Bitcoin will always be the top dog in the crypto industry and ethereum will always be the second in the crypto ranking though ETH is having a great momentum this year because of their shanghai fork that contributed a price uptrend this month. In terms of strong adoption, no one can beat BTC no matter what.
Mate let us not assume that there is permanent in crypto , remember that price and coins will move no matter what depend on how people support this , what if time changed that people goes to other coins? I am not saying it is Ethereum but what I pointing here is that changes will come( though I still support bitcoin) .
Surpassing BTC is next to impossible since ETH is going POS. Tokens in POS are earned by stakers/validators and they earn the ETH almost with just nothing but biding time.
Mining BTC is the hard part because miners would have to pay more for their energy bills to earn them. And it means that these miners will not sell in loss that's the difference.
but at least chances are right?
