Vitalik Buterin's quote explains everything: If Bitcoin is gold, Etherium is the oil.
You measure your wealth with gold, everybody likes it and it is more famous. However it has less purpose than oil.
You use oil for almost everything. It is not a wealth measurement thing, but has a real purpose.
Now change above sentences: gold with bitcoin and oil with etherium
Think about all these arab oil rich people. They sell their oil and buy cars and even toilets in gold plate.

Every time I think about it, I'm increasingly beginning to think about saving my investments and funds in the Etherium, because this project is super stable, because in the last half of the year I did not see the ether fall, so I advise everyone to do it make
people compare Bitcoin to Ethereum, and although the technology is similar, the goal of each is very different. Bitcoin has proved itself a popular cryptocurrency, but Ethereum is close on its heels (the number two cryptocurrency in the world) and has a much different functionality. while Ethereum provides the ability not only to transact through blockchain technology, but also to create and execute contracts and even generate funding for new projects or startups
Bitcoin is a payment system that is digitalized and free from central or government regulation. And while Ethereum does share these qualities, it’s much more than a payment system
I use both coins and it seems to me that they complement each other. These are not competitors. I use the ETH to make quick payments and the most of my assets I keep in bitcoin. This is one of the most convenient and safe assets imo.
Will BTC be replaced from ETH in future? Because as of current crypto market, demand for the ETH is higher than BTC due to various kind of ICO projects.
Without doubt BTC is still the best compared to eth, and there are a lot of reference to back this up like the market value charts and cryptocurrency rankings. Aside from that we are well aware that bitcoin is much more acceptable than eth and is preferred by more investors.
Ethereum not will be more valuable than bitcoin because ETH it's not a payment solution.
The BTC have a good command, plus the circulation of the tokens is small, I think that the ether will grow in 2018 to $ 5000 and the BTC to 7000$.
Bitcoin will only be replaced by ethereum if it will be banned worldwide but I do not see any reason for ethereum to overcome bitcoin just for ICOs, yet, bitcoin is much more famous.
All I see is a great future for ETH because the way ico token are adopting is very strong. Btc is a great and it will continue to be.
bitcoin is already on its peak but now i can see ETH is gaining market share. That's can be the reason why bitcoin is not increasing. But 1 thing we can't forget that all we know at first place is bitcoin.
if bitcoin remains problematic and transaction delay and high transaction value. probably will be replaced by eth. yes, the end of this is a lot of complaints for all transactions and cost issues on bitcoin.
no eth will not replaced to BTC. because BTC price is more and mainly adoption on BTC is more BTC will never replaced to eth
Will BTC be replaced from ETH in future? Because as of current crypto market, demand for the ETH is higher than BTC due to various kind of ICO projects.
Not at all because they have their own features. Ethereum can only replace Bitcoin on coinmarketcap but not its value because bitcoin has a very limited supply than Ethereum.
A lot of altcoin say that they can beat Bitcoin or have better features than Bitcoin, and I believe some of them will actually surpass Bitcoin, given that what they offer are not for the purpose of scamming investors. Bitcoin has honestly gotten slow and expensive which has resulted in many people turning their backs on it and looking for an alternative.
i think this is can't be true. maybe in market ETH and BTC like a rival. the price is so high and stable. but as we know bitcoin is a trusted crypto currency and ETH like a follower. so maybe bitcoin can't be replace by any coins. many coins show up this day. and is because of bitcoin they want to follow bitcoin to be a success digital currency.
I don't trust btc anymore. I have a transaction which is unconfirmed past 1 month . This is why i don't like to invest in btc anymore. Infact I even started searching for bounty Campaigns instead of btc signature Campaigns. I am pretty sure that ETH will surpass Bitcoin one day and that day is not far . I still remember that my friend had told me to buy few ETH's when the price of 1 eth was 11 USD
Please, you must try to check your transaction status if you have put around 0.0000001 btc for your transaction and that will never be confirmed. But from the technical preview and your amount must back to your account. But ethereum is only the one can compete with bitcoin right now. Ripple becomes the second option for that.

Similar thread has been posted here and it is being said that both differs in its applicability, apart that everything is based on competition, if more of ETH is demanded this not diminish BTC use.
Countries are planning more stringent regulations on ICO, so ICO will be regulated and the price of ETH will start to fall, and countries will gradually start to accept BTC, so the price of BTC will rise.
This is a good speculation and I strongly believe that this will happen, countries that are new to cryptocurrency will prefer to use bitcoin than any other altcoin because its name is established and the value may rise instantly anytime from now. Jump to:
