Ethereum is good but it's not comparable to Bitcoin as there many reasons for this like today's parity multisignature wallet hack issue. ETH has many security issues which needs to be solved first and it's blockchain size is fucking huge it's around 400GB so If I want to build anything on ETH platform then I need to download the whole 400 fucking GBs of data.

I would say Bitcoin is going to be dominating the Crypto-world forever, Ether will grow big but out of both if I had to pick one it would be BTC since Bitcoin is already pretty established but I am sure ETH has lot of growth potential but I don't think ETH will cross BTC price range.

Do you think Ether will catch up? The technology is more advanced, but will scalability of ethereum be an issue?
No I don't think that ethereum is gonna catch up with bitcoin, I know that it have a better technology and also faster time for transfer of funds but that doesn't mean that it can surpass bitcoin that easily, it's the most backed cryptocurrency, and also the first ever cryptocurrency to be made.
And also that bitcoin is also evolving with time with major network implementations and changes to combat the problems that it is facing now.

Im honestly with bitcoin only because it is showing or has shown the potential for the future development. Just look at it, how much market cap it has gotten in such hard situation also whereas Ethereum still stood the same as it was few months ago. Being core of ICO projects the Ethereum is not getting invested by many of the token holders. They are just making use of it to invest into ICO tokens nothing else. Explain why Ethereum does not pump meanwhile? May be it unlimited and more or less being controlled for its prices. So I'm pretty sure that it will take lot of time to get pumped. Meanwhile bitcoin may quadruple next year, who knows more than that so just invest in the ether and stay happy. :-)

Bitcoin will obviously win this race since it has a better growth than ETH. ETH is a good currency but lacks support from the crypto community.
Bitcoin on the other hand has a major support from the community and the number is increasing day by day as new members are joining the community. So BTC has better chances than ETH to be in the top over the next 5 years.

According to me ethereum will never catch upto bitcoin.
its like ethereum is derived from bitcoin.Even if ethereum becomes a hit like what bitcoin is right now,i believe bitcoin will be something bigger.
You are right on your first sentence but quite wrong in your second one.

Ethereum is actually not derived from bitcoin as ethereum offers smart contracts and its a platform for decentralized apps (DAPPS) rather than for daily payments. Bitcoin on other hand is purely for payments and store of value. I think ETH is not decentrlized like bitcoin that's why many still scare to invest in it, vitalik have majority power to make changes in ETH network.

I do not know what you mean with catching up?

- Awareness? Surely not.

- Price? Surely not.

- Winning percentage? It might be possible that Ethereum will see a booming phase with winning percentages of bitcoin.

Basically people buy what they know or hear of and I am pretty sure that over 90% of the users are clueless that the technology of Ethereum is more advanced.
It is the fact that most of us do not know a well about Ethereum. As per the technological advancements it is quite clear that ethereum is far beyond the limits.Due to the excess of use by the people Bitcoin do have a greater market value and everyone feels that the prices are going to rise in the upcoming years.

In my opinion comparing both the of them is a foolish  task because ethereum could  never be declared as digital currency rather it is only a way to deal with decentralized transactions.

Bitcoin is a worlds famous highest valuable crypto coin . which price is increasing day by day . in last 1 week it's value increased one thousand or more . I think that Bitcoin will still be on top and it will be for sure. Every altcoin will exist as long as Bitcoin exist, but if an altcoin is dying Bitcoin will keep survive. But no altcoin can't cross to bitcoin . Bitcoin is father of all coins. It is still best And it is increasing Like rocket, So next few years it will be the top .

According to me Bitcoin is still going to remain on the top in 5 years. First of all, etherum can't be counted as a currency as it is just used as a token for smart contracts and decentralised applications. Also, ethereum is at its peak right now, so it's prices are going to come down in the future whereas, as bitcoins are gaining more and more acceptance in the market, bitcoin's value will reach a high. Ethereum still has more barriers to overcome to reach the top.

BTC is still best And it is increasing Like rocket, So next few years it never down I thought,

ETH also best coin as I seen, But not near BTC, So next 5 year BTC can top.

so, At last, i say and i also believe in 2018 BTC cross the  10000$+

Considering that Ethereum is based on blockchain, which is the technology that Bitcoin introduced to the world, I believe that Bitcoin will likely always remain on top as far as cryptos are concerned

Which will be the top based on what? Market cap? Transactions/day? It depends. Bitcoin and Ethereum are both really famous cryptocurrencies but they're made for different purposes. Bitcoin is made for a global decentralized currency(or storage value, for some), whereas ethereum is made mainly for smart contracts.

In my opinion though, if bitcoin couldn't fix the scaling issues in probably a year from now, I wouldn't be surprised if it were to be overtaken by a different cryptocurrency. Though it would take probably more than a year, since bitcoin is still the cryptocurrency that has all the publicity. People barely know other coins like Monero, Dash, etc.

I think Bitcoin will stay on top it is the original cryptocurrency that most people know about and trust, ether will definitely increase in value a lot in 5 years time imo

I chose Bitcoin because Ethereum has not made significant feature changes, if up to 5 years ahead Eth does not add feature then Bitcoin will stay ahead.

If we focus these top digital currency, both has decent potential been increased. Volume and market statistics indicate that Bitcoin will be incresing and remain same position but ETH has also good opportunity over Bitcoin one day!

I really don't thinkEth will be as big as bitcoin. Even when Eth becomes big as bitcoin, then bitcoin will be bigger even bigger.
