The question for me remains the following. Will the etherium outstrip bitcoin in terms of capitalization and price growth in the near future?
Hard to tell. Most people that are not so into Cryptos only know Bitcoin and nothing else. So i think bitcoin will stay number 1 at least a few more years.
Two days ago ETH already was overtaken by Ripple for a few hours.
The main thing is ease of use. No matter how strange that bitcoin sounded, it is the more people use. So you can not overtake by capitalization. At the ethereum, the problem is that many projects are immediately sold after collection.
