When you're ethereum hodlers and your token can flip the top tokens and that means your capital will be also increasing a lot. This will be making your portfolios increased a lot. People are also interesting to see the the smartcontract platform to take the first spot and seeing how big impact that can be created by ethereum. This is the only good thing that can be got when ethereum was flipping bitcoin but I don't see any other reason other than it.
That being said that those ethereum hodlers will become the rich person as their money increased drastically.

Some people were feeling interesting to see that if smartcontract platform to take over bitcoin. They wanna see the new tech to replace the old tech but we can't deny that if bitcoin has better blockchain than ethereum. I have been seeing ethereum community was also saying about this. The possibility for ethereum to replace ethereum will always there but none know when that will be happening. I think that the chance was so small for ethereum to replace bitcoin. Bitcoin still remain the best asset with fixed supply instead of ethereum with infinite supply.
