Topic: Ethereum is the future of crypto, bitcoin is not. - page 61. (Read 116501 times)
Oh my God, he was right this guy. Now the price of Ethereum 1000$ and I'm afraid he might really soon will Eclipse bitcoin.
I think Bitcoin probably has a slightly better chance of staying strong in the long run over Ethereum because of how its viewed as like the Gold of the virtual world, the safe store of value, whereas Ethereum is more about every day practical applications and this is an area where a lot of other 2nd and 3rd generation cryptos are coming along pushing things much further ahead.
A lot will depend on whether changes to Ethereum mean it can deal with such things as CryptoKitties which highlighted its current limits.

i think in long long term - ethereum will be worthwhile and safer cause it grow slowly not as a bitcoin who can grow up at one day. But Only my opinion
I have the same opinion. Bitcoin shows such a daily growth and drop in the exchange rate, which is very frightening
They are both the present of cryptos, the future of cryptos will be something new, more scalable, which probably has still to be created.
ETH will allow $2T of underground economy to become more structured (and possibly less underground) through DAOs.

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.
this is really far from reality,look at the price now ethereum cant even make half of bitcoin and why can ethereum take bitcoins spot in number1 while for years eth stays 2nd or 3rd in positioning.but im a eth fanatic too i just dont want to be frustrated so i accept that reality http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2013/04/23/americas-2-trillion-shadow-economy-is-the-recessions-big-winner/

The future is uncertain for most things - and for crypto it is even more! 1 week in crypto is a long time and many things can happen. Please take that into consideration when balancing your portfolio.

There is a great possibility for ethereum to have a good. There are many altcoins in the cryptoworld that is supporr ethereum since the platform is very essential to use. There are many platforms that has a partnership to ethereum so were still hoping to have a good future for ethereum
Surely can not say that ethereum will be future of Crypto,There are many altcoins having contributions in crypto world as well.It is possibility if ethereum will go this flow and low charges for transactions may be investors attract from it.To compete and lead the Bitcoin it needs time.
They both have place in our world, alread have 
They just needed for different purposes (BTC = gold, ETH = contracts) and thats why they will both survive
They just needed for different purposes (BTC = gold, ETH = contracts) and thats why they will both survive Yes, they have different goals and they both are needed. Now many people find it hard to imagine their lives without bitcoin and ether. In the future they will only become better and bring profit to their owners.

As bitcoin becoming a investment and not for micro payments and the forever scaling issues plaguing the system. There may be a time that bitcoin will not be the no. 1 coins. Maybe Ethereum will take over because its more robust technology - smart contracts. Even today companies all over the world has recognized its true potential and pushing for it in 2018.
And not only Ethereum, but other altcoins as well. Bitcoin will be bitcoin, no questions about that, but they will be just a investment platform because the price is too high plus, tx fees are high and very very slow confirmations. While altcoins will be considered at the next revolutionary technology that companies are all looking for.

I think that they are both have future, but different....bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency, and many people have got used to it and are pinning high hopes...and the ethereum is developing very rapidly...its future can be seen more clearly
We cannot say that because they are different in every ways. Bitcoin's purpose is not the same by Ethereum. Though Eth is more useful if you will analyze it. But then again, we cannot underestimate Bitcoin. Most people wants anonymous coins. We never know.
If anything is the future of cryptocurrency, I don't think ETH is, because ETH's processing speed is too slow. It doesn't support the demand for blockchain in the future
I think now it is going well. The speed is also adopted by ethereum. It is true that no one can take the place of bitcoin but it is also right that ethereum will also be a very good coin in the coming future. 
I am sure nobody can say thst for a certainty, however, crypto is growing in leaps and bounds everyday! May be the future of cryptocurrency is not on the market right now. May be cryptocurrency will give way to better currency, only time will tell!
What do you mean with it? Think that both are the future. But if you saying that ETH will be a leader, than I agree with you
I believe bitcoin can have the highest on the market for a very longtime that makes not many altcoins can easily catch up with bitcoin in the future, the highest price of ethereum now is 720$ compared to 16000$ of bitcoin is very far distance. but nothing is impossible, i do hope eth can defeat bitcoin in the future.
Yeah, statistically bitcoin is far ahead of ethereum regarding the price and also the number of traders who're using it. There is no doubt about Ethereum it's a very good altcoin but can't agree that bitcoin is not for the future. Bitcoin is king of cryptocurrency compared to all other coins. Two stupid threads alone today from trollypop. Why the mods allow newcomers to start threads or even bypass newb jail is beyond me. Market has changed so the troll is irrelevant at this point.
They are not newbies and they want to give trouble or something to others. If they are really a newbie, then they would have posted in Introduction or somewhere in forums.I understand your point.
Anything can possible in crypto because now most of the people are using Bitcoin as primary income that's why the price is increasing in the market. ETH has the chance to reach new heights but only time will leads us.
