we know that bitcoin is our main investment and for some people, they hold ethereum too as their investment. although maybe the amount that people has for investment is not too big than bitcoin, in the long term, ethereum is a good choice to hold. I guess people in out there are held ethereum too because maybe they know that in the long term, ethereum price will increase too as bitcoin price.

The posibility of ethereum replacing bitcoin on top of cryptocurrency list is there since many investors do panic sell due to the news that include the banning of the sencond biggest investors next to dollars which is south korea. Yes the competitions on cryptocurrency is very critical right now and all we have to do is monitor how things go in the market.

It depends on how the developers of ethruem plan further to the coin, the problems carrying ETH have somehow made a huge impact for its decline in the market.
With so many new coin that are promising enough to be huge ETH must make a huge technological advancement to be able to compete with other alt coins within the market today.
It's very profitable for investment right now. But keep in mind, crypto is fluctuations, can quickly rise and can quickly descend. So be carefully if you want to invest.
Both coins are profitable in case of long term investment the only thing here is that the bitcoins price is rapidly raging up and up that's why many users are just investing to bitcoin because of the price rage and easy profits, the good thing about ethereum is when it comes to transaction it's much faster than bitcoin how?
"In Ethereum the block time is set to 14 to 15 seconds compared to Bitcoins 10 minutes. This allows for faster transaction times. Ethereum does this by using the Ghost protocol."

Ethereum may require only 14-15 seconds at average to mine a block, but it's mining difficulty is much lower compared to bitcoin, so you actually need to wait 10-20 blocks or more for the same protection you would get from 1 confirmation at the bitcoin network."In Ethereum the block time is set to 14 to 15 seconds compared to Bitcoins 10 minutes.

I believe that Ethereum has no place at the future of cryptocurrencies, there is simply no reason that people won't use bitcoin for making ICOs.
Bitcoin can act as store of value and for ICO making at the same time.
I think that Ethereum will slowly die after bitcoin feature of smart contracts will come out, there is simply no need for coins like Waves,Ethereum,Stratis, Neo.

Who are these "many" people?
I think in 2018 there are less and less people who don't believe in Ethereum future. As for me, I consider ETh to be a long term investition.
Clearly i dont want to invest my money and my effort on something that is hackable, last year in 2017 there have been many reported incidents of hacking of ETH wallets and ICO's. Unless ETH wont resolve these main problem the devs should start thinking if their buggy crypto currency will be able to surpass btc.

There was a moment last year when the price of ethereum was growing at the same rate as bitcoin. For example if bitcoin price was growing with 5%, ethereum would have the same growth. But since bitcoin started to increase up to 10.000$ things started to change and bitcoin went far ahead ethereum. Now I see that ethereum came back and keeps the run with bitcoin. I think both of them are a good investment as a medium term investment but over a long time investment bitcoin is better because it has only a limited supply of 21M. After all of those coins will be mined it is over while ethereum can produce unlimited coins.

I don't believe that many are not believing that eth is a good investment for long term holding. Seen those smart contracts and most of the ICOs are generating ERC20 tokens so it's use and value grows a lot for the past years.

Since before there were too many people already that chose ETH as a coin to HODL for long term.Ethereum is the most efficient product on the market with bitcoin. Ether's infratstructure is very vital for startup companies to raise funds for their development roadmap.
I'd prefer other alternatives. But the fact is that BTC is losing market and in a mid term it will be surpassed by other projects

to play long-term I prefer investing and buying ETH as much as I can buy, because the price of ETH is also still cheap and ETH works with some very good ICO and makes you become rich.

....
The reason ethereum may not be considered HODL material, could be due to its variable supply. We all know bitcoin's "supply" is limited to 21 million coins. Ethereum has no limits on supply, the number of ETH coins issued, which could over the long term result in it being printed ad infinitum, similar to fiat currencies of this day and age.
Its a philosophical and economics armchair debate as to whether ethereum or currencies which can be printed without limit will ever have a real advantage over gold, bitcoin or things defined in terms of having limited supply.
If ethereum is well managed over a period of decades, people may buy into its "trust" based system. It all depends on ethereum's stability and reliability over time. What its reputation is and what people are willing to pay for it.
Both are having different concepts now. Bitcoin is a father of coins while Ethereum is getting mother of Tokens. So both have there importance. And both are getting stronger due to there use.
Investment on both side will not leave u in loss.
