Crypto battle. What will happen to Bitcoin when Ethereum over takes it?

in cryptocurrency •  7 years ago  (edited)

What do you think will happen to Bitcoin after Ethereum surpasses it? My thoughts are that after if Eth increases in value and ends up surpassing Btc then Btc will drop in value. This may only happen for a short amount of time but it may drop a lot in value, this would be a big blow to btc. Btc may drop in value even more if other Altcoins come into play, or it's value will increase very slowly. Bitcoin will stay strong in cryptocurrency market without a doubt, but how will it play out against others?

Even tho I'm still not 100% sure ETH will go above BTC, I must admit it did cross my mind.
If that were to happen BTC would probably stabilise to it's price at that point in time, followed by a slow decrease in value, but only until the next big pump&dump.

It is a little daunting sometimes right? Yes possibly.

I stated on my live stream that ETH could overtake BTC in marketcap, as long as ETH keeps growing and BTC stabilizes. It's only a matter of time. ETH price could get to $1000 by end of year.

ETH has been growing rapidly. Yes, definitely.

ETH is ONLY 11.9 Billion marketcap away from catching up to BTC

Sorry it's actually 8.9 Billion away

Simple: there will be people holding Bitcoin and people holding Ethereum. The flipping is a human construct. It does not exist.
