Good news for ETH nowadays as SEC claims it is not a security and Vitalik announced that two technology upgrades (Casper and Sharding) which were separate upgrades will be combined and the rollout will be activated together.
ETHEREUM is not only a coin, it is great platform as well and has a bright future.
It can reach the top as it is only matter of time when it will happen.
I will not doubt any of the facts that you are stating except that Ethereum will get to the top place. It will not happen, not because Ethereum is not good project. Ethereum is one of the greatest projects, but Bitcoin is just a lot more popular and more wanted.
