Firstly, in the last Bitcoin fall it was impossible to get out of the injury. Ethereum is one of them, the price has reached an unexpected point. All I know is that '' constantinople '' hard fork has been extended to this month, maybe it can help a little price increase. Otherwise, if Bitcoin doesn't recover, it will be difficult to see a steady increase in others.
I think Hardfork is not the key to increasing prices, to be able to raise ethereum prices at least bitcoin prices should be able to rise first because the price of ethereum movements follows the price movements of bitcoin.
Not only ethereum but price of almost all Alt coins depends how BTC is performing and with current declining price of BTC it seems inevitable that ethereum price will further go down.
And it's good time to add ethereum in your portfolio, as its price is very attractive.
