bitcoin seems to have the least amount of features out of almost all altcoins, it's outdated and you can pay a 75 dollar transaction fee and it might take months for the transaction to be processed. The upside is that it is probably the most user friendly, has an established community and is the most well known cryptocurrency.

Ethereum has no cap limit. Massive inflation is sure to come along at some point and eth probably has the biggest potential to be manipulated. Possible train wreck waiting to happen.

I think I will choose bitcoin over all. Bitcoin is the father of all coins. And when bitcoin started , many coins have been created in the market but they will never beat bitcoin in the market. Bitcoin has been there for about years. Both eth and bitcoin is good for a long term investment. And both has a good value in the market

Where is my ring of blades...

having different features doesn't mean they are better than bitcoin! you can add thousands of features to one altcoin and not one of them even be used. of course many of the features that have already been implemented in many different projects are very interesting and even seem useful but not even one of them have gotten any real world usage.

when you are calling something alt-coin or crypto-currency, the first thing they do is act as a coin or a currency and as long as they don't do that they are not good and worthy of consideration.

Oh the question is so direct. It's up to your perspective here. If you're looking for huge profits, bitcoin and ethereum might not be the correct place to get.

Bitcoin as a pioneer crytocurrency may has it limitations and we are having a lot of folks issue but I think bitcoin is still the best crytocurrency and the most stable among them. Ethereum is doing fine too and I do advise that we should not look crytocurrency as a competitive market but complementary market.

No.
They have their own certain features where they are good at.
This altcoin that I have joined which is actually a gambling site which uses this RLT token as a currency, that is one feature.
Others have their own. Some are for android applications and some just there to gain profit from ICO.
Some just created for fame reasons.
Be careful what you invest with.

in my opinion bitcoin is the first one and always will be, but people are into altcoins right now not because of any innovations, but because they can earn more there. bitcoin wont go x2 easily, but some shitcoins can

Of course bitcoin is the first one and will remain the number one crypto's. I know ETH is rising very fast in terms of market cap because investors are pumping it very hard. Few days ago it has crashed together with bitcoin but now has recovered. And altcoins are just for pumping and dumping, and investors loved that because of the profit. That's why we have shitcoins.

ETH is absolutely a trainwreck waiting to happen, but it may not happen. BTC is ultimately meant to be a store of value, not a daily use coin. BTC and ETH have significantly beat the altcoin market YTD.

bitcoin is the most mined and most accepted, these thing matter more than anythign else, all other altcoin are pump and dump, bitcoin is not really outded, it's just do the job, ETH is not accepted for now and probably never will be but has potential to increase very high

I think bitcoin is most simple for you to start understanding it. So get go and start it. You will find out that there is none transaction that takes months to be accepted. They get drooped way faster. Bitcoin tech is just fine. It is just targeted most.

Bitcoin is the coin that started it all. All of these other coins are just cloning the basic principles of Bitcoin. That is why the community is so established and the price point is where it is. Sure, there's some issues with fees and getting confirmations, but they're working on these issues. It's a decentralized coin so any changes need to go through the community
