  Once ETH overtakes BTC I think BTC will start to crash and the resulting panic will (ironically) take down ETH and most other coins and tokens as well, starting the third great crypto bear market.

      I've had the same thought. The best analog I've come up with is searching Github for Ethereum vs. Bitcoin. The numbers (repos / loc / wikis ) are pretty strong for Ethereum compared to other coins excluding Bitcoin -- it would be interesting to plot them over time. Have you found any other ways to watch this metric?

        The whole approach is biased in favor of etherum from the start, since bitcoin is not a smart contract system.
