2) Ethereum is the best Smart contract creation platform holding major DAPP's in market
For me, so far this is the best use of Ethereum.
That's why Ethereum is still on the highest volume for smart contract cryptocurrency, some other cryptocurrency that has smart contract feature is base on Ethereum or just a copycat, just why I am also a believer of Ethereum.
Some quality altcoins there also using Ethereum, which Ethereum makes more popular and quality as well. It really built for a smart contract in the first place.
