Potentially, this coin has a strong position to be the next bitcoin in the future. I base my judgement on two factors.
1. MARKETCAP - ETH has a huge marketcap, many investors could join and use the blockchain. Because of the marketcap millions of investors could invest to this coin
2. Usefullness - we all know that the eth platform was use by so many project and they are using ethereum as the main coin in exchange their token.
The more active the coin the bigger the chances to be on the top in the future because demand for it will always be there.
