The Ethereum could just be a kind of token. That can be used as a currency. Ciggrett is used as currency in prisons.

Absolutely, ethereum can play the role of a new litecoin. Actually, that is what it currently mainly is: just another better's token on exchanges. The "smart contract fuel" thing seems to be a far souvenir of the old days - this was what I was pointing at tongue in cheek.

Ethereum is then as much "smart contract gas" as bitcoin is "currency": not. Essentially betting tokens on exchanges, and the "crypto tech" behind it doesn't matter much. In fact, ethereum is somewhat better as currency than bitcoin, because it is faster. But Litecoin is so too.

The Ethereum is different from the litecoin. It is under constant development. Some big companies are using the Ethereum.

The Etheruem can be both a currency and also a token or fuel for the smart contact. It has more functions.

They are two different coins for different usage. Bitcoin is a currency while the Ethereum is a fuel for smart contracts.

Well, if ethereum is fuel for smart contracts, then for sure people are storing a lot of fuel in their wallets

They must be planning on using a lot of smart contracts. They are absolutely not thinking of the monetary value of ethereum, they are just scared they might run out of fuel Grin

Careful with lighters with so much fuel around...

Ethereum is the future of crypto, bitcoin is not.

You know, it's possible that both are apart of the future of crypto?

Both coins have a massive amount of work being done and ideas being pushed around, I see innovation with both coins happening every week.

Due to the nature of crypto and especially with the big coins, BTC and ETH, the coins attract development just because of peoples investment in them.

In a way the high values for BTC and ETH secure countless hours of work from developers and experts all over the world, it really is a synergy of money and intelligence.

With so much to lose with either chain falling behind, it's unlikely we'll see the number one spot taken, but at this point I also cannot see the number two spot being taken either.

For sure, these two coins are here to stay.

Good targets to aim for anyway with new coins. It shows that to target the top you need to go really far.

I don't think that Ethereum is a future crypto currency, Now still bitcoin is a first and most popular crypto currency than others, Also we accept it now a lot of people don't know about bitcoin but in that all situation bitcoin is still better than Ethereum.

It depends on the further development of the bitcoin and the Etheruem. If one of them has more support, it will be the number one coin.

Probably not, ETC is a sinking ship no future whatsoever.

It's a stinking sinking ship indeed however the ETC criminal coin has served its purpose. It allowed the DAO attacker to pocket the money of all the Spoetniktards who supported the criminal chain. Soon back to where it belongs, $0.00. Allah willing.

If the ETC big whales dump the ETC in the future and the DAO hacker also dump, then the price will go lower.

From the current price and volume observation, it seems there is no big dump of the ETC for the last few days.

ETH will allow $2T of underground economy to become more structured (and possibly less underground) through DAOs.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2013/04/23/americas-2-trillion-shadow-economy-is-the-recessions-big-winner/

If it captures 1% of that $2T, it is equivalent to $20B, which would put ETH somewhere around $150. Those who sell for $2 will shit bricks, eat sand and may even commit suicide in the years to come. If it captures 10% of that ETH will be $1500. I know it sounds crazy, but so did the Internet in 1995.

Once it's launched their main focus will be on scalability, which I think is the real reason crypto is not ready for mainstream. Once they can handle 100K TPS (and I'm sure they will), it's game over.

How can we really trust this? I bet this is one of the supporters of ETH or maybe more one of the closest fo the developers. I love how ETH rised but still in comparison with bitcoin it will be a long shot.

Ethereum is younger than bitcoin but ethereum is doing great right now. Its price looks good. But we cant say ethereum is greater than bitcoin. Bitcoin created if im not mistaken 2009? And tested by many years. Ethereum is just started at 2014. We'll see that when ethereum atleast at 5-7 years of operation.

Ethereum will not exist that long!
This coin was a scam from the beginning but with the bailout hardfork to save mostly whale investors and devs for financial desasters, because of investing into DAO, it became totally useless due to loss of immutability.
It's living because traders speculate with it.In a few this coin will have disappeared and it's dev team will probably pull another scam or just relaxing somewhere on the carribean beach and slurping mai-tais.

I do not think so. The Ethereum will survive until at least converting into PoS from PoW. But I am not sure if it will survive after.

If the Ethereum continue to PoW for the next few years, also combine the PoS, then it might be a popular coins for many people.

If it combines the PoW and PoS, it will attract both miners and stakers. But it might have the problem of both PoW and PoS.

Isn't the strength of Ethereum good for crypto as a whole and a compliment to each other? It seems that the crypto ecosystem should be more than just about speculative investment. It should be about the furthering the capability of technology and finance to be more secure and more universal. AOL & Yahoo probably scoffed at Larry and Sergey in the beginning, but all Google did was enhance the ecosystem of the net, creating efficiencies and building new technologies. No different here.

That is right. That is the reason that I mine and also buy some Ethereum. I think Ethereum is good for the whole crypto world.
