Ethereum overtaking Bitcoin in marketcap is only a matter of time. This could happen possibly in the next week if there is a psychological rally to $500. Today it hit $420 already so I do not think it is a far fetched idea for it to rally to $500 in the next 7-14 days. At that point all of the MSM will have to start talking about Ethereum.
With all of the upcoming news you list we could see $500 by the end of the Chinese conference.
Agreed. But i am not so sure if it can overtake next week though. If it did, it will be history in the making. :D
