ETH is highly correlate with BTC trend, and now Btc is not doing quite well
I disagree. ETH is not much affected by BTC price but it sure does puts much impact on other alts.
Once BTC starts rising, all the cryptos will eventually rise in price too.
2020 is the year that can bring an upward trend in prices as BTC halving and ETH 2.0 Update are going to be a big factor.
Yes you are right, ethereum price is not always correlate with bitcoin price
Sometimes, when bitcoin price drop hard, ethereum price growing in good movements,,
And my big hope 2020, crypto world will growing more than 2017, and you already mentioned two reasonable reason for that
