I really liked Cardano, until I started trying to learn more about it and develop for it.
It's way behind Ethereum in developer experience. The way funds are shuffled around between addresses for a wallet also makes it much harder to reason about (even though in theory the UTXO model is better than account-based for parallel processing of transactions). In actuality, I don't think it's more scalable than Ethereum, and the scaling solutions they're working on (which are years out IMO) are L2s, like with Ethereum.
The tooling is also way behind Ethereum, and running a full wallet is incredibly resource-intensive.
I'm still staking a lot of Cardano, but I think it's unlikely it will overtake Ethereum in value at this point.
