NEAR - Is NEAR Protocol the Next Ethereum?
Investors are always on the hunt for the next big thing -- "the next Amazon " or "the next Tesla ." Crypto investors are no different, as many investors are looking for the "next Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) " or the "next Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) ."
The leading cryptocurrencies came of age and existed in relative obscurity for years before climbing to their multibillion-dollar market caps as the wider investing community became aware of them. There may never be a next Bitcoin or Ethereum in terms of total return now that even new cryptocurrencies are much more on the radar of investors from inception. However, due to their ubiquity and entrenched status with users, investors, and developers, I think that Bitcoin and Ethereum will likely remain the two 'blue-chip' cryptocurrencies for the foreseeable future.
That said, I believe there is plenty of room for a differentiated cryptocurrency with solid performance metrics, growing adoption, and ample funding to serve as a viable alternative to Ethereum and become a potential third blue-chip crypto. One cryptocurrency that looks like a viable option to achieve this billing is NEAR Protocol (CRYPTO: NEAR) .
