Ethereum is talking about 2020 as its target for scaling upgrades. There are other projects that haven't launched yet that probably have an advantage over them, as so long as it can integrate with Ethereum rather than claim it can totally supplant it. There are projects like Cardano and Zilliqa, but then there are some like Orbs that are using blockchain virtualization claiming it can work in tandem with Ethereum. I assume Ethereum will implement some of its solutions before that 2020 date, but they will probably need to rely on more partnerships to do it.

https://cosmos.network/ https://cosmos.network/ will also have an Ethereum bridge, as well as proof-of-stake.

Cardano has stalled for so long that I stopped waiting. I hear great things about EOS from people I trust, though, I need to look into that.

  EOS is like a really expensive AWS. There is nothing revolutionary or decentralized about that. I don’t know what you mean about Cardano, they have a very detailed roadmap and haven’t missed any major milestones I am aware of. https://cardanoroadmap.com https://cardanoroadmap.com

  The launch of EOS has not been very well received at all. Lots of mistakes and the governance is a mess.

    Indeed, EOS relies on a constitution with human interpretable rules [1]. Not sure how that fits into the crypto sphere, where governance should be done be algorithms and code.

      and it's also supposed to be hashed in each "legitimate" transaction. while network resources are so scarce as to stir rampant speculation. idk - the only thing about EOS that i have noticed is how overtly it screams of greed. the people that jumped in on that bandwagon did so for no other reason but hoping it would make them rich (cos Daniel Larimer said "you can run Ethereum on a single EOS smart contract", lol).

  EOS has essentially taken the worst part about the blockchain technology (slowness and expensive operations compared to a centralized solution) and merged it with the worst part about a centralized technology (human mistakes, cartels, collusion, oligarchy).

Ethereum has the massive advantage of having nurtured a certain culture and community around it. that's why, regardless of all else, there is a list of really interesting experiments taking place on Ethereum and applications that could cement its future.
