the price goes down, ethereum might also still have value because it is the first one of its kind, being the number one altcoin place on the market will remain with ethereum. ethereum is still a good altcoin, the only thing that drops it is the price and the request. but the usage still exists.
ETH is the most well known crypto by investors which prices has a potential to recover and can survive in a long time ,it seems that it's more likely on bitcoin .I believe it will remain profitable and can have a good comeback in this year end.
