My Top Pick of 8 Crypto Coins That Could Overtake BitCoin

A Flippening? Or a Black Swan Event?

For many, Bitcoin will always be king. But with the hundreds of “alt” coins on the market, there’s a lot of competition.

Can we conceivably think one of these coins could ever top $50,000 or higher?

Crypto is still in the “Wild West” phase, so anything is possible. And there’s two scenarios: a“Black Swan Event” or “The Flippening.”

Some Possible “Black Swan” Coins…

Black swan: an unpredictable or unforeseen event, typically one with extreme consequences.

While it’s “extreme” to think that a coin worth less than $100, or even $1, could someday overtake Bitcoin, it’s not unthinkable given the Wild West dynamics of this new frontier.

If crypto began main stream adoption, things like speed and how green coins are could suddenly matter a lot more, making more unheard of coins suddenly skyrocket in value.

Polygon (matic) $1.4604 at time of writing

First there’s Polygon (matic) which I’ve noticed often does well when bitcoin dives. Of course they all feel the influence of Bitcoin’s movements, but I’ve seen Polygon really take off when other coins are looking grim.

Polygon makes transactions running on Ethereum’s network faster and work with multiple Blockchain platforms with a focus on scalability. This is useful stuff and could someday make it really take off in price.

Binance (bnb) $433.54 at time of writing

If Binances network proves to be more efficient, faster and even more green than Ethereum or Bitcoin, then it could have a promising future. Especially if large businesses decide to use it as their blockchain of choice.

Cardano (ada) $2.4173 at time of writing

This has a lot of intelligent people behind it and is kind of like the cool professor with the pipe’s choice. They want to be green, useful and even help the world, but critics say their not really doing a lot with it yet. Are they wrong? Let me know in the comments.

Litecoin (ltc) $177.18 at time of writing

Nearly identical to Bitcoin, there is one major factor that sets this coin apart: speed. With faster transactions, the value of this coin could gain serious traction if more and more companies decide to use blockchain technology to conduct business.

Dogecoin (doge) $0.3245 at time of writing

Sometimes the universe works through irony.

As Elon postulated, “The most ironic and entertaining outcome would be the cryptocurrency that was started as a joke to make fun of cryptocurrencies ends up being the leading cryptocurrency.”

And what’s more fun than rooting for a dog?

And on a serious note, Doge has the best branding in crypto which I explain in detail here, and is already greener than Bitcoin.

Hedera Hashgraph (hbar) $0.2373 at time of writing

This one allows users to create powerful decentralized applications (DApps). The crazy part is how this project is owned and governed by well-known corporations like Boeing, LG and even Google. Watch out for this one, someday it could takeoff leaving people wonder why they didn’t notice it before.

Harmony One (one) $0.1026 at time of writing

Harmony one is cool because it seeks to do what its name implies, establish harmony between different blockchain projects.

As they say on their site, “Harmony is an open and fast blockchain. Our mainnet runs Ethereum applications with 2-second transaction finality and 100 times lower fees. Harmony is your open platform for assets, collectibles, identity, governance. Our secure bridges offer cross-chain asset transfers with Ethereum, Binance and 3 other chains.”

Sounds like smart stuff, which could translate to a much higher price.

Or … Will The Flippening Come to Pass?

Ethereum (eth) $3170 at time of writing

Here’s the one you’ve all been waiting for. As a black swan event implies an unforeseen occasion arising on the scene, there is a predicted dominance of bitcoin many are already envisioning and fantasizing about.

It’s referred to as The Flippening, the theoretical moment Etherium overtakes Bitcoin in price.

So, Ethereum already has this “vision” to be manifested if enough people believe it. That’s how speculation works, if enough people believe and buy.

But Ethereum has a lot more going for it than just a vision. It is an extremely useful block chain where smart contracts are made and things like digital art are sold. Some consider it the World Wide Web of blockchain technology, as other projects are developed and run on the Ethereum network.

Ethereum’s main challenge is becoming more green and lowering fees. If those can be achieved, it’s potential growth will be exponential.

But being so useful, and with recent upgrades that are designed to reduce supply, could combine to make the price of Ethereum eventually overtake Bitcoin.

Ethereum is my top pick.
