In my opinion i think erethreum is on the rise right behind bitcoin this year spike has put erethreum on the rise more than any other cryptocurrency,it has recieved more media coverage than even bitcoin.
It has a built-in programming language solidity,that is turing complete,which simply means many different things can be built on it,erethreum transaction speed has its advantage compared to the time to send bitcoin. Also large co-operations have created EEA(erethreum enterprise alliance) something one has to keep in mind in terms of business community their bets are not to be set aside so easily they dont like to play around with things like speculations they always play it safe.
