Cardano-focused Twitter account, Cardano Whale, predicts that Cardano might have its "Ethereum moment" in the next bull run. Explaining what he meant, ADA whale recalls when Cardano became the third largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization in the past year, while Ethereum ranked second.

Cardano Whale noted that the run-up then was quite early as Cardano did not have the "components" it has currently.

The Cardano enthusiast envisages a repeat of this same scenario with DeFi, NFTs and community activity exploding. He notes that a vacuum will ultimately be created for Cardano to thrive in the next bull run.

In the months leading up to the September 2021 Alonzo upgrade, ADA prices rallied more than 1,800%, outperforming Bitcoin and Ethereum in terms of gains. Subsequently, it rose to become the third-largest cryptocurrency in terms of market capitalization.

Precisely in August 2021, Cardano reached a market capitalization of $78 billion while it traded above the $2.50 mark. Due to the current bear market, ADA has lost much of this value. ADA ranks as the eighth largest cryptocurrency with a market valuation of $11.9 billion, as it trades significantly lower from its all-time high at a current price of $0.34.

Cardano's potential to flip Ethereum someday is believed by some. As reported by U.Today, YouTuber Ben Armstrong (BitBoy) caused a stir on Twitter after predicting that Cardano would end up surpassing Ethereum in terms of market capitalization.
