We've seen the price of Ethereum already hit $2400 and that's before Christmas. But I believe that with Christmas coming up, the price of Bitcoin and many other coins, including Ethereum, is likely to increase more. ETH is a reliable coin to HODL for the future and can offer high returns. And the value of this coin certainly I think has the potential to touch $3000 before Christmas if it continues to get higher. However, as the current market conditions show that all coins are trending higher and trending towards this or that position, holding Ethereum will give you a profit.
The price of Etheruem will soon go more higher to show increase but as few days ago the price reduces to 2100$ so that decrease was actually due to Fluctuations in the Bitcoin price. The price of Bitcoin was reduces to 41k$ and that of Etheruem was 2100$. Currently the price of Etheruem is 2250$ which means that it is again in pumping position.
Christmas is near and we are guessing that price will not reduces more than 2200$ but will increase and as few days are remaining in coming years so there is also a hope that 3000$ of price will be attain by Ethereum before halving.
