The Ethereum network is the most mature network enabling smart contracts, and it also has the most active development community. The other networks with smart contract development capabilities are either still in beta or in development.
Indeed. And even if the other networks claim that they have lower transaction times, they don't have the level of usage that Ethereum has.
Scalability developments in Ethereum are going well, it seems.
But do not exclude that Ethereum can move from the second place coinmarketcap. It is hard to imagine when a small part of the projects on Ethereum will start, then the network will fall exactly. Perhaps the appcoin has plans to switch to another blockchain in the future.
Agree. There is this risk. The governance in Ethereum sometime is a bit chaotic. This kind of governance is very similar to early days of Linux, but then the pressure was less than with Ethereum.
Today, no other blockchain has the critical mass of Ethereum but many of them have a stronger leadership, more business driven approaches and clear decision making processes.
