I'm making a prediction that Ether is going to shoot past $500 before the end of the month. The new ICO's, anticipation of dapps (decentralized applications) and .eth domains are creating a boom in demand.
"The Flippening" is also set to occur concurrently with this price rise. For those unfamiliar with this term, it means that the market capitalization, or market cap (Price per ETH x total ETH in circulation), will surpass that of Bitcoin's.
Of course, do your own due diligence before buying. Also, this doesn't mean abandoning Bitcoin for Ether. I strongly feel Bitcoin will also continue to rise in it's own respect. See my previous post on this. What it does mean to me is that abandoning some of your fiat currency for for ETH IS a good idea!
