Ethereum is not an alt to Bitcoin. Ethereum is Web 3.0, the backend of a peer-to-peer, decentralised Web, that may one day replace the current Web 1.0.
The tokens are ETH (Ether), which could also be used as an alternative payment system like BTC, however they aren’t really. (If the Ether tokens are used the same way as BTC tokens, then they could be regarded as an altcoin.

all good points.

but no one cares.

they want the moneyzzzz.

(If the Ether tokens are used the same way as BTC tokens, then they could be regarded as an altcoin. It seems that some organizations are accepting ETH deposits as payment/altcoin because the Bitcoin network is congested. This trend might continue if Bitcoin scalability is still not resolved.)
Moreover, Dash wants to be the digital cash for the mainstream consumer market who are already familiar with online banking.
The prices seem very volatile, but keep in mind that Ethereum has long-term fundamentals; its price could go down a lot, but it will recover because of its long-term fundamentals.

Ethereum can go bust at anytime now. Bitcoin is very close to solve its problems and if not, LTC is there to fix them.

Ethereum is very different to bitcoin so even if bitcoin solves its most pressing issue, to activate segwit, I don’t think there is going to be such a huge drop in the price of ethereum and also LTC in my opinion is nothing more than a copy of bitcoin.

That is right. Bitcoin and Ethereum are complementary.

You are mixing three ingredients of the cryptospace that are not related. Ethereum did not entered the stage to fix any of Bitcoin's problems! Quite the opposite, it keeps frontiering where no other "classical" cryptoproject has gone before.
You should really checkout some DAPPs.
Litecoin is just a knockof. When it has to replace Bitcoin completely that will equal amageddon in the process.

I think ethereum is a good altcoin because it is going up and it can go up again if there is manipulation happens. Just wait for the price to touch 0.015-0.02 and buy a lot of ethereum and keep it for long term and you will have a great chance to earn big profits in the near future because of the possible pumps by the community or the manipulators.

cointelegraph's article today says to stay away as it will drop 30% in value. Everyones looking at LTC and the Segwit support. Bubbling nicely and could explode

When ethereum rose of a sudden experts suggested it's not an healthy growth. Anytime we can drop down as it's too early to experience such a growth as well volatility is found high from the first sudden increase in price.

But promoters are doing their best to market the product. Recent they manage to convince dark net to accept it as a payment method and that is main news to prices to go up so much suddenly. I think very soon they are implementing it and if that don't happen then prices may again go back to original price.

Ethereum is a very solid alt, it has defects like almost any altcoin but without a doubt it is a good investment if you wait for the moment and buy cheap after that the only thing to do is to wait for the price to get higher and get profits.

Yeah it's a good alt and it's second to bitcoin. So no doubt that most of us are into ETH. It's market cap is big enough and there's no doubt that it won't be dump very soon. It stays good and strong and your investment isn't going to be worthless for it. Just go with the flow with ETH and many are loving its smart contracts.

Friends and family and icos all talk the talk, but when they are tested is when you realize their merit; eth devs have passed these litmus tests, hacks forks etc - secondly, there may or may not be political motivation, that makes me wanna gamble my money (meaning mining quip) and then thirdly, lastly, just take a look around everything is being based off of it. It is the Amazon when Amazon was just released, and some people were still watching QVC. Ethereum IS the 2nd best crypto, I wouldn't even call it an altcoin, Microsoft's adopted it, it looks like the gold standard. Do you hear any other tech data giants talking about basing databases off of other coins? Just Ether.

Then, take a step back and think, what does one of these coins have that all the others don't

I think there's still big potential for ETH. It's been very up and down in the past but there's still a lot more to come

Fluctuations makes the crypto currency more popular and can bring many new traders in.
From one month ethereum is making the move, from $13 it went to $55+ and even now fluctuating. So I guess it has something and valuable if you want to invest.

I think it is not the start of the new pump. There is no big good news. That is just a new value finding process.

I dont think ethereum is going to pump now. Its in the stable mode and hopefully will get pumped in the future. It is a good altcoin and valuable of investment.

Finally, the time to buy more and more Ethereum! Its only 0.035 BTC each ETH right now! Grin

Sure, never miss a chance to buy some more ETH when the price is low.

Ethereum is growing silently reaching the second capital growth next to bitcoin. As users quoted it's too early to experience a biggrowth, but it has grown high in unexpected time reaching more than 50% growth in the short time period. User needs to go through the chart and decide when to invest and profit.

ETH and ethereum virtual machine, the tech behind it, has good features that enable it to do more stuff than BTC. In the long haul, it will be an excellent crypto and the price reflects this expectation. However, atm it didn't deliver much of its potential, so I think that the price won't go further. The best way to you gain more knowledge about it is following the news, this forum, and twitter.

It is still in early development stages. So it will take some time to deliver.
