Topic: Is Ethereum going to take over bitcoin in the upcoming months? - page 3. (Read 3928 times)

Only time will tell. But its possible that ethereum could surpass bitcoin. But its a long process tho. It may take years to happen. Ethereum is vey growing very quick and it could double the price later.

But distribution already exists because everyone can mine with the same video cards they use for gaming. You don't need extremely expensive equipment with over 1 year ROI that gets throw in the trash after because it has no other usage.

this is actually very good that ETH price is rising and lots of people are buying it. because whales who hold around 80 million ETH coins have to dump it to the market so that people can buy and that creates some sort of distribution and when the distribution gets one step closer to reality we can see the real sell pressure and the real effect that a 90 million coin supply can have on the price and then we can see if ethereum can even stay up at 0.001BTC or not.

you can see its future in coins with large supply, coins such as Dogecoin although being an extreme example but it fits perfectly to this situation.

no and no bitcoin will return again after this fud about hard fork will go away, this is another death of bitcoin time, which is promoted by thread like this, i don't trust anyone telling me to dump my bitcoin to fee his bagholder wallet, whoever is promoting any alt it's just a baghold that want his coin to increase in value

Well because of ethereum's price growing up so you think it will take over bitcoin,
it is too early to make opinions like that because ethereum is still new be compared with bitcoin
also marketcap of ethereum is more small than bitcoin.

Ethereum is apple to bitcoin pear, the relevant comparison is monero, that is the real competitor to bitcoin. Apple vs apple.

ETH has no chances to overtake Bitcoin this year or anytime soon because scaling of ETH network is even worse than BTC. If mass adoption of ETH goes live it will experience the same problems BTC is facing now. Then only thing that can push ETH price significantly is dapps. As a payment network it is not suitable at all.

Ethereum is very bullish nowadays, I think if bitcoin has a hard fork in the future, Ethereum will go up crazily, and take over bitcoin's boss place.

Ethereum doesn't care about someone saying hey, i accept eth here. Altough there are places that accept it, or via shapeshift. Also alphabay will implement eth in may. ETh doesn't need to be accepted by random websites to have demand, it already exists in form of gas for the platform. DAPPs/smart contracts need it, therefore the demand exists.

Do you think bitcoin being accepted as payment in different places ( but with very low volume because it's used mostly for speculative purposes ) is comparable to United Nations implementing ethereum at large scale ? http://innovation.wfp.org/blog/blockchain-crypto-assistance-wfp

Or javascript creator and mozilla cofounder endorsing ethereum ? https://twitter.com/BrendanEich/status/845028886425448448 https://www.americanbanker.com/news/web-pioneer-plans-blockchain-based-digital-ad-platform

Or santander's tokens backed by fiat ? https://cointelegraph.com/news/santander-confirms-fiat-backed-token-project-on-ethereum-blockchain

Or the ethereum enterprise alliance that actively works and develop on / for ethereum ? ? https://www.infoq.com/news/2017/03/Enterprise-Ethereum

Or the hundreds of dapps that live, beta or in work ?

Or Andreas Antonopolous, arguably one of the most important bitcoin maximalists being more interested in eth than btc and wants to talk at devcon3@ eth conference ? https://www.reddit.com/r/ethtrader/comments/61c6r8/some_vip_ethereum_tweets_to_consider/

Or the fact that the projects deployed on ethereum are worth almost 250mil usd by themselves now ?

Or the fact that there are even decentralized exchanges on it ?

Or the fact that it will be the first project to scale ? (no project currently can scale )

Bitcoin is losing people's faith. And people's faith is what keeps btc prices up. If they think it doesn't worth much, they sell. Bitcoin's utility as currency is so small it can't keep it alive without 95% speculation.

I would prefer If we could speak using numbers and facts, I mean how many websites, local shops, individuals you know that accepts ethereum compared to the ones that accept bitcoin? I know they are all based on supply and demand but the real value isn't totally based on the price.

Ethereum indeed opened a lot of doors for developers of tokens, smart contracts etc... but It's definitely not something someone would use as a digital cash.

Is Ethereum going to take over bitcoin in the upcoming months?

Bitcoin is in a bearmarket and it will only go down.
