Will Cardano outperform Bitcoin in 2018? Its is a third generation coin that can a lot of things that BTC and ETH cannot. Why shouldn't this coin skyrocket in price once volatility dies down. Check out my blog post.

I also believe in the potential of this coin. It will surely be on top of the market this 2018. It is said to be the Bitcoin and Ethereum Killer because of the things that it can do which other coins cannot. It has very good technology and a very active developers. Will add more of it on my portfolio.

No, no chances. I believe in the ADA. It is a solid project, built by very capable people and with a clear roadmap. If you read this roadmap, you'll see that big changes and big projects will only be ready by the end of 2019, perhaps early 2020. By then it will be in the top 10. But it will not be one of the top three.

Of course, this got the potential to be one of the most popular cryptocurrency definitely a potential to be on top 10. but as to whether it can replace Bitcoin or Ethereum for that matter, I think the people behind the project have to work hard for more time before this can happen. Maybe in 10 years it can be able to clobbered down Bitcoin but by then we don't know if cryptocurrency will survive...it is finding it hard to flourish right now because banks refuse to work with this new industry. Well, as they always say, there is nothing impossible especially in the world of cryptocurrency...anything can go up and can go down as fast as lightning.

I will say one thing that a coin is suitable for going to the top alt, but to become the only one and unique it will be necessary for her to do something supernatural. So the years will show where the market will bring this coin with its potential.

Because the market still not stable. Cardano is a very nice coin and will be huge this year because of their upcoming project. I think this month their roadmap will be release. Fundametally they can't out performed Bitcoin but on the price on those two coins Bitcoin is still the King.

Cardano shows great potential comparing to many other coins. I just added some in my portfolio but market's current situation kills bull mood and basically my hopes are only for future.

I'd like ADA because team have excellent idea and all possibilities to get it. And now after such falling Ada price so close to dip. Buy and hold - for Ada it's best advice now

It is impossible in 2018 because already it will reach a top position in the market. But Bitcoin and Ethereum are more valuable than cardano so it is pump in the market. These three coins are decentralised cryptocurrency so how you should predict the potential of cryptocurrency. Everything should be decide in market capitalisation and project development but all are already developed in the market.

ADA has huge potential I foresee ADA going into top 3 and potentiall threaten to dethrone bitcoin!

What characteristic of Cardano with real use nowadays would you say could make people switch from eth or bitcoint to ADA?

Before it could reach eth it must participate at least few great icos or get such popularity like btc. Now I cant remember any ada icos or such trading pairs like btc.

The availability for ICOs in Cardano is a future feature that will be implemented. I think there will be a huge momentum when that happens.

Doubt it. At this point it's not what the coin can do. There are many many coins that are far better than bitcoin. Bitcoin has the team, the infrastructure and the name recognition to keep it on top for a long time.

people..!! what roadmap...would anybody have made a roadmap which would make sense now 10 years ago?

Once i had to travel 2 hours to get some simple information from a decent libarary.....none of the geniuses then, could imagine you could look things up and jirk off at the same time.
So what will ada be in a few years, impossible to predict.

Cardano will probably outperform Bitcoin in %, but it won't overtake BTC marketcap that is for certain. I am slowly adding more and more Cardano to my portfolio monthly and I can't wait to see this coin be the top.

After reading the roadmap and white paper, I can't believe I didn't hop on this coin as soon as possible.

It might overcome Ethereum but the real question is, will it overcome NEO?

Check out this comparison between NEO and Ethereum: https://youtu.be/RISEnGVoz8I

My bet is on NEO  :)

Two things: one, volatility isn't anywhere near ending. And two, Cardano has good roadmap and are almost achieving their next milestone, but just as @jvdp said, market capitalisation is very important. And I would add that bitcoin has the advantage of early starting and has quite the mileage already... for Cardano to catch-up in such a short time frame, more efforts needs to be put into it and thats like working round the clock for the next half decade before they can have the attention of the masses and not worry about price inflation, volatility and regulations. Because their 3rd Gen identity makes people look with so much curiosity and anticipation.

As of today,
BTC is 22,534 times greater than ADA in current price.
Price difference:
ADA:  $0.351517 USD
BTC: $7,921.23 USD


24hr Vol:
BTC is currently 12+ times the value of ADA in daily trading volume.
ADA: $734,804,000 USD
BTC: $9,478,720,000 USD


So in prospect, ADA looks great on paper and the dev team are working hard to ensure it's a reality, but practically now and through 2018... the speculation would be faulty because of the wide range of factors.

Lately the entire crypto includes cardano experience the same decline. I don`t see cardano growth which is significant in recent times and I dare say "Cardano is unlikely to outperform Bitcoin", except NEO (Ethereum China).

I do not think that Cardano can now become a competitor to bitcoin in the following 1-2 years. Even though this project is ahead of many popular coins by technology, it does not have people's trust yet.

as a general rule all the altcoins have the potential to outperform bitcoin in short term because they can easily get pumped and when they get pumped their pumps are going to be HUGE. for example you can easily expect a 5000% rise out of an altcoin with a simple pump, last year proved this to not only be possible but also be an easy thing to do.
Cardano is not an exception here. i kind of like the project itself but i don't have high hops as OP seems to have for this project.

I know alot of tokens will outperform Bitcoin this year, but not just sure about the project, I know the team has big figures in it, but just not sure what they aim to do, what is driving the price of BTC, Ethereum and recently NEO is because of ICO demand, if they can enter the race too, then it is possible

by outperform, do you mean in price or with respect to usage and mass adoption? Because either way for any altcoin to outdo bitcoin will have to scale up their operation by a light year... so to speak.

Yes maybe he point that one but for thinking deeply with it I can ask myself rather on how cardano do it? We all know that Majority of people holds BTC and not all people holds cardano so for this situation theirs no chance for this coin to outperform the bitcoins not unless if bitcoin will totally ban on some huge countries.

There are a lot of guys in the last weeks that ask for coins that will outperform Bitcoin in 2018. The answer is NO, because Bitcoin will always be the daddy of all coins for the next 5-10 years. Maybe there will come another technology that will be better than the bitcoin technology, but that will take some years!

I believe that most of the coin outperform bitcoin. Bitcoin is the genesis cryptocurrency and it can not be as good as other coins. However, people have trusted bitcoin so much and bitcoin needs to have a big value in the world in order for the government to accept other cryptocurrencies

I think I'm going to do some research on Cardano. The price is very reasonable for purchase. But I will not be hasty. And I can make a long term investment.

The project is strong. But so far, really almost nothing has been done. Therefore, no. As a result of speculation, the ADA may approach BTC. But in principle the project is still young.

I don’t think, that any coin at this time can outperform bitcoin.
May be in future, but I don’t think it will be Cardano, but who knows.
Anyway, Cardano is a good project, and develop very quickly.

Cardano could outperform bitcoin, but it might not outperform Bitcoin Cash or ETH.

Cardano is an interesting coin and its value continues to increase, but for 2018 cardano can not possibly outperform bitcoin. For the year 2018 bitcoin will remain at the forefront.

I don't think in 2018, but definitely in 2019. This is a fantastic new blockchain tech that will allow scalability, government compliance without sacrificing privacy or decentralization, and very sophisticated smart contracts. It will take time though. Just look at mainstream investors, you're lucky if they've heard of Ethereum. It will take at least another year before this name becomes more common.

CARDANO is longterm project, and they are not here to manipulate the market, look at their twitter and their public accounts. They have a potential to grow and not to be manipulated like Ripple.

outeperform nop, but this a verry strong buy for this years

in your dreams maybe,but in reality never and will never only speculation makes this coin popular but the truth is,this coin will never grow and remains low ranking coin forever.adding this to portfolio is a suicide.

In my opinion, this is a fairly promising coin, but it will not be able to get ahead of bitcoin in 2018. I believe more that ether can beat bitcoin this year.
