Topic: ETH vs BTC (Read 1220 times)

Eth and Btc was best cryptographic coin at this time.Btc rate high and high in year.Eth not bad....

I would say bitcoin its original form of cryptocurrency is made to replace currency in the form of crypto where ethereum is platform where you can create smart contracts or tokens in this platform and ether or ETH is currency.

In my opinion, Bitcoin is the king and Ethereum is the prince. Regardless of the value, Bitcoin will always be better than ethereum. I am not saying that Ethereum isn’ t good at all but it isn't better than bitcoin. Though the value of bitcoin is very high, which makes it very hard to invest in and the risk is very high but at the end of th e day it will always be the best.

indeed eth value still pumping up as well as bitcoin. but i'm not sure that eth value would able surpass btc value in the future. yet it's still a best a good investment on eth for a future

Eth and btc will coexist.  Market value I think ethereum will have more room to grow.

ETH doesn´t constitute a threat to BTC,BTC is much stronger because it is more widely used and accepted,
IMO ETH  is very boring with all those rare and difficult concepts to understand for the average user,gas,smart contract,fuel,DAOs,etc...,regardless of which is better originality  belong to BTC,so that for the moment ETH is only another alternative to the initial approach and instead of worrying about reaching to BTC should be worried about not being removed from second place in the list.

I think here ETH is better option to have for the trading because in the bitcoin fluctuations is high to about 20-30$ easily daily  which is not a better deal for the traders , But in the ETH coin daily fluctuations is about 3-4$ but this amount is a big amount in comparison of the ETH real price .
And also herr i am fan of the ETH coin because i am a trader of the ETH coin ( daily buy and sell ETH at exchange ) , here i myself using bitcoin as a medium only for the trading .
So without going against one, use both of them in your way to make profit .

Yeas but after Segwit ativation BTC allso is going to be NEXT generation while it will have less problems than ETH.
ETH is more cetralized coin and changes are more easy to apply. ETH have POV - where is Vitalik there is ETH.
BTC is decentralized if you ask who make decision in BTC you can not in reality point finger on anyone while in ETH that is Vitalik.
Once Vitalik will be gone who will know what Etherum is real one ETC or ETH ? To me ETC is real one etherum but because of proof of Vitalik
we call ETH that fake one.

BTC is the founder of everything there is in crypto. It is the one that initiated and started everything. The blockchain technology was started by BTC. That is why the rest that followed BTC's footsteps are called alternate cryptos or alts. ETH on the other hand is a split from ETC. They are both alts, just the same.

I would spread your investment between both of them.

BTC always will be the standard and its value and adoption is more consistent than the marketing of ETH and the ico. btc wins now.

Both are good depending on the usage as well as depending on what aspect you are looking at. I suggest that you should have your own reasearch about these two. Many will answer here that BTC is better or the other way around not knowing that these are bias answers. So in order to have an equal insight on BTC and ETH, researching them in a reliable source should be your best option.

This is a matter of preferences. I like Bitcoin the most and that is that.

And yet there are some things really different. Bitcoin is now not having tons of hours to get the transaction confirmed and yet the transactions are far from instant. Ethereum transaction get confirmed within minutes if I'm not mistaken. This point is a disadvantage of bitcoin. As for the opposite, ethereum allows people to do a lot more with it, then btc does. As a result, eth code is so comples that there is always some 'blank space' that makes huge hacks possible.

Well, there is some clue about the next ethereum update in the future such as casper. I've read the whitepaper and it seems interested for me. ETH is a competitor for bitcoin and not for bch

Bitcoin BTC The Original
Ethereum [ETH]   Next Scam

choose wisely 

See the fate of bcc now? It is just an example, it is a natural law that the strong will prevail.

Pros and cons definitely happen, opinions may be different. But the choice remains in each person.

Enjoy for those of you who still have btc in the wallet. Btc will soon go to the moon.

bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency that people around the world know.
they may have heard about eth since they spam the news but they never know it or care to look at it because they have no use for it whereas bitcoin is a currency which they can actually use!

bitcoin is the most secure coin that has never had any serious issues and no hacks or bugs in the code that leads to any losses (don't confuse an exchange getting hacked or you losing your wallet with bitcoin getting hacked).
ethereum has had at least 1 huge exploit called DAO which is never fixed and can happen again if someone intelligent enough comes and uses the smart contract exploit again. there has also been smaller ones. and on top of it all their official wallet was easily hacked and people lost millions of dollars held in multisig wallets.

bitcoin has a good and logical supply and a logical distribution with a set cap from the start.
ethereum is limitless. the supply knows no end. it will continue to be generated and make the market cap number become a big bubble. the rate at which it is being created is ridiculous. and as i said it has no cap.

the blockchain size of bitcoin may be big but ethereum's is huge it soon will be twice bitcoin and that means less nodes, and only centralized master nodes finally fully centralizing ethereum.

Well in terms of ICO it is primary used, it is what asked in wallet whenever we need to be participants of that campaign and followed by Waves. It is indeed popular since many wallets ,developing apps created for it. And its value have great potential to increase too.

Ethereum might has technologically better use cases. But don't forget Bitcoin enjoys first mover advantage and even though there are only 16 million Bitcoins and ETH has approx 93 million of supply, in terms of marketcap it is quite behind where Bitcoin is and is quite impossible for ETH to overcome that as for now. Bitcoin and Ethereum are completely different beasts and they aren't competing directly.

I think ETH have more potentiality,
you can see the new project develop on the ETH system
it prove that more and more devs was focus on ETH blockchain
