[DaFuture]

You have to ask yourself what is the point of $1 trillion dollars sitting in a token that is basically not used for anything yet.

I would love to proved wrong but i still don't see the point of all those smart contract things.

On the other hand I do see $1 trillion marketcap possible in bitcoin because simply people will want to hold money outside of conventional assets.

But ETH? I dont see how it can reach $1 trillion outside of a massive bubble or if smart contracts in ETH definitely proven as viable and useful.

 It is completely possible but I don't think this will be happening on a timeframe that you are expecting.

Etherium might succeed simply as an alternative to Bitcoin. It has the same ability to store wealth as BTC.
Bitcoin is kinda broken right now and it isn't getting fixed easily.

btc eth or one we have not yet even heard of.

A trillion is rather a big number but I think crypto can do it before apple.

[AleSergio]

I think it would be some altcoin, meybe even ETH. Bitcoin is getting less popular, we can see that more and more people, investing money in altcoins. We will see in the nearest future

[Charloz24]

My bet would be an Altcoin too, so there is a good chance that it could be ETH. If that's the case, then all of us here that is in crypto right now will be milllonaire

Ethereum has more chances than any other altcoin to reach such a great capitalization but I think bitcoin still has more chances. If we stick to current amount of btc and eth respectively, for btc to reach 1 trillion the price has to be a bit more than $60 000 per coin. For ethereum the price should be  $11 000 per coin which seems more realistic although both options are crazy. That's why I'd rather say ripple has best chances, for it just needs the price of $26 per coin.

I agree with you for that point, when cryptocurrency will become mainstream, imagine average Joe that would like to invest. If he has no clue what is Ethereum or Ripple (but have heard about Bitcoin, but it too expensive) he may be tempted to buy the cheaper price.

That is why I think the perfect alt for the future isn't released yet.

I think that bitcoin will reach 1 trillion of $ market worth funds because it is continuisly growing and  it is so interesting so because of that many organisations want to keep bitcoin alive and they see future in paying with bitcoin what is really perfect for everybody in this forum because we will all make a really great profit from that what can save us from bad life ,what without bitcoin cant be but also I think that other altcoin can reach 1 trillion $ worth market cap fund because universe tourism is creating and many things which are more and more expensive so everything is possible.

Nothing says that someone has to purchase a whole Bitcoin. I would say it will be either Bitcoin gets to a Trillion first or it will be an ALT coin (not ETH)... I prefer the ALT coin case because one will be released with real world utility. I think that it is already out there, but people don't know about it because it is 1) not pumped and 2) just finishing up essentially what is a beta period.

NOpe. bitcoin will still the first one to reách trillion first

[Deathmist]

It's safe to say bitcoin tbh

[dissident]

I'll bet everybody in this thread $10,000 each that Apple or Google reach a Trillion dollar market cap before bitcoin or any altcoin does. You game?

Since the OP mentioned other stocks i would say Apple,Google and Amazon are the worthy contenders here for the one trillion cap and i would say Amazon has all the chances to reach that figure in the first place.For bitcoin to reach those valuations it will take a much longer time and it is simply not that easy to reach the trillion dollar evaluation,the imagine the magnitude of the value.

[European Central Bank]

of course it'll be apple or google. there's no doubt in my mind whatsoever and it might be in a few months or next year. that's a weird addition to the equation when it's so obvious.

[Balmain]

Ethereum is a good platform but none of these altcoins can pass Bitcoin, they can't even reach half of Bitcoin size. Bitcoin will be the first 1 trillion dollar marketcap project. When that time comes we can talk about billion dollar Ethereum marketcap though. At the same time it's possible that we have flying cars and colonized people in Mars.

Eh?

ETH his already a more than 20B marketcap and is a little more than 60% BTC marketcap...

How do you assume that Ethereum will be the first coin to reach the trillion dollar valuation,lets assume that by the end of 2017 we could see a couple of hundred tokens created under ETH   ,there must be a burning point right,what will be the N th point when everything starts to crumble. It is well and good when it started and it is still the starting phase,but we will see a burn out phase in the future,just my thought,i might be wrong but i have my strong feeling by the way things are going with ETH and the N number of tokens being created around it.

A trillion is rather a big number but I think crypto can do it before apple.

We are not talking about the entire stock market valuation here,but looking at the valuation of a single stock rather than the entire crypto market which has hundreds of coins and more coins coming out every day. Apple and google are much closer to the trillion valuation ,so either one of the stock will reach that magical figure first.
