Yes, the price of ETH's marketcap will go over that of bitcoins very soon(possibly even today or this week).
The price has been surging and for a good reason. ETH has an upgrade in their code coming out within the next few weeks. The price is going up now because people are pricing in the expectation of ETH releasing their new version soon.
When the new version is released it will likely go even higher. There is also another version upgrade to be released sometime in 2018. Their roadmap is clear and more precise, vs bitcoin who has a bunch of Jihan Wu drama.
Do you understand that at the moment there is only hype thats being made it is impossible for ETH to overcome BTC within a week or today (LOL)?
It might be possible but again in the future but for me BTC is BTC with a caped coins... People just want pure profit and as always many people including myself we missed the "bitcoin" train so some people tend to feel that BTC is to expensive and tend to search for alternatives you hear all great stuff about ETH you see the price is rising with speed and you rush in. I see that this bubble will pop in one time and it won't end up well. Just look how the ETH went straight up a correction should occur from my point of view. W
When
BTC dumped hard ETH went down as well, isn't this telling you something? That no matter if ETH has a exchanges for fiat it is depended on bitcoin as most of the trading volume comes from bitcoin.
I don't say that ETH might not surpass BTC but I don't see it happening with a week. I don't have anything against ETH.
