ethereum is just doing fine. Things never changed much. Its still solid. When it was 12 dollars and when it was 400 dollars. Ethereum was ethereum. The underlying tech never changed. Granted it got tested to some limits lately. But these are the things that the ethereum team will be working on. The price vs whats going on behind the scenes do not go hand in hand at all. The price is driven by greed and emotions of the market and not always necessarily about the tech.
