Bitcoin and Ethereum - how important is “The flippening”?



Coinbase has now published the report for the third quarter of this year. There we mainly took a look at the trading volume of the two largest cryptocurrencies. And as in the previous quarter, Ethereum managed to overtake Bitcoin in terms of trading volume this time too.


In the third quarter of 2021 , Ethereum accounted for 22% of the total trading volume on the platform , while Bitcoin accounted for only 19%.


Now we shouldn't conclude from Coinbase about the entire crypto market and look at the crypto elephant race from other perspectives.


Ethereum is the basis of the new financial world, isn't it?

So far, some figures suggest that Ethereum is the basis of the new, decentralized financial world. However, behind Ethereum we already see alternative crypto projects emerging that want to compete with Ethereum for this rank. Because not only the Ethereum network scores with flexibility thanks to the smart contract integration, but also Solana, Polkadot, Cardano and more!


But if we zoom in a little out of the details, we see that the area of ​​decentralized finance is an incredibly young area of ​​the economy. So it is not yet clear which potential will develop particularly well in which project - i.e. who will make the DeFi race in the long term.


How important is flippening really?

So far we have mainly seen that Ethereum follows Bitcoin in its development , similar to how many altcoins do in the altcoin season. Triggered by the bullish market sentiment, Ethereum was also able to "enrich" itself with Bitcoin price increases.


CoinFlip Founder and Chief Advisor Daniel Polotsky explains :


"The price of Ethereum largely follows Bitcoin's halving cycles , although that relationship could decouple over time as Ethereum continues to develop use cases that Bitcoin cannot achieve. Then its price could rise faster than Bitcoin's . "



According to Polotsky, the Ethereum rate is expected to rise to $ 64,000 by 2030. But if we look at the stock-to-flow model from Trader PlanB, we see a possible Bitcoin price of over a million US dollars in 2030. Sure - that is a long way off.


As a rule, there are some metrics that play a special role in "flipping". Including active wallet address, transaction volume (see Coinbase), number of transactions, trading volume, transaction fees and Google search traffic. The question now is which metrics are really crucial for the success of the two crypto currencies - after all, the two digital currencies serve very different areas of application and tasks.


What we are currently seeing are two very different crypto-universes, the success and importance of which do not necessarily depend on each other.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...
