Consensus 2025, held in Toronto, brings together many important names from the cryptocurrency industry. At this point, one of the participants was Anthony Di Iorio, the co-founder of the largest altcoin Ethereum. Comparing Ethereum to Bitcoin (BTC), Anthony Di Iorio stated that Etheruem was designed as an alternative rather than a direct competitor to Bitcoin. Di Iorio, one of the eight co-founders of Ethereum, said that he met Vitalik Buterin and joined the Ethereum team thanks to his support for Bitcoin. Di Iorio, who still states that he is a big Bitcoin advocate, nevertheless claimed that Ethereum has a chance of eventually surpassing Bitcoin in terms of market value. “I believe Ethereum could surpass Bitcoin in terms of market cap. Because Ethereum creates so many use cases and value creation opportunities, I think ETH has the opportunity to outperform BTC because of these features.” *This is not investment advice.
