I'm starting to believe that Ethereum could eventually surpass Bitcoin as the top cryptocurrency, especially given its strong ecosystem and the recent reduction in gas fees(Is this a rumour).
This is always a hot topic even before during the first introduction of smart contracts by Ethereum blockchain and at some point ETH marketcap was close already to Bitcoin yet it never surpassed Bitcoin.
Right now, there’s already a lot of blockchain that shares to the marketcap of Ethereum including the side chains and other L2 project that dedicated to address Ethereum scalability issue. I doubt ETH will surpassed Bitcoin now that it has a lot of competitor blockchains while Bitcoin is still the king of Blockchain that is not using smart contracts.
