I am trying to decipher what the future holds for eth, asides its smart contract purposes which of course bnb can offer, what else do you think will help keep eth relevant. Because I see some projects trying to migrate to binance chain, I see that it won't end well for eth as long as bnb keeps improving.

BNB is giving a good fight to Ethereum. But I don't think BNB will ever pass over Ethereum or make near it. BNB is backed by the largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance and that's why it's pumping so much. When Binance loses their position in the market, the token price of BNB will be down a lot like other alt's.

It's clear that Binance using their power to push BNB and want to increase the activity of their chain. Some people taking this as a way to get in Binance exchange. I mean who doesn't want to be listed on the #1 exchange. This is why we're seeing projects moving from eth platform to Binance Platform. This is not good for the community when someone misuses their power. If they give out 1 BNB just to use their platform I am not going to use it. I don't think they created anything new leave ETH chain and use their chain. BNB is a short term investment opportunity with huge risk where ETH is for long term investment. Now people need to decide which one they're going with.

BNB doesn't have smart contracts though, not really. I don't think it can compete with ETH in this space. Unless this is just using something like Cosmos. It's not like BNB has years of development of its own smart contract platform. It can and is competing with ETH on token issuance, but I don't agree that it is competing directly in smart contracts. At least not yet.

BNB is doing fine because it is the biggest exchange right now, but what happens if something wrong happens with their exchange in the future? and its sole purpose is to empower the exchange itself. Nothing more than that, while ETH itself is a project that is dedicated to revolution our financial system just like Bitcoin.
from that alone, we can tell that BNB will never overtake ETH. Unless it is abandoned

It is OK for me if BNB would overtake ETH but I guess that would be very impossible for BNB to do because of so much work Ethereum had made in the past that it is simply the second rank Cryptocurrency even if it had lower prize than BNB I guess that leading coins is much more what it takes,

But again If BNB would be a second option it's OK with me, I because I believe it will surely rise to the occasion with the bullish trend even thought it will not gonna overtake ETH.

I'm extremely bullish on BNB and am excited to see where we go in the coming years. I'm not sure if it'll overtake ETH though.

I dont'k thik you can compare ETH to BNB, for me it's different coins
But ok, let's think for a moment, ETH has one of the most known devs of cryptos, there's no big problems in ETH and ETH is older and solid
Another thing to consider is the fact that ETH is supported by a huge community
BNB have to prove a lot of things to reach ETH

Ethereum is designed primarily for smart contracts, Dapps,governance. In relative terms, BNB has only a tiny fraction  of the number of projects that currently on ethereum. Ethereum has the first-movers advantage and has a huge community supporting it. The few migration to BNB chain is principally a marketing ploy at the moment, binance is more or less the most successful exchange

BNB will never overtake ETH because what determines the level of the surge in the price of every cryptocurrency in the market is the level of support and concept. ETH has the concept which some worth dying for to the crypto community while BNB is just a coin used on the exchange platform as fee payment and now slightly accept by some shore owner.

Pretty great expectations mate exactly it's clear binance exchange continue to support BNB to breaks and overcome the price of ethereum.
I agree with i don't believe BNB will ever pass ethereum in their current value, okay assuming that BNB surpass the price of ethereum but not means BNB is a new comer quenn of crypto we know how much ethereum impotant use for the project development.

There will be ethereum 2.0 and that's what most of the holders are waiting. This will give all of the eligible holders to stake and earn because the algo will change from Pow to Pos.
It's taking a lot of time and no one knows on until we have to wait for that time. But as far as most concern, this will make certain pump for ethereum and if that happens we'll see ethereum making noise again.

fyi there are more than 2000 coins & tokens listed on CMC (there are even bigger if you include all token & coin which didn't listed on CMC), and all of them are different coins, none of them is same.

So what if its known by many crypto devs? Are they the biggest holder of ETH? Just because it's older than BNB doesn't mean it's better than BNB.

Do you think BNB doesn't have community?
What should they prove to you?
1. BNB has the biggest exchange, ETH? It doesn't.
2. BNB will keep burning their token to 100 million supply, it will be lower than ETH's supply

BNB has experienced a very good price increase in recent weeks, Many investors and traders have bought this coin.  But to defeat Ethereum is not easy, because Ethereum is a very popular coin today and Ethereum is the best altcoin after Bitcoin.

I think US trades will move to decentralize exchange such as Airswap platform. As this platform provides huge liquidity at market price. I lost all the respect for CZ because he is just another Rich who is using black methods to increase property. Don't you guys see BNB is dropping and last 2 projects listed on Binance didn't do well like the past? Because Binance fulfilled their pocked already and made their users bankrupt. Look at the altcoins market every coin making all-time low prices and Binace accumulating these coins at a cheaper rate and funding their cold storage account. I wonder if Binance is dumping on users and buy back at a low price.

The main two issues between Binance and Ethereum is the product & trust. Where most of the community users & Projects prefer Ethereum network.

You cannot compare BNB with ETH.

BNB is the native coin of Binance Exchange. It was specifically designed to push Binace and not the community. It is better than ETH is many ways but, it cannot take over ETH.

ETH, on the other hand, is a community-driven project. There are more dapps on ETH than on BNB. Projects are using BNB to get listed on the number one exchange. It does not mean that they have stopped using ETH. Like AWC it is still being traded on Idex as an ERC-20 and is also being traded on Binancedex. 

Not a chance unless ETH will never be supported by community anymore, but with the current steps ETH is taking more and more people will adapt it. Might be good if BNB will stay unique and only for exchanges.

Ethereum rise high in 2017 due to ICO booming, BNB rose due to IEO, binance made a very good ecosystem for BNB with binance dex and margin trading, max supply of 187,536,713 BNB. Ethereum total suppy now about 107,190,996 ETH, max supply of ethereum? I can't compare if the total ethereum supply is unknown, but from the present value in the next few years the BNB can overtakes ethereum

The only thing that makes ethereum still relevant because it's still used by so many ICO and IEO to issued their asset and the ethereum chain looks compatible and that's the best flexible chain among all of the smartcontract chains. Those projects are migrating to binance chain are only interested to get the volume from the binance dex dude. But they forget if they can get a little volume from there.

Nothing more so far, and that's why BNB is on the lead now if we think of it's future potential.
Maybe ETH has achieved a lot from its ICO price, but using the 1 year average, BNB is moving well, of course with its good updates, while ETH is doing the opposite.

I remember when the price of ETH had increased drastically at 2017 ago when there are a lot of ICO project who use ETH as their platform. Many people bought ETH because they have intention to participate with ICO project so it has made the price of ETH reach $1400 as an ATH.

Now, the popularity of ICO project has been decreasing because there is a new way which has a safe way to participate in new project namely IEO who managed by an exchange. The IEO was believed by some people to store their money and they will have a good profit from it and so far many people was considered that binance launchpad is the promising place to participate in IEO and I believe it.

I was participated in an IEO project through binance launchpad twice and thus far it makes me got a good profit. I was thinking that BNB will overtake ETH price in the future with the reason IEO project will always be trusted to gain profit for many investors.

Bnb token can only beat eth in price value but cant take over eth position,ethreum has a rough past and was able to become the second best of all crypto,bnb token still have a lot to go and bnb token is just an exchange token unlike eth that is driven by a strong community

maybe now BNB is one of the coins that is always considered to have the best potential, but although BNB is supported by binance, eth is still worthy of being the strongest. from any side eth is still strong being in a position above BNB

if bnb wants to replace eth, in my opinion this is very excessive and impossible because ethereum already has a very good capacity in many ico and other projects. if bnb wants to replace eth it must have a very much better development and requires a long time

comparing BNB and ETH
ethereum experienced a very good increase in 2017 and a lot has been done by ethereum and the very large community, even when ethereum has decreased prices, the community is getting bigger
BNB pupuler a few months ago because of IEO, if in the future IEO is no longer popular, will BNB still have the price it is now? I do not think no
so in my opinion BNB will never replace ETH

But I am not sure if BNB will take over the best altcoin position from ethereum Karet ethereum is longer than bnb and ethereum is more trusted by investors or traders, its volume is also higher than BNB in ​​some large exchanges, although ethereum does not yet have  exchange yourself, but I still believe that ethereum is the best.

Maybe if Binance chain not spread and only stay in Binance, it can't be like ETH in future because i think ETH can be used worldwide in any exchange and already take long time to survived in crypto world. Maybe if stellar or XRP can or have possibility to reach or maybe beat ETH in future.

It is very hard to believe that BNB will take over the position of Ethereum, ETH has a lot of interested people and investors believe in eth, I am very unsure if BNB can take over the position of Ethereum

It is what you believe but we have to realize also how this BNB giving the best to make very competitive in the market today. What it has shown to us lately is something to prove that BNB can have the chance to take over ETH. Of course, it won't be that easy and we know ETH has already established market reputation and as well as investors trust.

i knew bnb is good, but for me ethereum is better than BNB
remember ethereum 2.0 will born and with proof of stake system in the near time, i'm sure both will create new demands on ethereum my friend

The large change will happen once another exchange pops out with a better feature to offer.
BNB is being hyped because of its usage under the roof of the Binance exchange.
ETH was and will never be like that.
That differentiate the two and I dont think it will eevr reach the market and trust that ETH gained for all this years.

I agree with the thread that BNB holds a good fight against ETH. I think once Ethereum finally updates this might help advance the coin a bit more. At the moment they are having technical issues.

ETH never give its best this year unlike it did before but still at its lead in all altcoins in the market. Meanwhile, BNB did well and Binance have such huge influence to make it possible. It is noticeable how BNB been hype and investors get some interest which leaving their trust towards ETH. Though it happens like that but isn't enough to take over ETH.

Ethereum has a large community and first, of course, it is very difficult to compete with ethereum. BNB is only popular because some IEO uses BNB tokens.
apart from that bnb is popular because the binance platform has the best service in crypto trading. that's not a good reason to choose bnb and leave eth.

There's no other coin that has a good trading volume that has a growth this year like BNB.
It was BNB which surprises us even before BTC started its own run, it was able to create a new ATH this year and that's the big difference.

I don't think Bnb will replace eth, but I think it has considerable potential in the future,Under the umbrella of binance, of course, BNB has quite large fans and large investors can grow the price of BNB.

Maybe for the next two decades that ETH is not anymore supported by community. If BNB want to overtakes it then they should be more unique on their own and if they are for exchanges then make some products just for exchanges.

See each one has a different set of developments. Most of the companies will show interest towards the ETH blockchain compared to Binance because Binance blockchain completely based on the exchange development and security. Whereas ETH blockchain is widely used by many companies.

if that happens, it means that the ecosystem of the binance blockchain  has grown very large or even greater than the use of ethereum blockchain now. for now it hasn't happened yet because the development of the new binance is making a move on how to make more platforms connected to their blockchain.

Yups Not Yet And Maybe sooner as competition in crypto is getting higher and higher.not only in prices but in service as well.ethereum is a good coin no doubt about that but BNB is one of the fastest growing currency today.
lol they will improve if they can offer a product outside of their business and this is what company needs to extend their offering because in business the more the merrier as long as you can handle rightfully

BNB is going on with time and it has a really increasing community, however, I don't think that it will overtake ETH at least in the nearest future. The Ethereum usability and popularity is right now a lot bigger than BNB and any other token.
Also, the usability of the Ethereum platform is a lot greater than Binance usability, in my view.

Both are good coins to be honest and you really can't compare the two. But with performance, I think Ethereum is still going to beat BNB. It will take a lot of time first before BNB beats Ethereum in this space and I don't think BNB has a smart contract.

with $192,020,338 24h volumes i think BNB is too far to beat ETH price. they still need a lot of volumes to beat ETH in the future

BNB is a no threat to the survival of ethereum. Most projected that migrated to binance dex lack trading volume, while some just dump and dump. I understand it takes time for development but BnB is a no match for eth stands.

In my point of view BNB can't make overtake ETH because they have different platforms. One thing which ETH remains unique is there Smart Contract which everyone do like most. In addition to this coins ETH is already known and accepted by some countries as next to bitcoin.

It is hard to overtake ethereum, but that will be possible for bnb, especially if the team projects can work hard to serves the better network than ethereum. BNB itself still on the development and while ethereum is already gain much interest from the investor, but everything can change in the future, and we don't know how the future will be. But that is interesting if BNB can beat ethereum as we know that ethereum still the one of the strong altcoin in the market.

Early I thought the same. But now I begin to change my opinion. And that's why. BNB ecosystem becomes more and more. Early CZ didn't want to make blockchain for all. But now I saw rumors about smart contracts on the BNB blockchain. And it will be another step to kill ETH

Where it serves its purpose on the exchange it grows to where it now is but it isnt as independent as Ethereum. It will be a long road to get as accepted and widely used as ETH is.

Too early to say for Binance chain to replace Smart contract.I wont say it isnt possible but still a long way to go.We have seen on how BNB climb on the top rankings on
CMC basing on its total cap but doesnt mean it would surpass ETH anytime soon but who knows right?

Of course, we could see market changes but what we look for BNB it seems to be far enough to take over ETH. We know a lot of investors giving their support into BNB but forget about that cause there is a massive ETH project adopter were helping it to stay unbeatable coin in the market. ETH will still take the lead even BNB keeps soaring high as I believe though.

Nope, BNB will not going to beat ETH in the future since both are designed differently and the strongest coins we got here will be the ETH since it is proven already before. I already saw some post before that competing ETH vs XRP and it doesn't surprise me since i have a strong faith in ETH no matter which coins they have to compare with it.

I am currently seeing that every project are trying to migrate and especially with the improvement of binance chain and bnb. That is the trend however we cannot deny the fact that ETH is still different and with its reputation it might be hard for bnb to overtake ETH.

What reputation particularly you are talking?
Both BNB and ETH have good reputation but the only difference is the reputation of BNB are getting better because it has shown some real progress, while ETH even it has a good reputation, I think its investors might slowly shift to BNB if they can't provide good improvement on the project.

You know what, nothing is permanent in terms of ranking, it's all about competition and big project has to remain competing to remain or improve its ranking.

Ethereum already build a deep foundation of trust among crypto users that is why it was the most commonly used plarform in the market so even BNB has the same features but still Ethereum will be the top choice. Except if BNB will make the transactions services much faster and much cheaper than Ethereum plarform then maybe BNB can possibly replace Ethereum.

we cannot predict this, but now BNB has good potential and it can be used as a potential coin. although the competition with ETH is experiencing a difference but I think BNB can catch up to ETH

I don't think bnb will overtake Eth, they are both a good project,  if you justapose them to each other they are quite different, ethereum is much more faster than bnb and bnb is not much use as transaction as compared to ethereum,  I don't think bnb will overtake Eth

If people continue to support bnb, it can overtake ETH because of its IEO against ICO. As people now only want to make fast gain at the start of a coin before it gets dumped. And IEO gives the opportunity to trade a coin faster. The final product is not important as only money count. All depends on the cost to create an IEO or ICO. ETH is not bad, but it has lost some of its hype. And there were too many exit scam with ETH ICO. But IEO doesn't mean that thoses teams are not scammers.

If I remember correctly, Binance will be unavailable in US in the next months and this greatly affect the exchange because huge percentage of the crypto users came from US. I don't see any possible reasons too how Binance Coin can surpass Ethereum in the long run.

bnb is a token from an exchange, so its important to have exchange open to keep it valuable and when the exchange is gone , this coin will also go...

perfect example is the dot , like bnb also an asset ,  now exchange close (cryptopia).. dots are gone also ...

BNB does not limit their operation on exchange only, they also have their Binance chain, and their Binance DEX are getting more popular now because projects are adopting on the chain.

You can't compare BNB with other exchange token because they have a very progressive development.

sorry m8, been for a while on cryptoland, and saw many "big"echanges screwing people and dissapear  after with the coins and money of people....

binance is still an exchange , so i am not so confident as you are.

BNB couldn't beat what ethereum has been built up for such a significant number of years, and in spite of the fact that it's building up a solid establishment for cryptocurrency community; this isn't guaranteed it will easily break eth's barrier of success. Numerous individuals trusted bnb for the progressive developments and promising execution it has appeared to the general population, yet it has no contract that could back up another tokens like how eth went through effective undertakings that utilized erc20.

In the end, it is good for the end-user, both these project are excellent and BNB is getting good momentum so I like this competition  :)

Everything happening because of binance when binace losses its value in the crypto field then bnb also will lose its value and it may happen at any time but ethereum is one of the standard crypto got its own potential and I think most project also aware of this so they will be sticking with ethereum rather than binance.

I find that hard to believe. But let's put it this way. Ethereum developers will make efforts to restore ETH positions. And they do it. It will be an exciting competitive race. Perhaps now they understand that they need to constantly develop their coin.
It would be nice if both of these assets will be around for a long time, as this can be useful for us.

There I absolutely nothing, that is still the only product that I see Ethereum have, and except maybe they are developing any new technology that I am not aware of or still hidden to the public. This is typically the reason why some people believe that Binance could lead Ethereum in the market in near future, because Binance has chain technology like Ethereum too, and with this their IEO, the chain is gaining more and more popularity

Aside this, Binance still has other products that has already been established by them and these products are very quality ones which usually add to the value of Binance too anytime that people uses them, I think Ethereum should think out of the box and come up with more products too like Binance did.

It's possible that they might overcome Ethereum, Binance has a huge success introducing IEO they enjoyed huge support from the community and many new coins are shifting to Binance chain, I am not a big fan of Binance, I am more lenient on Ethereum.

But the stat and the chart cannot lie, just grab this an hour ago from coinmarketcap graph

One thing we can be sure of Binance is a must-have coin and should be added to every investor's portfolio.

if we look at the trading volume that exists every day, it is very far for BNB to be able to overtake the ETH. but it can happen but there is little possibility. there is still a little hope, but I'm not sure it will happen in only 1-2 years. need a big adoption of BNB that can make BNB overtake ETH.

yes, even though there are some projects that have also switched to binance chains, but the ethereum chain has formed very strongly. doesn't mean it can't be destroyed, but it will be very difficult. ethereum has been very strong, and BNB is now just beginning its growth. binance requires more power than now.

And, project who migrated to Binance Chain, i think it's only for liquidity their project like : price, marketcap, being listed on binance dex & hoping it will listed to binance cex too with community listing contest. Not about product or technology itself

What will keep ETH relevant is that it is not directly affiliated with any exchange, it seems people are forgetting that if you want to avoid the collapse of the value of your money you need to pick a decentralized currency, BNB is doing well because Binance is doing well, but at some point Binance will not be the best exchange of the world simply because a new and better exchange appears or there is a massive hack and they lose the confidence of investors.

Even years will accommodate, bnb could ovetake eth if they don't have a system could compete ethereum contract. We witnessed how promising is bnb right now, that why it's getting more popular at trading sites and it's really growing progressively. Ethereum nowaday remain constant to their developments so it won't be taken down for that reasons of bnb coin. What's advantage of bnb, it would be more advanced with ethereum.

 I know what you are talking about and knowing the innovation that Binance - BNB is currently doing for sure they can overtake ETH and my only point is it might be hard for them but not impossible especially in the past months and even year - ETH is not that doing good in terms of value even on its improvement, I would definitely agree that the competition is really good between projects.

You can't say what they are just currently doing as for sure BNB are also actively developing the project, and the good thing with BNB is they have delivered some good results that's why people are investing on the coin.

If you talk about IEO is the reason why BNB reached it's ATH, you also have to remember that ETH has reached it's ATH because of the popularity of ICO, and now that ICO less popular than IEO, I guess this is the time of BNB to show up more.

in fact, for now, I see that the development of BNB is faster than ETH. because of this, I think that currently, BNB has the potential to replace ETH. Well, even though ETH is still used as a role model for the platform of a project, their goal is binance, and this certainly makes BNB even more needed. somehow it will be if BNB replaces ETH, but I don't think ETH will lose the development problem either.

No matter how strong ETH is, BNB will never be able to cross ETH because the market has been around for a long time and many projects with lots of ICO around Ethereum platform has come to the market.And also there are many projects going on Binance exchange but they still can't overtake Ethereum. Ethereum is more powerful coin than BNB and today its rate cheap but i believe in coming year ETH will make new high.

BNB could use some tricks to increase its price like saying that it is going to burn some coins or giving dividends (which they also mentionned about their credit card fees going to bnb holders).
ETH can't use this kind of trick to manipulate its price. It is more difficult now for ETH to manipulate artificially the market compare in 2017 when he had the quasi-monopole of new ICO and smart contracts.
I prefer ETH, but BNB is more hyped currently. And as an exchange, they can manipulate prices of cryptos more easily.

BNB is not even a real cryptocurrency. How can it compete with altcoin? BNB is a token of Binance exchange. It attracts investors with its unique function - burning of coins. Investors get much profit due to the company strategy, but all this stuff has no connection with Ethereum and popularity of the altcoin leader. ETH will be up, although Binance Coin will be in trend.

BNB is very tied to Binance Exchange, when Binance was hit by a Hacker attack, BNB dump . but not long after BNB actually rose. this indicates that BNB is trusted. if the Binance community gets bigger, Eth can be defeated.

When it comes to hacking that would greatly affect the reputation of the site, maybe Binance just got lucky as the first attack was just not big enough that their SAFU funds can't cover, if that will happen again, I don't know where Binance will stand, probably it will drop from its ranking now.

this might happen if bnb is able to keep up with developments like ethereum. but this will not happen because ethereum has controlled the market that is already trusted, BNB is indeed a very fast price increase because many IEO programs in binance, which must use bnb coins to participate in the IEO program.

very far BNB rivals ethereum because with the level of trust that many have used the ethereum platform in many ico and projects. so if you think I should develop more to be equivalent to ethereum

First of all, both of these projects can coexist. There is no doubt that bnb will continue to be one of the most popular projects out there, but it's too early to say it will overtake eth.

It's pretty obvious that Binance Coin is gaining huge attention from crypto investors. This has been on the increase for quite sometime now especially now that they have also launched thier own DEX you can see the price of BNB rising steadily from time to time. However i don't think BNB would ever overtake ETH looking at the huge community that Ethereum has compared to Binance project.

The idea of BNB over taking ETH in terms of market capital must be a possibility in the future, i am not sure why everyone is comparing Ethereum with Binance project, if you want to see a mass adoption in BNB then you need to have real world use case rather than being used in binance and their DeX and merchants have to start accepting them which is far from reality as of now, until we see some real world use of binance coin then we will talk about overtaking ETH.

Its really tough to say now whats going to happen .Both coin has a great platform and well established .We are watching a downtrend to the market and eth has got a strong downtrend on the the other hand BNB keep moving up .BNB getting always a god momentum to the up .It could be a chance to overcome the eth But its the market always unpredictable new lets see how market act with us .

You can talk a lot and predict about the prospects of Binance, but if hackers continue to break into this trading platform, then we all need to understand the danger of cryptocurrency users and their means.  Ethereum can never have such problems.

Because ETH has only limited platform, of course they don't have an exchange but BNB is developing, they understand the competition and they don't rely on the popularity of their exchange only although for now that's the business that gives them significant boost and if that will destroyed that would be bad for the holders of the coin.

There has been a hack, first it was crypto, now it's the KYC information, they have to do something to improve their security and instead of making excuses, they just need to focus on the solution.

now the development of BNB is faster, but what will be copied from ethereum by BNB? price? currently the price is still very far and it will not be overtaken in the near future.
or maybe BNB will overtake trading volume on coinmarketcap? it is also still very far at the moment BNB is still far behind ethereum.

If we are cool with the competition among them, then we should not be bothered if they are growing in value or not, and we should not be using value to judge them because you already said it now that competition is good. This competition is what I see why some coins are not improving in value even though they are being used and function well.

Before Binance came up with their IEO, many people are only familiar with Binance smart contract, so if any project wants to develop a blockchain project, their first interest and first contact would be Ethereum, but ever since they got to know of Binance chain also, they have to weigh the option first and whoever is pleasing to them is what they choose making the other person lose out from what would have added value to its value.

If BNB wants to overtake ETH, they need to be the main pair on almost every exchanges. Also, BNB needs to beat ETH Marketcap too...
Is possible but it takes time...

Bnb is very concentrated and dangerous, fools will believe in ieo
How many exchanges have appeared in the ten-year history of cryptocurrency
Appeared like a meteor and disappeared
Think about what happens when binance disappears

ETH does a lot already and we know its market capability how it helps the market of being known to the people.
The journey of ETH isn't done already, but BNB making a way also to be highly recognized to the investors. It is very attractive to see how it continue to soar high and might be a conqueror with ETH in the future. Though we really don't know what next but the chances still be there.

It seems to me that the BNB will never overtake the ether,because the BNB is a stock token,and the ether is a whole network,with its blockchain

There is not only BNB blockchain (BEP2) that can overtake ethereum, there also EOS, TRON and few other big challengers than could take its place, don't forget them! But you're right many people talk about which crypto  could replace bitcoin, but we forgot that some of them could replace ethereum first.

takes time, that's for sure.
but it will be very difficult if the use of their blockchain is also still small. therefore, we can now see the developer offering how some old coins also migrate on the blockchain from binance.

it is only a prediction for BNB right now, the price of BNB cannot be used as the best price to overtake ethereum. so I think for BNB to experience it still must take a long time. and that requires a lot of processes for BNB to overtake ethereum

We already observe how the flow of eth in the market and how it has been recognized by many users. There is a chance but we do not know in the future for Bnb if the development would be good that can attract more users into this project.

if that thing happens it would benefited the binance LOL

in my opinion even though the level of BNB coin movement is very fast but in the competition the ETH coin market will not be when with BNB coins

what you say is true, but binance is already anticipating hacking problems with SAFU (Secure Asset Fund for Users).
and one of the advantages of BNB tokens is the biggest exchange tokens, but this is also a weakness of BNB tokens, when the reputation of the Binance exchange is damaged, the price of BNB tokens will go down. so it's quite difficult for BNB to defeat Eth.

If we see thw growth of BNB now it is will making ETH move.
But ETH is keep strong and still good coin for now, maybe if BNB can overtake ETH it need a long time like 5 year or more.
Juat my speculation for this case.

I dont think. Many institutional investors are buying ETH. ETH is one of the best platforms. You can not even compare ETH with BNB. BNB is just an exchange coin. Please remember Poloniex. You can not say that Binance will never lose its popularity which means dead of BNB.

it is because BNB is more growing in this year and makes people think If BNB will overtakes ETH, I think ETH is stronger than BNB and this is not a fight but this is who the best coins is are. everyone already knows that ETH is a good platform and a good coin, it takes a long time to be popular on crypto like Ethereum. of course BNB must try hard to be popular like Ethereum.

Looking at the time when both were born and built up a reputation in the market, ethereum probably still dominates when it has so many good achievements, has a long-term connection with this marketell in that job but everyone should consider clearly, this is the crypto world, the explosion and the creation of magical stories can still happen. BNB has qualified and opportunities to create that feat when it is still pushing very hard and every day with bnb, it is a different development step while ethereum is starting to become as slow as a turtle

Token or coin, it doesn't matter, what matter is its use case.

ETH is definitely way more popular than BNB, although BNB this year has really made some good movement achieving its new ATH.
In comparison, we can check on the details below.

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/binance-coin/ - with $187,782,159 USD  24 hours trading volume
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/ - with $8,412,155,364 USD ,  24 hours trading volume

Now we see the big difference, so this means BNB has to grow more to compete with ETH but it would only be easy if ETH will start falling.

i still dont get why bnb would takes ETH over ??
eth has nice platform and dapps , what has BNB ??

BNB just another competitors from ethereum, just like the past a lot of alts said if they are the eth killer,,
but the facts until now ethereum still become the best alts in the market my friend,,
i bet eth will always better than BNB  ;)

BNB is a nice platform as well, it has its exchange which is very popular, meaning they are operating profitably and we can see that on how BNB has growth. People are looking on the future potential of BNB and if only ETH has perform this year, they would not thought of this possibility.

Binance has its own chain, and that will compete with ETH, in fact, when compared their DEX which is relatively new, it's more popular now than any ETH tokens DEX and it has the biggest volume compared to the total number of volume in ETH tokens DEXs.

There's logic in your words. Indeed, we have seen many times how many projects were called ETH killers. In the end, all these statements turned out to be a sad disappointment.

eth has been proven in many exchanges and now eth needs a lot of projects for ico. so I think maybe BNB still has to be more developed if it wants to compete with Ethereum. It won't be that easy to rely on the big names of binance to overtake ethereum

Many glorify BNB as a Token that will become the top-tier Token in Cryptocurrency, because BNB's price movements are quite good at the end of this month.  That does not matter because it is proven that the growth of BNB value is quite good.  But Ethereum as an older coin that has appeared and has been traded on almost all Crypto exchanges in this world, is not easy to defeat.  it means that Ethereum is still far superior compared to BNB.

OK, now I'm confused as to whether BNB has that functionality or not--as many of you know, my level of expertise in matters of cryptocurrency doesn't even qualify as expertise.  I'm pretty much a moron when it comes to stuff like this.  I do know that one of the big selling points of ETH is that you can create smart contracts on its platform, and if I'm not mistaken it was a pioneer in that area.

I tend to think that ETH has the first-mover advantage in this, and it also has a stronger community as far as I know.  I don't think BNB will give ETH a run for its money, but who knows.  The exchange is so popular that it could well happen--but all it would take is for a major goof-up on Binance's part for everything to come crashing down.  It's not like that hasn't happened with numerous exchanges over the years.

My vote is for ETH, and I'm not saying that because I own any, because I don't.  BNB is relatively new, so it hasn't really proven itself in the crypto community like ETH has.  In fact, I'm not sure what all the BNB hype is about.  I've been reading a lot of that here lately.

I don't think BNB has potential to replace ETH both have totally different concept while ETH is pioneer in smart contracts era and it have more big dev team as compare with BNB. I think it is just speculations while big whales are manipulating the market and making new bag holders with fake hype.

i've been for a while on cryptoland, i do not trust exchanges anymore, anytime they can close the exchange and run away with coins/ money ...

what will happen if they AGAIN get hacked ?? last time they had spare and now ??

binance is a trusted one . if ever they want to close they will make an advance announcement because they dont want to scam thier users as they already gained the  trust from the public  .  sure they have been hacked once but i heard that the funds are recovered or have been refunded by them , so no worries  . i think they can do the same thing again  and now they now have upgraded thier security into a new and solid one  .

Do you really believe that? If they close it will be like other exchanges who closed their doors like Cryptopia. You are going to know it had closed with a news on some bitcoin news website and it would be too late for you to withraw your coins.

its up to you how much faith you put on exchanges, like i said been for a while in this world , saw a lot ;)

Those people that are migrating to binance chain are clearly doing it because of the bandwagon effect. BNB is like a popular brand of shoes or bag so any project altcoin will do that to have wider trader exposure. And that is the negative side of BNB which is it could be very significant for now because of their IEOs but it's just an artificial growth which is not the case on ETH so I doubt that BNB will overtake it.

Many people think that BNB can replace ETH. And that has happened that BNB does have an excellent development. And the increase in trading volumes is very high and this happens when many coins have decreased. But it is very difficult to replace ETH because ETH also continues to be the main choice as a platform.

Many people think that ethereum can be replaced, but it can`t. Ethereum have a strong team behind and they have excellent development. Bnb is exchange coin, and platform, it`s a good idea and they made nice progress this year, they are in the top 10, and they got there pretty fast if you ask me. Now they will need to stay there and prove they worth to be there.

binance chain still new, and we don't know if a lot of project run on binance chain my friend
about ethereum, a lot of project already run on ethereum network now, and there is no big issue with that,,
and for me thats really big proof if eth still better than bnb  ;)

Please remember guys the situation of "Poloniex". As you know Polo was the biggest exchange with the highest volume. But today many people even don't know what is Poloniex.

If Binance will lose its popularity what is going to be BNB?

Eth is a milestone, not a pump coin like BNB.

BNB is simply a token of the exchange, and it depends on Binance. If something happens to it, it can even vanish, as it will be not supported anymore. Ethereum is different, and after Ethereum 2.0 is launched, it will become even more attractive to investors. BNB will never overtake ETH, although it will stay popular until the exchange works well and attracts people, who want using the best services.

I agree with this, the popularity of BNB today is not a reason BNB will be a reliable coin in the future.
whereas ethereum is trusted and has a larger community than BNB.
the popularity of bnb is caused by IEO binance. Let's wait and see

Most of the IEO’s are still under the blockchain of ETH, so I guess the system of ETH are still intact and it can still go for the new improvements over the years. BNB is a big name for an exchange, but its coin is just a coin nothing is special in my point of view, anyway let’s see it on the next bull run to confirm if BNB can do overtake ETH.

yap.. that's right, very clear that BNB is supported by the popularity and strength of their exchange, when BNB "up" they dump then when BNB "down" they pump, but that still won't be enough to beat ETH.  ETHEREUM will always be in its place as "the father of smart contracts" & "the best ALTCOIN".

As few others have also mentioned in the previous pages, if Binance will lost its place in the market, there's a high probability that their price will also go down. While eth platform doesn't have to worry about such positioning because almost all exchanges are having eth in their trading portfolio. The scope of eth is wider than BNB, so I guess there's nothing to worry about eth's position in the crypto market.

if the binance coin can defeat ethereum then binance has an extraordinary ability and the binance coin can be a tough rival of ethereum, I also believe that someday ethereum can be defeated by a binance coin that has proven to have an extraordinary platform.

i dont know why there is so much fud on bnb ? its a coin from an exchange-server ?
it will not defeat ethereum ... cause Eth had a head start

Why are we so concern about their ranking, I'm sure it's the ranking that is the basis here when considering the success of the coin but I don't solely rely on that information, BNB is great this year, it made a new ATH and the value is still very attractive, well, there's a possibility that BNB will rise to the no. 2 spot next to BTC and will replace ETH, but, will that be forever? I think not, ETH is still here, so I'm sure they are also working in finding ways to improve their platform.

In my opinion BNB coins are very difficult to match ETH, let alone taking over, it is very difficult to happen, even though the coin binance is undergoing progress and development, I am very sure that eth will not remain silent, their platform will definitely work hard to develop eth  in a better direction ..

it still needs a lot of process if BNB overtakes ethereum. now maybe i think bnb still has to make a progress for ethereum. so I think now BNB will continue to grow and in the near future will never be able to overtake ethereum.

Ethereum is a product of technology and this coin always has a stable community so it is impossible for BNB to pass ETH because both are in different fields and if it comes to potential, ETH is much better. Personally, I always see a lot of articles comparing between these two coins but if you are a speculator it is best to choose BNB because this is a coin that tends to increase when there is a new IEO project and helps you earn profits if you lucky. In fact, both are good for investment and Ethereum is a coin potential long-term

When BNB the coin was able to take over ETH. I guess this will be a new breakthrough for ICO investors, IEO and STO. BNB coin has a very large exchange  "Binance Exchange ". These exchanges have very large trading volumes, so we don't have to worry because these coins will, of course, continue to evolve.

But still many believers with Ethereum still have great potential in the market. And I also hope that by the end of this year Ethereum can re-pump.

BNB will rise in price as many projects go to its side. however, Ethereum also has a future because many people use it for transactions. and if the team limits the coin issue it will be great

Bnb is doing great and with potential to keep reaching the top 5 in cmc but then, overtaking etheruem is something I don't see happening anytime soon and even before whatever will happen in the future, etheruem platform can be stronger. I think the ICO scams caused the down swing of eth but it will rise again and stronger.

People's favourite coin might be can change anytime. Can't resist if developers will race to develop their coin so people can always use it ane make it as favourite coin. If me i will use my logic to see an altcoin. If BNB can overtake ETH in future, so i will change my favourite to BNB.  ;D As long it can make profit, or help us to sell our tokens easily when everything change to Binance chain.

Given the chance that bnb will become more efficient than eth, I guess it would create a worst situations for all eth contract project to fall. Bnb had a strong community, but it's hard to eliminate the system of ethereum and the ongoing developments. It's been taking so long and been supported with several tokens, that's why it could undergo a lot of circumstances until it becomes possible.

wow,,this is very optimistic opinion on BNB mate
but i still believe on ethereum rather than BNB, and because of that i'm sure BNB can't defeat ethereum now or in the future
anyway, lets the time answer, right ?

BNB has become a trend for investment today because of an upside price increase, while ETH is reversed with bad conditions so prices are down. But ETH will still be superior to BNB for the next few years

talk about "if"
i think not only BNB can overtake eth, but all alts with smart contracts platform can overtake eth mate, such as EOS, waves and many more
also a lot of project claimed as ethereum killer,
but, the fact until now there is no alts can beat ethereum as the best altcoin in this industry, right ?

Where there is an increase happening at BNB today, because I only see that there is a sharp decline, BNB is still not strong enough to take over the ETH if it cannot maintain its value when the downward trend occurs as it is now. So fully BNB will not be able to take over ETH because I believe ethereum will be better because of the project and the high popularity there.

BNB might be going to the opposite way while ETH and BTC are going down it is still not enough to surpass ETH with that BNB price. People and whales know what coins they should have to support and beside of that both ETH and BNB is not the same on how they were being used. I believe this downward trend is just temporary just like what happens in most altcoins.

well, i also think if BNB will not overtakes eth
i knew BNB is a good altcoins project created by the best exchange team
and to beat ethereum this alts need more demands  ;)

In recent years, BNB has really had a wonderful time of development.
But recently, the IEO craze is coming to an end and investors are cold-hearted to Binance.
they gradually sold off a lot of BNB coins and made its price now only trading at $ 22.05.
Looking ahead, it will fall to $ 18.45 if it doesn't hold above $ 21.95.
So I think BNB has only a good time, but in the long term BNB still can't compare to the vast ecosystem of Ethereum.

Both are great coins, to be completely forthright, and you truly can't think about the two. Be that as it may, with execution, I think Ethereum is as yet going to beat BNB. It will require some investment first before BNB beats Ethereum in this space and I don't think BNB has a brilliant contract.

What else has made bitcoin so popular? The same thing has made ethereum so popular. And I do not think ethereum will be beaten by any other coin in the near future. Still, most of coins use ethereum platform. I also like Binance Coin and its potentiality is growing over time. But ETH is the mother coin and cannot be defeated in near future.

BNB is indeed not as strong as ETH today, in fact, it can be said that BNB is still very far from ETH. it's just that the potential to achieve it exists, even more so at this time. if BNB is developed again, and the price of ETH has not made any progress, I think BNB has enormous potential in replacing ETH.

it's just that, seeing the current developments, BNB is also still trying hard for it. in addition, we can see the development of these two coins in 2020, because in that year ETH 2.0 was also developed, so we can see whether BNB can approach the ETH position or not.

Given the popularity and acceptance of Binance Coin, I can say that BNB can beat Ethereum at some point of time. BNB will become the top coin in the next five years I believe.

maybe after a year or 2 ethereum will be dethrown on 2nd place and bnb will become the eth killer. Just a wild guess for me ,we will see after 2 years if ethereum can still holds the second spot in cmc.

is this not some kind of hype of BNB coin ??
and will this always be the same ( the amount)
atm  max syply is 187.536.713 BNB,  155.536.713 in circulating ( miss btw 32k BNB ???)

I think the value is different but the development of ethereum is little bit low that's why we are asking this type of questions definitely that changes will happening but in all the time investment and most known currency is very good in this case ethereum is best.

Ethereum will stand as its best and just to think that BNB can do better but not in a way that it could surpass ETH value. It is to think how much ETH can do which we can't find in BNB, this is the things makes them different and we know how ETH give a name in crypto.
However, let the market change and so the potentiality will change by then, but I'd never think that ETH will losing its market demand pushing it down.

Nothing is impossible in the space but i am worried on the silence of ETH governance and inactivity. Almost everything BNB stand for now was what ETH was doing before even a at a larger extent, used in ICO, gas payment, smart contract, ERC20 decentralized exchanges etc. Binance has token burning and some staking platform, more development keep because he understand the idea of getting relevant at all font in this space. It will take a lot more work from BNB to attain the height and supersede

I think bnb has the possible indices to make that happen. It is an exchange coin and has really recorded much success on its own and more tokens will be listed on binance as time progress which will rise the volume. That means is going to build bigger platform because the team is really working hard.

yes, indeed the development of BNB is very fast this year. several updates have succeeded in making BNB prices continue to rise. but that will not make ETH weaken because there will also be an update next year. as you said ETH 2.0 will try to improve the ETH market, good luck.

They bough good and BNB is the top exchange so it can make the value of BNB more expensive. If the ETH falls again below XRP then BNB might have the chance to go up and replace ETH but it will take time since ETH will have its future development and its good to have more good coins to choose.

Its a very tough competition for most top rank altcoins in the market currently.Talking about BNB overtakes ETH?I would say that this is nearly an impossible thing to happen.
Yes, we have seen that Binance platform but to think thoroughly does it able to break even with smart contracts thing where ETH becomes famous? How much more if they would upgrade to 2.0? We dont hold up the future but basing on my own preference ETH platform is way more usable and relevant for future developments and technology integration on various industries.

BNB will never be a replacement for ETH, since ethereum has a completely different purpose, creating smart contracts on the platform, which BNB cannot do, Ethereum is paired with all the exchanges I know, it has 2nd capitalization and 2nd place in terms of trading volume, as well as a large the audience.

That's right, this will never be the same and surpass Ethereum my opinion because Ethereum is one of the most popular coins to date despite a very bad price reduction for Ethereum.

Although not very probable, but it's not impossible. Look how much progress they had, in such a bear market!

You know, right now ETH's marketcap is almost 7x bigger than BNB, but if binance continues to turn idea after idea into reality so fast and ETH doesn't fight back well, maybe someday it will be more valuable than ethereum.

I don't believe bnb will get better than eth too. As a matter of fact, I think Changpeng Zhao has over worked himself lately to get CZ to the high it got this year and its current price is not just an indicator of general bad market state but also a reaction from investors no longer buying the bnb hype. I understand it has numerous legitimate usecases but then it really needs more to beat Ethereum blockchain utilities

ethereum is a large project with a very high capitalization and therefore it is not possible for BNB to take over ETH. indeed, BNB has had great growth so far but on the other hand the popularity answers this very different competition because the growth of each project will continue to occur over time

I just don't see this happening. Not anytime soon anyways. Ethereum has way too many projects based around it's technology and I think the main reason people even buy BNB is to save on the trading fees on Binance. In my opinion, the main reason the price of BNB has been going up is because more people are using Binance as an exchange. Those little percent extra in fees that you get from using it to pay for your trading fees really adds up after a while.

If Binance Coin is improving and making a lot of updates, so do the developers of Ethereum, I don't see Binance Coin overtaking Ethereum this year or next year, the gap is too wide they have to overtake other coins and take the number 3 positions.
Binance coin is a coin on the move like Tron they are in contention to be the next big thing, next year onwards are exciting years for this three coins.

They have good competition between ethereum and BNB and as I noticed this last few months to BNB they have a lot of improvements.
But ethereum is more potential more than BNB but if that coin improve more competition will happen and maybe BNB  will rise more than ethereum but I really sure that ether is number 1 most potential altcoins in cryptocurrency because it proves a lot ainxe last few years.

Is this binance chain has able to make your own token also ? like what eth has ERC20 token. Its still too far for BNB to compare to ETH but the good things is both has been successful and for BNB there still have more development can be added .

BNB in the short span of time had proven itself one of the most promising coins but there's still a long way to cover for BNB to overtake ETH. With the additional developments, it may surpass ETH in the upcoming years but till then ETH would stay above BNB...

Indeed because that's a cheap price compared to the potential of this project.
If other projects rise high due to hype, this one is not only due to hype, it has a real use case and people know that Binance is the most popular exchange in the market.I think the price is at dip now, we are given this great opportunity to buy for a coin that has reached its ATH this year and rise to over $30 in just a short period of time, look at how much discount it was given to us.

I am not saying it will not dump because it could, but looking at the long term, that's something to consider.

Number of ETH developers are much more than developers who are working at Binance Chain BEP2.
By the way Binance Chain is getting stronger and stronger every day. Already many projects swap from ERC20 to BEP2. Many new project published at Binance Chain.
With Binance Launchpad also new BEP2 coins enter the market and listed directly at Binance.

As we already know, Binance is the leading exchange and Binance Ecosystem getting bigger everyday it is possible that BNB can take the place of ETH later or sooner.
Also, if you are following the market closely, BNB is trading around 15 USD at the moment, almost same price it was trading 6-7 months ago. So, it is a good change to buy BNB now.

 eth community and programmers are bigger than all from others. somebodies will remember that, lots of tokens contract created by solidity was hackable 2 years ago. and some of eth comunity members whitehat group drained these token owner address to safe wallets.
think this what will happen it occurs on bnb network? some bad cases happened on eth network and the devs get action quickly.

just keep your patience mate, because if ETH 2.0 born
for sure the cap between BNB and eth will bigger than now my friend
personally i still believe if ethereum will always better than BNB
regards

I don't think BNB will overtake ETH, BNB have a goof improve but it's not anough because ETH is more popular and have a good platform and community.

ETH has a reason to be better, and BNB also has a reason to grow better. all have the opportunity, but depending on how the market and the community are assessing a more appropriate position.
maybe now ethereum is better, but it is possible BNB also has the opportunity to be able to match the achievements of ethereum.

BNB have done very well from the inception, i will not be surprised if they overtake eth in price value.
Introduction of binance dex chain is a direct confrontation to ETH, this makes BNB to have multiple streams of supporting funds.
The overtake is very likely.

I really doubt that bnb could take over ethereum I think ethereum will stay number 2 for a long while.
now will the market even recover into a bull market or are we going back down is the real question

I know Binance is a good coin and in future it will reach top five or a valuable position. But Now Ethereum is the number two position and in future it will be holding the position. So, I think, bnb will not overtake eth.

I'm sure each of these coins has its own function, I know that the binance coin is created and has had a very good development, whereas ETH is the first smart contract maker, there will be a positive value for each coin, for example ETH with its marketcap and many ico uses, while binance uses the name of the exchange to attract people with the IEO program.
these two coins continue to grow I think it will be difficult to surpass each other.

I think that the BNB has no chance to overtake Ethereum, but the prospects for price growth are very large. I think that next year BNB can grow to the level of 60-100 dollars with its own network.

ETH will strengthen its place with ETH 2.0 Main advantage of ETH is the number of developers working on it.

BNB is also growing very fast, adaption is going very well. Many new projects at BEP2 and some already swapped from Erc20 to BEP2.
ETH 2.0 will help ETH being strong but if not more new features will come to ETH, BNB will take its place for sure.

These are different cryptocurrencies, and I do not see the reason for their competition right now. Although Binance attracts with the decision to burn their tokens regularly to support BNB, I believe that Ethereum has got better support. Take into account that most Dapps work oin Ethereum (they say, over 87% of them), so ETH is still better for many people than BNB, which is also a relatively new token.

Eth has more long years to influence the market to be sustainable, however BNB has the capability to be more promising like eth but it's not the perfect time yet. If BNB has more new projects to offer to the community like having its new contract, and those projects will provide us more opportunities to take part of it, I think it has more potential to compete for the best market that could overtake other coins not just with eth. Hopefully there's an ICO token that's supported by BNB in order that it could increase adoption.

BNB is another project in another Ethereum. It doesn't make sense to compare the two. BNB aims to be direct money. There is no such claim for the Ethereum. Ethereum claims to create an ecosystem with smart conventions.

Bnb will never overtake ethereum. Ethereum has lots of advantages and, what is more important, it has a huge community supporting it. And BNB is so popular mostly because of Binance exchange. It has nothing to do with the usage. Ethereum is better now and I am sure it will be the same in future, especially after releasing of Ethereum 2.0.

Vitalik better have a little more consideration. Imagine a stock market where Vitalik was the founder. He can come to a better place than Binance if he supports big capital owners. Maybe that's what's going to revive the market.

This thing is really possible to happen and as you can see both of them are in the top rank cryptocurrencies. There has been a lot of development in ethereum and in fact, I have seen about the ethereum 2.0 that makes it more stronger. Talking about binance coins, it has become popular these days and I know this is the coin of binance exchange which also belongs to the major exchange. Maybe we should wait in the near future if binance coin will really overtake ethereum.

I highly doubt BNB can take over ETH. Near impossible if you ask me.

Even if you say that there are other projects starting to migrate to the Binance chain, take note that there are already hundreds if not thousands of projects already being run on Ethereum. A simple BNB coin simply cannot compete with the complexity of smart contract capable ETH. And thats not counting the incoming upgrades with ETH 2.0 and proof-of-stake.

BNB is one of the most successful tokens right now, but in my view, it can't overtake ETH for many reasons. BNB is mainly used and hold by the Binance community, which is huge, but not even compared to the great ETH community growing up fastly, almost daily. Also, the usability of Ethereum is a lot bigger than BNB usability, which is limited to Binance exchange.

Speaking in the current situation, it is true that BNB seems difficult to overtake ETH, but we don't know in the future if the Binance Team updating various cool features, of course the Binance project will be stronger than Ethereum, I see the Binance Team's efforts are still very serious in developing their project.

BNB still a long way to go ,yeah they are going fast but just because of Binance exchange and not because they are really competitive
And BNB is too young to compete for the second top ranked currency ,yeah this coin has future but not this year and not the next for sure.

no guys, Ethereum is still good. You must know and remember. if bitcoin is a pioneer of blockchain. So ETHEREUM is a pioneer of the concept of smart contracts. Binance is just an imitation of Ethereum. but in a more perfect form ... basically I am still impressed with ethereum because it provides a unique and useful concept for other developers. and binance also does that. in my opinion most of the developers migrating to the binance chain are utilizing binary fame. because currently binance is becoming the number 1 facility in their market. rest assured, binance will still run under ethereum.

Although there are currently many tokens that have swapped to the bnb platform, in my opinion, the steps to be able to replace ethereum are still quite long because ethereum itself is still pretty much predicted to be able to increase again even though it has to be patient

bnb is commerical stuff but eth is public tech stuff. if we talk about price, once a day bnb burn %70 of circulated token it should overtake.

In fact very few wallets and very few exchanges already accept BEP2 tokens, so I don't think the BNB blockchain can overtake Ethereum blockchain soon.

Ethereum is always occupy the huge marketcap so you are right, But BNB also booming rapidly so we will growing faster than other altcoins.
I think many time ripple will trying to beat slowly, But Ethereum will raise rapidly so Ethereum is always occupy the 1st position in altcoin. So wait and see what will happen on future days.

and this coin can only be use in there palform no real use cases in other thing  unlike ETH .

You are wrong, there is many project moves to BNB chain, if you think no real uses, you need to make a research about projects was swapped to BNB chain. I give some example, Mithril from ERC20->BEP-2 standard, Fusion, DeepCloud and more.

In the positive side due to binance dex there's project who already switched from Eth chain to Binance chain. Competitions between platforms is good to see around the market, it's a good sign of healthy industry that we are inside, there's no certain assurance though that even there's projects who switched it will surpassed or overtake the position where ETH still holding.

The future will decide if what possibilities to happen lets all observe and believe whatever we plan to support between the two.

I am not very sure that BNB is able to take over for ethereum. because BNB is not a platform like ethereum so to be able to compare it in my opinion is not quite right when someone gives an answer. replacing in terms of IEO and ICO may be correct . but IEO is also currently not so long able to survive the trend has begun to not be interested

Until recently, many bitcointalk users were outraged if they started discussing the possibility of replacing Bitcoin with ethereum.  Everything was explained by the unreality of this situation, as if Bitcoin and Ethereum have different roles in the cryptocurrency market and their functions will never overlap.  But the situation has changed and we see a completely different reality.  But in relation to BNB and Ethereum, in my opinion, it can be said accurately and without any doubt that BNB and ETH are really created for different functions in the cryptocurrency market and therefore it makes no sense to compare them.  BNB will never replace Ethereum in the first place due to the fact that Ethereum is already a full-fledged coin with its own blockchain and at the same time is a promising platform for smart smart contacts.

Binance are doing an excellent job, and BNB is certainly a promising coin, but I can't see it overtaking ETH.

A lot of what Binance offers is 'current', whilst most of ETH's potential price is in 'future' functionality - I don't mean stuff that it can't offer now but will in the future, but rather integration of smart contracts into the mainstream. I think 5G may help to start this off, as it should lead to big developments in IoT, and IoT is perfect for smart contracts.

If we were to compare about the strength of of both BNB/ETH Blockchain
ETH is definitely stronger because they have tons of scaling solution, smart contracts integration and etc
BNB is mainly just for tokens to be built on top of it

But this does not mean that BNB have literally 0% chance to take over ETH in terms of marketcap of usage
BNB is widely use in Binance as a fee, IEO for the chance of the lottery, and also for its DEX

If Crypto bull run would happened again, If Binance can still be the #1 leading exchange, BNB value would get appreciate alot

There have to be legitimate projects that solve actual problems for coins like ETH, BNB, and Neo to be successful in the long term.  Right now all of these tokens being put out on Ethereum's blockchain are worse than useless.  Most of the time they were created by scammers in the ICO market.  

Not sure about BNB, but it's Binance's baby and they certainly have a strong brand name in the crypto community.  Personally I don't think BNB is going to reach the popularity that ETH has, though those two coins aren't far apart on coinmarketcap.  The real question is to what purpose those smart contracts are going to be put to use.  If that functionality doesn't prove to be useful, what's the point?

If, if.  But I do happen to agree with you and I also think we're going to see another bull run within the next year.  Altcoins, including BNB and ETH, will be boosted along with bitcoin.

Many see BNB as the replacement of ETH since the coin had performed really well this year but still, it won't be easy to take down ETH. There are plenty of coins that are based on ERC20 technology which the base of the ETH blockchain and has always remained as the top altcoin. However, ETH from the past few months is not doing well but I don't think that it would be losing its position so early...

Binanca Chain growing strongly. Binance ecosystem growing strongly. Many projects swap from ERC20 to BEP2.   ETH also have good developments. Expectation from ETH 2.0 is so high. By the way as the advantages of binance exchange, BNB can take place of the ETH in 2-3 years.

Well, if we talk about technology issues and usefulness in some areas related to crypto, especially ICOs and IEOs, eth is probably a lot more outstanding than bnb, therefore, BNB hardly has many opportunities to overcome ETH in these matters. However, our community has also realized how great BNB when it has support from binance exchange, in combination with many events in the community, BNB can surpass eth in terms of position and value in the future if it makes good use of its advantages.

Before deciphering all these things and the challenges that both BNB and ETH will compete against each other is a good story but you need to check the facts too, how many projects are we expecting in the future, does the upcoming regulatory framework will make things easy and if so anyone will trust any new projects with the amount of scam projects we saw in the past and if you have an answer for these then we could debate about which one is the best  :P.

Anything can happen in the crypto market as long as we develop from Binance will have a chance to dominate the price of ETH. Even there are active developments from the ETH but surely ETH will also dominate in the market due to, it has already created credibility in the market.

Not going to happen in my opinion, because ETH is something more global and more fundamental as BNB. BNB is a great token that is backed by the biggest exchange in the industry, but they are on different levels.

I dont think that BNB would overtake Eth because developers has many options to build their own dapps on different blockchains.


I think he meant smart contracts which BNB hasn't that is why shifting to BNB is still limited.

Different levels and different use. ETH has been popular because of its platform to make a smartcontract token and BNB is only backed by one of the popular exchange BINANCE.

did you forget that there is now a binance chain? some ERC tokens have also been switched to BEP-2 although only for marketing they can be traded on the binance DEX. but some have succeeded with swaps that have been made, although some have finally been removed from the binance exchange. that is a bad thing, but BNB has great potential to become more expensive in the future. in terms of usage and market, ETH is still getting better. but in the future who knows what is likely to happen?

I don't think BNB value would overtake Ethereum unless Ethereum regress itself and the value kkeep dropping from the top of the foodchain, Binance seems very short of new addition and features they can add to their exchange, Margin and futures market added already and also the P2P exchange which are all valued into the price already

Binance is purely concentrated on business side while Ethereum is a big eco-system platform while binance chain lacks it, it needs interoperability from cosmos or ftm to work.

While ETH been so useful in many part of cryptocurrencies and different platfroms and projects, the fact that BNB been doing more development in their exchange now like from having p2p trading now, as well their previous Dex exchange tendency that having active team and continuous development inspires investors to push it and might be into top 2, if ETH will not perform as active as BNB even it act as centralized. Will see if this slow bullish trend with alts as well in ETH stops BNB conquering 2nd spot.

But did you realize that binance ICO just held 2 years ago and right now bnb is the most famous exchange and the BNB has really high market cap even it's just in few exchange.
So i'm sure bnb is big rival for ETH and it could be surpass ETH in the future

BNB is too tightly connected to Binance to ever overtake ETH, i think. I don't expect it to ever even have a chance, with Ethereum 2.0 on the way.

You are forgetting one of the biggest advantages of this market, decentralization. Ethereum is a decentralized currency while the binance coin is backed by a centralized institution, as soon as binance begins to show some signs that it is getting weaker you can be sure their coin will begin to go down, I know it seems like binance can do no wrong since everything they are doing is working perfectly, but ethereum seemed that way in 2017 and despite its low price is still here and we do not know if BNB will be as resistant to misfortune.

   In crypto-market everything is possible, I have that on my mind all the time. Who knows what future holds for Binance and
Ethereum, who knows who will be better positioned in 5 years from now, or more? I believe nobody can give us any answers here,
we can discuss about it, we can share our opinions with valid arguments, but that is only a discussion.
   Im not sure what will happen, I will play it safe and I have money in both of them. Slightly more in Ethereum, cause I have more
faith in Eth, but that is just my faith, I can`t say will Binance make some amazing progress in the future.

Im not sure if what you are saying was true before, go to the ethereum thread and look at the ethereum whitepaper. I can say that it's not truly decentralized blockchain because it's pre-mined coin.
Decentralization is not the big advantage consider bitcoin is the only coin that achieved the decentralization with no one controlling the blockchain or has access to it.
BNB is failed to take over ethereum. Binance has nothing to do to compete with ethereum and what has already done by binance is about business.

I don't think it's so simple that BNB can just suddenly offer smart contracts. Unless it is a fork from Ethereum (haven't confirmed) then the BNB devs probably just created the coin with the purpose of storing value. A switch of protocol / process would mean rewriting the entire blockchain and would be a tedious if not a whole new process.

Also I don't see how BNB can overtake ETH when version 2.0 and proof-of-stake is about to be launched.

what helps ETH to be relevant is its Enterprise products and usage
thats what drives this coins since the beginning
ETH will keep being the king of smart contracts because it has the support of so many organizations..
bnb is also very good - they have a great business model
but ETH is decentralized while BNB is profitable mainly for one centralized organization

for the time being we don't know what the development of ethereum 2.0 will be (I hope it will make ethereum back to maintain its position), even though we have not seen BNB develop like Ethereum, but it can be seen that currently people are paying attention to binance, that means BNB has great potential. If binance always makes something interesting, like IEO that is always successful and others, people will definitely be affected and turn to binance. this will make BNB more popular, I'm sure the CEO of BNB is waiting for that opportunity.

I think BNB is one of the safest investment since it's demand is so high because people who hold it can use it for reducing fee of per transaction in binance. Most of traders are trading in binance which means the BNB tokens price won't be fall down because it's everybody needs. And also they always expanding their exchange which will rule the market of cryptocurrency in the future and the demand of BNB will booming

I agree. Bnb has an active and brilliant team who works assiduously to innovate and bring value to the coin which is a big plus, therefore I think Bnb might be the safest investment at the moment but I doubt there's an insurance on this. Why? What gives life might as well hurt badly. Who else noticed the free fall of bnb back below its ath after the IEO boom?

Everyone noticed that, BNB has been always valuable to us and look this year, they were able to make a new ATH because people trust them to grow.
The IEO is now popular, thanks to Binance because they offer this kind of crowdsale that makes people invest safely, yes its pretty safe compared to other IEO.

BNB fall but same with BTC, so there's a little correlation, and actually despite that fall its still profitable this year as we started at around 6 usd now price at 20 usd.

BNB has many utilities for investors when participating in trading at Binance. As I know, transaction fee is always a matter of many people interested in trading and if using BNB investors will be reduced that fee to 25%. In addition, you can also use BNB to join IEO at this exchange because every month there will be a big project appearing here and you must be really lucky to have the opportunity to participate.

Well in general i don't see that BNB will overtake or surpassed eth on cmc rank. They almost have the same use but ETH was still the main thing when it comes to many alytcoins in the market. Ofcurse its use and Vitalik was still not stop from developing ethereum and upgrading it. Hence, it is possible i don't want to disregard the fact that anything can happen in thr future but for now there still more steps and other stuffs that bnb should work to surpass eth.

I'm also not sure about that.
1. Bnb supply is too much, more than Ethereum. of course it takes a lot of money (about prices)
2. Is it not possible this is just popularity? because I myself realize that Binance and Bnb are on the rise but it is not impossible that in the future there will be more popular projects and replace them

You are right, but anything can happen in this crypto market, now there is a huge chance for the BNB to surpass the ETH, it is because the supply of BNB is kept decreasing in the market based on what they mentioned in the roadmap. Every quarter they are burning their supply and it will surely help the BNB coin to dominate the price of ETH.

Those who invested in Binance ICO during the initial phase made a lot of money and i tried to invest during that time but i could not invest and i remember that may be because of country restrictions but everyone who invested made profits but as time goes on and the price starts to increase the risk increases also and hence i never invested in it but if has the capability to over take ETH when it comes to market capital lets see how long it can go.

For now, YES! For long-term holding, NO!

In my opinion, everything connected to centralized institution will eventually die. So it is okay for now if you want to hold some and join the hype to get enough profit, just don't forget to sell all of them before they are crashing down.

one of the strong reasons you say. but it will take quite a long time. and that also requires consistency from the BNB market and their community. if something bad happens with the binance platform, it will hurt the BNB market. they are closely related to being able to control prices from BNB even though it is not directly.

More and more projects are using the platform of BNB because Binance is getting more and more powerful. Its value is growing stronger and stronger as the Chinese government is seeking legal support for Chinese businesses. That will be the foundation for Chinese businesses to grow stronger than ever.
that's why more and more people are relying on Chinese businesses and their platforms. Hopefully in the future Vitalik will do something different with their platform.

In my opinion Binance chain is not for smart contracts and its not competing with smart contracts block chains, but it has it's utilities. Here are the 3 most significant uses of Ethereum's smart contracts: issuing tokens for ICOs, issuing tokens for stablecoins and DEX, and none of these use-cases require smart contracts and definitely it depends on definition of smart contract. However, someone correct me if i am wrong.

BNB and Ethereum are completely different coins, but they have a very similar community. The supporters of these two coins are usually very open to other projects in the cryptocurrency industry.
If BNB goes beyond ethereum in the future, that does not mean that BNB is a “better” crypto, and that Ethereum is a “worse” crypto.
Bnb and Eth are different cryptocurrency, with different goals, but with an open community to work together to help the entire crypto economy develop.
And these two altcoins have different functions and uses, so, it is very difficult for BnB to replace ethereum functions and uses in the cryptocurency world.

haha this would never happen man, BnB is a different coin all together, made for a different purpose.
BnB will be really good for their dex, for tokens to speculate on. Eth is for building a decentralized internet all together the way i see it
Each has their own place, so if BnB overtook eth in price, nothing would happen imo

This is very likely to happen since Binance coin is now the most hype coin in the entire altcoins market. People are even buying Binance coin more than Ethereum. If I may ask, please how is buying Ethereum these days? There are very few people that are buying Ethereum in the name of investment these days. In time, Binance coin will overtake Ethereum in the future.

Binance investment fund can completely pump BNB to very high prices because as I know, Binance is one of the leading financial exchanges and overcoming ETH is only a matter of time. I think BNB is being considered the best option in this market because this coin has so many different utilities and greatly reduces transaction fees.

This year I will still be more patient with BNB because this coin has brought a lot of profits for me. Beside, I can also join the IEO that they propose because these are usually very good projects.

but this is not about smart contracts but overtaking one coin of another in terms of circulating supply and Value as well.
so i think there is a chance that Binance(BNB) will took over ethereum(ETH)position as number 2 crypto currency next to bitcoin.
we have seen the growing exchange of Binance while ethereum is continuously losing supporters,yeah the price is stable but the usage from the ICO has already gone and it wont take long before this finally happen that BNB will overtake ETH
we have same stand because ETH was already being hated for the abused did by many ICO in past and until now.

so the answer is yes Binance will eat Ethereum soon

Once Binance stays in control they have the power to manipulate the market, they already hold one of the biggest exchange in the market, so whatever they say has an influence to the people. If you notice, they also have their decentralized exchange, build their own chain and for sure more improvement to come, they are a definition of a project that remains stable regardless of the market situation, and one proof to that is when they reach an ATH this year where we thought its not possible.

BNB has the back support of Binance. That makes lot of people trust on it but, ETH has achieve the place without the golden spoon in mouth. Both coins are great I do not think it is fair comparing them.

Binance Coin (BNB) is a coin that is predicted to replace Ethereum, as we know the growth of BNB is fairly calculated very fast
in my opinion. But Ethereum has a large community that is very difficult for BNB to match. Therefore from CMC ETH ranking is
still number 2, which means there are still many investors who entrust their money to be invested in ETH. Still quite heavy for
BNB overtakes ETH. But in 5 years who knows BNB can overtakes ETH.

This is not true at all.. Ethereums 2.0 update will soon be coming out and lots of people are investing in Ethereum because of that. Just because the price is low in a somewhat down market does not mean people aren't investing in it. With staking coming relatively soon, there's very good reason to buy and hold onto Ethereum and people will be buying it up soon enough.

BNB will not be able to overtake ETH, because the growth of BNB was due to the popularity of IEO, and at the moment the popularity of IEO has decreased and therefore BNB is not so promising

What about the growth of the exchange? BNB was already a profitable coin even before the IEO, so you can't say that it only rely on IEO.

Maybe there will be more development the team is cooking right now and we might see a pump once that is going to be a success, if you trust the team, you will look on the overall value of the project, and not just on IEO only, and with that said, I believe it could overtake ETH.

You're right . Each coin has different values and different ways of development so it is not possible to compare these two coins in the most specific way. In my opinion, Ethereum is a coin that is heavily dependent on technology and this is also where there are many smart contracts so this coin will definitely increase in the near future. Beside , BNB has many benefits on transaction fees and is supported by Binance so this coin is very valuable in making a profit.

Anyway, both are the favorite choice of many investors and I fully believe in the development of these two coins. You can choose both for long-term holding if you like because if the market grows then two coins will surely help you earn high profits.

Yes, we can't say the growth that has taken place with Binance Coin is the impact of IEO alone. The launch of more IEO over the Binance launchpad helped with a higher level of growth when the entire market was experiencing a bearish trend. Ethereum on the other side is strong on its functional platform serving as the ground for development. Both are entirely different and I don't think Binance will overtake ethereum.

I strongly agree with the opinion you have said, that the two coins are very good both BNB and ETH and it is not appropriate to compare. but I am still very sure, it still needs enough time for BNB to replace ETH or to be able to match. because ETH is the same as bitcoin, it has become a benchmark as a comparison for other coins.

I think that is unlikely to happen, ETH and BNB are two different types. ETH's reputation as a large crypto will not simply let BNB take over ETH, maybe lovers and investors of ETH will not be quiet either. BNB is currently at the top, BNB rate is very good and stable, while tokens / coins based on BNB are also stable, but don't forget why BNB is like that, everyone already knows because this BNB is an exchanger, it's clear that tokens are definitely there will be stable considering BNB's reputation and position as a major exchanger has the highest rank. But what will happen if BNB declines reputation and ranking in terms of position exchangers, this will certainly have a serious impact on tokens / coins using the BNB platform.
Now ETH is ETH the same as BNB? ETH stands alone, as a single fighter in the world of crypto where its existence is still clear and still shows its fangs as the strongest competitor to crypto.

Although BNB has been predicted to replace ETH but that's just a subjective perspective of people who are too trusting in the exchange behind this coin, the result after many years is still very clear, eth may decline, bnb can go up but overcoming is still impossible, the distance never changes too big, eth is still a more widespread and influential coin while bnb is still focusing on a relative area. And these features have started to appear since birth, it has been fixed, which makes eth very stable and limits a lot of competitors such as bnb.

Taking into account their current market caps BNB will have to see a growth of 600% and ethereum will have to remain where it is, do you think that is likely? At the same time you are assuming that binance is going to be around and still be the biggest exchange in this market, and while it may seem unthinkable that binance is going to lose its privileged position we have seen many exchanges disappearing in the past and I do not see why this could not happen to binance.
