Best competitors to Ethereum?

[StGermain]

Probably the best competitors at the moment are NEO and XEM. IOTA and Raiblocks play on a different ground and they're not that many coins out there that allow smart Contracting  on a blockchain.

Which are the best competitors to Ethereum, and why do you think so?

(I know on top of my head that Cardano and IOTA try to challenge Ethereum,
although they still haven't proved much from my understanding?)

I got excited when I read the title of your topic but it crashed when after I read the whole content. Because the cryptos that you mention that can challenge eth according to you have not yet anything that can convince the people.

I think Neo has a really good potential to be a good competitor of the ethereum, because I think the demand for it is increasing gradually. Also, I think IOTA, Stellar and Litecoin are giving hope for the future to be good competitors of the ethereum.

I think Ethereum has a lot of competitors like NEO, EOS, Cardona, NEM and many others, but none are close to Ethereum, Ethereum being the most powerful platform for ICO and they have a lot of projects who use their smart contract. NEO has less than ten ICO on its platform and NEM less than five. Ethereum is like Bitcoin for the smart contract because it is the first of it kind.

I think now Ethereum has no competitors. All his "competitors" are just imitators (Yes, even NEO). Ethereum is the best at the moment.

[BountyLord]

I think that at the moment Ethereum has not any competitors. I don't know any projects based on Cardano for example. Number of Neo projects and volume of transactions is low.

I think that we don't know anything about promplems of other blockchains due lack of activity.

Ethereum is a powerful platform and a unique project. The price of ethereum will be much higher.Bitcoin, Ripple, Cardano, Ethereum Classic, Vechain, KUcoin Shares. NEO  XLM all those are higly potential .no one knows what will happen in future.

WAVES is cool, but it tends to attract the wrong type of ICO really. Many scam or pseudoscam projects are using waves because it is a no brainer and has a exchange inside.

Don't think the top 6 or 7 CC's will change for the seeable future.

I believe that the real competitor of Ethereum is NEO. It is much more scalable than Ethereum . It can process more transactions at once, significantly reducing wait times for its users.  Also, NEO supports multiple programming languages. While Ethereum’s language is similar to popular ones like JavaScript, it still requires users to learn a new language for programming in the network. NEO wants to prevent any random hard forks like the Ethereum/Ethereum classic debacle, so it is coded to avoid this entirely. While soft forks are still possible, hard forks are not.

NEO, Vechain, Populous and ICON is the competitors for Ethereum right now. All that coins wants try lead the market.
Many people said ICON is the first competitors after the Ethereum. The sequence will bitcoin, ethereum and ICON. But that's all is prediction, no one knows what will happen in future.

thats the perfect answer to this question,since i believe that this post must be on the speculation  discussion.because it only deserve speculative responses..even if we givour own coins to follow ethereum still future will tell what must it be..

Maybe its NEO or NANO because they are the two platforms that mostle uses by new comers

[gantez]

NEO or XLM could catch ETH too - they can be really good basement for ICOs and exchanges. 2018 is year of ICOs and whose platform will be the strongest we will see.

Neo don't look strong for me and the 2018 being hyped as the year for icos might not be achieved because of the fud on icos from the social networks

[Inu.Guren]

for now i see the candidate for ethereum rival is like a IOTA, Bitcoin cash hardfork, Zcash, waves and Litecoin, but for waves the value for myself is down, Now the real rival for ethereum is Bitcoincash, LTC and IOTA

[Ostonian]

One of the most promising candidates for the Ethereum title is QTUM, a hybrid crypto currency technology that takes the best attributes of bitcoin and Ethereum, and blends them together. 
NEO is what people like to call "Chinese Ethereum", and not without reason.  First, they are very similar, and display their own accounts of decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contracts. They are both open source, but while Ethereum is supported by a democratic developer base, NEO has the full support of the Chinese government. This made him popular both domestically and abroad, as well as for his unique value proposition.

If there is one, it is Hashgraph. However, Hashgraph decides to support Ethereum Virtual Machine. That means, they are on the same boat in some sense.

IOTA is completely different from Ethereum. The real competitor to Ethereum is NEO. Currently it is the no.1 coin in China. And with its low market cap in comparison to Ethereum it is a better coin to invest in as it will give more returns on your investment and is a completely safe bet.

Eos,
Cardano,
Qtum
Neo
ETC,
Lisk

NEO is the only serious contender to ETH. It offers a more centralised model, but that makes a better governance and a quicker development in my view.

I think Ethereum has a lot of competitors like EOS، STEEM، Binance Coin they are Strong currencies will be in the lead and they are good competitors for the etherium and their prices will rise in the future and now is a good buy for them should take advantage of this opportunity.

[weav]

I would keep an eye on Neo and xlm , they already have ico's and projects running on their platform. But eth will have the upper hand the next couple of years just because they were the first.

[Tim2412]

there are a most popular  lists of competitors to Ethereum consist of:  Ethereum Classic ETC,  Lisk, Waves,  Stratis, EOS)))

I think NEO has massive potential to compete ETH in upcoming years.NEO is basically Chines ETH it supports Smart Contract.Its development team is very experienced and well versed with Block chain.I think NEO right now is undervalued and investment in NEO is highly beneficial and above all holding NEO for long term is important at all.Suppose after 2 years the price of NEO touching the moon,then those who invested now would be very rich.In future it would come out with more unique technology.Many ICO using NEO channel to distribute their payouts.NEO community is increasing.
