I am a long term supporter of Ethereum and know that it is the most trusted network to create smart contracts but the kind of Huge fees for withdrawal and swapping of tokens, we have to nowadays due to slow network or congestion , is going to make it unpopular coin in coming months and other networks like, Binance, EOS, Polka Dot may take its place . The issue with Ethereum is that its developers are trying to scale running Blockchain which is like repairing a car while driving.
ethereum will never die forever because Ethereum is the best Platform of all time. we can see from the various developments made by Vitalik Buterin and the team. so don't be narrow-minded about the developments that are being made. don't just because of high transaction fees some time ago you say ethereum will die. this is a totally wrong opinion.
I agree with your opinion on ethereum's future potential but not with your assumptions regarding ethereum's cost comparison. because not all traders like transaction fees on the ethereum network (probably). and i have a good feeling if eth price can reach $3k this month. hopefully
