Although more than 30 tokens that are seen as ETH killers have emerged, only 10 have outperformed ETH in the past three years. TRON's ETH ratio has risen by about 140%, TON has doubled, and SOL has increased by 26% against ETH since 2021 and 140% in the past year. However, the market currently does not believe that SOL can replace Ethereum.
Ethereum's share of the non-Bitcoin crypto market is about 22%, while ETH Killer has 18%. SOL and BNB have a market cap of about $100 billion, and Cardano is $20 billion. ETH is expected to reach $400 billion, and future upgrades may keep it competitive.
