Well, this is the rule better things replace old ones. But I don't think it will be that easy as you and I think because BTC and ETH have a billion-dollar cap and a lot of hype around. Let's see how new projects make things better than Btc and how much hype they can creat, this process will take years.

What I know is that there is no more going back for cryptocurrency and the two mentioned coin on discuss are the top two coins and they are the ones leading. Of course, as I see things, bitcoin is getting more popular daily and I'm optimistic is going to give more value for hodlers in the future.

Why are there so many coins that have higher transfer rates than bitcoin or eth, and the fee is also cheaper than it is for increasing transfers, but I feel like more advanced coins are getting worse. . Is it now that cryptocurrency is just a place to invest and make a profit without seeing its power and meaning? I think better things will replace the old ones


Higher transfer rates, what do you mean? Fee for transaction? Or you mean transactions per second?

TPS is easy to do. There's been dozens of altcoins with hundreds of tps years ago, Litecoin is an example. Only problem is, they're not as secure. So Bitcoin may only need 1 confirmation but Litecoin maybe needs 7 confirmation. So in the end, you're talking about the same thing.

Many Altcoins have low fees because most blocks are empty which means that all transactions *no matter what the cost of the fees* will be included within the block, with large block sizes.
This does not give them preference because the more blocks, the fewer transactions, the more confirm you need. (You need one confirm in the case of Bitcoin.)

If we are talking about Bitcoin, the collapse of it means the collapse of the entire cryptocurrency exactly as happens in the paper money market if the dollar collapses.
Many tokens need an ETH which means it will exist in the future.

Yes but not Bitcoin, Bitcoin is good and the market proves it. Bitcoin is very useful even without the infamous instant coffee purchase, which LN is supposed to address to put an end to that.

First of all a centralized coin is worthless, doesn't matter how perfect everything else is. If you can make it disappear by suing or imprisoning an individual or company, or by a change of government, its garbage. So ask yourself the question, can this coin be turned off? Then you now to avoid it. Libra is nothing without Zuckerberg or Facebook. If you want to go back to trusting institutions, use a bank.

Bitcoin is based in a no trust model, it works by code and decentralization with miners and nodes confirming and spreading transactions. It cannot be stopped even if you could imprison Satoshi, which you can't anyway (smart move by the creator, to remain anonymous and then disappear).

What is Ethereum worth when a small group can undo transactions?, sure evil hackers, but it proved they can and that demonstrates its flaw. Oh and infinite supply, you should know to stay away from those...

Bitcoin transactions are good enough for most uses, and LN is going to improve things if only by taking some (menial) traffic away from the network.

Bitcoin will remain in use, it cannot be replaced easily when there are no real contenders. No ETH isn't worth it, and i don't know if people will still talk about it when it ends PoW and switches to PoS completely with its programmed fiat like inflation built in.

As the top 2 coins in terms of marketcap, Bitcoin and Ethereum I think have a good future ahead. Ethereum are releasing Ethereum 2.0 early next year where you can stake if you are holding a minimum of 32 ETH.

Bitcoin?? I think we know already the future of it Smiley. Just buy and hold Bitcoin if you really trust it and you think it will increase in the next years.

I think it's impossible for us to know the future of bitcoin since we have to consider the blockchain if they will develop it to be prolonged. Bitcoin was very dependent on the technology, the future of bitcoin depends on its network.

What if there's a coin that has a similar network but fastest of them all?
What we will react or do on that kind of scenario?

What if we buy bitcoin today and the network crashed because of some technology hindrances?
There's a lot of question that is popping on my mind if bitcoin will still exist when we get older.

If you're asking about the future of Bitcoin and Ethereum, there's a lot of opportunity coming for them every time they keep existing.

So basically, we don't know the exact and specific details about their future but we knew that it will be a huge and good future especially for us who supports them.

If you're aware of the technology itself which is blockchain, you'll know that this advanced technology has a good future and It will help us to develop our society and especially our economic rate, I hope our government study about it.

..........Is it now that cryptocurrency is just a place to invest and make a profit without seeing its power and meaning? I think better things will replace the old ones

It does not seem to be a true prediction. At least for now,..........

It might happen, bitcoin and other leading coins will be replaced but it's way too far and has a low probability. So chill, we know that bitcoin will still reigns for a long time. Shitcoins can't replace the leading coins in the market.

It does not seem to be a true prediction. At least for now,  the tendency is that Bitcoin is getting all of the attention even though the fees are high, and alts that may cost nothing to use are dying. Because transaction fees are not the most important thing. People choose what's popular, what is more frequently used, what is more stable. It's risky to use a cryptocurrency like doge that works fine for now but does not have a dev team. Such coins can have critical bugs and you'll regret you were greedy to pay a couple of dollars for something reliable.

I can't understand your thread 100%, but BTC and ETH are doing good
There are tons of coins, and if they are in the top, they are the best ones for now
Another coins have good projects too, no doubts, but price or fees are not the only things that matter
BTC and ETH are reliable, solid, have a huge dev and community support

because there are no "more advanced coins". there are only hot air and advertisement filled with lies about "more advanced coins" where in reality they are either copies of bitcoin doing the exact same thing but poorly, or they are different  but that same difference means they are weaker and have less security or in most cases more centralization.

so yeah, i also think that better things will replace the old ones but it will take at least another decade if not more to see a real "better thing" that is not just some bullshit coin trying to rip you off and become rich from your lack of technical understanding. example? etherum and the entire year of advertising "flippening". now it is nearly dead.

 I can say that there is room for change. With the way things are going with high transfer rate and new coins are building and coming with more advancement. Who knows what tomorrow holds for the existing coins.
