I think people are just hyping ethereum too much. they talk crap on how the bitcoin community couldnt handle these issues, but we just don't know if they cant or can either.

I too think its only a bubble and people are too excited about the pump in ETH. In real ETH will not be crossing BTC in near future. We may not know the outcome of Segwit integration but BTC is the mother of crypto currencies and it will hold its place.

I don't agree upto some extend because not many people knows about ETH and not many people have it. And I guess that no other coin could ever beat bitcoin in terms of popularity because whenever people come to know about cryptocurrency then first they try bitcoin and later on other coins so majority of the cryptocurrency user have bitcoin at least and and thus bitcoin have more market potential then any other coin and bitcoin was the after and it will stay in its position forever this is my prediction.

I think it will take time until the end of 2018 or it could be more but it seems this might be hard for this year 2017.

With the turmoil surrounding the potential separation of BTC, it may soon happen. We will always appreciate bitcoin because many people have started it all, all the currencies involved in bitcoin will be getting stronger because of its bitcoin like this.

Bitcoin is the grandaddy to the entire digital currency network. So however high digital currency growth happens the credit belongs to bitcoin. Bitcoin due to the increasing and decreasing price might go down in the value but this will always serve as number one.

That might be true. But I do not believe Ethereum will be able to hold their gains for long. Sooner or later the price has to go down simply because that is what markets do.

So always remind yourself not to get lost in the mania and try to stay objective. In a market like this, it is easy to think that the good days will never end.

Right for now ethereum's price go to the moon but it's not allways does like that. After growing up inthe market it will get some correction.

Bitcoin will always be number one, forever, if something goes wrong in the bitcon system, then altcoin will also have an impact too, bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency that is not attached to anyone, freely different from other altcoins that are bound and monopolized a person

Bitcoin is and will still be number one for a long time, even the current coins that look promising like ETH and Monero are very unlikely to take it's place right now, considering their prices as well as actual use is very much less than BTC regardless of their rise of price due to speculation.

Monero might not bet the one that replaces the ranking of Bitcoin from the number one spot to the number two spot. I would prefer to use Maidsafe or MAID instead of Monero just because the people that help develop that coin know that they have to test a bunch before releasing a working product.

I believe this too. I speculate that August 1 is going to see a huge price fall. Bitcoin market cap is definitely going to decrease. Ethereum is rising exponentially. I also believe that August 1 will result in a mass migration of BTC users to Ethereum, like me. I can't say for sure. But it is becoming more likely every day.

nah. we will have a much clearer idea of what'll happen on that day long before it happens. it's not as if the mystery will continue until midnight on july 31st. people will take positions and publicise them.

and if you're not sure about having money in, then sell for dollars.

i think eth can become the new number one...

It can be number one, if it is years released before bitcoin, bitcoin is the original digital currency, it may have a dump but it will always be going up. The same as Ethereum, it also experienced a big dump after a splitting and that is the reason why it is becoming popular. Bitcoin will be doing the same thing, survive a network split, and become the most valuable asset online.

currently bitcoin is number one currency and hope that it will continue as number one currency for every, because no other altcoin has so much potential to cross bitcoin.

Surely Bitcoin's 1st place will be replaced because of a lot of disavantages so that people will decice not to use Bitcoin for teir daily life

Disadvantages? I assume it's the usual fee and confirmation thingy? You have to understand that every altcoin that eventually gets to cope with the high level of Bitcoin's current usage, will suffer from the same difficulties. People don't seem to look at things from that perspective -- they just see that altcoins are confirming transactions faster, and generally with lower fees, but they forget to look at the fact that barely any one is using these networks. Just look at what the little bit of usage is doing with Ethereum's fees, they have increased significantly, and people still consider them cheap? What a bunch of wackos....

Ethereum is taking gradually the bitcoin place even though we are not noticing it.

We aren't noticing this because it isn't happening. Roll Eyes

Eth price is getting increased and has been doubled within a week, the transaction fees are very cheap comparing to bitcoin, the confirmation time is much faster etc etc.

Just because its price has increased, the overall transaction fees are lower and faster, you think Ethereum is taking over? Look at the general network usage that Ethereum experiences right now, it has gone up, but that's only due to the hype/bubble that it is going through. It's just people sending coins back and forth, from and to their exchange. It's all hype related, and has not much to do with actual usage.

I remember when the Ethereum was very very cheap after the ICO and when I saw it I didn't believed that one day that coin will be such popular maybe it will become much popular than now but it was unbelievable at that time.

Bitcoin is unbeatable for this decade at least but I think that the core dev will do something that will make bitcoin better and continue leading the cryptocurrencies.

This is not that simple. It's not a simply a matter of better tech. There are coins which are much more advanced than bitocin is now.
With better parameters, features and with clear and solid milestones set. Do you think that creating new altcoin is at this point enough to dethrone bitcoin?
Bitcoin is linked to massive economy system, new coins will never be able duplicate this.

There are some disadvantages with bitcoin like the fees,confirmation times, etc but not a lot and this is only temporary. I would still use bitcoin for daily transactions even if it becomes number two since my local exchange only accepts bitcoin.

If the price of bitcoin keeps going down until the end of the weekend then there's a chance that OP could be correct.

Quote from: Ayers on June 12, 2017, 10:32:06 AM

there was never a coin that matched bitcoin 1:1 and i think never will be

There was this one coin that matched bitcoin 1:1 I believe it was called zcash after people found out about it the price went down pretty fast.

Ethereum has a brighter future

To me I think bitcoin has a bright future because its investors and users are already very large of number and in coming years if many countries accept bitcoin its will be going to very stable and very high and its adoption will very increased I am sure that bitcoin will always be the top of all in currency.
