以太坊跌至2018年最低价格，跌破270美元

?

全球市值第二大加密货币以太坊目前跌至2018年的最低价格。据CoinDesk的Ethereum Price Index (EPI)的数据，在周一16:50 UTC时段，以太坊自2017年11月12日以来首次跌破300美元。

The second largest encrypt currency in the world market has now fallen to its lowest price in 2018. According to CoinDesk's Etherum Price Index (EPI), at 16:50 a.m., the Taipa has fallen by $300 for the first time since 12 November 2017.

截止至发稿，ETH目前交易的平均价格为264.92美元，24小时跌幅为17.42%。据CoinMarketCap的数据，截至发稿时，ETH是市值最高的10种加密货币中跌幅最大的币种，在此期间，100多亿美元市值蒸发。

At the time of submission, the average price of the ETH transaction was $264.92, a 24-hour drop of 17.42 per cent. According to CoinMarketCap, at the time of submission, ETH was the currency with the largest decline in the top 10 encrypted currencies, and over $10 billion had evaporated during this period.

实际上，ETH现在已经彻底跌破去年交易价格289.96美元，并从历史高点1337美元下跌了78%。据CoinMarketCap数据显示，所有加密货币的总市值已从2,194亿美元的日高点下跌近150亿美元，目前仅略高于2,050亿美元。

In fact, ETH has now completely lost the transaction price of $289.96 last year, and it has fallen by 78% from its historical high of $1337. According to CoinMarketCap, the total market value of all encrypted currencies has fallen from a daily high of $219.4 billion to nearly $15 billion, currently just over $205 billion.

Ethereum有可能会跌至200美元的水平

与此同时，加密货币市场普遍出现了下跌，尤其是自美国证券交易委员会（SEC）宣布推迟比特币交易所交易基金(ETF)的决定后，加密货币市场做出了负面反应，以太坊也应声下跌。

At the same time, there has been a general decline in the crypto-currency market, particularly since the announcement by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of the postponement of the Bitcoin Exchange Trading Fund (ETF) and the negative reaction of the crypto-currency market, which should also fall.

加密货币量化对冲基金BloomWater Capital创始合伙人Biswa Das曾表示，有些项目因为担心熊市现状，为了负担经营费而变现了ETH。这些创业公司正在筹集大量资金，但由于没有足够的资金管理或现金管理经验，因此抛售得太早，给市场带来很大的压力，使如今脆弱的加密货币市场雪上加霜。

Biswa Das, a founding partner of the encoded money hedge fund Bloomwater Capital, said that some of the projects had been realized to cover operating costs because of concerns about the current situation in the bear market. These start-ups are raising large amounts of money, but they are being sold too early because of the lack of sufficient funds or experience in cash management, putting considerable pressure on the market, adding to today's fragile market for encrypted currency.

去年，在以太坊从不足10美元飙升逾100倍的高点时，ETH占加密货币市值的32%，比特币增长更加快，占约39%。因此，有人推测以太坊最终会取代比特币成为最有价值的加密货币，这种推测被称为是“轻浮”的。Das说，那些在以太坊最高点筹集资金的项目将是最迫切需要出售的项目。Das曾帮助初创企业在多个交易所进行销售，以尽量减少市场影响。

Last year, at a height of more than 100 times from less than US$ 10, ETH accounted for 32% of the market value of encrypted money, and more rapidly increased by about 39% in bitcoin. So, the assumption that the talisman would eventually replace Bitcoin as the most valuable encoded currency was called “lightly floating.”

ICO套现带来的压力与加密货币市场普遍的看跌情绪交织在一起，由于担心监管收紧和采用缓慢，加密货币市场的市值从1月份的逾8,000亿美元高点降至2,000亿美元左右。

The pressure from the ICO setup is intertwined with the general perception of decline in the crypto-currency market, which has fallen from a high of over $800 billion in January to around $200 billion owing to concerns about tighter regulation and slow adoption.

由于以太坊竞争者层出不穷，人们担心其无法承受足够的交易量来支持面向大众市场的DAPP，这也给今年的数字资产带来了压力。在筹集数十亿美元的同时，大多数ICO都没有制作出有效的成品，反倒是许多ICO存在欺诈或安全问题。

This year’s digital assets are also under pressure by fear of being unable to sustain enough transactions to support the DAP for the general market, owing to the proliferation of rivals. At the same time that raises billions of dollars, most ICOs do not produce effective products , and many ICOs have fraud or security problems.

区块链资本有限公司的Spencer Bogart说:“投资者对代币和ICO越来越失望，其中的大多数ICO都是在以太坊网络上发布的，我们看到ETH在市场上的表现伴随着持续的价格下行压力。”

Spencer Bogart of Block Chain Capital Limited said: “The investors are increasingly disappointed with the tokens and the ICO, most of which are published on the Ethernonet, and we see that the performance of ETH in the market is accompanied by constant downward pressure on prices.”

Autonomous Research LLP的莱克斯?索科林(Lex Sokolin)上月在一份报告中写道，假设ICO的清算规模在50亿美元左右，导致以太坊价格持续承压，由于市场人气不断恶化和流动性较低，负面影响被放大。

In a report last month, Lex Sokolin wrote that assuming that the size of the liquidation of ICO was around $5 billion, it led to continued pressure on tatai prices, and the negative effects were magnified due to deteriorating market ethos and low mobility.

研究网站Santiment整理了一系列使用以太坊为基础的项目，预计在过去30天内，初创公司消耗了超过11万以太坊。

The research website, Santiago, has organized a series of projects using the Tai Pa, and it is expected that in the last 30 days the start-up companies have consumed more than and <110,000 ePam .

Das表示，初创企业不太可能通过以太赚钱，但从长期来看，在平台上建立和持有ICOs的持续需求，应该会导致市场反弹。以太坊一直是初创公司开发基于区块链的应用程序最受欢迎的平台，因为超过90%的项目都使用该平台。

According to Das, start-ups are unlikely to make too much money, but, in the long run, the continued demand to build and hold ICOs on the platform should lead to a backlash in the market. Ethio has been the most popular platform for start-up companies to develop block-chain-based applications, as more than 90% of projects use the platform.

以太坊的历史价格回升

At the historical price of Tairyu, it's back up.

在过去的一年里，以太坊在下跌后的恢复记录并不理想。然而，它今年出现了一些不俗的回调。

In the past year, the recovery record of Ether was not ideal after the fall. However, this year it came back with some kind of squalor.

2月2日，以太坊价格从872美元跌至2月6日的649美元。这意味着在短短3天内下跌了25%。然而，ETH在接下来的几天里开始了牛市行情，以951美元的价格上涨了30%。

On 2 February, it fell from $872 to $649 on 6 February, which means that it fell by 25 per cent in just three days. However, in the following days, ETH began its cattle market and increased its price by 30 per cent at $951.

4月7日，以太坊再次从高点开始稳步下跌，至370美元的低点。这意味着它在两个月内损失了超过60%的市值。但ETH价格并没有持续下降，因为它开始缓慢上涨。

On 7 April, Etheria again fell steadily from a high point to a low of $370. This means that it lost more than 60% of its market value in two months. But ETH prices did not continue to decline, as it began to rise slowly.

到5月4日，它已经恢复了54%的损失。以太坊从370美元的下跌中回调至最高价816美元。这表明，即使在经历了大量损失后，以太坊依然有恢复的潜力。

By 4 May, it had recovered 54 per cent of its losses. The return from the decline of $370 to the highest price of $816 showed that even after extensive losses, there was a potential for recovery.

尽管过去几月，以太坊价格已经从历史高点回落，但有投资者仍对该货币的潜力充满信心。

Despite the fact that in the past few months the prices of the Tails have fallen from historical highs, some investors still have full confidence in the potential of the currency.

目前，它仍然被认为是世界上应用最广泛的加密货币。即使是这样，当时机成熟时，它才能恢复失去的价值。

At present, it is still considered the most widely used encrypted currency in the world. Even then, when the time comes, it will recover its lost value.
