Eth! better blockchain yet insane transaction fee, tell me what is better when the only thing that is used by many on this blockchain is ridiculously high? maybe as a dev you may find it better, but the many average joe's  who don't develop anything except use it as transaction won't see it that way, actually there are many better blockchain but eth is not one of them.
It is true, the fees charged are no longer rational, as if there is no other alternative that can be used, with very high costs, many have suffered losses, both new projects that cannot pay because they have to wait until the price of transaction costs can fall, if it is forced. there will be additional costs that are beyond the estimate.

usually transaction costs are not problematic now it becomes problematic, so that many are disadvantaged because many cannot make transfers because the costs are greater than what is being transferred. where this has never happened so far but now it has become very confusing.
that's why many are looking for alternatives to platforms other than ethereum, so that it can continue. Of course, with a platform that has already been implemented. there is nothing wrong with trying so that there are alternatives and monopoly does not occur.

Bitcoin as a television, it either loses its popularity or gains it again when there are some outbreaks, such as the World Championships or the Olympic Games. Most people do not pay attention to this "talking box", others cannot take their eyes off it. In any case, we are at another historical milestone in the development of the cryptocurrency industry, and no matter where the price goes - mentioning and mass education about this is already a fait accompli. And the more people know and understand the blockchain, the wider the community.

I always thought it was weird/ironic to call bitcoin blockchain technology trustless. It seems to me so much is still based on trust, trust on this trustless technology.

Bitcoin has a lot of trust. Its trustless technology has not been broken. It's been around for a long time, battle tested, and trusted by so many.

But let's see, in 10 years, I wonder where it will sit within the top ten cryptos.

Im Surprisd btc still alive
I am, on the other hand, surprised that you believe it shouldn't be.

People tend to compare Bitcoin with other cryptocurrencies based on their technology. While it is important to support what may be technologically better for you, people like this guy forget an additionally important element of a cryptocurrency. Its behavior in the market.

I'll put aside nullius's Social Phenomenon and the fact that Bitcoin is the first mover. Let's talk about the whales! Yes, that's right, the whales. A researcher of cryptocurrencies should know that besides the technological part, it's about the market after all. If we assume that a crypto has more efficient functionalities and it's better on every single way than Bitcoin in terms of technology, but 50% of the coins are owned by whales, would you still believe that it could replace Bitcoin?

Bitcoin started as an experiment and it's unique, because the coins weren't firstly distributed to whales. If a new coin came up, that was actually “better” than Bitcoin on a global scale, it couldn't have chance to compete it, because it'd quickly have whales!

BTW, I don't know any creators that mined around 4% of the system's coins and left them untouched.

ETH is one of biggest.
How can you compare this thing with Bitcoin since they both solve different problems?



Bitcoin has no utility, show me the utility?  Real use Case? 
At least ETH is the blockchain for usdt.
We do not have to do show you a thing, if we thought that you were arguing in good faith then we could try to show you that bitcoin has several use cases which are described in the white paper of satoshi and some other ones that have developed on their own, but we know that you simply do not believe in bitcoin and you only believe in ETH because some stable coins run above it, with that in mind there is no reason for us to bother and if anything the only surprising thing is that you are still here making those claims.

Give this thread a good read, OP.
[UPDATED] PSA: Most Stablecoins Can Be Frozen, Even in Your Own Wallets
There are more in Google.

About the utility by the way, my friend requested an immediate fund to me and through Bitcoins using Electrum wallet, I got the money sent to him without going out. Saved me for travel expenses plus time.

There is many More better blockchains with much better use  Cases and utility.
ETH is one of biggest.

Btc is still alive only reason for that is some very powerful and influenceal people want btc to be alive there is no use Case no utility other then speculation even to Move dark money btc is not good even to make Transactions between companies not good.

So I guess btc is alive only that some big important rich person Can speculate and dump btc on poor suckers.

So to Say to take money from people and scam them.

It's quite surprising you are trying to spread FUD about Bitcoin. I have read and reply your other thread. Just the same thing you are repeating in different languages. What is your intention to spread FUD? Turn Bitcoin useless? What happens even Elon spread FUD about Bitcoin energy-burning? Nothing, just dump it for quite some time and recovering as well. It's quite hesitating to compare Bitcoin with an Altcoin. You are doing the same thing in other posts as well. You alone can't stop Bitcoin until it's used by the community. And as you know Bitcoin community is very strong, it's not going to break very easily. So, please stop spreading FUD, if you are a loser like me, just HODL.

Stable coins only are better.
It's centralized. It wasn't the goal of cryptocurrency.

Being a pioneer does give a lasting impression.  BTC being the first decentralized cryptocurrency had been acknowledged by a different institutions.  It is approved as a medium of exchange by some countries and others see it as an asset.  It won't just simply die because someone better or upgraded version of a blockchain is around.  Remember even in software, many companies still use the older and more stable program than the most recent one due to its bug and glitches.

Nothing to be surprised to I guess,
I mean why wouldn't it be alive? There are so many people,investor and companies that believes in it,
And if you're referring to Elon Musk I think it isn't just because of him,
BTC isn't something like Doge that only gain attention because of this person BTC already have the attention of the people so it would surely survive and rise up even without the help of this rich person that you are referring too.
And just to remind you BTC has a limited supply so it have a higher chance to go up compared to those who have unlimited supplies such us ETH and Doge.

Why wouldn't it be alive? It's hard for other cryptocurrencies to surpass it, and Bitcoin being the first one is just one reason why it will always stay on top. Just look a the market, the volume, the market cap and the price and compare it with cryptocurrencies below Bitcoin. Of course, there is a point considering technology differences and others have better aspects like lower fees or faster systems for an example, but Bitcoin is holding on as well. A lot of other coins are good as investments but still Bitcoin makes the most of the market and it will certainly stay #1.

It's not the whales but the bitcoin believers and the trust they have on bitcoin that is still keeping bitcoin alive.
If nobody would have trusted bitcoin then it would have gone down in marketcap long ago but instead it's at the top.
This shows how much trust people have on bitcoin. Bitcoin is decentralized and holds value. This is the most important reason for it to stay on the top since genesis.

you are a pure shitcoin maximalist...

let's see the reality in the market, is shitcoin able to beat the dominance of Bitcoin, even many of the shitcoins suffer when the price of Bitcoin falls, so on what basis do you say shitcoin is better than Bitcoin.

Bitcoin has a good technology than other crypto currency that's why more rich ppl trying to swing the price just to make profits..  And no one can take over mate even despite of the current situation of the market even ETH in my personal opinion .. Because it always jump to the highest level after the hard fall.. And that is proven and tested so many times even before when the price is cheap. so i suggest dont insist that there are some other crypto currency that can take its place.. Especially now that still above the resistance..

if you see how the altcoins are valued, they do it based on bitcoin, not on dollars, that's why bitcoin is so important for the alts and it can't easily die... But as you say, right now we have better blockhains, but without bitcoin they would never exist.

BTC has very strong fundamentals and also a lot of the Bitcoin community that supports bitcoin until recently. until whenever bitcoin will remain alive and continue to be developed. Bitcoin is still a very new digital asset, but its effects are being felt today. Bitcoin is not just a speculative asset, but there are still many uses for bitcoin.

pros and cons about bitcoin have existed since bitcoin was first launched, this is common. many do not like bitcoin and many also support bitcoin. A very strong community will make bitcoin an asset of the future.

You will have an answer to your question when you find an answer for why gold is expansive? could you give me a utility for gold? Only one....
I am a big fan of altcoin as they resolve many other problems however as said on other replies, it's a shame that altcoins are not following a fair lunch anymore... I mean what is the point of all this if it will end up with no hard capped tokens where the price is set randomly and the distribution is more the 60% to founders...

So you are claiming that ETH is the best blockchain with use case and utility while Bitcoin does not have a use case and utility, start using Bitcoin and then write the review.

Btc is still alive only reason for that is some very powerful and influenceal people want btc to be alive there is no use Case no utility other then speculation even to Move dark money btc is not good even to make Transactions between companies not good.
What do you mean by dark money, illegal transaction and you think that the rest of the cryptocurrencies will block if anyone is making illegal transactions  Roll Eyes.

So I guess btc is alive only that some big important rich person Can speculate and dump btc on poor suckers.
So to Say to take money from people and scam them.
If you have that kind of convictions who is forcing you to be in the market  Roll Eyes.

That's cause there are a lot of people that are still using it in the market and it has the utility to back it up. Not to mention that bitcoin is already proven to be used as a means of payment for a transaction with the 10k Pizza as the first evidence.

Buying pizza with bitcoin is now enshrined and became a great history in the world of bitcoin, I think from this community strongly believe bitcoin, as well as having advanced technology, very potential in the future brings change in the financial sector.
