Topic: Ether or Stellar ? - page 2. (Read 3369 times)

Ethereum because stellar brings nothing new.

but it is difficult to get one share.

It's bait and not even worth that much.  Only $10 they are giving out (if they give out that much, many report getting far less).

Stellar-Stripe ("SS") have 5 billion tradeable Stellar versus the 300 million they traded out.  They're also sitting on a 99.7 premine being 99.7 billion out of 100 billion coins.

It's one thing to receive free coins and to dump.  It's another to buy coins as Stellar-Stripe pretty much controls almost all of it.  It's pretty much Ripple but with a free buy in which is popular with blackhat hackers with fake facebook accounts and third world people.  Many people are saying they acquired millions of Stellar by advertising to people in India to claim Stellar with their facebook accounts and sending it them to for $5.

i vote Stellar 

i guess people like Stellar coz it;s free

they are for different purposes, ethereum will be a platform to build decentralized software and apps or creating currencies, while stellar is more focused on a decentralized system of currency transfer it can be virtual like bitcoin or fiat.

You do understand that bitcoin was also laughed out of crypto forums at first too riiight ??

I've been around the sun enough to understand that majority is not always correct.

I like stellar,it's free for promotion.

Both are pretty crooked.

Ethereum is an open ponzi scheme ran by wealthy investors and there's the Goldmansach's connection.  To see any ROI (compared with the risk involved) on it, unless you invest six figures or more, you have to wait for Ethereum to hit billions..   when there is no incentive for subsequent investors to come in.  Ethereum videos on YouTube only have hundreds of views (minus the odd video which gets thousands) and  obscure media articles.  There's nothing there to build an million user base like Bitcoin.

By the way - it took Java and C++ a good decade to work out all the bugs and to educate a generation of developers to program in that code.  Ethereum creating a new language I think is more of a liability than a plus.

Stellar is a fork of Ripple with it being "free", the free part is almost a joke since right now it is a 99.7% premine and Stellar-Stripe currently controls 94% of tradeable Stellar at the moment (they have 5 billion versus the 300 million they issued so far).  The "SS" (Stellar Stripe) can easily manipulate prices much like the Ripple.  This is obviously a capitalization scam like Aurora was before the air drop (which made the Aurora developer very rich) and it can be compared with Marine Coin and Solar Coin and even Ripple.

SS promises they plan on distributing the remainder of their 99.7% premine but Ripple made the same claim years ago and reigned on it.  SS right now is doing the same.  They claim they are sending people $10 worth of Stellar but are sending less or none at all (accompanied with a congratulations email).  As well I don't see how they can get millions of users anytime soon, so Stellar will be sitting on a 99% premine for years.

As per the voting results, Stellar is still leading

ethereum

It seems that Ethereum will have trouble to get mass support.

Exactly. Jed has played an awesome game here. He has opened it to everyone having a FB account. So, now anyone can hold a part of Stellar and this huge mass want it to be successful. Ether lacks here... Adoption

Now we are getting Stellar free, so we will want Stellar will become huge success.

Yeah, but most of those people already tested it when Ripple had giveway 2 years ago.

Stellar has great marketing. I like the donation part a lot. Jed gives STR to organizations and then community donates money to buy those STR from organizations. It will be very generous community.

Stellar is for everyone,  it gives people an opportunity  to try and test the payment system with no investment.

I think ethereum is a bigger and long lasting project, on the other side stellar could be a viral coin with a great initial hype, but the time will tell.

I would have gone for Ethereum, but there's so much money been thrown at it that it would need to become bigger than bitcoin to pay a decent ROI.

Well, Ethereum is a new piece of software, instead of a subjectively unneeded fork. I don't intend on buying either, but Ethereum has my support. You can already write contracts, and it's pretty fun.

Ethereum will not be launched for a couple of months.

They both have pluses and minuses.

Ethereum sounds interesting but its possible it will be used only by programmers.

Stellar is Ripple fork so it has the best technology out there but there is still 94,8 billions that they plan to distribute fast so big dump might be coming.
