ETH has been on a long uptrend compared to BTC lately.
So I'd say ETH will reach 1 trillion first.
The ETH network is so huge, with all the tokens and whatnot.
There's always going to be a demand for ETH. Think about it.
More and more addresses will have ETH on them. And ETH is limited.
Topic: First to reach 1 Trillion $ (Read 2605 times)
honestly i believe that it will be an alt coin that surpasses bitcoin that reaches 1 trillion first, Ethereum maybe?
IMO it will be either bitcoin or Ethereum. Who passes a trillion first is hard to guess but I think Ethereum is biggest in the end of 2018. Maybe Ripple is a competitor too.
You have to ask yourself what is the point of $1 trillion dollars sitting in a token that is basically not used for anything yet.
I would love to proved wrong but i still don't see the point of all those smart contract things.
On the other hand I do see $1 trillion marketcap possible in bitcoin because simply people will want to hold money outside of conventional assets.
But ETH? I dont see how it can reach $1 trillion outside of a massive bubble or if smart contracts in ETH definitely proven as viable and useful.

I think it would be some altcoin, meybe even ETH. Bitcoin is getting less popular, we can see that more and more people, investing money in altcoins. We will see in the nearest future Shocked
It sounds good to hear, but in near future it is impossible to reach $ 1 Trillion market capital in crypto world. if it happens in crypto world that would definitely Bitcoin only.
None at this rate. But seriously one individual will take a long time before it hits 1 trillion. It we are lucky we might hit 1 trillion for the entire market this year. But again hard to tell at this rate what can happen.
You never know, because this market is new, which has never happened before, a lot of new things has right to be considered.

100% agreed. Bitcoin is the only candidate for such an enormous market cap. Also, I think it will be super-good for our community if just the whole crypto-market cap will be equal of 1 trillion$ - not a single coin.
i dont think so bitcoin will reach as per apple or google share because as we see the value of BTC it is going down and a little increase. So there will be negative effect on BTC because of many reason. it can be political or government regulation. If we see the day before yesterday news apple is going on exposure again. Now they will be assembling iphone in india instead of china.
Saudi Aramco
You must be kidding 😀. I know Saudi Aramco but, it has a long way to go in order to achieve 1 trillion.
It will be bitcoin , ether has nothing people are simply trying to increase its price i said before also ether was not meant for ico ico are nothing but scam they dont make any difference and ether is simply helping ico if people start focusing on real use of ether it can surely surpass
First to reach 1 Trillion $? It is not a thing that can be predicted it may be an altcoin or bitcoin anything can happen.
I think as people make money off altcoins they will build their asset wealth with bitcoin. So they make money frim other coins and tokens but use that to buy more bitcoin. This will make bitcoin worth the most out of all assets by a long shot.
Whatever you choose , first one will be always Government and maybe you think that nothing is linked to them , you are wrong!
I was going to create a topic with the exact same question when I saw this one already existed.
Here is my take: it will be neither BTC nor ETH. I think EOS is poised to reach the top first.

It is indeed far more impossible to reach that amount but to answer your question my bet would still be Bitcoin. I'm not saying Bitcoin will reach that amount though but if ever there it'll reach that amount and that is a big "IF" I think it would be bitcoin and not some altcoin.
i'm also with those thaat say bitcoin, it's the biggest one and should be the first to reach 1 trillion, if this will ever be possible for any coin, second chance is to give to ETH, i guess ETH might have a chance to surpass bitcoin marketcap, but i'm not sure, one must also see that ETH have more supply, and will be more easy for it to reach the trillion marketcap
Every new president steals from American's 100% more by printing money so if Trump does the same your 1 trillion will be 1/2 trillion by the new president comes to replace him. If I had to bet I would say Ripple they make their thing sound like ti's a decentralized thing but are in bed with banks so that is who I think can push it to half a trillion first. (today's trillion).
It would be near impossible for Bitcoin to reach $1 Trilliom market cap, then how do you think that an Altcoin would reach it. Bitcoin is used to pay everyday stuff and its market is always expanding, but where can you pay for everyday stuff in ethereum for an example. Altcoins are just investments and they cant really be an accepted currency.
Unfortunately Google or a similar company seems poised to take this before cryptocurrency. I think they'll do it first because our reliance on them, especially Google, is only growing, while most people have hardly heard of cryptocurrency. Eventually crypto might surpass them, but not before they reach the 1$ trillion mark, at least in my eyes.
