Speaking in 2019, which will come soon, I'm sure crypto will be better than the current price. Ethereum can be said to fail this year and almost 60% of the previous price was lost, but the market is starting to improve and what I believe is the number of altcoins that improve its quality. everything that will happen we must be ready, because it is still a mystery and we can more or less just predict to do the next step.
Ethereum has lost over 90% of its price during this year actually. The price of 1 ETH was $1,389 at some point in January 2018, and today it is $113. If I wasn't confident in the much wider future adoption of such promising coins as ETH, I'd think this is the end. But I'm sure that the future world needs blockchain technologies and crytpo currencies, and that's why I see today's price not as a bad sign, but rather as a great chance for the new adopters to jump in. No one even dreamed back in January 2018 about seeing the price of ETH at the level it was in May 2017 again.
