Topic: BTC vs ETH - page 2. (Read 1004 times)
I wish it was 10 October 2017 once again
if I'm going to compare this to i will chose bitcoin than etherium or I can say 50% each of this coin because this to altcoin is great so its hard to compare.
I still prefer BTC, 50/25/25. Eth does a lot for development, but bitcoin is more stable in my opinion.
I think that bitcoin will always be the best coin and he will live forever. In any case, all the coins are drawn to it. Because he is a leader and only he sets the pace of growth.
Until now BTC still provides good value, long-term for BTC is quite promising. We can all prove to date, and be sure that BTC and Eth will continue to increase and be strong in the development of Crypto.
At the moment it seems to me that ETH looks more promising. And I have some arguments on this score, for example, recently the famous analyst Tom Lee made a forecast of $ 1,900 by the end of 2018 for 1 eth. Of course, many were skeptical of his statements, but he could well be insiders from the developers of Eth about the introduction of revolutionary technology after the Devcon4 exhibition, which will take place at the end of October. It is also worth mentioning that last year it was the Eth that organized the market rally, and not Bitcoin. And there is an interesting trend, recently on the main BitFinex crypto-exchange for about a week the volume of trading on ETH is much higher than the trades on the same Bitcoin, which indicates an increased interest in ETH. And as you know, heightened interest always leads to a price increase. That's why, in the near future it's on ETH that I expect a strong growth.
Hi,
My current coin distribution looks something like:
BTC 40%
ETH 40%
Other 20% (tokens and altcoins)
Right now BTC is going up, while ETH is still around 300$.
I am here for the long term, and I know two things:
1. Bitcoin has a limited supply of 21 millions btc
2. Ethereum doesn't have a supply cap, which may lead to inflation (I suppose)
On the long run, should I maintain the BTC-ETH balance at 50-50, like I do now, or should I go for more BTC than ETH?
Thank you!

BTC is the AOL of cryptocurrencies. It was the first but it is failing to evolve. Every attempt made results in a hard fork and a smaller pool of adherants to the protocol. Eventually it will fade into irrelevance as it continues to lose market share. I personally sell every Bitcoin I get to buy more Ethereum. I can understand your desire to diversify your portfolio but spreading risk by holding BTC means that you will suffer slightly less losses to the downside but your sacrificing a lot of upside to get it.
I also keep my investments as an author ! Because no one knows exactly what will happen next! Also I have added to my portfolio NEO, I hope he will not disappoint me)
I buy both coins. What of them will shoot the monetary fountain it is impossible to guess. Both coins have to be in your investment portfolio 
well if you check the blockchains. ethereum is developped much better witha better network size, faster and less fees comparing to bitcoin. and from investor point of view also ethereum looks have a more potential for mid term.
I think you should invest in both of them as both of the cryptocurrencies have enormous potential to grow. Bitcoin, without any doubt is the most popular crypto is the most stable crypto available in the market. Ethereum on the other hand is the master of all smart contracts has one of the strongest development teams makes it a crypto worth investing. Investing in both of thems can help you earn high returns.
BTC is still king. There's already so much investment built around BTC that it has very much a life of its own. Any fall in price is immediately supported and bought by the people waiting in the sidelines to hold long term. LONG TERM. It has become an asset that people are willing to store like gold.
Thank you for the help!
I'll keep my current ration for the moment, but I'll check the market for any profitable movements

I don't think it's wise to ask such questions because half or replies will be pure speculation and the other will not be honest (people will promote the coin in which their own funds are) so I just warn you to take all opinions with giant grain of salt. You should be able to make your own decision.
Yes, I was aware, thanks for the advice BTC and ETH are different coins. BTC , as we all known , it's the first and the most popular coin, it is the best trust by us. But I don't think it will be a currency because of this max limit. In another word, the ETH has another advantage , it’s smart contract. Maybe one day, ETH will be more popular than BTC. This is just my viewpoint.
Yes, I see the things in a similar view. Many startups create their tokens using the ETH blockchain, and some of them have real potential.btc is always first choice for noobs! if you want to invest eth is better
Who said I'm a noob?
I believe in ETH because it has good idea behind
Bitcoin is main altcoins (father ) and have fiexed number so that it is better you can use ETH when price down to safe your gain from bitcoin but for long time use 80% bitcoin and 20% others (50% ETH and 50% others)
IMO you should keep Eth not more than 20-30% for possible grow and participation in ICO
Bitcoin amount should be greater and not the same as Eth.

In my opinion you need to invest more in BTC maybe 70% and 30 altcoins.My current coin distribution looks something like:

My basket looks right now exactly like that: 70% BTC - 30% ETH.
But anyway in my opinion in 2018 ETH have bigger potential to grow.
Everything will be more clear after implementing Segwit.. Then i will consider to move some source to ETH. Maybe it will be 50% - 50%
2. Ethereum doesn't have a supply cap, which may lead to inflation (I suppose)
There is no limit cap and constant bug flow causing monetary looses to people.
I would go 90% bitcoin and 10% for fun in alts if u need that adrenaline/thrill.

If you are shorting then BTC is right choice, because moving money USD->BTC->USD->...you actually still hold some BTC but also make USD on hights.
