How much will ETH cost in the future? I see it's 375$ now but will it ever reach 4500 like bitcoin?
no one can tell the future, it might just fail as a coin
Doesn't really mean much to compare the price 1:1 when there are 6 times more ETH in circulation. That being said, it would mean a 420 billion market cap for ETH; I doubt this will happen prior to sharding (which is years off at best)
I hold almost entirely ETH because I think it might actually happen; seems to have the best dev team/roadmap, so if any coin can pull off global scaling, ETH is likely the best bet.

What would that mean for the erc20 coins based off of eth?

Apart from it has yet to show a real world use except transfering of funds and creating new shitcoins.

your point being that you don't think blockchains are actually useful?
ETH is a general purpose blockchain; you can (or will be able to) cram any other coins functionality directly onto Ethereum - it is potentially every coin simultaneously
If Ethereum manages to scale infinitely there is literally no competition - why would anyone bother making their own coins when Ethereum already laid the groundwork

how much ETH do you have? I want to buy 10 but am scared

Eth was designed to revolutionise the economy. Transfering funds and creating new shitcoins is a fundamental part of that.

70 currently - been buying in steadily since $50. Most recent buy was 20 ETH @ 300. I'd buy more but most of my net worth is tied up in my apartment :(
If you believe in cryptos just do something like 70% ETH 20% BTC 10% shitcoins - this way you're diversified enough to profit from the overall direction of the market instead of gambling on the success of specific coins

why wouldnt it?

also I think if you intend to buy you probably have to get in soon since metropolis is incoming - I'm not an expert by any stretch though; take my advice with a grain of salt
