It is remarkable how resilient it is. I hope they can get the fees down as I have watched those grow as well.
Today, I bought a gym membership from a friend of mine and paid them in Ethereum and was very impressed with the low fees (.21 cents) and fast confirmation. (couple minutes) But as a store of value, Bitcoin is rocking it. Way better than a bank account.
Yeah, I mean people still have hopes that ETH will surpass BTC one day, and from a technical standpoint is a better coin in many ways. I guess part of it is the lack of exposure that ETH has compared to BTC and of course the other part are all of the ICOs.
I remember when ETH was just $5 a coin about a year ago.
