A few years ago, “the flippening” was a hot topic - every altcoin bull run brought new headlines claiming ETH (or some other chain-of-the-month) was about to overtake Bitcoin in market cap, utility, or narrative.
Fast forward to today: ETH/BTC pair is in a multi-year downtrend, alt narratives are fading, and Bitcoin dominance is back above 60%. The ecosystem feels quiet. No more hype, no more retail. Altcoins aren’t leading anymore — they’re trailing.
Was the "flippening" idea always a meme born from bull market euphoria? Or is there still a real possibility that some crypto asset could overtake BTC in the long run - either in market cap or relevance?
