you can't (or shouldn't) value ethereum by comparing to bitcoin (price). this doesn't make sense.
try to estimate the potential marketcap compared to other, crypto external companies, targeting a
similar sector. within the finance industry for instance. if you count in the ecosystem, spin offs
and number of devs working on projects and so on, you can see there is a good change ethereum will
hit higher single to lower double digits macap within the next years. these numbers are neither
unsual nor very high within this sector. so yes, ethereum could easily reach a 'much' higher price
than btc just by it's additional - and so far - unique usage scenarios.

and the first bunch of financial institutions are jumping aboard, just as supposed two years ago:
