Ethereum would have been the number one coin but it would not have been as dominant as bitcoin.
The principles behind Bitcoin and Ethereum are much different so are their intentions.
I don't wanted to say it but the crypto market would have been much more advanced and competitive if satoshi had invented Ethereum inspite of Bitcoin.

Yeah if that would have been the case Eth would have easily been the king of all the coins but still i think eth is number one choice of serious investors and holders and pitential upside for eth is still huge.
despite what you think bitcoin is not far far ahead because of it being first, it is ahead because it is an excellent decentralized currency that is doing exactly that it was meant to do. not to mention that bitcoin wasn't even the first cryptocurrency! there were some other projects that came before bitcoin which didn't even reach production and usage let alone grow because they were flawed.
besides Satoshi would have never created a coin like ethereum because he had a vision and certain principles that ethereum does not have. principles such as decentralization and deflationary currency which ETH with its huge premine and ICO and unlimited supply and roll backed blockchain can never have.
in fact i am almost certain that if a coin like ETH were created before bitcoin, it would have died within 2-3 months and would have never even reached a value to want to grow. the fact that it has grown this much so far is thanks to bitcoin and the people who come in for BTC and are fooled into investing in ETH.

This is just a thought ,what would have happened if the first crypto coin from satoshi was ethereum ?
No. The first coin would have been still (a) Bitcoin, but it would have had smart contracts.
What would have happened then? Well, the code would have been cleaner and better maintained, some things would have been thought better so certain token hacks would have not been happening, no ETH/ETC split also... all in all possibly the coin price would have been bigger. But Bitcoin also deserves a much higher price and still doesn't have it.
I can't imagine people playing the kitty game on main net though
On the other hand, Bitcoin has counterparty, which is not used as much as it could, Bitcoin allows side chains and colored coins... somehow not as attractive for the community as playing with Ethereum tokens. So who knows...
However, no use to dream Science Fiction. The history is written.
This is just a thought ,what would have happened if the first crypto coin from satoshi was ethereum ? I'm sure ETH will be the most favoured digital currency just like bitcoin is today.
And ETH would have been the bullrun driver and many altcoins will always favour since ETH is the key ,just imagine if ETH is 11,000$ ? Many altcoins would have been exploding in value presently
This thread should be on the speculation section, but you have known the answer to your question. But remember if that happens and ethereum will have the same configuration as bitcoin and ethereum have not had a smartcontract that already used by so many platforms right now And ETH would have been the bullrun driver and many altcoins will always favour since ETH is the key ,just imagine if ETH is 11,000$ ? Many altcoins would have been exploding in value presently
