I was not buying ethereum before and last year I see bitcoin as the only good Cryptocoins to hold.
Honestly, I still only believe in bitcoin. Ethereum has some problems with the network and there are recent mixed-message media news. I don't think it can recover so easily, but this space is so dynamic that I could be wrong. I think what's keeping Ethereum alive and even at this level are the ICOs and ERC20 coins that run on it.
