Topic: What is the most possible Ethereum competitor? - page 12. (Read 1636 times)

It will most probably be NEO. All others look thrash!

I think Ripple is not far behind and in fact, it doesn't pose as a threat to Eth only, but Bitcoin as well since banks will be supporting Ripple for daily transactions which will eventually make it more popular and in-demand.

There are a lof of coin that can be competitor of ethereum, like ripple ,litecoin, neo ,waves etc but I am always on the ethereum because I believe on it and I know this is a potential coin. Soon the price of eth will increase a lot.

I don't think ripple will be a very strong or direct competitor to eth simply because it's Chinese and backed by the banks.

People see ETH as a more international coin with better tech and generally don't trust banks so.

Lite coin ,ripple

It depends on the feature that you  want to compare but in terms of Smart Contracts Waves is already there. NEO is also one of the threat and Stratis is two step behind and there are more that is under development.

I am for EOS.

Long-term it's probably Cardano. I still can't believe that this is a top 5 coin already - it is so early in development. I have a small amount, but would like to have more.
However I would not give up on Ethereum - this is still the number one in its class, and is likely to remain so at least in the medium term.

Neo, ICON, Qtum, Neblio

in that order

At Market now there is a lot of coins that can compete with ETH and eventually we will see who it will be, and just to put forward in the absence of any sense

I'd say NEO and Neblio.

I think BCH is a competitor who almost beat Ethereum even though Ripple shifts BCH position in cryptocurrency, but if looking at the price and future i choose BCH as my third coin after Bitcoin and Ethereum. In addition BCH also gives almost the same advantages as ETH.
In March i plan to invest some of my money into BCH.
Disappointed or Lucky i will accept it as a risk.

Considering the functional nature of ETH as a way to build Dapps, establish smart contracts, and as a platform for other offerings.
These are the platforms that seem to be its closest competitors,

NEO - Origins in China, earlier known as Antshares, NEO is the biggest 'Functional' platform. It already hosted some successful ICO's lately.

Waves - This is another platform, smaller than NEO, but is 'Functional' as well, its hosted some ICOs's as well recently.

EOS - This is a challenger; The promotor is a veteran of Bitshares & steemit , They have good funding and have also put out a testnet sometime in december if I'm not wrong. This will be good to watch.

ADA- Cardano - This is a new challenger Based in Japan. Not a lot of work has been completed, nor do they have a 'Functional' platform as of yet. There has been some news of its blockchain to be used for an educational credential usecase (being developed) by some Universities in Greece. They just have a wallet published (reviews say its a bit buggy atm) BUT they seem to be developing a very robust platform that is privacy AND regulator friendly (goodness knows what that may mean) BUT the promoter seems to have a lot of street cred, he contributed to the ETH project and Bitshares as well if I'm not mistaken.

Looking forward to hearing about other promising platforms.

I share your opinion here. I strongly believe that Stellar Lumens and Ripple are powerful contenders to Ethereum due to reasons like big community support, great developer teams and great real world use cases. Along with these coins, I feel that NEO and Waves have huge potential and could potentially challenge Ethereum in the future due to reasons like excellent platforms and great developer team.

I feel that Litecoin and Dashcoin also are possible contenders to Ethereum while Bitcoin Cash is another contender which many people tend to overlook due to the controversies surrounding it.

today I'm still not see closed competitor for Ethereum.
this coin still will go to the moon with if they make development and reduce the GAS fee.
but if this ICO (CREDITS) can made their concept to build a fast transaction (1.000.000x speed) on Blockchain,
its not possible if them can compete with the Ethereum.

Well as far as I know EOS is the biggest competitor to ETH. The only thing is that EOS has yet to launch a fully functional public blockchain (test net already launched), and that's why a bit under the radar for now. But when launched it is sure to give a shock to ETH as EOS can process thousands of transactions per second and is built by the same man (Dan Larimer) who built Steem and Bitshares. I think EOS can be one of the fastest growing project this year.

according to me it is neo. new icos have started using the neo blockchain to develop their token due to clogged blockchain of ethereum and we have witnessed the recent growth of neo to 140+ $..

I think stellar and ripple will be Ethereum competitors. They have good fundamental. They make deals to several banks and fintech.
They also have good community. So, stellar and ripple is good competitors for Ethereum

I think their biggest competitor is neo or ada. Neo is the bigger one because they also have several icos running on their platform while ada isn't there yet. People claim neo as chinese ethereum but in the future i can see them going toes to toes against ethereum in this space.

I am very interested in Tezos and EOS. While Tezos has had it's share of drama and EOS has raised a stupid $1 billion dollars, I think the next stage of on chain governance could be very interesting. Also because both projects have such vast amounts of capital to reinvest in projects on their platforms, I believe this will give developers a pretty strong incentive to switch.
