ETH has some major issues to resolve, if it can... scalability being the primary of both BTC and ETH.  The next is ETH  blockchain bloat in a little over 1 year it is already almost the same size as BTC if not even bigger, and BTC has been running since what 2009 or 8 years.  How big will ETH database be in 8 years from now.... if ETH has scalability issues already...  Huh

BTC is the store of wealth (gold) and I do not see ETH as a currency (silver) or for that matter any of the other 800+ altcoins that have been created.  Until Joe and Jan Public can use the altcoins/cryptocurrency directly from there leather wallets with plastic debit cards you will not see mass adoption by the general public.  Thus the altcoin currency (silver) is yet to be determined.

Yes, direct access to the currency wallet from a point of sale terminal debit card is in the wings... called RadixDLT (Distributed Ledger Technology). It will be the silver to the bitcoin gold.
