LOL
you think this is the first "flippening"? it won't be the last of them either.
their joy ended as soon as ethereum failed to sustain an increased traffic and the network went down. the week when all exchanges disabled all ethereum and ethereum related altcion wallets, everyone knew the truth.

It's was major hype and it got them close..

They may get another shot next year, but that will need the network to be much more stable and scaleable. Bitcoin network outperformed the ethereum network and we all know the slow beat bitcoin is in its current form.

I'll be buying more of both when the time arises, I enjoy adding fuel to the "bubble's" fire.

I just think when people were screaming "Flippening" this time around it was a perfect example of over-exhuberence caused by a very fast rise.
 Irrational emotions made everyone get all excited inside about driving an Ethereum-bought Lambo and didn't have much ground in actuality. Even if it does have a bigger marketcap, it won't last long this early in the game. We're in a bubble though so anything can happen.

It's just like Ripple. You can't tell me Ripple is suddenly relevant again after all these years? The vast majority of the coins are "locked up", out of the coins that ARE in circulation, how many of them just sit there? I can't think of any worse, more faked trading on a coin than that. A bank wouldn't even use Ripple, they'd use the technology but not the actual Ripple system. Why pay the fees & relinquish control to internet trolls when they can control the whole network and name it WellsFargoCoin?

When is the Ripple flippening coming? Can we call it the "Rippling'?  Grin Roll Eyes

I'm sure we will be right back to square #1 next time bitcoin decides to make a run for 3k+ and talking flippening again. I own both so I have skin in both games, I just enjoy a good gladiator show.

"the flippening" of this year was like the squeezing the last drops out of an already empty toothpaste tube thingy. they did all they could.

- they lied about big corporations being involved in it
- they lied about SEC wanting to approve their ETF
- they lied about being able to scale better than bitcoin
- they lied about being a good platform for smart contracts
- they lied about being cheap for transactions and contracts
- and a lot more

these came out one after another, each one big and widespread all over the media. and finally the reality hit. and the dumps began as the whales started enjoying their free profit and started shorting the shit out of it.

lol they are not dropping anymore, ETH zcash and a bunch of other are very solid, there are also other small coins that are increasing, so bitcoin is not going to sink everythign else, actually now it's the time to dump your bitcoin before the split and buy altcoin, so you have a chance to have big profit because everyone will do the same

Either way, it is reassuring to see the best global store of value known by all has been and will always be Bitcoin. Large, Secure, and In charge, Honest, Open, and Free, protected by consensus.

There's nothing better than flippening for a crypto trader. Amen to all the past and upcoming flippenings.
