Top Ethereum Alternatives and Competitors 2022: ETH Killers

 ETH Killers

Ethereum is one of the top crypto cryptocurrencies (ETH) and blockchain networks used around the world, in terms of technology, decentralisation and market capitalization. Ethereum became the first blockchain network that supported more than digital crypto assets, it allows creation and development of smart contracts, decentralized applications (DApps), Decentralized Finance (DeFi) tokens and Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs).

Ethereum has constantly evolved, making timely updates and adding necessary support as and when necessary. However, the high gas fee have been a pain for all the investors, specially the smaller ones. To do a single swap on Uniswap, it costs around 100 USD. Minting an NFT costs close to 300 USD in fee. This is one of the reasons, investors are looking for other alternatives, in other words, ETH Killers, that they think may replace ETH one day.

top ETH alternatives

We do not believe that Ethereum can be flipped by any ETH killers. However, as an alternate, there are a some blockchain networks which many believe will some day become better than Ethereum and may flip ETH. Some of the top Ethereum (ETH) killers are:

Solana (SOL): #1 ETH Alternative

Kin SDK Solana Update. Earlier this fall, we published the ...

Solana was launched in March 2020 which mainly seeks to offer high transaction throughput. It claims to complete 65,000 transactions per second and is looking forward to constantly increase its scalability, hoping it will be nearly doubled from its current transaction processing speed every two years.

The introduction of “Wormhole” serves as a bridge which provides a platform for ERC-20 tokens or assets that are based on the Ethereum blockchain network, move between two networks, Ethereum and Solana efficiently.

 Polkadot current price $12.21 ...

Polkadot is a blockchain network developed and launched by Parity Labs. It was released in April 2020 and has quickly gained traction. Polkadot’s functionality is similar to Ethereum, it supports dApps, NFTs and more. Polkadot seeks to create as well as develop a network of “parachains,” it does not wish to restrict itself to merely a single blockchain. This might aid in providing faster and more economical transactions via the blockchain network.

Polkadot states that its popularity stemmed from its blockchain which allows exchange of arbitrary data instead of limiting its usage to only particular data carried on traditional blockchain networks and hence, Polkadot can be transferred across several blockchains. Another major aspects behind Polkadot is its leadership by Gavin Wood and Jutta Steiner, former executives for Ethereum, which has resulted in significant partnerships such as Ocean Protocol, Origin Tail and more.

Ethereum Classic was formed as a result of the hard fork of the original Ethereum blockchain network, due to the DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) attack. Ethereum Classic has now emerged to be a strong competitor to its former, other half. This blockchain follows the “Code is law” philosophy stringently.

It is powered by the original Ethereum code and provides a platform for running Initial Coin Offerings (ICO), creation, development and hosting of smart contracts among other functions.

However, the above stated blockchain networks are not just competitors to Ethereum, but a few of them are partners of Ethereum to offer greater levels of compatibility.
