Looking at the success of Ethereum in 2017, so many new ventures started their journey in order to compete Ethereum. Some took momentum as a matter of fact like Tron and Eos. Other names like Cardano and Zilliqa etc are also running in the race.

What do you think would Ethereum sustain this pressure and retain its leading spot?

How would the Proof of Stake, if implemented in time, work for Ethereum?

Would Ethereum solve their scalability issue?

Does Ethereum decentralization give it an edge over other centralized smart contract platforms?

I wish it were. I used to use wallets with ERC-20 tokens and participate in ICO projects that release their tokens on the ethereum platform. Therefore, I practically do not participate in the campaigns of the ICO bounty, where you do not need to have MyEtherWallet wallets.
Ethereum has all chances to be the first platform for smart contracts. For the time being, improvements are being made to this coin and two more stages of the next improvements are planned.

I guess that you are looking for somebody with a crystal ball. Bad luck..

I'll tell some bad things that can happen. It doesn't necessarily mean they will happen though...

PoS can bring the demise to a coin. Politically I don't think that's a great idea. I think that the best days of Ethereum were when "everybody" was mining it.
In the past there were voices telling that the code quality in Ethereum is bad. I don't expect it to have became better, but changing it to PoS may make it worse. Bad code leads to bugs. Bugs can lead to exploits...

New coins come and go. It's hard to beat the leader. Not impossible, but really hard. Until now Ethereum managed to make steps forward at pretty good times, helping it stay first. But a bad move can remove all the advantage.

Ethereum will have to go into a phase where big changes are more carefully planned and thought well if they are indeed necessary. Else, sooner or later they may make a fatal mistake.

Honestly i do not see any serious threat or competitor for Eth smart contracts and tokenization platform yet im not just saying this because im an eth supporter but facts and figures are telling us this you can check yourself and vast majority of projects with tokens are still using erc 20 model even all the new icos are using eth network for their tokens with rare exceptions so i think eth is strongly holding its place and massive growth is expected in eth till 2020.

yes it me possible to be the best investment in the future but there is always not predictable in the future so the cryptocurrency market is always about what is happening today and don't expect a lot in the future it will not give you the expectation in most of the time so my opinion is do what you want today.

Most crypto related new project owners trust ethereum and it also gain the highest community support in terms of smart contract business. With this it will definitely sustain the pressure from opposite smart contract project and it will continue to lead.


The proof of stake it said to be implemented in the mid of this year through Casper which was purpose by the ethereum team to scale their network.


The team are planning an outstanding upgrade which seems to be the best out there. I mean Constantinople hard fork>Plasma>Casper>Sharding>Serenity (aka Ethereum 2.0)>Ethereum 3.0(which could take billion of transactions).

Yes, the decentralized in nature of ethereum was one of the reason why it gain much community support than other smart contract platform.

In my opinion, It would be always the number one smart-contract platform IF Vitalik Buterin does something big and doesn't let others surpass Ethereum. Recently, people are arguing about a threat probability from Binance Coin (BNB) to Ethereum (ETH) as it has its own blockchain now. BNB is powerful coin which become native coin of Binance Exchange, we all know Binance is the most favorite exchange for most people. BNB could easily replace Ethereum as number one of smart-contract platform as now people are looking to use IEO instead of normal tokensale. By using BNB chain and Binance Launchpad to build a project will be very profitable either for project's owner or investors as the token will be automatically listed on biggest exchange.

Ethereum recently has some problems, personally I'm concerning about the total supply limit of Ethereum which is not fixed until today but Casper is one of great plan for Ethereum. Unfortunately, Casper is also have no certainty about when it will be implemented. I do believe that Vitalik is on doubts right now but he's a smart guy, so just wait what future he's looking for.

Yes ethereuem decentralization give it an edge above the centralized operational smart contract on the blockchain, ETH have been the bedrock of all this other platform that sims to threatened it existence today and even at that ethereuem have sustained it position despite they activities have affected it market greatly but ETH is gradually gaining it ground to becoming the king of all the altcoin.

I think that your reason Ethereum has become a reference in this area and to beat it, it takes a lot of time, and I think Ethereum will be the leader of the smart-contract platform

They have big plans. Perhaps they are preparing something more than POS. I think that if developers implement smart contracts not only in ICO, then ethereum will be practically unattainable for competitors, no matter how bad the code is or something else.

No one can predicted the absolutely correct result of the crypto market but the case of ethereum is different buddy because they have already stated their plans through their road map when they talked about it last year. However, almost other smart contract provider platform mentioned by the OP have or will use the exact protocol planned by ethereum and for ethereum to have already gain the trust of project owners. Ethereum will always be the best smart contract provider.

I thought Ethereum won't live this much, but it is still hanging on. Who knows, maybe it will retain the no. 1 spot for smart contract platforms in the next couple of years.


It might work, but much depends how they do it. I don't think they have a clear idea how PoS would work without a centralization.

Ethereum is not overly decentralized, even now with PoW. PoS would make things worse in this respect.

whether or not ethereum will be the number one smart contract platform in a few years' time is difficult to predict. the competition keeps getting bigger and it will not be easy to stay number one. vitalik buterin next years and decisions will determine how ethereum continues.

I don't think that ETH's dev should be pressured, AFAIK he likes competition like this to make the community better. TRON had launched their mainnet while Binance made their own chain.

Really can't talk about the PoS change because it has been discussed many times and the progress isn't so quick. The market changes so fast and it is surprising too many people with each of the altcoins developers move. If I'll think that it won't sustain itself but at least it will remain to be a top coin.

Ethereum will still be a strong player but I don't think it will keep No 1 position. Many coins will switch to their blockchain and there are a few strong competitors.

I think will still be number 1 on 2020 on smart contract use, regarding PoS i think is better to still have the PoW because maybe when full PoS will be for ETH will can make the price goes down.

I wish that ETH developers make a good job with the updates and solve the scaling issue and that POS will be a success story.
ETH chances are pretty good to remain the leading platform  in the coming years.

Ethereum will always remain the number one smart contract platform because its the father and king of smart contract platforms. Most new smart contract crypto platforms are all built on the Ethereum Blockchain platform, making these platforms the derivatives of the Ethereum platform. 

It still seems to be. But no one can say in the future, maybe there will be a more perfect platform to replace ETH in the future. The future is unclear, but ETH technology is constantly evolving.

They are more stabilized and they have a good line up of developers to address all the issue about their smart contract and I don't think they will neglect their position and give it to competitors and besides, those tokens that are now hosted in ERC 20, they are to many of them will not just shift to other algos, just like that, so I still consider the second most popular coin in the market come 2020 onwards.

Actually, it is an undeniable fact that there are many serious competitors in the market against the Ethereum platform. However, I think it is too early for these competitors to replace Ethereum, on the market. Because meanwhile, the developers of Ethereum continue their works.

definitely not.
ethereum has too many issues to be able to remain on top. from the bugs in the platform to the exploits in their smart contracts, the problems are too serious and deep to change. not to mention the centralization of it and the horrible scaling issues it has.
ethereum is like the token that paved the way for smart contract platforms to become popular and at the same time the owners made millions.

I think Ethereum is still the number one platform in 2020 for smart contract platforms, the closest rival in the smart contract platform is Stellar, now many projects are starting to use the Stellar platform as their smart contract platform,

They can stay as they are and still have a good chance to stay ahead of competition. If they have realistic big plans, even better.
I didn't say that good things cannot happen. What I did mean was to not underestimate the chances to fall behind on very long term. They are not that big right now, but they're there.

considering the fact that over the course of last two years a lot of better smart contract platforms have been created which solved a lot of the problems that ethereum as a platform and as a token has, i have to say i don't see that much of a future for this platform anymore.
not to mention that ethereum has lost the market to these platforms as soon as the scam ICOs (which were the only reason why it was number 1) started dying.
although you shouldn't underestimate the centralization power though...

Ethereum would be the best smart contract creation platform for sure after that I think you forgot to mention NEO it is one of the best POS based smart contract platform.

I am sure that Ethereum will remain in the first place among its competitors for several more years. Since its competitors are not so attractive and their teams are weaker at the moment.

I think it also that Ethereum will still remain number one. With the users who truly support the system and the movement in the market I think their is more to offer in the future.

Thank you for your opinion. In fact, it is impossible to know exactly what will happen next with Ethereum. However, I hope that some problems will be solved and ETH will keep the leading position.

It is not impossible that other platform will pursue ethereum as the number one smart contract platform in the future. But each developer of the platform such as EOS, Cardano, or Tron strives and continues to develop to meet the increasingly stringent market needs and solve the current issues on the blockchain.
Literally in blockchain and crypto space, ethereum still the main option as its decentralized with huge number of community around the world.

No one can confirm it which one will be. All of your mentioned coin has active developer and they are working to develop their platform. Maybe someone else is coming up with the best, who knows. However, if ETH implement PoS, their scalability will be quite solved in my opinion.

My opinion Ethereum still ranked 1 in the smart contract platform until 2020 in fact we have to be realistic that some good project growing day by day might be they will become competitors, who knows.

I see Ethereum above all others in 2020, Ethereum has a very large network that is capable of changing the crypto community and the world entirely.

Nobody can deny Ethereum is a pace setter in the smart contract space and has done well for the space but what I see in future is a future without Ethereum, this project will be neglected when better platforms comes on board, so many promising projects in the space now and will likely out perform Ethereum in few years

Still Ethereum will be at the forefront with its smart contract even though there are many rivals with other platforms. I am sure Ethereum will make a surprise in 2020 with a new scheme.

I don't think ethereum is the number 1 smart contract even as we speak, because there have been many project coming up with better platforms and algorithm to solve the issue of scalability, eos is one of that platform that even offer more features than ethereum and currently has more dapps created on it's blockchain than the ethereum blockchain, though if eth can solve the issue of scalability on the blockchain, then investors will look back to it.

although tron ​​and eos are good but for me ethereum will still be number one of the many smart contracts. and I'm sure smart ETH contracts will still exist and continue to be used by the developers

I still root for ethereum because of its dedicated team commited to research and development. Their efforts will ensure they remain abreast with recent innovations or development in technology. They they will still be ahead

Ethereum has a great lead but it has its limitations and if takes to long time to send coins on the Ethereum blockchain, then new projects will move to faster and also cheaper blockchains.
I think its only a matter of time before Ethereum will lose its number one spot for smart contracts.

Ethereum is still the leading crypto of choice with companies such as google and some major venture capitalists plus the advantage it has as the first mover in terms of smart contracts.I think it will still retain it first position. Other competitors are not without challenge s

The Ethereum platform is currently the most used platform by most smart contract platforms in the crypto ecosystem. Its specifically dedicated to be a blockchain platform that will provide smart contract protocols that can be easily added to other crypto platforms which will help eliminate third party involvement in the transaction of goods and services by users on their platform. In terms of Smart contract platforms, Ethereum is the best and the king.

yes you're right, almost all projects that use erc20 are failed projects. but that doesn't mean making ethereum can't survive. if ethereum can solve a fundamental problem, maybe they have a chance in the future. actually there are many options to make ethereum back as before, POS and determine the total supply might be one way that can be done. but unfortunately this is only speculation.

more projects are being built on and supported for the Ethereum blockchain. also looks to be the most decentralized out of all the other platforms

So far. I don't see any coin that threatened Ethereum's position is the number one smart contract in the crypto community, so many ICO and companies are still using their smart contract, they are still the best and will retain their position comes 2020

I think ethereum remain the number one smart contract platform until in the future because it has strong blockchain technology and continue evolving and develop in the future, most of the ICOs are they trusted ethereum smart contract platform.

I don't really like the way you said, the success of ethereum because in this time, the product that the smartcontract has just provided us isn't really helped allot. More and more project that is considerably scam are just devastating the market, reliability of cryptocurrency has been decreased through that. Maybe we could prefer EOS soon.

I do not see any problems for ethereum, which would be a serious obstacle to his leadership in the use of smart contracts. While it is a common problem for ICO projects to lose their popularity. Of course, this affects the ethereum, but only indirectly, since it does not depend on this coin. I think that further ethereum will retain its position as the best platform for conducting ICO. However, other coins have already been in this competition for ethereum.

Yes I think Ethereum will still retain its position as the most popular smart contracts platform beyond 2020 and my reason for this is because the team is super active and they continue working on the platform which will make it be always flexible to any new changes.

Ethereum is facing increased competition from many new platforms that are fast gaining market share notably EOS and Tron being the foremost however, it still has the largest development team globally and is aiming to solve it's scalability issues within the coming year so it's not likely to lose its lead anytime soon

Even now it is against lot many competitors. As the market keeps widening the competence between the leading platforms go to the peak. In this scenario ethereum stands high, and same will continue by 2020. As of now eos is emerging to make a big change in the market with its large number of dApps that are under development. With all good factors we can see a big year for Cryptocurrency.

No one can give answer to this question of yours, only the ETH team can answer this but my believe is Ethereum is a very capable altcoin and the Dev knows what's best for the coin ,if POS got implemented on ETH chain I don't know what the outcome will be but lets put our trust on the teams

There has been lots of pressure and Ethereum dev's are up to the challenge.


They have addressed the scalability issues so I don't think that is the problem right now. And it seems almost all the projects in the pipeline is based on Ethereum so I would assume that they will continue to dominate in the next 5 years or so.

I am agree, perhaps ethereum have good technology but i think right now many ethereum competitor like EOS or Tron. EOS become new favorite for many investor and i think Tron have good marketing team. Its hard to choose but i think we can divide our investment in several coin like ethereum, eos, trx to reducing risk from price fluctuation

I think that yes, because now you can see how still most a lot of companies choose Ethereum as a platform to create their tokens and especially the latest update Constantinople attracted many companies and now I think that the demand for Ethereum technologies will be excellent.

First mover advantage is big I agree but it also had a really bad reputation for being a pumped token and then the ICO scam platform that allowed everyone to just scam investors. Not that it was Ethereum's fault but people will see it that way. I think their chances will be bright though with the new staking protocols and the insistence to continued development.

After BNB coin change from ERC-20 to their own native blockchain, many token change to BNB blockchain. Ethereum could be favorites investment but i think many new competitors like EOS, BNB, or NEO.

No one dares see the future, moreover we keep seeing newer projects everyday in crypto world there is no guarantee that ethereum will remain at its present position by 2020 ,this is why I feel sorry for those thinking that new coins and tokens are useless

I am not sure, have you already tried some Dapps based on Ethereum? It is so slow and transaction fees are too high. That´s why many Dapps migrated to another faster solutions.

I voted for etherium and I know they are still number one and will remain here for a very long time.  I do not see any of these listed coins to be a strong competitor much more overtaking etherium. The only one that may pose a big threat is Bnb but that it is if they become successful in hosting a lot of blockchain contracts. However people would want to stick to what they already know that has worked. Etherium is popular in the game and have made huge success in hosting projects on their platform

to maintain the position seems to be quite difficult now, but ethereum can certainly do it

POS is indeed very attractive to investors. but I see ethereum still haven't decided whether to use this consensus or not. if indeed ethereum is serious about using POS, maybe there will be a big change in the market. many people will hold ethereum in large quantities. and this can trigger a big pump. but if someday there is an ethereum dump that will experience the most severe fall, because there will be many people who will sell ethereum.

for now I'm still not sure.

not really, there are actually many similar platforms that are better than ethereum. but ethereum has a royal community so it looks better.

in my opinion, Ethereum will remain in demand by entrepreneurs and investors as well because the technology from Ethereum is clearly good. I believe that if ETH developers can maintain or increase their security quality, of course in the future ETH will be difficult to compete with.

I don't know about the distant future. But if you ask me about the near future (2020-21), then I would say with a certain degree of certainity that ETH will remain as the no.1 smart-contract platform. The developers are still working hard to increase the efficiency of the platform and the competitors such as ADA and EOS are lagging miles behind ETH.

I think for now, they will remain on the top till we have any other competitor which I dint see for now except Binance that is planning on their own blockchain and that is the only threat, what I see Binance doing is to see the loop holes in Ethereum and use it to form the base of their own development, and I am sure they will make their own operating system far cheaper than that of ethereum.

Most ICO that are building their projects on ETH smart contracts is just because they cannot own their own blockchain yet and since ETH is the cheapest now, they use it pending the time they are fully settle to make theirs and Binance might also explore this angle of cost to overtake them.

Voted for ETH because while he is the leader and, I hope, he will keep the first position. Decentralization is an advantage of its network. Although soon probably network Binance will compete with Ethereum .

In the foreseeable future, it is possible that
Ethereum will be number one among smart contracts.

Right now, we can see that eth is better than other. Others have also made progress in this regard, but looks eth has gained more reliance. When the price was bad, there was a tendency towards the others, but others could not keep for a long time.

In my opinion,  it would be hard for any other smart contract offering project to overthrow ethereum,not just because it's the first of its kind but also because ethereum seamless integration with exchange.. Majority of the smart contract and tokenization platforma are yet to overcome that hordle. Take for example Neo irregardless of the hype that surrounded the project it's failed in terms of integration.

ETH to me seem to just grow stronger everyday and if there is no ETH in your portfolio then better check the list again because to me is one of the most important currency in the whole crypto Just check the line of tokens hosted on ETH blockchain and you will get the whole point am trying to make

Ethereum could've been the best platform but unfortunately about 90% of all the projects that were built on the blockchain failed and as such it's affected Ethereum itself badly. Now, Ethereum can't even keep up with Bitcoin's price chart anymore. It's behaving as a normal altcoin though it wasn't doing so before. Buh well, you can't emphatically predict the future of any crypto coin/ platform but personally, i don't think Ethereum's future is all that secure. It shall be threatened real hard.

Projects failed are very normal. It is same as shitty projects (altcoins) created every day mostly to scam investors and fail. Choosing which ones to invest is responsibility and decision of each investor, so they should not blame on Ethereum network, anything else, or anyone else for their wrong decisions. Greediness most likely leads them to wrong decisions, they have to accept their faults.

I dont think failed project affecting ethereum because investor must be know the different. I think the ethereum price drop because market condition a several months ago. But at this moment, i think ethereum still popular coin with more competitors. Time will tell us who survive and have great achievement

a lot of project created on ethereum blockchain failed, but thats not the fault of ethereum foundations my friend
a failed project is because the project didn't have a good team, in marketing, development and others
so why a lot of project failed is because the project itself,
maybe ethereum price will affected, but i'm sure ethereum will always be number 1 smart-contract platform now and in the future

Ethereum will certainly retain its leading position.
Comparing it with the EOS is not entirely correct since the EOS solves a slightly wider problem than Ethereum.
Cardano and Tron are still only at the beginning of their development, and will not be able to compete with Ethereum in the next few years.

Yes I agree! Ethereum will remain the number 1 platform in the intermediate future. Additionally, I believe start up projects are somewhat hesitant to choose other platforms other than Ethereum for the reason that platform usage and adoption on this alternative smart-contract competitors such as EOS, TRON, etc are still low whereas Ethereum enjoys the confidence of most projects to launch their project in its ecosystem. But I must say that these alternative platforms have their own promising features and merits worthy to be considered as Ethereum's competitors.

"best" is the wrong word you chose in your poll because ethereum is the worst smart contract platform for many reasons including being centralized and not being able to handle medium number of transactions per second. but it will remain the number one on coinmarketcap because it is ranking based on market cap and that only depends on supply and since ETH has a huge supply most of which premined, it will remain on top.
also with all the advertisement and the hype that scammers want they will always chose that to scam people with their smart contract ICOs. but it won't make the platform itself any better though!

With the end of Q1 of 2019, we could surely say Ethereum will rule for this year and coming as most of the so called competitor of Ethereum has failed to get any attention of smart contract than Ethereum. Though they might have some growth but it's not as strong as Ethereum.
Ethereum smart contract is a widely covered sector, filled up with thousands of experts and documentations while others are still struggling to get things done.

For its simplicity and easy access , Ethereum smart Contract is still the best to use and will remain top in the smart contract platform. Others don’t seem to have the simplicity and easy usage which makes it to be more preferred.

for me its simple and the answer is yes
everybody know bitcoin right, and i'm sure Bitcoin will always be number 1 cryptocurrency in this world, because bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency right ?
so, ethereum will always be number 1 crypto with smart contracts, because ethereum is the first platform with smart contracts my friend

I am not sure about that one,  because Binance has created its own blockchain and I think there would be a lot of tokens in the future, that are going to built their smart contracts on the Binance Chain to get the advantages of it.

Well I would say its unpredictable in cryptocurrency for ethereum to remain the number one smart contract platform in 2020 and the coming years because there are many coins in the system right now which have a great potential so anything can happen.

Of course ethereum remain number 1 smart contract platform in 2020 and onward because it have strong blockchain technology that most of the project are using ethereum platform, ethereum is keeping develop and continue to be more popular here in cryptocurrency.

please lets trace history of fact a bit, It’s worth noting that bitcoin was the first to support basic smart contracts in the sense that the network can transfer value from one person to another, but it was limited to currency use case, hence ethereum replaces bitcoin’s more restrictive language  and replaces it with a language that allows developers to write their own programs,  meaning that it supports a broader set of computational instructions. now the question is, in respect of the above are the coins you mention of developing their system to better than ETH?

I also do not see them dropping this title anytime soon, there are lots of projects that have come after them and tried to copy their system directly but they have still not been able to make them less functional.

Binance launching of their own blockchain is what I thought would be of threat to ethereum before, but I can see that such threat has already been eliminated and majority of users would prefer to build their project on ether smart contract that people are already used to, and the issue of wallet, they cannot change their contract and start asking people to transfer their coins from ether to theirs again.

Nothing will say what's happened next. But I think all of us are hopping espcially to those investors are holding and still investing in eth . If we look of number and continues number of investment we will predict that it is possible that when 2020 came eth is remain on top as a number 1. Just hold and give your trust it is possible.

i think that in 2020 ethereum will still be the number 1 smart-contract platform, but no one can really predict if this will really happen, i also not.
so far, it does not look like eos, tron, cardano or even waves are capable of doing so, but a lot can change in a year.

There is still all possibility that Ethereum would remain the number 1 smart-contract platform in 2020 and beyond that because other named platform are not versatile as the Ethereum network.

Ethereum, despite its many competitors, looks solid against their background and covers about half of the entire segment. I think that the success of TRON or EOS, only spur the Ethereum team and it is in favor of the development of both the platform and the blockchain as a whole.

Ethereum is still number one altcoin and smart contract and I still have doubts that any other coin can replace it. However, I am closely looking into Binance chain and believe that they have a potential to overcome ETH in the future.

Right. It's been many years already and none beat Ethereum so far. There are many projects that aimed for adoption but still not even close to Ethereum. Binance coin is a good choice to possibly beat Ethereum because they have Binance exchange itself that is the biggest trading platform in crypto. They have the funds and the influence too.

In this past year I think ETH is number one and no one will kick down ETH from first place. I am so sure that  ETH will be the first place until 2020. ETH is completely trustworthy in the market. So it will not be an easy job to defeat ETH.

Ethereum is leading as a smart contract platform even though new platform are developed that has better feature like the EOS platform. The developers of Ethereum will  not just fold their arms and see a coin come from behind to over take it.

Ethereum is still the best platform of smart contracts so far. And i think no one will defeat ethereum until many years later or at least couple years later. Seems like ethereum will keep its position for a long time, i think.

Main competitors for the right to be called the main blockchain platform of the future TRON, EOS and Ethereum. And yet Ethereum remains the leader in this trio, many call the other two altcoins “ethereal killers.” In addition to TRON and Eos, there are many other platforms that have functionality similar to Ethereum — cardano, Stellar, NEO, and others. Each of these networks has the potential to become the main infrastructure for running Dapps and smart contracts.Making a choice between these projects is quite difficult. Each of them has its pros and cons.

I would like to see more development of smart-contracts on other platforms.
But Ethereum will remain the number 1 smart-contract platform for a long time. Other platforms development are very fast, but it depends on the developers. Developers won't change platform so easily. ICO are still preferable on the Ethereum blockchain.

I heard that tron is now the leading dapp provider in the market today  . the second one must be eth and followed by eos , these three are now in a tough competition but i believe that die hard fans will stick on eth because eth is the only pioneer coin that first to introduce smart contracts in the public  . eth do also have the highest value among the three .

In my opinion, ETH remains the number one token, as compared to other tokens for which you are talking is not in place, of course, competing projects also provide a suitable product, but I think that ETH is many times better because most tokens are still based on it basis.

I think this question should be asked Vitalik Buterin. ;).Any project moves according to a roadmap..I hope this link you will find all the answers to your questions.https://www.ethereum.org/learn/ (https://www.ethereum.org/learn/)

for now we know that the platform supported by ethereum has worked well and can be evaluated as an important part of every ico project. so as long as this platform is widely used or trusted by every developer, it will always be a smart platform in the future.

Yes. I still believe in ETH in the following years. Basically, they have a team that works too professionally and excellently. Besides, their strategies are great and they are intending to expand and cooperate with many new businesses around the world.
In the future, ETH will still get market share largely in cryptocurrency, although their strong rival is EOS.

Ethereum is still likely going to be the top smart contract platform, because of its market cap and how quick and cheap it's to use combined with its popularity. Proof-Of-Stakes is designed to enrich the rich, and it gives more money to the people that have the most coins, unlike Proof-Of-Power (pow) that ensures a fair distribution of reward to a high-class technology. Although POW uses more energy, it's fairer.

For now, I don’t think any investor has any reason yet to distrust Ethereum because amidst all the very strong competition that is coming from Binance, NEO and EOS, and if these projects has been in existence for a while now with Ethereum in the market and some virtually doing the same thing as Ethereum, and yet investors are still fully with them, then I don’t see anything that will ever shake Ethereum again.

And I am glad they are also coming up with different strategies too that will keep them in the loop, so I believe too that nothing for now can bring Ethereum down and I still see them retaining this value come 10 years’ time.
