Ether is a shitcoin. Most obvious pump and dump scheme I've ever seen. Anyone buying it deserves to get burned.
How gullible can you be? How stupid, actually? Coin triples in value without anyone using it. It's accepted literally nowhere except for some shit exchages. It is barely covered in the news. Dogecoin had more media attention than Ether. Nobody is looking into it. 90% of the volume is on shit exchanges nobody has ever heard of like ''Poloniex''. Reminds me of Polio (disease). Looks like all exchanges with shitty names are going to die sooner rather then later. Just like Craptsy.
Ether --> will be dumped soon.
Litecoin is the only solid and valid alternative cryptocurrency. It has existed for over 4 years and is traded on major exchanges, most importantly in China. Ether will never be traded there.
Dont say: ''bitcoinlitcoinbtcltc, why didn't you warn our sorry faggy asses? *sob sob*
'' when it DUMPS HARD and you're left holding bags of worthless Ether coin.
Sure, Litecoin might not be that active either. But it has proven itself as a valuable and useful trading instrument. If you want to invest in crypto besides bitcoin, choose Litecoin. Can't go wrong.
Guy, you might want to do a little more than looking on graphs and also research a little about the technology.
First came BTC.
Then LTC had its time, because it was slightly better technology.
Then for example NXT had it's time, because it was superior technology.
But as you see, there are newer better things coming out. And you can't compare ETH with all those other coins, because it has a completely different base. 99% of the coins use the same technology as Bitcoin and just put additional features on top of it.
But ETH does NOT EVEN NEED those bunch of additional features. It provides the possibility for everyone to write its own features on it ( or better IN it). That does not work with other coins. The features have to be implemented in the protocol itself there.
Noone knows, if LTC will stay on top positions. Maybe it will. But maybe people will simply forget about it. Same with BTC. Just BTC has the real advantage, that it was the very very first and there is already SO much adaption, that its hard for it, to die. It will probably grow, because people don't care about the lack of speed and anything. It will be solved somewhere else. I think that BTCs Blockchain itself will be less used. Instead the BTC will be transfered to something like ETHEREUM (or similar) in the future.
Maybe ETH will be dumped, maybe you will loose a lot short term, if you buy now. But maybe not.
And for a long term, you will see probably a marketcap that passes BTCs, if there is no similar technology coming out soon.
And then you will bite your ass, if you don't have any.
