Cardano has emerged as the most popular ETH alternative for transactions and savings among cryptocurrency users all over the world.

According to a Twitter poll conducted by Vitalik Buterin on Friday that posed if 80 percent of all transactions and savings in the world are in one currency that is not ETH, which would the community be in as alternative.

Poll for Ethereum community. You wake up in 2035, and 80% of all transactions + savings in the world are in one currency that is not ETH. Which would you prefer it to be?

The Ethereum Co-Founder listed four currencies in the first poll: Bitcoin, Cardano, Solana, and USD. Cardano emerged as the most preferred cryptocurrency in a moment of truth for Bitcoin and Solana users, receiving 42 percent of upvotes to Bitcoin’s 38 percent and SOL’s 13.1 percent. Only 6.5 percent of his supporters believe the US dollar will still exist in 2035.

In a quoted tweet, Cardano founder Charles Hoskison enlisted the help of the Cardano community to help vote for the network in the first poll.

The second poll may also see TRON receive assistance from Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, who believes that multi-chain is the way of the future.

I hope It will be #TRON, #Ethereum and #BNB all co-existing together in 2035! I believe a multi-chain future #BTT is trying to build! Connecting #TRON, #Ethereum and #BSC! https://t.co/waJiaQglDI
