Why some people want the Ethereum to over come Bitcoin in the near future? Is it because they make profit from ETH or what?
Because Ethereum has potential future coins, and people want Ethereum to be kept more than BTC, as many investors hold many ETH today, so many people can buy 1 or more ETH coins because the price is still very cheap for us to buy from now, not many people are able to buy 1 btc because the price is very expensive.
