Newbie here... I've been thinking about buying my first crypto. I think I want to buy ETH, but wondering if I missed the boat already?
Primarily I'm choosing ETH because I think there are less foreseeable limitations than BTC, and it seems like ETH is basically accepted everywhere BTC is. Plus its cheaper

Is now a good time to buy it? Should I wait?
It depends on you, but I think that most would say that it's a good time because the price of Ethereum has been on a stand still recently. So, there are actually two ways to go from there; either you buy now, since it's already a good value, or wait for more time since it's value is not getting higher any time soon, or for the next couple of months. People use different strategies in purchasing the coins they are invest in, so if you feel that you have that sort of profit to gain a good amount, then go for it.
Looking at the price now is not going to give the investor any positive reactions. They need to just purchase low like you are stating.
