Sounds funny to me. Bitcoin remains king, no coin should ever solves the lags, they can only do that on whitepaper but never practical. In essence, ETH is great but it's not solving any BTC drawbacks so far. Just my observations.

Its hard for ethereum to replace bitcoin place because bitcoin is king in cryptocurrency. Ethereum is good coin for bussiness because smart contract but bitcoin still favorite coin because people think its digital gold

I mean, I'm pretty sure it was intended for bitcoin to have "limited functionality"

bitcoin does not have limited functionality. it has the functionality that it is supposed to have and it is fulfilling them as it is supposed to. saying otherwise is like saying "my vacuum cleaner has limited functionality because it doesn't also cook dinner for me"!

Exactly, what makes other people think that Bitcoin have limited function is because they want or expect something more than Bitcoin is supposed to be. Those that are mentioned by Buterin are just a prospected progress that can be made possible with Bitcoin.

⁠Ethereum is an attempt to solve Bitcoin’s limited functionality, according to Ethereum’s co-founder Vitalik Buterin

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.

There are a lot of incredible projets that are trying to pick up what Bitcoin wasn't able to achieve. Ampleforth is another really cool project that talks about that too in their white paper: https://www.ampleforth.org/paper/

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

Shitcoin or not, it helped cryptocurrency adoption to some extent, no ethereum, no ICOs, no developments in cryptocurrency world (ICOs helped whether you believe it or not).

I agree with that, ETH has been helping the market to grow.
Because of successful ICO we have seen an increase of overall marketcap and it introduce as to the new project that are still here now in the market.
Maybe Vitalik has been bias with his statement because every founder would also praise their own before the other, so nothing is wrong with that.

Average block times in ethereum have dropped to their lowest level ever at just 12.5 seconds, down from 21 seconds per block.

not only ethereum, some other altcoins like that. has an effort to replace the limited functional Bitcoin. Like BCH, BTG, waves, LTC. etc. but it won't be able to change bitcoin. because all of their technology is adopting Bitcoin technology. so he altcoin was born from the bitcoin network, namely blockchain.

You are right, even the other Alts have potential to replace the functional Bitcoin. If we compare with BTC then these Alts will not be a real competitor without any doubt when it's comes to functioning and I hope ETH is focussing on its new development to beat BTC.

But ethereum is not a currency whereas bitcoin is. When these are all 2 complete different thing, how one could solve the other's limited functionality ? Even there will be a possibility for that, I could not understand why not bitcoin can do that with another BIP enhancement ? I mean if there will be a solution for bitcoin's issue then within bitcoin itself devs will implement that and no need of ethereum to be a test-rat here.

ICO is here before ethereum was announced. All altcoins are doing the work of promotions of cryptos to new people hence there will be no surprises ethereum too joining that big list. The hard pumps etehreum is the only differences from rest of altcoins.

Never think about technology behind Ethereum. But as long it can make people buy it, i will still hold. For crypto i am actually never think about technology behind it. So i just do like what traders do.

i don't believe on it since bitcoin still have more support than ETH. But yes ethereum still have a power to recover as we noticed previously during the bump of price which is it has a big average than bitcoin .but for me even though the potential is higher there's always no tends for it to replace bitcoin and it will remain second option .

Yes, it could be true, because we also cannot predict it in the future, but I believe that in the future ethereum will develop better and more supporters will come to this coin

Well, now many are trying to solve the problems of the functionality of the ETH. This is not when technology will not stop developing further.

Indeed, ethereum foundation is looking for the new developers to create the next development and research for ethereum. we know that ethereum tries so many things that getting plagiarized by another platform.

Indeed Vitalik strives to be able to complete the boundary function and this is a good thing and we must support the development of crypto in the future. If bitcoin does not yet provide security limits, Eth will endeavor to do so. We will see whether Vitalik's efforts will succeed and crypto will be bright in the future. So the bitcoin journey will go hand in hand with Eth to develop together.

Let me laugh at what you said. Bitcoin is just lucky to be the first on the line that’s what it makes its price dominating and aside from that a lot of people are still confused using it. Ethereum transactions can be confirmed for only 20 seconds while BTC takes 10 minutes, so which is the best for you? lol

You do realize that speed isn't the only benchmark right? You're ignoring decentralization and actual security. If speed is the only thing you're going to look at anyway, then go use PayPal. Also taking note that Ether isn't even actually made for payments so ETH and BTC aren't even direct competitors.

Every alternative projects are also aiming doing the same, not alone and limited with ETH, as dealing with bitcoin as the based crypto every project
needs to bring something new and improvements with what bitcoin already delivers, let it be if that's the reality but competitions along with many
promising projects will be the questions of such success.

ETH always tailing bitcoin, improvements and other functionalities will change the tempo of success.

it can happen, starting from Etherum as the Smart contract ICO, which allows Etherum to be the main platform of the token tokens. and maybe it could be a platform for a product in the future. we just wait for the development of this etherum.
