for me to do the two things, but I tried to move the ripple faster. So if you have holdings on bitcoin or ethereum you should. it is better to transfer to (RIPPLE) to secure your money and move faster to the market.

Does it matter? Both are instantaneous, it's just the confirmations that take extra but once they're sent and in 99% of cases it's fine either way. The differences between ETH and BTC are not just down to speed but what you can do with them. Eth has its benefits as a platform whilst bitcoin is bigger by brand alone, and is better both as payment system and investment (in my opinion). I back both for  huge long-term gains but it really isn't about the speed of them and both have their place in the cryptosphere.

We all are know that eth blockchain speed was much faster than btc..but ethereum blockchain will be depending on their network and traffic too. But overall, i think ethereum blockchain is faster than btc in transaction speed.

I am always amaze every time I imagine how much power does Ethereum blockchain has when processing transaction for every tokens it supported. There are millions of transactions are being process every single day. Just do the math. Decentralized exchanges using ETH blockchain plus online wallets like MEW, Jaxx, coinomi, Eidoo, etc. I always have this feeling that ETH will become number 1 someday. Who is better for you? ETH or BTC?

I think ETH is faster and flexible because we can set the fee that we want which affect the speed of transaction.
BTC is not bad also, but sometimes it stuck due to overwhelmed transaction

There are still issues with the fee structure as we know. That's why they want to improve it to some kind of auction style where everybody pays the lowest fee possible.

Bitcoin is much better for transactions ! The Ethereum network is constantly overloaded, or the transaction does not go at all !

Ethereum is much faster! Bitcoin is slow. Why only compare them in this? Bitcoin, though looks old, but he is respected many times more than Ethereum.

The two differ in many technical ways. For example, the programming language used by Ethereum is Turning complete whereas Bitcoin is in a stack based language. However, from a general point of view, Bitcoin and Ethereum differ in purpose. While Bitcoin is created as an alternative to regular money and is thus a medium of payment transaction and store of value, Ethereum is developed as a platform which facilitates peer-to-peer contracts and applications via its own currency vehicle. While Bitcoin and Ether are both digital currencies, the primary purpose of Ether is not to establish itself as a payment alternative (unlike Bitcoin) but to facilitate and monetize the working of Ethereum to enable developers to build and run distributed applications.

As you know ETH transaction faster than BTC. This is why some people say ETH will surpass bitcoin. but we shouldn't forget, there are coins that even faster than ETH. But none of coins is not even closer to BITCOIN. Bitcoin is the king.

Strange question, of course Ethereum, there is more than half of transactions, than in the remaining crypto currency
About 52% in Ethereum and 30% in Bitcoin

better transaction FEE ( cheaper ) = Ethereum
Better transaction speed (faster ) = Ethereum
i will go both with ETH but do we really going onto that?
ethereum will still remain apprentice of BTC as long as BTC insist/.
we cant do anything but to accept the fact.

It is obvious that ETH wins the race when it comes to faster transactions. The ETH chain takes only about 15 seconds to add a block to the blockchain while the BTC blockchain takes about 10 minutes to add a block to the chain. This makes ETH way more faster than BTC. Also, ether uses gas to pay for the transaction fee which makes it way more cheaper than BTC as it requires BTC to pay for the transaction fee. This makes ETH more better than BTC in terms of cost, speed and efficiency.

Definitely ETH, technology and transaction speed than BTC. BTC is the basic and lowest technology in alcoin

The speed of Ethereum transactions is a bit faster than Bitcoin, but again it will depend on the amount of gas you pay for the transaction.

I agree with you that ethereum is more faster in term of transactions but in term of security bitcoin with the block chain technology is better but I do not think that ETH will be number one .

I personally believe ETH is much faster than bitcoin, especially in the transaction but there are lots of coins which is way faster than both such as Stella lumens, last week, i transfer Lumens wallet to exchange wallet, it took 15 sec to complete, unbelievable speed.

You are right about all the things you mention eth does but I don't think it will become number 1 coin any time soon, remember that there are many projects building the same smart contract platform? remember that most of the strong project on the ethereum network are building their own blockchain and when they complete it, they will swap an migrate to their own blockchain?

Well, I have long used bitcoin, it seems to me that Ethereum is faster, I recently sent a transaction with a large gas came all in 4 seconds

It is true that ETH transaction speed is much better than bitcoin. ETH transaction fees also cheap. But it doesn't mean Ethereum will overcome bitcoin. It is not possible. Did you remember  about kittie ? That time ethereum network was too slow! And transaction fees were very high! So, Ethereum is not the winner here!
