This thread had its last discussion almost an year ago. By that time the price of ethereum was within the range of $150 - $250. The growth from that point have reached the value higher than $600. The market has now started to move gradually along with the bitcoin price move. As a result with the decline in the price of bitcoin there is drop in the price of ethereum reaching close around $500.
Drop is normal for a market which has recently hype, bitcoin has dropped, so is ETH.
From $150, or even below $100, I saw it and I felt that one time people has lose their faith on ETH, but then it started to rise and slowly it's moving to a bullish direction, so I guess ETH is due for an increase of $1000 and reach a new ATH but the question would always remain, when it's gonna happen?
We never know, we speculate but there's no guarantee, but if we keep holding, we will certainly enjoy when that moment comes.
