I think ETH is a good altcoin for investment. I predict the ETH price will touch $ 13k at the end of this year. Because many project use etherum platforms and ethereum are a very popular coin.
I think you may have been mistaken. Agreed that many ICO projects use Ethereum's platform, but an increase of $ 13,000 to ETH is not feasible, only the BTC rate could increase to $ 13,000 in 2018. ETH in 2018 can only increase to $ 2,000 maximum.
In the current situation to ETH up to $ 2000 is too difficult, not easy ETH can reach such price, in my opinion should not expect too high, so expect ETH at the price of $ 1000 at the end of the year now or in early 2019 is the most reasonable. That's pretty pricey for us to wait. and it is likely to happen.
