The term "Ethereum Killer" (the time when another platform Overtakes Ethereum) has been around as long as "The Flippening" (the time when another cryptocurrency overtakes Bitcoin in market cap).

But while "The Flippening" is easy to understand, the term "The Ethereum Killer" is harder to define.

Some think it means the same as total market cap (a kind of "Flippening of Ethereum).
Some believe that is when a platform has more tokens and transactions than Ethereum.
Others believe it means that TX fees on another platform are drastically less as compared to Ethereum - while residing on both; as in the case of Tether (both an ERC20 and TRC20 token) which runs on Ethereum and Tron.

IMHO, the true "Ethereum Killer" will not possess just one of the above, but ALL of them.
