With a market capitalization of around $40 billion, ethereum is now called the “second-most-popular cryptocurrency” and although there were worries around the $280 mln Parity wallet mischief in early November, where a user of Ethereum’s Parity wallet froze $280 million worth of ETH, the price momentum and stability seem to be increasingly positive.

With Bitcoin surpassing the $8,000 price point, it seems that the two cryptocurrencies are ahead of their “competition”. With market caps account for more than 65% of the total market cap of all existing cryptocurrencies (around $200 billion), ETH and BTC seem “unbeatable”.
