if to make ethereum as a long-term investment then this is the right time to buy, soon 2.0 will be present and maybe after that we will never see ethereum prices like now because ethereum will continue to increase but with the note that bitcoin keeps its price
Ethereum is a good coin and it also one of the coin to invest for a longterm but I'm starting to believe most ETH investor hype about the 2.0 is much that the momentum ETH market will pose after the 2.0 is implemented.
With that been said, 2.0 wont be the important reason Ethereum will surge in price but the trust crypto community had in the project.
