There has also been an announcement of polkadot recently. And you see, it's currently priced at 17$. In the last 7 days it has gone up by about 80%. And it is at on top 4 position. So give your comment about polkadot (dot token).
polkadot is certainly a better alternative to Ethereum buy it has a long way to go.
Ethereum is also working on many things and rolling out eth 2 that will remove many shortcomings from Ethereum.
I don't think polkadot will get wider acceptility than Ethereum.
