Paradigm shift from BTC to ETH

[highperspective]

To be very clear, it is a theory I am getting fond of without knowing whether I believe it or not, yet. BUT, it is always important to have a lot of scenarios in mind!
I am judging BTC totally out, but I could imagine, that we do not see BTC at the ATH levels again and that it will consolidate anywhere between the current price and the ATH at some point. After this, we will see ETH take over as the dominant coin in the crypto-space.

During such a potential, paradigm shift it will spread a lot of fear because of an unstable BTC price. But on the other side, people will again be more calm, when the new state of crypto (ETH as leader) will become normal.

Again, this is ONLY a theory (inspired by others theories) and I am not judging BTC totally out. Please, come with both pros and cons for this if you have opinions on the matter.

You have to factor in the implementation of lightning network, which is supposed to address a lot of the problems that bitcoin has right now. If the scalability issues of bitcoin addressed, there is no reason for bitcoin not to take off once again. Also consider the fact that BTC is the poster child of all cryptocoins, and the importance of this in the minds of the people, I think that bitcoin will always remain above ETH.

Ethereum is technically ahead of Bitcoin. Bitcoin have another problem. Even the good upgrades are possible it is hard to make them.
On reason is that everything is need to be backed up with miners and others or upgrade will fail.
To much money and interest is stressing Bitcoin.
