The blockchain and cryptocurrency industry is an industry that is constantly changing and evolving. So its hard to give you a binary answer inmy opinion. I honestly love both the projects.
However when I look at it from a larger perspective, I realize that the industry is rapidly changing and the top project maybe something we least expect. I see a lot of development happening in the Web3 ecosystem with respect to Polkadot. I see new projects like Concordium which are exploring new paradigms like Faas( Finality as a Service ) and are backed by years of Academic Research. DeFi is changing the way we know Finance.
If there is one thing we can learn from the industry, its that change is the only constant and BTC is King. It has always been.
Ofcourse Ethereum is very innovative, it is infact one of the most innovative projects out there, but BTC will continue to dominate unless Ethereum brings something so huge that it will lead mass adoption and will be seen a better store of value than BTC. Ethereum was never intended to be a store of value.
It's a weird one. I mean most of us are big bitcoin moonboys. That being said I cannot disregard the absolute utility Ethereum brings to the table. That has been made very clear with the recent surge in Defi and honestly the influence of Uniswap is a massive leap for the industry. Staking pools like yearn and
fiscus.fyi would never have been possible without it. So Ethereum has its place. Keep in mind in most places around the world the only way to enter crypto is only via btc and it will be for a long time to come.
