Topic: Hold ETH or exchange it for BTC and hold BTC? (Read 1716 times)
Staying on ETH and waiting for value explosion will provide much greater potential for profit than leave it now. ETH holders are numerous, so we don't need to worry about current value that looks quite weak.
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?

Right now it is a tough decision, i feel that in the next months bitcoin is more likely to grow but that eth is more likely to grow a larger amount, really I would just hold both, I expect sometime in 2018 bitcoin will pass 10k and eth will pass 500 usd.
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.
Bitcoin has really been progressing compared to any of the altcoins out there and even the top ones are really just trying to still stay a bit afloat due to the little support they have so far. There is so much time for those alts to grow and now that they are in their bad shape is really a good time to make some good profit off of them when they get pumped back which is normal.Honestly I am not holding any big number of ETH. I just have some of them which were bought for the purposes of gas for sending out tokens. But I love continuing my bitcoin hoardings.

I think that right now it is a good idea to hold your ETH it seems the forks are over and the party is over for bitcoin that does not mean bitcoin is going to stop growing but I do not think we are going to see all time highs every month as has been the case in the last months but ETH has been moving sideways and down for some time so it seems it is about to go up in the next months so if I were you I will hold my ETH. Example:
If you have 1000 USD worth of ETH - that's 3,5 ETH or so. 300 usd per ETH.

Always believe in bitcoin and the price of bitcoin is raising so fast and if the price continue to growing in this way then i think bitcoin obviously can hit 10k$ or more in the next 5-6 months. So better to hold bitcoin
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.
Patience is good, but for those who quickly bought back into bitcoin, are really the lucky ones cause there is so much profit right now to buy back into the altcoins at their dips cause they would definitely experience some pretty good boost after the fork, there is no doubt about that.Forks though are becoming to look pretty useless as they now sound more like scam than even the most shitcoin out there. So, we might see people not paying much attention to any fork as time goes on since I heard there would be another one in December.
After cancellation of Sigwat most of Altcoins pumping very good and if someone can afford they surely he keep Ether or buy bitcoin both are doing very good and can give some solid profit to investors because currently decision is not easy which coin good for holding I like to hold both as doing good in market
From the above question, it means that TS already has ETH. So why should be sold, while ETH also promises good profits later on. It's better to keep it than sell now.
The fact is that Ether is needed to pay for miners, basically it's enough for a certain number of coins. Therefore, I would not keep the broadcast and Exchange everything on Bitcoin. Leave only a small amount.

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.
This is obviously what anyone would really want to do at this moment. The ALTs including Ethereum has really been is some pretty bad shape for a while now and it is just best to stick with BTC for now until maybe the whole fork situation dies down. Although, for those who may have some spare funds, it is also a good time to buy ALTs anyway, since it is possible most of them would still have some chances of being pumped at the long run and hence, some good profit.Just be observant. Since there will be segwit, just try to recover the alts price first.
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.
Well, we can just say the cloud is still not clear since there is still an upcoming fork and no one would really want to take that huge chance of sticking their fingers in altcoins when a lot of people learnt their lessons from all the previous forks. The second fork is around the corner and most traders, except some with balls, do not want to tamper so much with the Alt market right now. 
I think most of them have spoken that you need to sell those ETH in exchange of bitcoin because the price of bitcoin is really going up. If you really love ETH then just go back after the fork. Traders are just getting into bitcoin because they are chance of making profit out of it before the fork. I have a ETH about 5 days ago and shift it to bitcoin and I'm glad that I made the decision earlier and did wait. You should do the same now.
in fact, every person makes a choice in his own way of conviction or or because others convince him. But I think that it will be more correct to leave the broadcast for itself just enough to pay for transactions, and everything else is better to store Bitcoin.
For me, i will hodl both, since both are good investments, i think bitcoin had already proven itself to be a worthy investment since it already surpassed the value of gold and a lot of people have trust on bitcoin, ethereum on the other still has a long way to go before it can to head to head with the value of bitcoin. With the world all focused on bitcoin, there is no doubt bitcoin will become a fortune in the future, however if a time comes that people can no longer afford the price of bitcoin, they might turn to a different currency, thus maintaining the peak value of bitcoin, i think ethereum will be one of those cryptocurrencies that people will turn to, aside from the altcoins that was produced during the forks, and still we cannot deny the fact that there are ethereum based coins, that can also sdd leverage to ethereum, still that is to be proven if they can go against thevalue of bitcoin.

I have a ETH about 5 days ago and shift it to bitcoin and I'm glad that I made the decision earlier and did wait. You should do the same now.
If I were you, I'm going to take time to sell those ETH and get some bitcoin. You can eventually get back to ETH after the hard fork, that's the reason of why many are converting their alts now into bitcoin for the B2x fork. And if you aren't satisfied with it you can just buy some more with the use of your spare money. Just ride the current trend of bitcoin and it's good on it's price now.
i will hold both, BTC and eth,
because BTC and Eth has a potential to grow
because BTC and Eth has a potential to grow
You should have exchange it for btc months before these forks occurs. I'm so proud of myself when I exchanged it for BTC.06 btc before it goes down to BTC.04 and I knew it that I'm doing the right decision at that moment.
Go swap it for BTC. Because btc is on the rise where growth is fantastic. While in ETH, what happened is the opposite. That weakness keeps happening day by day.
better choose bitcoin, because their price is always skyrocketed compared to the ETH the price holds at 298-330 USD And now bitcoin cost 7000 USD even Bitcoincash beat the price ethereum
I think it's begter to hold your ethereum and dont sell it or exchange oto bitcoin if you have extra moeny you can use it to buy bitcoin. Because the price of ethereum is hundreds dollars and it's not hard to increase because it's only hundreds price. Unless to bitcoin you need to wait for sure to increase the price or become double because it's thousands price . It's better if you have ethereum and also bitcoin.
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.

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.

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.

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.

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. 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.

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
At present I would convert the ETH to btc and invest in it because considering the past couple of months ETH has not being giving the real value for money as the price is not rising much and infact it has fallen a bit. While on other hand btc is continuously rising and making the new high every time and worth to get some profits out of this rise.

Its hard to point out which of those two would able to hit up double their recent price. Doubling possible on both candidates but i would go for ETH since its price isnt still high enough compared to bitcoin which would able to reach out easily but the situation on ETH ecosystem where there are lots of ICO or coin owners do tend to dump ETH once they accumulate enough which the thing pull down the price which it cant really increase easily.For now if you do have ETH then just let it be but if you do tend to convert to bitcoin then its your choice. 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 is definitely the right one to hold right now. The recent rise has made all altcoin, including ETH, goes down. If I were you I'd sell those ETH to BTC immediately. BTC is in a good momentum right now, expect $7K-$8K before the end of the year. Besides that, there is an incentive of getting free forked coin (Segwit 2X - B2X) if you're holding Bitcoin before the fork. I predict B2X price will hover at around 0.1BTC for some time, it means an easy way to gain your BTC holding by 10%. I suspect that this fork event is one of the reason BTC price rising constantly this past month.
Tough one to answer. ETH could see huge gains in the next few years. Either way its never good to keep all your eggs in one basket. Its good to divest so either buy into the other or liquidate some funds into BTC if you really want in on it. At the end of the day its your money and only your decision to make..
For altcoins; market is fixed to USD for few months. Check eth price and Waves price they are all fixed to 4-5$ and 300$.
bitcoin price is rising and alt coin prices are dumping. what a nice ecosystem created by nobody.

That's a difficult one: Ethereum is pretty low compared to it's all time high paired to Bitcoin but it didn't go up as many expected with the October fork. And Bitcoin on the other hand is on it's all time high right now. Perhaps it's better to wait and see where Bitcoin is going in terms of correction after fork before making that trade.
On the long run? I don't know what the potential will be of Ethereum: it's stuck around it's current price for a long time now. In terms of investment, Ethereum going for 1000 dollar per ETH would mean 3,5x your investment. At this point to get that return with Bitcoin it needs to go to 18K dollars. So in the long run it looks more likely to 3,5X your investment with Ethereum then with Bitcoin to be honest but I dont know because ETH is pretty much doing nothing in price lately.
