1Confirmation: Ethereum market cap may surpass bitcoin in the next five years

Cryptocurrency investor 1confirmation has published its Q2 2024 LP letter, in which founder Nick Tomaino states that Ethereum's market cap will surpass Bitcoin's within the next five years. Bitcoin's market cap is currently four times that of Ethereum, and both will continue to grow, but Ethereum will eventually surpass Bitcoin. Nick Tomaino explained that Bitcoin has a clear narrative (digital gold), and institutions have now accepted that narrative. Ethereum has been the most influential blockchain in the crypto space for the past five years, but little is known about it (outside the circle). Ethereum is scarce, generates revenue, and has practical use cases. With its market cap now significantly smaller than Bitcoin, Wall Street is able to own more. Expect Wall Street to continue buying and selling Ethereum heavily to the world in the coming years.
