Will Ethereum be able to do it?

Dude here is the Bitcoin section!
Haven't you read that?
Shill and discuss your altcoins somewhere else, but not here!
No other coin will be able to catch up with Bitcoin!
Were HTTP or TCP/IP the best protocols back in the days? No!
But they were the first! Therefore first mover advantage, network effect play a very significant role here.
It's the same with Bitcoin. Most of these will disappear over the next couple of years. And with sidechains, drivechains, Lightning network, cross chain atomic swaps most of the features of altcoins can esily be implemented and used for Bitcoin, with messing up the base protocol!
Altcoins were and mostly testnets for Bitcoin in terms of the technological perspective! And from financial perspective they exist to make Bitcoin holders more Bitcoin! Simple is that.
The sooner you realize that, the better!

If the ethereum shills sent all their bots to code rather than shill ether would be #1, but sadly ethereum is 90% marketing, 5 % yellow'piss'white paper, and 5% code, and thats the problem,

BTC didn't come #1 from marketing or bullshit, they were first, but mainly cuz 100's of guys worked their ass off for free long before anyone had any notion of getting rich.

Problem folks is when a person works for riches, his heart is never in the game, good code comes from the heart not the greedy moron.

The next BTC must be the same, it must come from Dev's on github that are serious about teamwork and resolving what ails bitcoin, with no pre-mining, and may the best software win.
