Topic: Why is Ethereum so special? - page 8. (Read 7833 times)
It may become "so special" in Future. Vitalik Buterin and his team announced that they are planning to burn some of ETH. In plans to take fees from app based on ETH blockchain.
ethereum has many advantages. other than altcoin which has second rank other than btc. eth is also used as the main parent erc20 used for the creation of new tokens. other than that eth price is quite stable
I think you know Ethereum has a different method for costing transactions depending on their computational complexity, bandwidth use and storage needs. Also faster transaction. Ethereum has a slightly different economic model. i think thats why it is special
Eth is well accept and well established already. Smart contract easily can be done through the eth. Waves just a project.. All icos based on eth.. Very small time gone to execute a transaction.
Ethereum has already established itself very deeply in the altcoin and even in the entire crypto world. It has made a big name already as the top coin promoting and offering smart contracts. For now, no other alternate cryptocurrency in the market can match the influence and power of Ethereum. This coin is already worth at least $28 Billion right now. And it might still grow bigger and bigger. Waves comes next.
Ethereum is easy to use and can easily understand, especially if you are a newbie and just starting into alternative coins. Other platforms have already adopted ETH which does make it more versatile and available to other users. Also, ICO's started to boom due to ETH technology which is seconded by WAVES, but the ETH still has the upper hand on this. The only thing I don't like with it is the GAS thing which I'm having a hard time to understand and to compute, I know it is for transaction fees and the like, but it would be much easier if they simplify it, and things got more complicated with EtherDelta, where almost every move you make has a transaction fee.
Ethereum has seen a huge rise in its adoption as the platform new startups use in implementing their projects.
However, there are other platforms such as Waves that can do the same things Ethereum does ( even easily as Waves does not require any programming skills). Why can't new startups use the Ethereum alternatives? Is there any uniqueness in Ethereum that other platforms don't have? What makes Ethereum the in-thing?
with many famous celebrities whose advertisement for ethereum then eth is getting known by many people and is getting trusted and many want to have it so that's one reason ethereum so special However, there are other platforms such as Waves that can do the same things Ethereum does ( even easily as Waves does not require any programming skills). Why can't new startups use the Ethereum alternatives? Is there any uniqueness in Ethereum that other platforms don't have? What makes Ethereum the in-thing?
i think that the plaform that ethereum provides is very secure and stable and easy to use for these raising alt-coins.
Vitalik did not 'Invent' Smart Contracts. Nick Szabo first coded them in 1996, Vitalik just slapped his code on the blockchain.

There's a reason Satoshi never introduced smart-contracts onto the Bitcoin Blockchain, it causes ridiculous bloat and unusability.
Ethereum can't even handle ICO launches without practically grinding to a halt, and its barely been in use for 2 years, and that's without any popular 'dapps'.
Within another 2 years it will utterly unusable.
This is a very useful contribute. I didn't know that fact. And I agree that within two years Ethereum as it is now will become unusable.
Because it has good community and still has a lot of growth potenitail. It is upgraded faster than a bitcoin and also the smart contracts are very good, you can also make ico on ethereum
Good question.
Ethereum was the first platform that makes Smart contracts where people today can issue their own token on it.
Is the only platform that works so well and people trust the most, it has a solid hardworks team we can trust and in the future.
Ethereum today is so special especially that most ICOs are issue their tokens on Ethereum network.

many people who do not want to leave ethereum although now many nice altcoins, in addition to many variations of eth is also a lot of info that attracts people to have it However, there are other platforms such as Waves that can do the same things Ethereum does ( even easily as Waves does not require any programming skills).

Because ethereum have a good reputation already. Its is the no.1 trusted altcoin.Aside from that the platform of ETH is tested and promising unlike the other altcoin. And it has its vision to stay and be known in the market of digital currency. Although the price of ETH is not much as high as the bitcoin that why some ICO use it.However, there are other platforms such as Waves that can do the same things Ethereum does ( even easily as Waves does not require any programming skills).

That is true, ethereum have a great reputation and already tested and a very popular compare to the other altcoins.
i believe ethereum is popular as long as ICOs are. someday it all might end
i have always asked my self that question until i asked a someone who is a real cryotomaniac and i can summerise in the following because it is the most sustainable coin in the crypto world it has a powerfull blockchain and trusted protocol and it has a secure yet so easy wallet to use.

ethereum better than waves and ethereum easier than waves...However, there are other platforms such as Waves that can do the same things Ethereum does ( even easily as Waves does not require any programming skills).

ethereum high price and good platform
In waves platform you can't take your tokens to exchanges, you can only change it to Waves token, as I heard
Erthereum is second the best coin after bitcoin, is very easy for use. ETH is devoid of errors. I reccomend erthereum and also a lot of people have a good opinion for it.
Ethereum is the only project developed very good infrastructure platform is friendly for everyone, ETH has transparency that why some ICO use it.
I do not think its special but its popular because it has fast confirmation times or faster Block times and the use of smart contracts makes it a favorable for other projects to build their crypto-projects and I think devs are readily available to implement any new code that makes it more robust and efficient.
Ethereum is getting really popular nowadays in the crypto world.
it is getting popular but not growing in value, keeps trading in the $280 - $ 350 price range and its been like this for quite a long time. Jump to:
