Which one is the best cryptocurrency next to bitcoin?

That would have to be Ethereum. Followed by Litecoin, Monero and Ripple.As I want to say this digital currency is predicted to
surpass Bitcoin and may be the cryptocurrency of the future.It is launched in 2015, Ethereum is a decentralized software platform that enables Smart Contracts and Distributed Applications (ĐApps) to be built and run without any downtime, fraud, control or interference from a third party.The applications on Ethereum are run on its platform-specific cryptographic token, ether. Ether is like a vehicle for moving around on the Ethereum platform, and is sought by mostly developers looking to develop and run applications inside Ethereum.

Wrong forum. This is for Bitcoin discussions, not altcoin discussions.

Ethereum is a pretty good cryptocurrency. I've watched it in the past days and its price remained stable even when bitcoin dropped a lot

That's because of all the new projects/tokens launching on the Ethereum blockchain. Until lightning network comes out for Bitcoin, the focus of developers will be on Ethereum instead. I was recently in an ICO where they only accepted payment in ethereum and not anything else including bitcoin.

depends on criteria you chose. For swift cheap transactions litecoin is really cool. Eth and nem are good for smart contracts. then you have new companies and tokens that target specific industry segments. a lot to choose from

in terms of blockchain, they said..
Bitcoin is Blockchain 1.0
Ethereum was called Blockchain 2.0
and they are seing Arcblock as the Blockchain 3.0

or you could differenciate it in many ways, such as price, supplies, etc..

It would be necessary to define what you understand by "best cryptocurrency". I believe that each one has a personal list of those that he considers the best cryptos according to his own analysis and his expectations. In fact, there are those who consider even Dogecoin a currency more efficient than bitcoin, while others despise it. Personally, I think there are more than a hundred altcoins better than bitcoin, starting with ethereum.

I would say that ethereum would be the choice of most of the people as its price is low as well as its price increasing percentage is high.

Some of the new investors would even say as ripple but they fail to note that only its marketcap has increased high due to banks using it for transactions and actually its price has not increased that much.

Agree totally with XRP but I expect it to 2 x in the next few months once it recovers.  Personally, I like Powr, I just like the concept and this coin has a lot of growth potential.

In answer to OP, ETH in my opinion is the 2nd biggest and seems to have less limitations compared to BTC.

I think for me the best cryptocurrency next to bitcoin is ethereum and litecoin. I have my ethereum too. if you will study the price of ethereum you can see also that it started with very cheap price. even last dec it was only 450 and became 980 somehing now. it went to like 1400 also on beginning of january vut it goes down a bit . but it is still on its high price. litecoin too I think it is also good to invest in that coin.
