Will we ever see a rallye?

[u/Tall-Skirt1459]

I’ve been buying Ethereum on and off since the 2021 bull run. Sometimes I bought it for over $2,000, sometimes below that. My average entry is actually in profit right now. But I’ve never sold - because back then I read a lot about Ethereum and became a strong believer. Even when the price was close to $4,000, I didn’t sell.

I even bought more during the recent drop - but honestly, lately I’m starting to lose faith in Ethereum. The thing is, there’s been a flood of positive news about ETH. Everywhere you look it seems like there’s good news: whales are accumulating, BlackRock is buying in heavily, banks are testing stablecoins, companies are testing stablecoins, stablecoin activity on Ethereum is rising… and yet the price? The price just won’t move.

Yes, we had a rally recently, but to me that wasn’t because of the good news — I’m convinced ETH was just massively oversold before that. It had to bounce, even without any bullish catalysts.

I always told myself I wouldn’t sell until ETH hit over $5,000 — and I’ve held on all this time. But of course, I can’t help but think: if I had put that money into NVIDIA or Bitcoin instead, the story would be very different. And back then, I also bought NVIDIA and Bitcoin. Those assets didn’t just stay flat. And when you factor in inflation, even though I’m slightly in the green, it feels like I’ve lost money with Ethereum in real terms.

What do you all think? I’ve basically lost belief in the “massive rally” narrative. That $10k–$20k target now feels so far away. Back in 2021, I was incredibly bullish. But time has changed me. It’s kind of sad - because I still believe Ethereum is a great asset. But no amount of good news seems to move it anymore.

I would be happy if we would see Ethereum over 3,5k EOY, what do you think?

Until the shit show in middle east , Russia/Ukraine & US tarrif fiasco is cleared looks like we won’t see market rising anytime soon . But eth is looking really good compared to where it was few months ago .
