EOS
EOS, with a market cap. of $7.53 billion and a total circulation of more than 896 million token, rounds out the top 5. Currencies surged in value, interest , and number, only to plummet again before labeling off.

CONCLUSION
The development of bitcoin has spurred a debate over its and other cryptocurrencies futures. Despite recent challenges , bitcoin popularity since its inception in 2009 has encouraged the development of rival such as Ethereum, lite coin , ripple etc.
A cryptocurrencies that seeks to be a part of the mainstream financial system would have to meet a variety of requirements. While that likelihood is remote , there is little doubt that bitcoin`s success or failure in coping with the challenges it faces will have a significant impact on the fortunes of other cryptocurrencies in the coming years.
