No they are different things actually. Bitcoin is just to have value in digital asset, but ethereum has smart contracts (keeping information on chain). They will serve this crypto world differently. Pricewise, if bitcoin rises, ether will rise too. They're not working against each other.
Ethereum will go up in value over a long length of time. Investing in Bitcoin gets more results for the time being, Ethereum cannot threaten Bitcoin.

It's still a competition considering that each coin have its own market cap which sometimes cross to each other and making it as it is a competition to attract the funds.Dex exchanges will suggest opportunity to fix your tokens in btc amount!
However, quite interested with that information, might find it out later.
Long term investment is always but you have to keep up to date with the market because sometimes good coins are not supported by developers for long time and holding those coins for long time may lose your investment.I have always been very successful in short and long term investment still i am holding BTC,ETH,NEO,BCH,XLM,EOS,MIOTA,TRX for long term but also keep check on the projects of these coins.
I believe that Ethereum in no way threatens bitcoin and will not be able to surpass it. Yes, the popularity of Ethereum has increased with the help of ICO but also this popularity has now fallen. bitcoin has shown its huge impact on Ethereum and Ethereum is not able to compete with bitcoin.
Choose a project that have a good team and do some research about them. Good team have a high chance to be successful.
I think that it is not a real threat but who knows. to my mind btc is better than ether because it is more powerful and it has more chances to substitute the standard currency
the example is if we buy bitcoin in january then the price is high and we keep it until now because the price is not rising we are desperate and decided to sell it, obviously we lose but if we are patient we may be able to generate profit because bitcoin still have big chance to exceeds its highest price
Long term investing is profitable if the coins that we hold are good with a good potential. I am holding Bitcoin, Ethreum, NEO and Litecoin. These four are very good and very promising as well.

I might not agree to this base of some fact that HTC has been in existence before ETH though this doesn't state the fact that it's better but looking at the Cryptocurrency world the existence of BTC reflect in so many ways which means other Alts also depends on it so the rate can affect all part of Crypto and so far it's the most trusted coin I can recommend to invest in.
"Ethereum a threat to bitcoin" - I so don't consider. It is necessary to look at schedules of BTC and ETH and everything will become obvious: ETH is weaker than BTC since ETH very badly looked in recent months, and BTC didn't fall absolutely. These are coins of different level.
Bitcoin is the best and will be the best, there are no big potential coins that threaten Bitcoin because Altcoin is also still influenced by the price of Bitcoin, even many Altcoins fall even though Bitcoin rises or stabilizes, so I also don't think that ETH is a Bitcoin threat. ETH must pay attention to other coins that can threaten it because there are coins that can replace it as the peak of Altcoin. Ethereum is a threat to bitcoin? Yes it is. We all know that ethereum was created by a russian programmer on 2013, and it was launched on 2015. After 3 years it is next to bitcoin in terms of popularity and value.
Let me show you some NBA perspective on this, bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrency right? same as LeBron as the king of NBA. But here comes ethereum the prince of cryptocurrency just like Ben Simmons as the prince of the NBA. The prince will dethrone the king on the eastern conference finals same as ethereum that will dethrone bitcoin in the next couple of years. Wether we like it or not the king will reach its limit. Mark my word. Trust the ethereum process!

The comparison that you do is very interesting for us to discuss, but this is the business world. Who gets a lot of money and gets a community that many of them will become kings.
Bitcoin and Ethereum are not suitable if we compare them to the royal system, but are more suited to a democratic system "Free".
We cannot force other people to choose which coins we like, but they freely choose coins. In this case, maybe other coins like BCH, EOS, or DOGE will become the king of cryptocurrency. Remember "Free to choose".

Btc has been rather stable - it is still traded for not less than $6,000 - so don't you think it is still the king of crypto market?
Nobody knows what will happen in the next 2 years (as you say), but I believe that Eth will not be as popular as bitcoin.

If you want to long term investment, you have to choose popular coins like first 20 in market volume because there is very big risky. long
Also investing in bitcoin and wait for long will surely give you a high amount of profit.
I don't think Ethereum is threatened by bitcoin ! bitcoin dominates the market and no one can move it from its rightful place !
There is a very high probability that the ethereum coin will decrease to the third place in the rating of the coinmarket. In such a situation, ethereum does not exactly threaten Bitcoin!
Bitcoin cannot get threatened by Ethereum because the community with Bitcoin has more professional business within it. There is a bunch more money in BTC than Ethereum. Jump to:
