Nothing is impossible in crypto industry. I strongly believe in the potential and capabilities of etherium to beat bitcoin someday and become ranked 1 but that will happen after several years. Eth can value up to 10k usd only after beating btc.
Are you sure etherium can defeat bitcoin from the first stage? It might be yes but its too hard to do it in near time.
Nothing is impossible and its true. Etherium no 3 in price but number 2 in marketcap so its possible to beat bitcoin someday.
