Since Bitcoin launched in 2009, it has been the leading cryptocurrency on the market, with others having virtually no chance of overtaking it.
One of its main advantages is the fact that it is the first cryptocurrency ever created.
However, with more than a decade in the past, analysts believe that Bitcoin might not stay in the number one spot for much longer.
If there is one cryptocurrency on the market that can dethrone Bitcoin due to its advanced network and cutting edge features, it is Ethereum.
Additionally, there are also interesting things happening in the meme coin universe with Tamadoge threatening to take down Dogecoin and Shiba Inu.
Bitcoin stalls as Ethereum continues to hit milestones
Starting August 24theBitcoin is still stuck at the $21,500 mark and struggling to establish any kind of bullish momentum.
Many investors awaited Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s speech at the US central bank symposium in the hope that it would generate positive sentiment around the world’s leading cryptocurrency.
However, Powell did not focus too much on cryptocurrencies in his speech, ultimately leaving traders confused as to whether the price of Bitcoin will rise in the coming weeks.
Quick Summary: Bitcoin started this week at a price of $21,509 and has been dancing around this mark for some time now.
On the other hand, Ethereum continues its upward spiral in recent days.
The price of Ethereum saw a 5% surge this week due to the official announcement that the long-awaited merger will take place somewhere between 10the – twentythe of September
Although some analysts seem confident that this merger will not generate huge profits immediately, it seems imminent that it will positively influence the long-term price of ETH.
What are the advantages of Ethereum over Bitcoin?
For as long as we can remember, Ethereum has always been the runner-up to Bitcoin in terms of the largest crypto based on market cap.
However, with Bitcoin struggling to establish new uptrends, Ethereum now has a better chance than ever to dethrone the leading coin.
This week, Ethereum hit a new two-month high and outperformed BTC in almost every aspect. One of the main causes of this was the final test of the ETH upgrade.
Ethereum 2.0, the upgrade that will transform the network from a PoW (proof-of-work) model to a PoS (proof-of-stake), will be released in mid-September.
As a reminder, the proof of stake model is used for transaction validation through randomly chosen verifiers.
This is the opposite of the PoW model which incorporates a specific validation technique to confirm transactions (Bitcoin still uses this model).
By transferring to the PoS model, Ethereum will gain an advantage over Bitcoin as this system is much more efficient, affordable and faster compared to PoW.
Furthermore, Ethereum is also the largest smart contract platform in the world and has the largest number of DApps built on its network in the crypto industry.
Lastly, investors are beginning to appreciate the fact that the information of who is behind Ethereum is completely transparent (Vitalik Buterin and Gavin Wood), while the founder of Bitcoin is still unknown.
Tamadoge Could Be The Next Leader Of The Meme Coin Universe
Ethereum isn’t the only cryptocurrency ‘for blood’ these days: Tamadoge is looking to take over the meme coin universe.
For weeks now, Tamadoge has been hitting new milestones, with its pre-sale attracting a host of new investors every day. He has also been considered one of the The best cryptocurrencies to buy on Reddit.
Due to its incredible tokenomics and real-world utility, it is no exaggeration to say that it could dethrone Dogecoin and Shiba Inu as the leading meme coin in the coming months.
In short, Tamadoge is a Doge-inspired meme coin that comes with utility and combines Metaverse, P2E, and NFT technology.
TAMA is the platform’s native governance token and is the primary currency for in-game transactions, wagering, and reward distribution.
