Do you believe ATOM can become a top 3 coin?
I think that this coin can become the top3 ecosystem in the  cryptocurrencyк world. Do you think this is possible? Now there are very few competitors for ATOM?I think that's alt it is the best  ever.
ATOM to the top!

We can't come to the conclusion whether it'll come to the top three or not with the growth it has been experiencing. From my understanding about the market atom has got potential, but I don't find this to be competitor to the ethereum. I request Op to give some strong reason that gives the thinking that Cosmos is an ethereum killer.

Every coin can be at top 3.

This is possible although I don't hold ATOM but every coin that has the potential can be at its best rank even top 3. How it can be an Ethereum killer if you are just aiming for top 3 which belongs currently to XRP?

I don't think so, i remember when so many new smartcontract platforms like ZIL, TRON and many more have been created and so many people have over speculated about that.
Stop it and atop will not become the etheruem killers, it can't even surpass binance platform.

I do not think so. I have been in cryptocurrency for two years and I have seen a lot. Many killers of "ETH and BTC" themselves have long been in the grave   ;D
It is not enough just to be a good coin, coin need to get recognition from the community!  ;)

The best ever altcoin is ETH, its already a history now if Atom replace the top altcoins then Atom will be the new best altcoin but I don’t see any reason for ETH to go below on the top 3 position. I see the potential of Atom and it actually pumping and dumping as well, there might be the chance for sure. It can be possible to replace ETH, but we don’t have the assurance and we know that the future is still unpredictable.

Yes. We have seen many Ethereum killers. For example, Neo. This ecosystem could compete with Ethereum, but this has not happened yet. Perhaps Cosmos is able to do it. Perhaps you think that Ethereum is unbeatable?

No I don’t think so, I have seen so many projects in the past that have a better system to ATOM, and yet they have not been able to take over Ethereum position, I don’t see any Ethereum killer for now, they still have the hype and whenever you think this coin can beat any system, it should be probably coins still within that top 20.

They have their own solid development and they will continue to retain their present position, but I really don’t see any product other than the one they have now that could take Ethereum off its current seat,. The only coin that I know can shake some of these top altcoins which is in the making is LIBRA coin, and until it’s release before I get the full concept of it for me to know if it has the ability to affect top coins like Ethereum and co.

Cosmos is a good project. Its technology Binance exchange has been applied to develop the latest features of Binance exchange. However, I still do not believe that Cosmos can replace ETH. Because ETH is a coin with high trust of the community and a good team. ETH is developing their project in a very good way.

this coin stand at the TOP 20 crypto in coinmarketcap list now
thats really big sign if this Atom is a kind of a good coins
but to kill the ethereum, thats sounds very impossible for me, i believe ethereum will be the best altcoins my friend

Your thread is kind of confusing. You use cosmos in the subject and used different name entirely on  your post.  Are both (cosmos and atom) thesame thing?
Would you mind sharing a link where we can read more about the project. Need to know why you think it is an ethereum killer.

Every day I read such posts, where people arguing if some altcoin is able to replace ETH and the answer is no. There will be no such a coin that would be able to compete with top 3 altcoins, definitely not in the upcoming five years.

Cosmos is just another alternative to Ethereum same thing as EOS, Tron, Cardano and other blockchain platform. You can't dethrone Ethereum as it like Ethereum would dethrone BTC which is not possible now. In terms of use case and having huge community and developer's Ethereum will always be the preferred of startup projects.

Its possible because cosmos is awesome, its so fast to sending. I like the tech behind cosmos, but like EOS, Tron, ONT, NEO, and ETH, cosmos is some way similar with these coin, but it will need so many years for eos to kick out ETH, ETH is much older than Cosmos, and also people is already know about eth because last ico booming

What if at the long run it didn't?
The truth is, comparing most coins to either BTC or ETH doesn't always work; most projects have evolved stating their aim of beating Ethereum yet they are no where to be found. Nevertheless, ATOM really have good potential, the team really knows what they want and thus will surly add value to this space but asking if it will beat ETH I what I find no answer to. It will be hard for any coin to beat ETH on the long run.

ATOM is one of my best picks right now for altcoins, but saying it's ethereum-killer sounds more like gross exaggeration to me. We keep hearing Ethereum-killers and over time we discover everything was based on hype. Same way they said ADA is Ethereum killer. I'm holding ATOM for long term anyway, the project development is great.

Ada hasn’t even completed its Shelley. No smart contract nothing at the moment. Though I find it sexy, I feel that it has some way to go

I dont think so. If talking about 10top coinmarketcap it will need strong enough to beat each other. You know ETH already struggle since long time ago and Ethereum already make good implementation. Personally i never put COSMOS as my long term investment.

I don't even believe it and never. I don't even think if that will be possible to be reached by ATOM. So many times i have experienced a lot of newcomers are promoting new coin to become the next ethereum killer or something that useless for me and then it has become the shitcoin forever and you can believe in yourself but that will never happen. qtum has made selfproclaimed to be the ether killer but it can't

This is funny as this is absurd! If you want that people here will take your idea seriously, do it with sense. Do not just write words that have no meaning at all. Otherwise, you only look as a desperate shill to most of us. I know Cosmos (ATOM) is rising, at least in terms of market cap, and it has earned the high spots. Now, give us the technology that makes Cosmos the Ethereum killer. Make an informed comparison that will open the eyes of many and get convinced that indeed Cosmos is going to kill Ethereum. The problem is that there have already been so many so-called Ethereum killers. Only to find out later on that they are the killer of themselves for not even releasing new and highly innovative products. Let us see in a year or two from now. Note that Ethereum has been up there for several years.

This is still a new coin while ETH has been here for many years, in short this coin is not tested yet, if it has started in 2018, I wonder if it's still holding it's current price now.

There's a big hype with ATOM and the price is going down as I can see in the market. This is not a real steel that Atom won the heart of the crowd against Zues, and we know ETH still the king of all altcoins because even bnb and xrp can't beat that one. I hold more ETH, and its going to be more worth it soon.

Atom has currently a huge potential to develop and become a top 10 coin at least.

However, we don't have to forget that new projects come on market every day, so if the team does not respect the milestones feom Whitepaper,  there is the risk the the hype to decrease and then project to be thrown into anonymity.

what about BCH does it also not have a chance ...?
because one of the altc BTC relatives is very good development in price and service. often some people use it when the price of the second largest coin, ETH falls. because the service is so good, fast and their prices are stable. I think this BCH can also shift the position of ETH in the crypto market.

ATOM could be the top coin if the coin is doing something great in the midst of other coin conditions are declining. Because, the level of people's trust in coins now is only fixated on BTC and ETH.

For me it is not possible to achieve by ATOM, I think ATOM is the same as other hype coin which will eventually become shitcoin. If you say it's possible for ATOM, at least you give a factual reason why it will happen? If I see it is not possible because the top 3 coins are not hype coins, they have an important role in the crypto industry and that is not owned by ATOM.

There are several factors that must be taken when compared, I will mention the most important factor,  Etherm has great popularity because there is a lot of tokens dependent on its own blockchain.

no, that's not possible anytime soon. the real ethereum killer is binance with its binance chain. see how they begin to disrupt the dominance of ethereum and other coins.

for Cosmos, I think this coin might be in the top 10 in the future. but for the big 3 I think it's hard because there are a lot of coins with big users there.

I cannot count how much potential killers of ETH are existing. Almost every single altcoin that is getting popular, wants to take the space of ETH on coinmarketcap, but I do not believe that this happens in the upcoming 10 years.

How i think, EOS be a Ethereum killer. Ethereum died like a dapps platform couple years ago. (IMHO)

I do not nothing about Ethereum and I do not see a reson why every coin that is pumped to top 100 so quickly should replace estabilished coins that have more developers, more users, more investors.  ???

I have done some research on  this project. I think it is massively centralized. It is not a true cryptocurrency project and it way inferior to ethereum.
Some of the cool solutions it has for interoperability could as well be solved on pure centralized platform.
It is not censorship resistance which is what matters most.

as long as the Cosmos project is good and continues to progress, then I believe coin from Cosmos (ATOM) can be the top 3 in coinmarketcap, but to kill Ethereum I believe it is very difficult, because in my opinion there are still many people who believe and choose to invest in Ethereum, so for now no one can kill Ethereum including the project from Cosmos.

Cosmos is a very good alt, no doubt here. This coin is growing incredibly, but to think ATOM as an Ethereum killer is like a daydream! I don't think Cosmos has enough potential to become the top three coins in the crypto market, I would prefer it on top 10!

No one altcoin can become a threat to Ethereum. ETH is supported greatly. Probably, 90% of people, who work with the cryptocurrencies, have this altcoin in their portfolio. It will be strange to guess that some new token that has appeared on the market can ruin this huge platform. It is nonsense. Besides, after the Ethereum 2.0 launch, the crypto will be even better.

Absolutely Not. im already full of these lousy prediction about a so called Ethereum killer like a sci-fi film. all we know that ethereum was reach these level because of its real use case and real-deal application like smartcontracts thats why Ethereum was dubbed as King of smartcontracts, Cosmos is also a promising project but im doubting if it can catch ethereum level soon.

There are dozen of topics in alt discussion section with similar headline:
Tron TRX ethereum killer? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4458887.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4458887.0)
Is Libra the Ethereum + Ripple + EOS + TRON + .... killer? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5155731.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5155731.0)
Cardano will replace ethereum! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4953939.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4953939.0)
Waves know out Ethereum! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5085269.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5085269.0)

There are many more, but until now neither of this coins came close to ethereum in any way. Ethereum is the number 1 platform and that will stay like that for couple more years. Other platforms dream to beat ethereum, and that`s the only thing they can do, dream about it.

A new coin will always have a good volume at the early time of the trading but that will decrease with the development progress. And you can see what happened with almost all of the crypto even the major coins too.
The hype will not be forever and this will follow the market and if the team can provide any update and investors will stay or the opposite thing happened when the team can't give something and then investors will have gone.

What do you mean of Ethereum-killer? DO you mean that COSMOS (ATOM) can kill Ethereum?
Well, ATOM is one of the good altcoins and now this altcoin is on the top 20 of Coin Market Cap. However, the value, price, and also circulation supply are still far lower from ETH. If it will be an ETH-killer, it must try and work hard again to defeat other altcoins above, such as BNB, LTC, Ripple. But, I think that it may be hard to be done.

Ethereum has advanced more than all these coins that is being mentioned, and even if there is going to be any coin that may threatened the position of Ethereum, it could be the Libra coin of Facebook because of its popularity it already got despite the fact that it has not been launched.

Libra coin will really have a very strong community because if you see that it’s social media user database, already consist of millions of billionaires that have too much money and would want to just try out whatever Facebook is proposing which they may believe that it will be of great interest and use to them, but Ethereum is quite string too to keep Facebook relevance off the crypto market.,

Any alternative cryptocurrency can go not just top 2 or 3 but can get the top rank.
Though it must be proven first by climbing to top 10.
Ethereum can be replace anytime but i think that is very hard to do, though XRP making it some time.

Honestly, I am not aware of this coin. There are two ATOM ticker in the Coinmarketcap
Atomic coin https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/atomic-coin/ and
Cosmos https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/cosmos/

I think you are talking about Cosmos, because it is rank 20th in the market, I don't know it's strong features or how huge is the community that it can beat Ethereum, you clearly did not explain this to us, I think you are also not aware because you are also asking.

I've also checked the ROI, I always look on it on every coin that I am interested to invest
it has  ROI -40.80%, so it seems early investors are losing on this token if they are still holding their token

it can only be done by coins with the development and use of as many or as many platforms as the development of the ethereum platform. those who are new, it will be difficult for us to say we can replace ethereum.

There are a lot of projects came to Cosmos. Now there are about 50 projects on board. Not sure if they can beat ethereum in this year, but next year could be very interesting in terms of competition.

New projects need more time to become ETHkiller, I remember when NEO was newly created, everyone said the same thing, so just look at the current ranking. I can not say ATOM will be like that, but to be ETHkiller it needs to be stronger than ETH and it is necessary to continue without stopping, because stopping will make it "ATOMkiller".

but I think that if not Cosmos then there will be other projects which will remove ETH from its place in the cryptocurrency market. Ethereum is not as interesting as a year ago

Although Cosmo (Atom) has a very good concept be giving dividend to investors as seen in Hotbit and Imtoken 2.0. I still doubt they are ethereum killer. ETH is established in this industry already.

anything can happen and might happen in the future in the development of blockchain technology, the ethereum project is quite old and the new project will definitely offer new technology, so far many good projects and some people think they will kill ethereum but the reality is that nothing has worked shift ethereum to date.

dividends are good, ETH, however, is not only used as the currency of accumulation and growth, there are projects on it, plus payments are being made, and programmers are following market trends, if something is very good, they can also enter this into ETH

Saying Cosmos is an Ethereum killer is basically like saying that Ethereum is going to be the killer of Bitcoin.. it's just impossible.
Ethereum is a trading pair in almost all exchanges (if not all) and has a stronger community, there is hardly a crypto enthusiast that has not traded or held ethereum at one point in their lives, the same cannot be said about Cosmos.

Cosmos has yet to prove its worth, to show its performance. Ethereum is an established ecosystem that occupies one of the leading positions among blockchains. My answer is no, Cosmos cannot do anything with Ethereum.

Q: Can [insert new smart contract platform] replace ETH?
A: Anything is possible, but this new project hasn't yet proven itself or been battle-tested in the way that ETH has. This is a promising new project, but is still largely based on speculation and hype.

I think this applies to quite a few coins, not just Cosmos.

I think there is a lot of way to go plus ethereum is doing plenty of stuff and not just oen thing.

I don't think there is a chance ethereum stays where it is staying, I am pretty sure it will drop eventually but I am not sure if it will be because of cosmos, it would be combination of bunch of coins all making a name for themselves getting a chip from ethereum slow by slow and eventually dropping it, ethereum could still be highest them of all but I doubt it will be the biggest one, there is a chance it could be like 2-3rd biggest in the same territory coins. That is why I believe cosmos is not an ethereum killer but cosmos like coins all together combined make for an ethereum killer, that would at least have enough power to rattle ethereum for a while and eventually make it lose its spot.

I remember Cosmos having closed ICO in half an hour in 2017. Recently they were added to Binance. Any used cases so far?

I want to say that ATOM is really a very good cryptocurrency, but it is relatively Ethereum. The technical strength of the team, people's recognition is still lower than. I want to grow over time. In the future encryption market, ATOM will have a wonderful performance.

This is not only the first thing dude, tezos and tron have already made their self-proclaimed like cosmos (maybe it's created by a fan but this is a speculation thread and it's not big problem) in the past if both will be replaced ethereum in the future but they can't. to battle with a coin like ethereum which has very big communities was not an easy task.
All coins have the same chance but the result will have proven their claim.

I want to write about Tezos also. Project has a good development, own language for smartcontracts, many ideas and good tps. The Cosmos killer feature is working platform. Binance use their base for example. And it's good. But Tezos has enough time and forces to make a good solution for programmers and users. I think we will see a strong competition not so far

There is no reason why the atom cryptocurrency should get into the top 3... Yes, at the moment, the atom feels very good but that until then, the ETH does not launch an update to Ethereum 2.0. After that, many altcoins very much lose their price. Many will not be able to cope with the colossal capitalization of Ethereum.

You made me smile when i read the title. I do share the same thoughts with you honestly. Cosmos has proven that it is made by a group of very, very experienced peoples. I do like them and i can truly see that they have a big opportunity to become amoung the top 3 coins. The only issue is that Ethereum has alot and alot of investors. Cosmos should bring investors now, it's just a matter of time.

Many are thinking every other coin coming now can beat ETH when am sure it can't happen and I still very much wonder why many think that way , though ETH might be old coin but that doesn't say it will be killed by new coin , so I don't see ATOM killing ETH now and in future.

That reason is what makes me included in this topic. Which makes me curious about what projects or altcoins want to defeat ethereum. Maybe so many projects that say something like that. If it has been proven to succumb to new ethereum I believe in this.

ATOM may one day be one of the best coins, I agree with you that it will not get intonthe top 3, neither will it  be of any threat to Ethereum's existence, with or without Ethereum 2.0

Bounty Hunters very much help the development of the project. An impressive number of investors learn about the ICO from bounty hunters and thanks to their work. Very often projects themselves buy the coin from bounty hunters and do not allow to understate the price when listing on the stock exchange. If the price of the coin falls then this is not the fault of the bounty hunters.

I don’t doubt the fact that Ethereum can really get lots of competitors in future which may eventually remove Ethereum from tat top position, but not with that cosmos because we have too many potential projects that can remove Ethereum and which cosmos will have to deal with first, EOS still has a better system, and Binance is the greatest threats to them all, so if they want to have their way to the top, they need to first deal with each other first, but I don’t usually judge these coins based on the position they are occupying because every one of them can never sit on same throne, but they can all share something in common, which is giving very quality services to their users and making sure that they continue  working according to their promises in their whitepaper.
