Cardano Beats Solana And Bitcoin As Most Preferred Ethereum Alternative
Cardano has emerged as the most preferred ETH alternative for transactions and savings by crypto users around the globe. This is according to a recent Twitter poll conducted by Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin asking which cryptocurrency Ethereum users would prefer if they woke up in 2035, and 80% of all transactions plus savings in the world are in one currency that is not ETH.
In the first Poll, Buterin mentioned Bitcoin, Cardano, Solana, and USD. In a moment of truth for Bitcoin and Solana users, Cardano emerged as the most preferred cryptocurrency receiving 42% in upvotes compared to Bitcoin’s 38% and SOL’s 13.1%. Only 6.5% of his followers believe USD will still be in place in 2035.
In the Second poll, Tron emerged as the most desired cryptocurrency reaping 51% of the votes followed by BNB at 28%. NEO followed closely with 21.8%, with CNY getting a 4.1% upvote.
The tweet sparked a lot of reactions, with most responders shilling their projects. Dogecoin’s promoter Matt Wallace expressed his disappointment at Vitalik for not including the meme coin in the poll hours after Tesla added DOGE as a payment option for its merchandise.
He said:
“The ironic thing is that Dogecoin actually is the future crypto of earth even though it is not even an option in this poll.”
Others like Tron’s founder Justin Sun and Anndy Lian preferred to take a center ground, pushing for the co-existence of various coins.
Cardano Price Is Expected To Reach These Levels
Looking at the Cardano price chart, we can see that ADA has been quite bullish in recent sessions and has seen a significant increase during the ongoing session. If the current sentiment persists, we could see ADA push to $1.40.
