Topic: Bitcoin vs Ethereum - page 5. (Read 1073 times)

well it's a tough choice, because both coins have different advantages, and can be utilized well if we know it. for me, ETH is also very good to make profit, and it is most often used in investment.

In general, these two projects are radically different and not very comparable to each other. But I personally prefer to invest in Ethereum. And I think things will soon turn around for the two coins.    

an interesting discussion, can be a goal for me, I just started to want to collect one of them,   as i know many other coins that are working better as a peer to peer transfer of digital currencies like Litecoin and Vertcoin,

hi,


            My dission is the BTC is good than ETH becouse the price of the bitcoin is more than the price of ETH
              it is my dission that bitcoin is better than ETH

                                what is you dission about BTC and ETH ?

i don't know, why, but now for me, eth is more important, than btc
I received money for work in eth,  i hold money in eth, not in btc

Bitcoin and Ethereum, these coins are equally excellent made for long-term investments, perhaps to invest in
Bitcoin, for small investors I think it would be very difficult to buy 1 Bitcoin. So maybe it could be an investment in Ethereum whose price is not so high, besides Bitcoin, Ethereum I think is equally good for us to make as an investment.

I think we don't have to compare bitcoin and etherium when we can both gain on it, I believe that bitcoin is amazing but I also think that we can also gain on etherium if we are going to do such profitable thing or maybe investing on it.

Ethereum for me, because I believe that this year ethereum will pump up the price you will earn x3 or x5 profit in this year so just hold if you have ethereum in your wallet.

i think both because its same currency.

for me personally if for investment I definitely use bitcoin because it will take
a long time to hold it, while I will use eth for my trade. so i choose btc and eth

I think when people consider the hash rate, number of developers and amount of work that's gone into bitcoin they'll see it's easily the most secure of them all. It might not increase in value as much as others with lower prices, but it's easily the most secure store of value these days.

Even cheaper:

Bitcoin has a lot of brand recognition, history and mythos behind it (who really is Satoshi?). Since the price started at essentially $0, you have a lot of stories of "Bitcoin millionaires" that pop up every time a major price point is hit.

Bitcoin is also comparatively easy to grasp. Even if you don't understand blockchain, the concept of online payment systems and transfers has been around for a while. Most of Bitcoin's adoption to date has been about encouraging retailers to accept it, making Bitcoin ATMs, etc, as well as the more fanatic members encouraging everyone to buy and hold (most people can get away with just buying some Bitcoin on coinbase and never even knowing what a Bitcoin address is.) Unfortunately its hugely deflationary price makes it mostly useless as a currency and instead just a speculative instrument.

Ethereum is a whole other beast, and people are still just focused on it as a currency/store of value. It is trivial to simulate the primary aspect of Bitcoin on Ethereum (i.e. a fixed-supply easily-transferable digital good) (see eBitcoin or the dozen copycats). However Ethereum's value is not tied to its usefulness as a currency, but rather as a gateway to interacting with the Ethereum ecosystem. Its utility therefore isn't really tied to its price or volatility, and it's been repeated many times that ETH is not meant to be a currency.

This concept is a bit harder to grasp, and is much less flashy than "digital gold". Mainstream adoption will only come once Ethereum has some killer apps that are easily adopted by the majority.

Latest "big buy" was ETH. I use it to buy other coins. On centralized exchanges as well as decentralized exchanges.

I Prefer using doge coins on the centralized ones.

Because the core promise behind cryptocurrencies is both revolutionary (never been possible before in the history of humankind levels of revolutionary, not breathless Silicon Valley bullshit revolutionary.) and desperately desired by the market at large.

The market wants this, badly, it is the final nail in the coffin for the interference of the state in their affairs, maybe even the final nail in the coffin for the state, period. Every stumble the dominant player in the market space makes, the value of potential competitors rise. And right now, Bitcoin is stumbling so hard that even projects with their own severe problems are gaining on it.

And yet the market wants this so bad that the price of Bitcoin itself is still skyrocketing, even granting that other players in the space are gaining on it.

It’s true that etherium has gained a lot of popularity since it has started among the people throughout the world and its users have started growing too. But still I think that bitcoin is better than etherium and would prefer holdings of bitcoin over holdings of etherium. This isn’t because firstly, bitcoin is way more popular than etherium and ahead way more users than etherium. Then people trust bitcoin more than etherium.

Bitcoin is like gold, ethereum is like oil. An oz of gold is worth 300x a barrel of oil; does that make gold more valuable? Maybe yes if you own an underground vault. Maybe not if you're an airliner or own a factory.

Both Bitcoin and Ethereum are better than other coins in the crypto market.But Bitcoin is at the top and the number  one position.Its exchange value is high because prices are not stable.And after that, it is here that Ethereum.It is also the second to the popularity.Today it is also moving its position.

Bitcoins is not popular. Bitcoins is bitcoins. No way around it.

I tried to explain alt-coins to a neighbor. I don't think he understood it. He knew what bitcoins was..

Perhaps TRX is gonna kick etherums lilly *ss ?

They have  a contest promising 1 bill usd (or was it trx..) to programmers at the moment. Talk is cheaper. I know.

I love that attitude!
