Firstly, not to worry. Apparently someone unloaded a ton of Ethereum coins on the GDAX(Coinbase) exchange today for $13 a coin! Perhaps this was a mistake, or a hack, but I doubt it was on purpose. The exchange immediately resumed normal exchanges around the $310 area.
Ethereum also received a bit of a difficulty reduction today, as a few miners probably got concerned and switched to mining other coins.

I'm excited for the low prices of ETH, and looking forward to it going higher as the difficulty increases.
Full disclosure: I'm an ETH miner, and a long term HODLER. Blah Blah do not take my opinion as trading advice.
typing mistake for sure haha
