Topic: Ethereum future is Bright - page 2. (Read 2523 times)

I think it is too soon to make that decision, and I haven't see any store that start to accept ETH, and then if you asked people to choose ETH and bitcoin, more people will choose bitcoin, so I believe ETH have a bright future but it won't be replacing bitcoin

Zzzzzz Bitcoin, ethereum, ripple and so on, all gonna be dead in the next years because they are too much centralised, the big miners are the new banks of crypto, set very high fee and give the minners your ass and hope if your transaction get transited fast.

The King new Altcoins gonna be fair with all people,nevermind if you have 1dollar or 1billion dollars in your wallet + no 5% or 10% for the dev team lol who can always pump and dump market with a word. + No minners who are like gods ( who gonna pay more i transfer fast and close your mouth).

We are always in centralisation zzzzzzzz

Can you please tell me what is Ethereum I really want to know these things because I am new in bitcoin. Hoping for you guys to answer my question fast. Thank you!

It seems to me that the time frame predicted is too soon, while ETH is making great progress and bitcoin seems to be stagnant because there does not seem to be a solution for the scaling issue, we need to understand if the devs and the bitcoin miners thought they were threatened by ETH they are going to approve any kind of measure to try to stay on top.

I very much doubt Ethereum will overtake bitcoin. It may exceed its marketcap at some point, but it's unlikely to ever prove a long term store of value in the way that Bitcoin will.

The reasons are subtle but fundamental.

First of all, Ethereum is primarily a technology platform, not a store of value. It's an operating system for blockchain apps and business models. As such, the value lies not in the blockchain token (as it does with pure monetary assets like bitcoin) but in the equity that floats on top of it.

That makes Ethereum hugely powerful as a technology but as useful as a chocolate teapot as a store of value because it's so dependent on its feature set. Therefore, it will go obsolete far faster than Bitcoin.

It's no accident that people are speculating on Ethereum 'overtaking bitcoin' at this point in time - it's almost the only semi-mature smart contract chain out there at the moment. But that's all about to change, specifically on 3 counts:

1. Much of the recent hike in price is due to the massive wave of ICOs which are all priced in Ether. When the wave turns around (the ICO founders start to liquidate their holdings in order to spend) then things might not look so pretty

2. Bitcoin is unique. There is only one original, launched on the 9th January 2009 - the 'supernova' of crypto. You cannot improve on that as a store of value through "better tech" unless you invented a time machine. Stainless steel is far more useful than gold, but not such a great store of value. Ethereum is stainless steel. Far more useful than bitcoin, and in far more abundance (there are already 2 chains, never mind all the alternative brands) but is simply an operating system. It therefore gets more vulnerable as an investment with time due to the tsunami of competitors that's about to come washing over the horizon, including Bitcoin-backed versions such as Rootstock.

3. Regulation. While bitcoin is almost impossible to regulate - being a pure monetary token like a gold coin - the equity that floats on top of a smart contract chain is far easier to regulate. All that has to happen is for national trading authorities to hint at regulating blockchain based ICO's and all that value will run for the hills in mass exits.

So, sure, the froth of Ether may well exceed bitcoin's marketcap at some point. But only in the way that electronic typewriters were big in the 70's. They were ok for a while for making people rich, but pure monetary assets such as gold lasted a whole lot longer.

Bitcoin is yer gold.
Ethereum is yer electronic typewriter.

I wouldn't put my money in BTC continuing in number 1 spot. It's just insane if it can keep the position with this much people coming in every day. It wasn't working long before this mini boom. But I guess I'm new to this...... :/

After the DAO hack i sold all my ETH.If they can do this once, they can do it twice.

Right now there is still room for improvement and adoption it, but any company which does due diligence will find the DAO hack a pain in the ass and look for other solutions.

I hope in the future ETH price is increase more then to day. I see analysis in Thailand tell about ETH in future price.

that's right with more and more improvements and updates comig out from this project i think eth can be more valuable in the next few years but I'm still in doubt that there's a possibility to surpass what bitcoin already achieved just don't get me wrong I'm positive that eth will bring good profits for those believers who still holding and keep buying the coin.

Etherum has a bright future, yes it does this is something I have known since the days of 11$ up to what it is today. Anyone who has an understanding of what ETH is all about will not doubt the fact the future is bright. But the issue is overtaking bitcoin which is what is likely not going to happen considering the exploit and grounds that bitcoin has conquered which is more or less a long process to cover for ETH.

Yeah I really think that it has a bright future and good to invest in,
Hope that it could pump more and see the price go higher.

It also term as the most successful ICO's that has been lunch by anyother altcoin. Its price really has a good increase rate and is becoming close to btc in the marketcap. Altough thats not the main issue but still ethereum projects had lot of functions and it is only a matter of time before it can par with btc in the marketcap only. Because even if btc would go down in the increase cap it will still be famous because it pioneered the start of cryptocurrency.

 I think the ETH has been accepted widely with more and more support form ICOs. Also ,the price of the ETH has been double and double. Not only because the ETH is basic technology of Smart Contrast, but also ETH is the basic currency in the blockchain world. The only thing wo shoud do is holding the ETH and waiting it to pump.

I think it has a good chance of being the future of blockchain technology. Many of the innovations used in the Ethereum blockchain are being replicated and improved by other blockchains and founders.

After some month I show that ether only 10 dollars but now a day its grow up to 200 dollars. I think on day ether become like bitcoin and its become a master cryptocurrency.

i have big  confidence with Ethereum's future  , when it switch to pos i think that will be an other milestone

all the thing we need to do is just hold and waitting become the  millionaires

Hi there,

The reputable website "Bitcoinist" just realease a news about the ethereum future.

And Ethereum seems to overtake Bitcoin in 2018 like the specialists said...
For the Bitcoins Fanboys, i don't try to denigrate Bitcoin because i like BTC aswell, but we cannot say Ethereum is not a serious concurrent to BTC.


Just read this article.
