Ethereum is already processing more transactions than bitcoin, and the fees are much cheaper and confirmations much quicker. $1000 may seem high these days, but when you consider the market cap is just 100 billion, the room for further growth is enormous.

ETH is wayyyy undervalued. Your points make that evident. Plus, I still think that ETH can hit 2,000 USD by end of year hands-down.

Ripple on the other hand is overbought, but you know, it's going to still go up just cause in newbie's eyes, it's the cheapest popular option.

Go Ethereum!

I hope thats true, i personally have some ETH coins and it have being doing great. But im not so certain about it's long term future (hope it keeps growing this year like you say :)).

Biut when i heard from Dan Larimer (creator of Steem), talking about the incapcity of Etherium to really hold to a world's demands... i rather chose EOS... that machine was built like Steemit, to satisfy World's demand with no probs.

I think Ethereum is done already. Ethereum holders are lucky if they get the current Etherium price for their coins.For Ethereum holders, Its a great time to sell Ethereum and buy ADA.

You meant BCH right, not BHC? (bitcoin cash)

Your theories make sense regarding POS, but WHEN will it happen exactly, which month?

We think Ethereum will need to prove its ecosystem can produce something valuable other than ether. So which appcoin/apptoken/altcoin based on Ether is going to show Etherians the light?

I defiantly agree that (in the long run) ETH could have a long way to rise, especially if/when smart contracts get utilized. I personally don't think that 1k a coin is overpriced, with Bitcoin around 15k.

Sure, we had another run up past $1,000. And should expect another healthy pull back in the 40-50% area from last support. That would be a healthy and normal price action. In my opinion a pull back to $925 or so is just a buy signal. $2,000 by early March is a no brainer here. Here comes Casper!

Thank you @bitcoinflood for you insight. I concur. Sitting on my hands on ETH and almost added on yesterdays dip. Imagine the possibilities with ETH (and even more so with Steem).

The more ETH you hold in your wallet the better chance you have of earning more by being randomly selected to process a transaction. This is called POS (Proof of stake)
Does this also work if you say have a cold wallet / paper wallet? or do you have to be like part of an active online wallet to claim random rewards if you hold a lot? Sorry for my lacking technical know how

ETH needs recapture second place of market capitalisation rate from ripple

It won't cost more than bitcoin obviously but for now ETC is the best investment in crypto for this year and next years .
Bitcoin might go down now but ethiriums days have just started.

thanks for share crypto news... you is a great persion

Thank you
Very useful

All hail eth for crossing the long awaited $1000

Thanks for information, very useful!

I have a couple ETH that I would like to invest one into something else. I just got here on Steemit, so I should buy some steem and power up? Where do you think the price of steem is going? Any other promising altcoins you would suggest I look into? Thanks and great post.
