I am pretty sure he means marketcap, and not the price. And people have predicted the "flppening" since eth was born, and before eth, people were predicting that with other alts that were fomoed at the time. And that flippening prediction made more sense during the ico bullrun as eth was actually close to do that.

But at the moment it's not even close. Bitcoin has escaped so much further since, and predicting the flip now does seem out of place. If anything, eth chart looks bad. Fundamentally eth is doing better then ever, and i would understand if people would adopt it, but even if it moons here, i would think it just repeats the pattern with new ath cut short by btc dropping in price.
