ETH price is pretty high for newcomers, I wouldn't buy at this price with my own hard earned money. We can put some stacks into crypto easily because we won all our money from here again, we don't take more risk like you do. If you think about long term investment I suggest you to buy crypto with only a small amount of your money right now. Expectations are second round of bull run but it may not happen. In that case you have to wait years to even recover.
I do not think the price is high at all given what it was earlier and along with Ether, I am investing into ICP (internet Computer) because they are trying to decentralize the whole web and I don't know how close they are in their plans but if they can actually achieve what they are claiming, I guess ICP would be among top 5 coins of all time.
The best coins to invest right now: Eth, Btc, Icp, Solana and some cheap ones like Tron and maybe EOS.
