Is ethereum going to be next bitcoin?
I think this can happen to many people who say it but for now I think it hasn't happened yet but one day it could. the reason ETH has a large community has been trusted by several large projects.
we cannot say that ETH is the future, because currently the price of ETH falls far enough. Moreover, rivals such as EOS, UTNP, WAVES, and many more, are doing pretty good developments. well, but so far, ETH is still better.
