I think it's shortsighted to label everything that isn't BTC as a shitcoin - it's just not true.
Bitcoin is great, but it's not a one-stop-shop to solve every problem in the world. ETH is a better choice for smart contracts, XRP is a better choice for fast payments, etc etc. I love Bitcoin, but it's not like there's no room for other coins offering different functionality A coin that is targeted towards one solution will likely perform it better than something that tries to solve everything at the same time.

I know , some of these bitcoin maximalists are going overboard and declaring everything that isn't bitcoin to be a scam. They like to forget about those 1 million coins by satoshi that are essentially a premine. There is room for multiple currencies to grow and the communities shouldn't be battling against each other.

I think that to some extent Ethereum was a successful attempt to expand the functionality of Bitcoin and became a breakthrough for the emergence of new coins in the market. But Bitcoin has unlimited authority and power in the cryptocurrency market and is the main asset for most crypto investors.

Ethereum is ethereum no matter what though it has some limitations. However, its the second popular coin after bitcoin. Ethereum is a great coin and has a potential of rising in the future. I love both..

shitcoins like ethereum can't solve their own limited functionality and the backdoors they have let alone attempt at bigger more serious stuff that bitcoin is dealing with Wink

Wow you're accusing eth being a shitcoin. Can you make a decent project? It's easy for you to say but eth doing their topnotch effort yo solve the flaws of their own system. See the update on the upgrade? Better to shut it and just watch how they can solve stuff.

Both of them do have different functions and want to achieve the same goal, so bitcoin and Eth will still be coins that are side by side and complementary. Alternative coins that will be able to reach the point of bitcoin and have functions that may not be solved but still provide convenience.

There is a pressing need for ethereum to put a formal cap on it's supply. The 120m figure they are discussing should have been implemented in their hardfork so they don't need to hardfork again in future

Calling the #2 crypto a shitcoin? come on......

Just being objective here, what about that inflation bug in bitcoin that was luckily discovered by a bitcoin cash developer? That could of spelled disaster for btc.

you should not confuse bugs in the protocol with bugs in an implementation software. the bug you are referring to was a bug in bitcoin core which is an implementation of bitcoin's protocol. the protocol itself has no bugs, the software can have lots of bugs.
when you compare it with ethereum, it has lots of "protocol" bugs and exploits and that is what makes it a shitcoin. not to mention that its centralization is also another reason for making it a shitcoin.

Ethereum may not be able to complete the limited functionality of Bitcoin because Bitcoin is far better than Ethereum, Ethereum is still Ethereum and every coin has its own purpose. all Altcoin depends on Bitcoin and Ethereum will also follow.

Can you compare Google and Microsoft Office? OR Adobe Photoshop and Amazon? No !!
It’s the same with Bitcoin and Ethereum, they are developed keeping in mind to solve totally different problems. Stop considering one as superior to other.

Love both!!

Bitcoin will still be the king of Cryptocurrency and this will last a long time. Bitcoin and Ethereum are of course very different coins. And both of these coins have different advantages and disadvantages. I am sure if Ethereum will continue to be under Bitcoin, even though the XRP also has a great chance of passing Ethereum.

I do not know yet can be confirmed about this whether ethereum can replace the position of bitcoin or not for the future, bitcoin is the top coin in crypto and until now there has not been any coin that shifts its popularity, bitcoin is too strong to defeat

that is absolutely true and it is a very good idea from the founder of ethereum, and I strongly believe that ethereum will be able to replace bitcoin.

Vitalik is an amazing man and if he says so, I believe him. However, for Ethereum to overtake Bitcoin in this technological race, there must be something more. Although it may succeed, but for sure not in next year or two..

Well, I guess yes? If that so, we have no need to support any cryptocurrency related to bitcoin which are what they've said, the upgrade of bitcoin which are bitcoin cash, bitcoin cash SV, bitcoin cash ABC. Ethereum is enough as an alternative crypto.

Ethereum can't cover the breaks of bitcoin and blockchain. It is another notion for dragging ERC20 token based projects to a new network and it has big potential. Every coin has its own use and meaning. Why do users keep comparing the different versions of various projects?

Bitcoin cannot solve problems made by central systems but ETH is now able to handle transactions after this fork that made network more faster. Vitalik and other ETH devs already made all necessary changes to ETH blockchain.

As expected after the hardfork, now we are slowly realizing the effect of the hardfork.
Maybe this is the real goal since bitcoin can't do everything. ETH has a good blockchain technology, I expect a more expensive price with ETH in the future. The transactions will get more faster as ETH starts this kind of development.

I think so, as Ethereum is being overrun by crypto kitties. Basically a killer app that has exposed the low capabilities of the network and has created a massive backlog in transactions. They have put in some small fixes in place but they are bandaids. More likely the technology to replace BTC will be one that can support several orders of magnitude more transactions per second. I have my eye on BTS which uses Delegated Proof of Stake and has been sustaining the most transactions per second out of all the currencies. Handling up to 100,000 Transactions per second whereas BTC and ETH are below 50. Just my two cents on this. Better get going as I resume my live poker sessions. Best of luck!
