Topic: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? - page 6. (Read 14316 times)
For me it will become threat if many people use ETH rather than bitcoin.Bitcoin sinks in to users mind that no matter what happens they will only use bitcoin even though that ETH has an high value and even it grows it will not be in the level of bitcoin.Even though there are many users of ETH still bitcoin is the frontliner pof Cryptocurrency.
threat?!!!, they have different characters and etherium work in support of BTC,so, I don't expect them to have a clash.maybe the direction of the threat you mean is not clear enough to me.
As they both have different platform so, I don't think that Etherium is a threat to Be,, But as Etherium price is increasing so it is possible to reach the BTC value and even cross it
Come on, it is not a war, it is value competiton about technology, btc will stay forever, he is the first
No, Ethereum not better than BTC. Because the bitcoins have a power in price And bitcoin dominates all cryptocurrency including ethereum. As far i know, Ethereum only better than BTC because ethereum have a smart contract.
Name one popular DAPP. You can't. If there ever was a popular one that was used 24/7 it would slow the ETH network down so much that the developer would have to switch his DAPP to an APP with a centralized server. The ETH network can't handle an ICO without coming to a standstill. Imagine a constant standstill.
The fact is that a decentralized network is 1000s of times slower than a centralized one. As such it might be capable of doing one thing well. Like be money. Even then scaling issues for bitcoin and other coins demonstrate that even doing one thing well on a decentralized network is difficult because of the speed issues.
Curiously, despite this obvious fact, novices continue to think that the ETH network is a world supercomputer that can function as money, run multiple DAPPs, solve banking issues, run smart contracts for businesses and destroy every other cryptocurrency. To be frank that's just plain stupid.
The Ethereum Platform is interesting and might have uses on private chains and networks. Almost every news article about Ethereum is about the platform and not the public blockchain. The public chain will become so bloated and congested that it will become virtually useless.
Is Ethereum a threat to bitcoin. Not a chance.

ethereum is not a threat to bitcoin. I think new adopters of BTC will grow faster than the convertors from BTC to Eth. Plus I don't think that is possible to Etherum to take the leading position one day.
I don't know why people keep on putting ethereum and bitcoin at the same stage. Bitcoin will never be replaced by any fast growing alt coin. Alt coins will be on the second thought by everyone. Bitcoin will be the main stage of crypto currency and I can't see any threat from other alt coins as well because this is the main crypto coin.
I don't see it that way. I see them both as my future earnings, my future depends on them. They are both good as of this time. Since i started trading it makes me realize the value of money. Always thinking what if i save all my extra allowances since i started studying maybe i can afford to have atleast 1btc. But it is not too late for me. I can still have it in the future.
Ethereum is not a threat to Bitcoin. With time smart contracts will get bigger and more complicated. Complicated contracts can cause errors that can lead to ETH losses. So BTC will be more safe in a way because it's just a currency without any gimmick attachments.
Yes ethereum is not a threat to bitcoin as they have different perspective. Bitcoin is the strongest cryptocurrency and most used and supporters in bitcoin. Though ethereum has its own with smart contracts that most use in ICO project. So best use is the bitcoin and ethereum will not bypass the bitcoin. 
Not at all, infact I believe that ethereum and bitcoin compliment each other. They are a team in my opinion. They work totally different and they both do different things and well ethereum can technically do a lot more. but we will always have Bitcoin Lovers out there and Bitcoin is great it sets a great example for other crypto's we should have respect for Bitcoin at the same time appreciate what ethereum can do. I think its win win. I hold both, and I have gotten great results with both.

I think ethereum is not going to threaten the position of the bitcoin because bitcoin is the king of all altcoin, bitcoin and ethereum has a different role, ethereum having the smart contract even ethereum is the top candidates altcoin who have an important role that good development, but eth is altcoin only as same as other coins that can't beat the bitcoin.
yes i agree with you broETH will not be able to beat BTC prices
maybe one day ETH will beat BTC but that's just in case Volume is not for price 
Don't you think that ETH is can be considered as BTC's most relevant threat up till now?
Bitcoin is the most popular crypto currency with the largest capitalization, with bitcoin the best developers work, it is recognized as a means of payment. Ethereum good crypto currency but it will not bypass bitcoin
Ethereum is not a threat to bitcoin in my opinion. Ethereum is just a stepping stone of Bitcoin to improve more. Bitcoin needs a potential rival to bring out the best out of it.
ethereum may topple bitcoin in marketcap but it isn't threat to bitcoin because both have different usecases.
I do not know .. is eth better than bitcoin .. i only know bitcoin users bigger than eth .. because seen from bitcoin price increasing .. maybe eth also like that .. but bitcoin votalitas bigger than at Eth .. therefore if the amsa has bitcoin you will quickly get a profit or you will lose. But eth in my opinion is not a rival for bitcoin .. because if you have both then you will get double gain ..
I heard that the ethereum is much better than the BTC that in fact is the same as BTC but improved and that is the reason why it is rising a lot of price.
Is the Ethereum really better than the BTC? Do you believe that the Ethereum will reach the prices of BTC and even more that will surpasses the price of BTC, or that even will replace BTC?
What are your thoughts and predictions for Ethereum ??

I also heard that etherium will replace the bticoin position in the future.Is the Ethereum really better than the BTC? Do you believe that the Ethereum will reach the prices of BTC and even more that will surpasses the price of BTC, or that even will replace BTC?

This may be due to more eth fiture compared to features owned by bitcoin.
block reward bitcoin will be exhausted in the year 2040. while etherium Reward blocks can remain in Ether because it still has 15.6 million units that can be removed from the marginal increase money supply.

No, because Ethereum don't do better than BTC with transactions, they mostly have the tokens as advantage, not common usage.
They both have their own and different niche.

Ethereum has been hacked several times already in the past. There's no way it is better than BTC when it comes to security. Bitcoin has a governance problem that I think is the only real threat.
