Profit is the most important thing in investment, now imagine if you have $1000 in the beginning of this year, there is 2 option;
1. buy bitcoin at $1000 and get only BTC1
2. buy ethereum at $22 and get 45 eth
how much profit you get right now?
1. Current price $3935 which mean $2935 profit
2. Current price $289, which mean $12,000 profit. Can you imagine that?
That's why, that man argued that eth is best.

profit is important but not the most important thing. there are lots of things you need to consider. like how much risk your investment has. the risks of bitcoin investment is a lot lower than any other altcoin.

besides if what you explained here is all the logic you need to invest in something then i can bring 100 examples of things that are 10000 times better than ETH because they could have given much more profit!

example: HTMLCOIN!
it is literary a shitcoin. the value was 0.1 satoshi (yeah it was literary worth less than 1 satoshi) and went up to 15 satoshi. that is a 14,900% profit
your $1000 investment could have turned into $150,000
so with that man's logic HTML5 is the best investment!!!

So last night I was at a party this rich douche walks in and says, and after few drinks down, the topic of crypto currencies came up, and I said Bitcoin is the best currency, and this guy was like no eth is, and I told him to his face eth is shit, who trades in eth over Bitcoins. Then he's like Bitcoin is not good and how he brought eth and made a profit, despite me telling him that eth is a centralized coin, and it's alt, and that most ico are ether based and most of the ico have turned scams, he just wouldn't budge, it got so heated up, littlerly would have punched him, so I need more view's to put forward to. Any ideas on this?

That seems went to be weird but funny, tho Grin

(someone quarrelled because of this topic, huh?). Well,for me, bitcoin is way far better than ethereum in a lot of aspects. Search in google "cryptocurrencies ranking" and you'll see bitcoin at 1 and ethereum at 2. Another is taking a look at the value of these two, bitcoin is more valuable than ethereum (I mean, bitcoin price is higher than ethereum, although both of these are valuable). Next is its usability. More people are inclined with bitcoin than ethereum, and bitcoin is more popular that's why there are more bitcoin wallets out there. We can't deny that bitcoin is the father of all cryptocurrencies.

You told him wrong,ethereum is a good open source smart contract platform based on blockchain.
In theory,ethereum is one of the latest technologies in cryto world.
It is assumed the very next to bitcoin among all altcoins and has many lucrative aspects.
If you explore, you would find digital tokens are based on ether network,we can say ICOs are baseless without ethereum support.

Naturally, bitcoin is better than eth for long term, and you may say; in every way bitcoin is better than any other cryptocurrency.
Even though people judge it as scam because centralized or whatever, but take a look at its price, rise up from $22 in the early of this year and reach $289 right now. Profit is the most important thing in investment, now imagine if you have $1000 in the beginning of this year, there is 2 option;
1. buy bitcoin at $1000 and get only BTC1
2. buy ethereum at $22 and get 45 eth
how much profit you get right now?
1. Current price $3935 which mean $2935 profit
2. Current price $289, which mean $12,000 profit. Can you imagine that?
