Do you think it has underperformed, or is it doing okay?
Mostly underperformed up to borderline okay performance. A lot of people who have little knowledge watch only the USD chart, which is wrong. Many people who got some ETH would have bought BTC instead if they didn't. If you look at the ETH/BTC chart it looks bad. It has bad performance even with all the lobbying and bribing that can come from a centralized project like ETH.
I disagree.
I was here when it first came out, even before the fork that happened which show ETH and ETC diverge their path. I can tell you that nobody thought it would be as big as it is today.
It was about 9 dollars when I first saw it, and I do regret not getting some, I wish I bought with all my money, but that is the old days and no need to keep regretting. So nobody assumed a 4k+ barrier would be broken when we were back at 9 dollar price.
All these "why isn't it 10k+" questions came in much later, when people saw the bull run it had in 2021.
There were even talks of flipping bitcoin at some point, when you get that much confident with your investment, what seems like an unrealistic expectation, becomes an expectation.
I saw BNB at $2 and $ETH sub 1k but I didn't get in..so I'll say I've got regrets but I'm trying to remedy the situation over the years by accumulating VIA DCA steadily or trying to explore events like candybomb to earn more.. I think due to the potential of ETH, exceptions were unrealistic but I'll say it's done fairly well. If you're looking for opportunities to expand your portfolio, you can checkout candybomb for ETH..spot trading gets up up to 1 ETH if you meet the requirements.

Regrets would be always that in the end and its always been like this and tons of people had missed out those opportunities because what most hinder us is that we've been that hesitant on taking up the risks because you cant be so sure whether the market would be pushing through forward or would be having that very deep correction. If you've been here into this market and been able to experience out those corrections then you would be having that kind of hindrance because you dont like to see your portfolio to be negative and thats why you would be having that kind of hesitation on making up a move and instead on making up some buybacks, you would rather be that stagnant and waiting up for some dump. On the time that you do get left behind then you would be easily get FOMO at the time that the market would be shooting up. Actually it would be that normal that we will be having those emotions at the time that we've been that deciding to make out some investment. Actually it would be just that depending into your own risks management since not all would be that having that confidence on doing so and thats why they would be that hesitant on doing so and there are those who are that wanting to make investment despite of those risks.
