Topic: Hold ETH or exchange it for BTC and hold BTC? - page 2. (Read 1714 times)
It seems to those who have held ETH, to be patient may make feel better. However, if we still have idle fiat. Better to buy btc and hold, I think btc continue to strengthen until end this year.
The price of Bitcoin is increasing at a very fast rate which is having a negative impact on the altcoin's.Talking about ETH, it's current price is 300$ and the current price of Bitcoin is 7450$ which is far more than price of ETH.If more increase will be seen in the price of Bitcoin then it will lead to a drop in the price of ETH.So it is more wise to exchange our ETH for BTC and hold BTC because it will provide us with more profits.People are understanding this fact and exchanging thier altcoins for BTC which is also a reason for the drop in altcoin 's price .
So, the title is pretty much self explanatory. If you have an x-amount of ETH, would it be more wise to trade that for BTC and hold BTC or will ETH rise faster then BTC?
Example:
If you have 1000 USD worth of ETH - that's 3,5 ETH or so. 300 usd per ETH.
If you trade this for BTC, you have 1000 USD worth of BTC, so 0.15 BTC or something around 6000 usd per BTC.
Which one is more likely to make your 1000 USD go 2000 USD? Will ETH see 600 USD any time soon - or let me ask it differently -> is it more likely that BTC goes 12000 USD then 600 USD per ETH? What do you guys think and what would you do?
in my own opinion much better to convert your ETH into BTC cuase bitcoin now adays is on a higher value . And as i see eth is now on a very low value compare to bitcoin but its up to you which you prefer but if i was you i will choose bitcoin to multiply my profit. Cause bitcoin has a possibility to increase more before Christmas. Example:
If you have 1000 USD worth of ETH - that's 3,5 ETH or so. 300 usd per ETH.
If you trade this for BTC, you have 1000 USD worth of BTC, so 0.15 BTC or something around 6000 usd per BTC.

I think you should switch to the BTC, the BTC will also increase because the price is high. Please believe me Example:
If you have 1000 USD worth of ETH - that's 3,5 ETH or so. 300 usd per ETH.
If you trade this for BTC, you have 1000 USD worth of BTC, so 0.15 BTC or something around 6000 usd per BTC.

Bitcoin have been progressing well compared to the altcoins. In reality this doesn't mean its the time to exchange to bitcoin and benefit. Altcoins too have the potential to grow higher in value and the same happens unexpectedly, though it cannot grow as high as bitcoin. Upon the fact it's good to read the market situation and split the assets rather than moving towards bitcoin as a whole.
Altcoins has not recovered from the 25th of October on this occasion, he has been constantly lost, Bitcoin's flying experiments are damaging Altcoins. It was not as powerful as the etherum, but it stretched to 275 dolars.

I recommend that you exchange your Alts to Bitcoins. As per the speculation, bitcoins is at its hike and in my opinion it will be a long one. Just like what happened even with the forks. But since alts have sunked a lot I say wait a bit I think it will not be wise, you will lose quite some earnings or capital that you have. And also not that wise to buy bitcoins with prices this high dude.
Just be observant. Since there will be segwit, just try to recover the alts price first.

Right now almost every trader is going through a loss when it comes to BTC valuation of the portfolio. What I wanna suggest is to use stoploss and exit altcoins for now. Bitcoin will remain bullish for more time to come. Altcoins will go more down. Right now holding on to them isn't a wise decision according to me. Alts will definitely be available at better price in coming days. So I would say cut some loss and enter ETH later when you see some signs of Bitcoin price correction or ETH appreciation.
it's all about the situation and position,
if we're talking about it right now and we do not have any position,
it would be better to hold Bitcoin right now at least until a few days before segwit2x and then we can sell it.
but if right now you're holding ETH and as we can see the price is dropped a lot,
it would be better for you to hold ETH until recover,
Bitcoin run will not last forever,which mean there will be a time for it to take a break from the run and correcting.
that is the time when altcoin pumping(usually every early new year we should see something like that).
Bitcoin is very unpredictable lately,
if you're letting your emotion take control and cut loss all of your position,
you may be lose it all instead profitting.
just stay calm and read the situation before make a move

If you had sold your ETH for bitcoin a month or so ago that would have been very smart! haha.
For now I think ETH will continue to lose value against BTC, maybe getting down to 0.02 BTC. I'm not gonna sell my ETH for BTC though. I'm gonna trade ETH though since it is just staying at $300 for along period of time it's not too hard to make ETH from trading, and I'll sell any ETH profits for BTC.
Who knows ETH might get a big pump sometime next year and gain back some value on bitcoin, even if temporarily.

I think we should keep ETH, because the BTC price increases ETH price increase is a very normal. It is likely that ETH will rise in the near future. Keep it Example:
If you have 1000 USD worth of ETH - that's 3,5 ETH or so. 300 usd per ETH.

No one can tell if which among those two currency will earn more, it will depend on the situation that the coins are experiencing. Just like for now bitcoin price is soaring high rapidly because of an upcoming fork and even the price of BCC is experiencing the same because of the fork while ETH price is not that active. I would suggest better get into an active trading instead of converting it and waiting for the price to get high.

To make a double money in the current situation seems to require long-term investment and in long-term investments any thing can happen. But I prefer to hold the ETH because the current price is quite cheap and I'm sure ETH goes 600 usd faster then 12000 usd per BTC Example:
If you have 1000 USD worth of ETH - that's 3,5 ETH or so. 300 usd per ETH.
If you trade this for BTC, you have 1000 USD worth of BTC, so 0.15 BTC or something around 6000 usd per BTC.

basing on todays value of bitcoin id say yes it is a good idea (but i think its not wise) to trade it to bitcoin and hold bitcoin for a while because i see that you can earn more profit by doing these rather than holding your etherium for nothing without even earning an interest but etherium will surely rise again soon when this bitcoin trend has done and all will be back to normal again after the fork.
With this rally I think it is better to exchange eth and ride to btc, the bitcoin price has gained momentum and keep on going up, for a long term maybe splitting to eth and bitcoin is better, but in this moment it is better to exchange it, because when the bitcooin keep on rising it will suppress the alt coin price and at that time you can buy back the eth

i am thinking the same like you and i think its better for us to know about bitcoin info so other people that want to sell their ethereum can thinking twice or they can hold until the price is increase again. but if you want to safe then i think you can sell your ethereum and you can have bitcoin in your wallet. but holding ethereum maybe the best solution for us if we can do so still holds your bitcoin and ethereum.

you should think about it again carefully because the eth price with btc so far and no one knows the end of the year or early next month btc will continue to rise, but for advice from me, you should stick to eth that you have today. I am sure eth will follow the bitcoin value bit by bit. eth will be able to compete with btc. try to imagine if you have 3.5eth = $ 1000 and if you convert it to btc you will get a little, then what if tomorrow bitcoin lower the price, imagine how much your own loss? but if you have a plan to hold it for the long-term, I think that's fine.
when you are talking about price of an altcoin against bitcoin, you should always sell that altcoin for bitcoin whenever bitcoin price is rising because in order for these altcoins (mostly bigger ones that also have a fiat market) to keep their USD price up they have to get dumped against bitcoin. otherwise they are going to rise, and that is not possible!
as an example you can see that ETH is falling hard against bitcoin and that even causes it to lose some USD value because dump travels from market to market.

Consider current price of bitcoin and ethereum, if I have $1000 or $2000. I will invest 80% in ethereum and 20% in bitcoin.
Ethereum price seems decline during bitcoin rally, it's trade at $285 across global exchange which is pretty cheaper than normal price of ethereum.
Ethereum expected to rise in the next year after PoS be activated, so it would be long term investment.
On the other hand, bitcoin price keep climbing and reach another ATH over $6900 on November 1st, wondering how much it will gain by the end of this year, maybe $7500 as the new bottom line.
I agree with you. I bought again to make some users little happy. One and only Bitcoin is real, looks like Bitcoin quick scheme to grab some benefits. Heading to $7500 and total market cap is now more than $115 Billion. During this bitcoin rally, until segwit2x alts market pretty cheaper and Ethereum act same of this crisis.

well this year (like previous years) bitcoin is constantly rising and each time price comes down it is only as a correction and only lasts a short time before price restarts rising again.
in comparison ethereum this year (like previous years) had only one or two pumps where price went up fast in a short time (less than a month) then the rest of the year was price falling down slowly and reaching lower and lower prices.
maybe it is just me but i find the decision pretty simple!
always invest in bitcoin without second guessing. but rarely invest in eth and only do it when there is a eth pump going on, and stay away the rest of the times.
