That might be true. But I do not believe Ethereum will be able to hold their gains for long. Sooner or later the price has to go down simply because that is what markets do.
So always remind yourself not to get lost in the mania and try to stay objective. In a market like this, it is easy to think that the good days will never end.
I also agree. Bitcoin is the number one or not depends a lot on the market. The fate of bitcoin is unknown in the future. But now the bitcoin is on the rise and will it stay in the spotlight? Young people have now come to bitcoin as to a friend.
Like you said it will depend on how the market moves, the price or value of bitcoin on the current time with its fluctuations considered, and number of patronizer using bitcoins. There are many things to be considered just to maintain the standing on number one but being at the top is not absolute. Time will come some digital currency will takes the first place though it is a probability.
