Topic: ETH and LTC which is valuable ? (Read 1808 times)
OP should be happy today if he invested in either one of them. Although LTC would have been better.
Well the so called younger brother of bitcoin is closing the gap really fast. LOL. But I'm sure that someone is just pumping LTC now, more than 200% increased already. I still stick with the old reliable ETH, a lot of promise in the future. Specially companies are eyeing its smart contract.
I'd say the LTC can't catch up with ETH as far as the price goes. However, if you want to get money on LTC, its too late because the price is already at the top and expect some dumping in the next couple of days.
at the forum bitcointalk today a lot of information has gathered about where the huge growth of the air is predicted for the price. 15,000 dollars I was even embarrassed, because I never expected that ETH would reach such a maximum price. I'd say the LTC can't catch up with ETH as far as the price goes. However, if you want to get money on LTC, its too late because the price is already at the top and expect some dumping in the next couple of days.
ETH is much more usable and popular, so i'd say ethereum

Can you state what ltc offers apart from been the younger brother of bitcoin. Definitely nothing to offer from the coffers of ltc
Ethereum on the other hand has so much to offer through its smart contract platform. It has now added a gaming side to it.
Icos will always be there. So is gaming.
Ethereum will always remain in demand and thus valuable

Two weeks ago I would say that this is Ethereum. But now, holy cow, LTC showed its power and don't want to stop.
It may look that it is not going to stop but there will be a limit for it just wait for it. Though LTC reached a new ATH too at $200 before but now it's really freaking sure of $326. That's a big increase for LTC but still I would assume that it's still safe to get into both of it. They are profitable so why you would only choose one of them if you can stick to both of them together.
Although both ETH and LTC are valuable, I'm confident that ethereum leads more. ETH is more valuable than LTC and more trustworthy. But that doesn't mean one should ignore litecoin. It's best, in my opinion, to invest on BTC, ETH as well as LTC. The greater the variety, the greater the options and ways to earn more money.
I believe the most valuable one of the two is ETH, and showing constant growth. LTC is only recently started showing signs of life, and how long with that last..
I think both are valuable. However, they are quite different in their nature.
LTC is very similar to BTC that its more a storage of value and a mean of transaction. Actually, it is better than BTC in terms of transaction due to the speed and cost of transaction
ETH is special because of the smart contract functionality. It also opens the door for all the ICO now.
However, the price trend of LTC is much better recently.

Ethereum definitely.
It's important when discussing ETH to differentiate between Ethereum the Platform and ETH the token. It seems that many investors don't understand that these are two different things.
Ethereum the platform definitely has value. It's a package that uses a blockchain (The public one generally is not used) for a database instead of more traditional databases. It might have uses where multiple companies need a common database that is decentralized for tracking purposes. These will be private blockchains; although, in some cases the public might havelimited access at a read only level. Unfortunately, when you buy ETH the token you don't own a piece of this potentially useful plateform.
ETH is a public token created by the Ethereum Platform. The ETH network has demonstrated that it is of limited use and not capable of living up to the hype. Technically, it's just not possible to run 100s of DAPPS on a decentralized system. The ETH network runs 1000s of times slower than a cell phone processor. The problem has been demonstrated during ICOs and more recently the Virtual Kittys DAPP clogging the memory pool. Imagine if several popular DAPPS being used worldwide 24/7 were developed. The ETH network would be a complete failure. We have all experienced problems with applications connected to centralized systems failing due to server load, these servers are fast and still can't keep up during peak usage. The ETH network will never keep up.
The fact is that decentralized systems are extremely slow. These types of systems might be able to do one function well; but, not multiple functions. For example they might be able to be money. It's already clear that doing a single function, like being money is difficult because of speed. That's why scaling issues exist and are such a hot topic in the cryptocurrency community.
These scaling issues suggest that multiple complementary coins will be part of the scaling solution. The solution will also include small blocksize increases within limitations of a decentralized network and second layers that use blockchains like LTC as a settlement layer.
LTC is intended to perform a single function (be money) and a single function is what a decentralized system might do well. This is a advantage as the system will not be crippled with other functions like DAPPs.
The Ethereum Platform has potential value and usefulness outside of cryptocurrency; unfortunately, that is owned and controlled by the Ethereum foundation and the public can't own a piece of that. ETH the public network isn't capable of performing multiple functions on the scale required to support multiple DAPPs. LTC as a decentralized network can perform a single function well.
Based on the above the Ethereum the Platform has potential value. ETH has little value and it's problems will continue to grow. LTC has value.

Apart from Bitcoins which has proven to be consistent in price appreciation, which of these two coins, ETH and LTC you think is most valuable.
I'll put my trust on ETH since its been my second choice after Bitcoin. ETH's price has been improving in the past few days and its been widely use by some ICOs so I can't think of any other altcoin that could replace BTC in the future aside from ETH so for me it is more valuable than LTC.
I think many people see things as one vs the other, but in terms of the value brought to the table, I think LTC is the most undervalued here. It's a further advanced bitcoin at this point with faster transactions more upside. Even if bitcoin is perfectly fine, I think LTC being its little brother makes sense for the ecosystem. And I think the ratio is too low for this reality right now. I like ETH but it's over hyped and overbought at this point. Just 2.5% moving from ETH and BTC to LTC doubles the price.
Ethereum of course, most major cryptocurrency exchanges would pair BTC with ETH.
For me LTC is more valuable, because in the first altcoin ever. Just like bitcoin, one day he will encounter a period where LTC will booming like BTC.
They are both valuable in their own ways, but Ethereum is out to do much more than Litecoin, which aims to simply be a currency with fast and cheap transactions (which ethereum will also have). Invest on both, but if you have to pick one, go for Ether.
ethereum is very technical. Therefore, it is better. It's 50% of all transactions in the world. A lot of companies are behind ethereum. BUT damn why so relish the light grows. I don't understand. You'll see soon it will cost 1000. But I'd take a better eth
No doubt Bitcoin is the king of crypto. ETH is much more valuable then the LTC. ETH is the Queen of Crypto currency.
Two weeks ago I would say that this is Ethereum. But now, holy cow, LTC showed its power and don't want to stop.
