Eth is really a good hold right now with a very high spwculation to 1k before year end and is a strong one I think if you are new to crypto Is the best hold
Hold eth if you believe in its future development.
Its importat to know what you're getting into so have some research to grasp why most investors include eth to their portfolio. There's more to look forward in this coin and not only the value. So buy and hold for long period because it will definitely a good investment and likely to give profit to the investors.
We have two decision that would be make if we have etherium in our wallet.
The one thing that you said is to hold it and yes holding etherium is the only way if we want to earn more profit from etherium and this will be a chance to reach to $1000 if that happen. And the second thing that I would like to is to separate etherium into different altcoins and buy those top altcoins.
