Ethereum as a store of value?

Benjamin Cowen, a well-known cryptocurrency analyst, says he’s looking into Ethereum (ETH) to see if the main smart contract platform has what it takes to be a store of value.

Cowen believes that while many investors see gold as a store of value, the precious metal has remained nearly flat over the last decade, according to a new interview on the bitcoin channel InvestAnswers.

Since ETH’s value has increased about 50 times in the last year, the crypto analyst claims that Ethereum is a superior store of wealth than gold. The risk for drawdowns and lengthy consolidation periods are his caveats for storing capital in ETH. 

He believes Ethereum, like Bitcoin, will rise in value over time, and the concept of’store of value’ applies as long as you have the correct time horizon and your definition of store value isn’t one that must constantly rise monotonically.
