Although the price of ETH is down and it provides investors a good opportunity to put their money in ETH but to me, I think ETH somehow loses its charm. There is news about ETH hard fork so the price will pump a bit so you can earn some profit but what will be the fate of ETH after hard fork is hard to tell because when you look at the BCH hard fork things may turn.
Well it doesn't look too good for ethereum's short term progress but we have to look at is as a working project already. Though it may take time, i'm pretty sure eth will recover, if not 2019 then 2020. It's a long term coin that's just in it's early stage.
it doesn't look too good for bitcoin either
or any other crypto
as long as cryptos are falling, there is no chance for recovering but as soon as bull run starts ether might be on of the biggest gainers
