There is no gainsaying about this, that Ethereum is truly the king of all altcoins.
Ever since XRP took over the 2nd position, i knew it was not going to last. The updates that were being announced were just taking profits.
Inasmuch as cryptocurrency and blockchain technology is concerned, decentralization will always take the lead, because that was the purpose of creating blockchain.
This is just the beginning. The Bakkt approval has not yet been lunched, other proposed milestones have not started and this is happening (eth on position 2).
What if the updates are eventually integrated, we might see ethereum at 0.05 BTC per ETH.
Yes, that can easily be. Because a lot of great events are planned for the first half of 2019 year that can become triggers for he whole crypto market. On the other hand speaking about ETH in particular we have to remember that at the moment its blockchain has a lot of disadvantages which if not solved can easily drown the coin forever. Because there are much more better blockchains at the moment which are real competitors to ETH.
