I think there is room for Ethereum and Bitcoin to co-exists for a certain time.
Ethereum will probably surpass bitcoin market cap in the following days (only 8 mio marketcap to go !). Ethereum tokens will follow and pump too. If I had some btc available, I would split them into the top ten ethereum tokens. Ethereum will also probably become the default pair for the ethereum tokens, instead of btc. In fact, it would be more logical ...

So ethereum has more transactions than bitcoin ( probably atleast 50% times more, if you include the tokens that aren't taken into account ), more volume, and i've sent a transaction that got first confirmation in ~15seconds.

you should not be surprised. This is the most unpredictable market ever. Maybe ethereum will be 1M instead of bitcoin?

Great ? ahahah  

And why would a shop accept ETH ?
It's not a currency.. they are "fuel tokens" for making Smart contracts work.
You profiteers are buying scammy ICO coins and you don't even understand the gimmick.

..good luck with that

This crypto-crap is just a swirling vortex of idiocy and greed.

@mining1
Launching a scammy ICO is "low"
And so is bashing a guy every chance you get over his gud haircut.
Hypocrisy much fraud boy ?
The kettle might be black bruh hahahhaha 

I was also optimistic see both volume on http://www.coinmarketcap.com of Ethereum volume over passed that of bitcoin first time today. It is a great breakthrough for ethereum as it  happened very easy. In market capitalization, I think before the end of this week it might surpasses.

It wasn't an attack. It was a truthful statement. The guy carries the ethereum name around and tries to capitalise on it. But the guy admited it himself that he left BEFORE the project even started. Basically he's a founder because he was in the same room with vitalik and other ~50 people and were talking about the future of the project. And he left because they REFUSED to take money from VCs ( look where blockstream and bitcoin core is now ) and made an ICO instead. And now he's throwing with shit at his ex colleagues every time he has the chance. Such an amateur.

You claim to be a righteous person. If that's the case, it's impossible to not agree with what i just said.

Edit: to be noted, i don't claim he is bad at his job or he is a scammer or something like that. It's about his character and integrity, he lacks them. Attacking your colleagues over a dissagreement over funding is so low, while at the same time he joined etc, a project build by them. And he's praising it now ( while still throwing shit at his colleagues and eth ).

Also, chandler gao and other mining whales didn't support etc because they believe in it. Barry and hoskinson needed their support, and they saw an opportunity to double their money ( assuming they would have managed to flip it over ). That is why the monetary policy is ~230mil tokens, aka 300% inflation.

I always stand behind my words, unlike you and your alt Mindlescache, shithead. I also saw your "attack" on Hoskinson - it was something, which only "keyboard warrior" like you can do. You did nothing fruitful in/for this community and I bet if I put my ass next to your face people will think we're twins. 

You can't figure out ? I thought so. Please, let me enlighten you. ETH will take BTC's place and will be paired against ALL other cryptocurrencies. The trollBOX will stroke their penises to a climax when their favorite gamble will reach 0.001ETH in price. Although eth will lose BTC trading volume ( it dies if it loses first place ), won't make a difference because it will get much more volume by being paired against hundreds of cryptos and against all fiat currencies that matter.

So please delete this extremely bad argument before others see it;

There you go. Another pointless thread made by this mining1 shithead and "supported" by his alt Mindlesscache. Ethereum is and will remain a long prepared pump, which was orchestrated by the whales behind it. I'll only say one thing. If Ethereum is better than Bitcoin, then I guess ETH won't need a BTC pair? Let's see what happens with Ethereum if exchanges remove their ETH/BTC pairs?

It is just a qestions whn this bubble will burst, here I found really nice blog post that explains the situation of ethereum right now : https://medium.com/@WhalePanda/i-was-wrong-about-ethereum-804c9a906d36 by WhalePanda

He really points out some of the major issues within ethereum and also you can conclude some biggger picture of cryptocurrency and shitcoins, really well written. I will advise you guys to read it if you have time.

For a while...until it gives way to EOS. Which will be the strongest
for a while...until it gives way to Tezos. Which will be the strongest
for a while...until it gives way to Rootstock. Which will be the strongest
for a while...until the markets noticed that they were all technology stocks while Bitcoin was the only monetary stock that kept gaining value the whole time.

Eth will become the strongest currency on this planet and bitcoin will have to move to 2nd place on the market cap chart. If bitcoin can not fix the block size issue, it will be surpass by ethereum in the next few months

What ? I just stated the obvious, i thought everyone could do a thinking exercise and come up with that.

It isn't "developed better than bitcoin" when it comes to monetary properties (for store of value).

Bitcoin has superb monetary properties whereas Ethereum's are more aligned with fiat: their priority is to monetise the value in smart contracts (just as fiat's is to monetise the debt in manual contracts).

There are several long term implications of that - one of which is that Ethereum is not destined to be unique. Consequently it's subject to obsolescence as new and 'smarter' chains come over the horizon. Electronic typewriters superseded manual ones, then mainframes superseded them, then desktop PC's superseded mainframes. Throughout that time, monetary assets such as gold continued growing in purchasing power while stocks in those technology markets rotated through their phases of novelty and obsolescence.

Thats the difference between Bitcoin and Ethereum. It isn't technological, its about monetary properties.

ETH = The Electronic typewriter
BTC = The gold

Can you provide some evidence?

that's the problem as we knew that anything can happen so fast inside crypto world and most likely the one who have a big nerve will survive to this race eth is moving so fast and its really moving forward its a matter of support and development that can be introduced so real people will invest and use the system.

Ethereum as a project from the very beggining was developed much better, than bitcoin. It gets more and more support from people, companies. I think it is just a matter of time, when it will go ahead and beat bitcoin on market cap arena also

@baumT You do realise that, at this rate, in best case scenarion eth surpasses btc in 1-2 weeks and at worst in 2 months ?


Polo had an 1500btc sell wall and it got eaten like it was nothing. Yes icos cash out eventually, but they don't cash out all at once. They can't really drop the price unless too many cash all at once, which is a very unlikely scenario.

Ethereum developers are trying by all means to prove that ETH can be better than BTC. Just wait until ETH is worth more than BTC. I would say in a few years to come

Believe it or not, I don't think that those stats are too reliable. The value goes up as the coin bubbles so it's not a good time to compare.
