Well.. Ethereum isn't very trendy anymore, that's true. But I still think it has tons of promise and they are making a lot of progress on 2.0. I feel like its amazing some people are thinking of giving up on it before 2.0 gets launched.
I did actually buy some DOT on Kraken today though. Because that also looks like an amazing project. And in the end, everything is basically a popularity contest. So regardless of technicals, momentum, or anything else, Ethereum could actually become completely uncool in X months or years. And PolkaDOT or something no one knows about could be what everyone uses. Maybe after WWIII its the digitual yuan for a few years.. but then the superintelligent robots take over a few years later and everyone has to use metashekels or whatever that human brains can't even comprehend.

libp2p looks really useful by the way.
