Bitcoin was launched in 2009 and Ethereum was launched in 2015. Between 2009 and 2015, a lot of cryptocurrencies were launched, for example, litecoin was launched in 2011, Ripple was launched in 2012, dogecoin was launched in 2013, Monero and Dash were launched in 2014. But how come Ethereum is the world’s number two cryptocurrencies in terms of popularity and market cap? What makes Ethereum so special?
Litecoin is an early bitcoin spin-off, it is almost identical to bitcoin as it is a project fork of bitcoin. Yet litecoin is far below Ethereum.
Bitcoin Cash was launched in 2017 as a hard fork of bitcoin. Bitcoin cash and bitcoin are closely related, for example when bitcoin goes up bitcoin cash will too go up and when bitcoin is down, bitcoin cash is also down. Yet bitcoin cash does not compare to Ethereum in terms of price value and market cap.
