The last few days were very positive for Ethereum (ETH) and price increased by almost 60%. That's a big sign for ETH to have a claim for taking back the second position on coinmarketcap. XRP overtook ETH a few weeks ago and this fast reaction of ETH would be a positive sign for the entire crypto community. It was always a questionable move that XRP could overtake ETH and the recent price trend would back the importance of ETH as second crypto behind ETH.
For XRP, being very overvalued, this can result in another problem and damage of trust. In opposite, ETH was very undervalued based on it's use-case and offers an opportunity to buy some cheap ETH.
What's your opinion on this issue? Will ETH surpass XRP and stay in second place?
Long Term I think XRP will remain ahead of ETH, be that in no 2 spot or lower. Short term ETH could easily pass it with some point. The main reason I think XRP will remain higher is that it has real world adoption, even if the currency is a long way from being a true cryptocurrency.
