+trucidus some interesting insights there. I can see ETH being $1000 by EOY. I just fail to see it toppling Bitcoin. Buterin is both a BTC fanboy and understands game theory ; he knows that Bitcoin is king and Ethereum is queen. If another currency were to rise above Bitcoin, that would set a precedent for the king to be overthrown and thus create instability in the crypto realm. Rest assured that Buterin is not in competition with Bitcoin but working in harmony for the greater good, like a good royal marriage.
