Bitcoin will constantly remain Bitcoin: the initial, the unique, the greatest. Ethereum will remain Ethereum, it will never exchange Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is the first successful crypto currency that is currently the best  , because of the advantages and the big supportive community behind it.
People are investing in bitcoins and the users as well as the acceptance is increasing day by day with , with so much uses across the globe I don't think that any alt coin would overcome bitcoins ,

But yes we cannot be sure , maybe some alt coins with good future like ETH can overcome bitcoins ,
Surely it would face many problems .

Bitcoins is the first of its kind and people would never forget Bitcoins for the Revolution that it brought in that crypto world.

As long as bitcoin is available in the market and users still investing on it. No alternative one can ever replaced bitcoin on its place that is the truth and only time can tell if that will go beyond years or decades from now. Bitcoin comparing to ethereum is not ideal for bitcoin lasted much about existence on year than any altcoin combined. Even the price is irrelevant to even assumed to be equal.

Bitcoin is still at 46.9% market dominance compared amongst 867 currencies in the crypto markets. This is during a BTC downtrend too.

Everything is possible that ethereum will become an alternative and a substitute, on one bitcoin the world can not sit. You always have to look for alternatives. Especially bitcoin is not so stable. but maybe it's just a PR move, to attract more participants.

While seeing this thread i am laughing because on june OP said bitcoin will not be number one and comparing with Ethereum Here people always forget bitcoin and ethereum are two different functionality or purpose using blockchain technology . Bitcoin is undefeated King and will be because of its limited supply and no one owns this . But Ethereum owns by organisation and huge supply.

I basically agree with that view

More specifically, that Bitcoin as well as Ethereum had been created for different goals and for achieving different ends. Bitcoin was conceived as a means of payment (read, a full-fledged currency), while Ethereum as a platform for smart contracts. But we should face the reality and admit that both Bitcoin and Ethereum alike are now mostly used for speculation purposes, though the latter seems to be even more speculative since it is used for speculation directly (as Ethereum tokens) and for speculating with project tokens built using this platform

I think bitcon will continue to become number one crypto  curency in the future. It has become more popular which resulted to the demand to increase. Many country as well as establishment also starting to adopt bitcoin which means the market for bitcoin will grow more in the coming years.

Bitcoin will be number one, and others altcoins will follow, it is very hard to predict which altcoin will be number two or three, I think ETH and Monero can have second and third position. Right now Monero is not so popular all around, but it can be much more popular.

From my travels around bitcointalk to date, I don't think any other crypto can touch bitcoin it seems just way too strong even with that ICO ban news
Well, in fact Bitcoin is the progenitor of all crypto-currencies, and today it is almost the only of its kind in the price category. I do not think that any currency can beat the maximum Record of the price for Bitcoin.
Everything can be and nothing can be cut off completely. But in order to be sure that Bitcoin can lose leadership, you need to have good reason to believe so. Of course every coin in the right to take the place of the leader among the crypto currency, but so far we have Bitcoin, whose price again rises above 4500 dollars.

The reason is pretty straightforward

Bitcoin has an advantage of being the first mover. But it would have lost it long ago if it weren't able to show consistent profits. Everyone should understand that the total majority of people involved in Bitcoin are there for extracting profits exclusively. It may look good and it may look bad, but it is due to these people that we so high prices now. In this way, they stay with Bitcoin simply because it satisfies their demands, i.e. offers sufficient profits. But it works in reverse as well. If Bitcoin ceases to produce profits over long terms, people will quickly forget about it and switch to something else

After three months since opening this thread, it's still bitcoin and I believe after a year it will still bitcoin, the gap is close but the core team and the whole community still support bitcoin and I think chinese ban on icos will have an impact on ethereum.
btc will always have a place to it's user. It will be more interesting soon for many development will happen. It will have more advantage and will be more advanced.

certainly with the growing bitcoin development this will bring a positive impact for all parties involved in bitcoin business. and financially they will be better than ever

I agree with the initial post. Ethereum might pass BTC with big media coverage in the future; however, in the long run BTC will be always first. Satoshi Nakamoto's invention of the blockchain is just brilliant.

I have not invested in crypto currency yet. Late to the party. I'm considering it.

I'm wondering about the inherent value. I get that it's better than fiat currency in so many ways. Best is the peer-to-peer over-coming the lack of trust thing, and for no fee. It's good currency. I get that. I agree. My question is why any one currency over another. So I thought this thread was the best place for this.

Bitcoin is the established king. But what is to stop someone from copying it? No, really copying it. As I understand it, all the altcoins are different in some way, usually trying to improve or be better than the other altcoins. But, why not make an exact copy of Bitcoin? Why not 500 copies of Bitcoin? Why not 500 copies of Ethereum, Neo, vert, etc.?

tldr: I accept that cryptocurrency is a valuable thing, but I don't see how it holds its value against other cryptocurrencies. What am I missing?
