Finally ETH is back at no. 2 spot

[stadus]

If talking about position 2 in the coinmarketcap, at present, XRP is again the best coin number 2. well, maybe the development of ETH has begun to decline

The development still continue but they postponed the hard fork that's why the hype just stopped.
Accordingly, this will again start to rise and it's hard to hype right now and any position changes is not positive since we are not seeing
a great overall market movement. I don't care now if XRP is the no. 2 since I only see there's a real competition when market is consistent green.

This could be the beginning of the new run, bye XRP, have you enjoyed your stay?

Welcome back Ethereum

Yes, now Ethereum is going through hard times due to many circumstances. But in any case, the price of the coin remains at a minimum level - now there is a great opportunity for a bargain. Although I believe that in the coming months, XRP will be able to maintain its second position among the cryptocurrencies.

Beginning in January 2019, Eth had a price that recovered again, and returned to the second position in the coinmarketcap. it might be caused because the news about hardfork. but, now the ETH price is back weakening, and is back down from position 2. well, but I think it's only a matter of time until ETH has a high price, and returns to position 2 again.

[aragom]

I wouldn't be too confident and staying at number 2. I do prefer to see ethereum above the centralised ripple but i remember the last ripple pump in which it doubled in a matter of weeks and flew past ethereum. Hopefully this constatinople fork will deliver better TPS and bring more useful dapps to the platform

place of ethereum is 2nd, in this market.
last year bch made a move like that. now xrp made.
but eth always will come back his place

[PanGiMoon]

Soon he will fall even lower, now the stellar over it is trying very hard, and there maybe Cardano will support the initiative of breaking into top positions. So developers have something to think about.

No doubt other projects are coming up with innovative techs and the same way the ETH developers are putting all they've got to make the blockchain more better and effective. The spot will be for the survival of the fittest. I still believe ETH is still the king of altcoins. It is just a matter of time and solid developmental implementation for it to retain the 2nd spot.

[michellee]

Ripple come back to the second position at CMC and beat ethereum again. The gap of the marketcap is too big, and I am not sure that ethereum can beat ripple again. If ethereum wants to beat ripple, then they need time before the position will change again and I don't think that it will happen in the short time. Meanwhile, Litecoin and TRON still compete for each other, and I wonder what will happen later because if Litecoin replaces by TRON, then it will be interesting to see what will happen in the market.

[kolonel_x]

You're right.  Finally it happened and we began to watch Ethereum in second position.  I very much hope that Eth will continue to grow!

there will still be a very sharp decline, prepare to fall and maybe after that it will take a long time to start recovering. we all don't want to be in this position if we still hold lots of tokens

Welcome back Ethereum

Today Ripple again in second place, but the gap between Ripple and Ethereum is small. I'm sure the field "Constantinople" Ethereum very quickly picks up capitalization and its separation to be increased significantly. I believe that Ethereum deserves the second place in the cryptocurrency market.

The thread was created almost a month ago, by that time the price of ethereum gave a sudden pump and reached the second position. Thought that the price will continue to grow, but to the expectation the growth didn't sustain for a long time. All of the sudden once again the price started to move downwards and came back to the third place. Now it sits firmly on the third place without moving up.

It is amazing how the market competes, even ETH have its strong support but still it can't move as it shown before. For now, Ripple still on the move over ETH and it could possible for ETH to surpass Ripple if Bitcoin pump again. But for now, no hypes shows and we could expect that Ripple still on its place today until we ended this month.

[mdzahed134]

Yay

Ethereum does deserve the #2 spot tho, it has great tech, great use case of DAPP with blockchain and etc
Not saying that Ripple is bad but i feel that Ethereum stand out more

Actually we can't say that which coin deserve or not. It is decide market demand in different times when market going down and up situation. Ethereum deserve second stage in coinmarketcap i agree with your point but Ripple is high stability from Ethereum that's why still XRP in second position.

The deserving factor are still in the position of the value not in the position of order people don't want the currency to be in number one position but they want the investment to be more valuable this will decide the position of the currency

I can also see that it wasn't moving up for now, and I think it was just  normalising the current bearish market. The potential that this will be back to no. 2 is always there, so we need to buy more eth and add to our holding because if the market recovers back we will be selling our profit soon. That's an expectation to ponder and much better to think on good scenario rather than speculating negative thoughts. Just trust eth and hold your remaining balance while price still on the way to pumps in tje the market.

I think the update if actually done well will bring so serious opportunity to seal the number 2 mark but for now ETH price improvement is actually reluctant on its growth hope it just doesnt go too down

Update is not done yet, it's schedule in the next month, it was supposed to be January but was postponed FYI.

[Rooster101]

Ethereum should continue to accelerate its price to strengthened its grip as a second ranked cryptotocurrency because XRP is still a big threat. The postponed ethereum hardfork will proceed this month according to a report and this update may also help boost the price of the ethereum further. With another update next year, ethereum will continue to maintain its current position for many months before xrp or other altcoins overtake it again.

The team still announced that Constantinople should be updated at the end of February, and I hope that we will still see positive changes and scaling up the ethereum network.

ETH will continue to grow in coming months and years and this is the reason it is said that best time to buy at such prices is now before the prices shoot and it becomes super expensive later on. Keep a spare amount every month and keep investing in best crypto coins now.

I'm hoping the growth will continue, even a small spike is already significant to us, price increase of 10% in just less that a week is already
good but we should see this consistent, otherwise it will only again disappoint us.
We have big target this year, and personally I like ETH to again reach 4 digits again, even not reaching a new ATH, but recovery is more than enough.

Keep a spare amount every month and keep investing in best crypto coins now.

Sounds a great plan, you are like investing in a high risk investment but with huge potential.
If the trend will be followed, we can make a good ROI doing this method.
