The market of ETH so far is good and others predict that it will continue to increase in the coming years and so as bitcoin. Now, what we need to decide is to whether investing in ETH will earn more than investment in bitcoin and as my observation the increase in ETH value is not as higher as the percentage increase of bitcoin so if I were to invest I still choose bitcoin.

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

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?

This is a challenge. I'll base my answer from the current happenings on the rates of Bitcoin and Ethereum. Bitcoin increases in value over time. within just some couple of weeks, Bitcoin reaches its all time high. On the other hand, Ethereum is just playing on the 300 USD price bracket. ETH stayed there for some time now and is having a hard time going up. Based from these observations, BTC is the best option. However, diversifying is also a wise decision. Perhaps you could buy 1 ETH and the rest will be BTC.

People yet aiming to change there ETH to btc right now since the btc itself is on the green line and many of the people want to hold aswell stake with it so that they can earn more money with it, And to bad since we can see that the price of the eth and the alts are dropping badly. But maybe if things will be stabilize on it well most provably the people who supports ETH will came back unto it and the price will came up soon.

Honestly even I really admire ethereum and I’m one of those person supported it since then. Maybe it’s peak has come already and we don’t noticed it, we’re waiting for nothing. I have manage to sold mine to buy bitcoin at 5000$ + bitcoin price. I know that’s a gamble but at it goes at 6800$ now, how can I be wrong.

Sometimes we need to think a million times and have done it. But it’s time to move on now and look for what really is moving profits.

Sell half of your ETH and buy Bitcoins if you have no Bitcoins at all. In any case, keep your investments distributed so that you don't take a huge loss.


This thing will do if you really don't have btc and you're desperately want to have some but if you have some decent amount of btc then leave eth alone.
When you sell your eth now that will be very cheap and selling isn't a good idea, just hold it and wait for pump. Eth now is in downfall but we're very optimistic that it will recover and the rally will continue.
But of course, btc will always be a good catch to hold than any altcoins.

ETH is around 300$ for three months or so. And the bitcoin rises from 3000$ to 6600$ within 3 months. That means if some one invested 300$ ,three months we would gain nothing from ETH, whereas he could have make a 360$ profit on bitcoin.
For some reason it seemed to me that Bitcoin would be very strong to have a binding to the etherium and therefore their price should be comparable to the equivalent. But for today I realized that I'm wrong.

Take a look at the price chart for the recent weeks and you will see that Ethereum remains at around $300 while Bitcoin continued to increase further. Based on this scheme I assume that Bitcoin will rise more than Ethereum in the future and another reason for this believe is that there were a lot of altcoins introduced that failed. This probably gave a negative touch to the altcoins in general and that is why the famous ones are not increasing recently. But this can change at any time.

With the upcoming fork, it might be better to trade in your ether for bitcoins. We don't know what will happen yet, but airdrops can't really be bad can they? I know I would move my alts into bitcoins for now.

I'm prefer bitcoin since they already amaze me over three years since I trade them for the first time.
And for now their value even bigger than ever !

Invest on ETH may profitable but it's more risky than bitcoin.

that is a tricky one.
ethereum is at the moment sub 300$ and bitcoin is heading for +3500$ and is probably going up more.
i think the question is short term which holds the greater profit,
because this is what the real question is?
if we factor in the doubling of coins the trade is quite attractive

For now bitcoin is good to hold more than ethereum and the wise thing to do is to convert your ethereum to bitcoin and hold until the next correction before buying ethereum again. The professionals traders especially the day traders do this repeatedly in other to make big profits daily. When ethereum is getting pumping you should convert your bitcoin to it.

Never ask for investment advice and do your own research and decisions!!!!
I myself will always go with the honeybadger if I had to make a decision between Bitcoin and one of hundreds of shitcoins!
Imo Eth is flawed as f**k and will sooner or later be replaced.There are already other competitors out there who may do pretty much the same as Eth. And to be honest, that isn't much! The only good thing Eth has and why it can hold it's value is due to massive ICO frauds on top of it and being backed by several banksters and companies. That's pretty much it.

Apart from research seeking advice regarding investment is not a problem, until and unless the investor is completely or blindly relying upon the advice.
Research on your own and seek advice and then take your own decision.

Substitutes of ETH are there but as of now you can hold it, not all ICOs are frauds so it has still a support beside the support of big players. As per my view I would exchange it for BTC as well, risky but rewarding. Would leave 5-10% of ETH to be hoarded.

Right now, hold btc until after the fork. There will be a correction after that again. Depending on the extremity of that correction, you can switch again or just keep holding btc. The bulls might even push it upto $7k by the end of the year is what the talk is. ETH on the other hand, has nothing but the price doubling this year, and as someone pointed out, its very unlikely to happen again this year.

Right now it's not a difficult decision. Bitcoin all the way. Overall bitcoin has always been my number one pick (short/long term hold). And right now is one of the best times to hold bitcoin, we're in a crazy bold run and could very well hit the $7000 mark tomorrow. I also feel like ethereum is way overvalued therfore I don't expect it to go to $600+ this year. So to answer your question, bitcoin would be the way to go.

For me I think if you want to become 2000 dollars your money or become double maybe the best answer is ethereum because possible become 600 dollars while if you choose bitcoin it cannot double the price this year even bitcoin is good but it will not double maybe next year ..

Currently Bitcoin is touching new highs so better Hold this because Holding ETH is not giving good profit if you want to earn on short or long basis then just holding is very good ETH is not moving like Bitcoin
