Topic: Ethereum is new BTC - page 2. (Read 1309 times)

It will get limitation in the future or the next year, Vlad already made the paper to give the more explanation about the pos casper which to determined the total supply of the ethereum in the future.
Ethereum will be moving into the pos system. Ethereum was better caused by there is no politician in there just like bitcoin and bitcoin cash or even bitcoin gold.

Eth is good after BTC and of course it never replaces Btc. But it will not stop growing because most ICOs use it.
BCH increased so fast that many people hoped for it. But everyone should understand that BCH is not a long-term investment.

Exactly. ETH is a good coin, no doubt, but saying it will replace BTC is a while another thing. Right now the rivalry between BTC and BCH is causing the drop in price, but I think btc will soon recover from it.

At least the head of the Ethereum boss. Since it does not have a multi-headed structure, control is only vitalik .

The price target for ethereum is estimated to be $ 1,000 for the year 2018. I don't know if this is a realistic expectation but why not?  I have been keeping Ethereum since the beginning of 2017, I do not sell it. Ethereum isn't the new BTC.  I think, much more advanced technology than BTC,  but BTC is a very popular first.

    This is not a reason to buy or Hodl btc at all. you are looking on wrong side. BTC is first coin on blockchain  but there is no one good reason to buy or hodl btc anymore. Transaction fee is expensive and so slow. Just think first car. they had no good engine and they were slow. Tell me if you have money would you still use an old car or will you buy a ferrrari or lamborghini ? if you are against capitalism and dont want to buy it i will understand you but this is different. Go to past but not so far like 30 years. everyone had a homephone but who use them now ? we all have super smartphones, why ? cuz they are so fast and with good technology. Even we dont use our smartphones for calls or messages. why ? cuz there are whatsapp, telegram and other apps , they are cheap and fast . you just need internet even they use kb , so cheap.
   Its same all time. Something come to our daily life , than we use it and than something new , better , cheaper and faster come so we start to use new thing. You can Hodl btc cuz you wanna make money with it. nothing else. I dont know even if you remember NOKIA, are there still someone have NOKIA ? or wait wait ICQ ?

Its time to face to reality. BTC will go down and investors and btc holders will buy ethereum.

Just let you know there is an ICO on 27 Nov. , INS . Softcap is 30k eth and hardcap is 100k eth. People will need eth to invest an ICO but no one need BTC in reality. Go and buy ethereum.

Ethereum is a potential coin but as of now even the price of bitcoin decrease it will ne still no.1 in the next few years for sure. But maybe ethereum is one of the possible new bitcoin in the future because they have many projects and partners.

20x profit? If you are buying ETH right now you will need the market cap to reach 600 billion dollars when the current market cap of all the coins is less than 200 billion dollars, so you are either waiting for some massive pump or you are going to hold for fifty years or a ridiculous long term like that, the truth is that ETH is a good coin but it is not even close to surpass bitcoin.

It's hard for me to understand people who find ethereum as an economical instrument just like silver, platinum and gold. Ethereum is just a tools folks. If it will make 20x in the long term, this won't be before 2030, I guess.

Ethereum is not like bitcoin anyway.

Ethereum is a very good altcoin but it's not new BTC. There is no new BTC.
You can still invest in Ethereum and wait 20x profit. $300 x 20 = $6000 It's not too hard to reach for Ethereum in the long run.

Ethereum is not to replace BTC,but it is one of the leading coins.

It's not just that.
It's extremely centralized, lead by a benelovent dictator. It's "famous" programming language is not more than a tool for scrip kiddies.
And the whole structure it is based has a huge attack surface.
I'm not even talking about the premine and uncertainty if SEC may step in one day or not.
Ethereum can be formed and forced by governments whatever they want it to be.
And who ever believes this will be lead crypto, sorry but, that guys should check for any mental illness!! Seriously!!

anyone seen this on twitter ?

@rogerkver : Vitalik is both a genius and a class act.  That’s why I sold a portion of my BTC for Ethereum in addition to lots of Bitcoin Cash.

@jihanwu : I also heard that ETH idea should have be done on top of Bitcoin. Some arrogant people drive him out. Is that true?

If ETH can get adoption in the same way Bitcoin has for day to day use (which Bitcoin hasn't got there either yet) then yes it can hold its own. I don't think it will replace Bitcoin but also someone has mentioned about it being infinite. Yet for most of the people I have been working with and talking to lately with ICO's are over 90% on ETH20. Which is a sign of a trend that will continue, also the cost of transactions and the smart contracts make it one that is preferred by many ICO's.

Don't think we will see the end of Bitcoin anytime soon but certainly the rise of ICO's seem focused more on ETH adding value to it.

Can you name few of those many reasons?

The way I see it ETH has alien technology compared to BTC, much more uses, transactions are much faster and cheaper and so on.

What do you think is BTC's advantage over ETH, besides the fact that it is the first cryptocurrency ever made?

BCH can not survive in top 2 cryptocurrency   if the Bitcoin drama caused an accident i think the best candidate to replace Bitcoin is ETH, this article shows the power of the Ethereum blockchain https://cointelegraph.com/news/ethereum-continues-improvements-amid-bitcoin-bickering

Ethereum is the the real deal, too many manipulation in btc
Even more all its forks which is popping lately

ETH is great but would never replace BTC for so many reasons !

it is true, ethereum blockchain is great, there are so much based on it, but thats the problem investor ETH will be dislocated to many project based on it

I totally agree. Ethereum is the biggest threat against bitcoin. I’m hoping to see good news in 2018. We witnessed how dramatically bitcoin can rise and fall. It’s fate is in the hands of certain people. Eth is a little bit better regarding that situation .
