Some will still call it an altcoin but I think we all know that ethereum has graduated beyond that. Ethereum has a powerful platform that quite a few institutions and startups are now using for their product offering. One example that come to mind is Numerai (http://numer.ai).
I am sure that you will also have examples you can share. When a platform becomes the genesis of major innovation then it cannot be considered a bit player anymore.

It depends how you want to define altcoin.
Traditionally altcoin means an alternative to Bitcoin. If you want to define altcoins as cryptocurrency which is not yet successful, then, by definition, all altcoins are unsuccessful because when they are successful they are no longer "altcoins".

I really like its potential on decentralized cloud storage!
