Topic: Will bitcoin be replace by ethereum/ripple - page 19. (Read 18941 times)
Bitcoins will always be in the first position in the crypto currency world, and no other crypto currency will take the place of the bitcoins as bitcoin is the parent of all crypto currencies and other alternative currencies are following the principles of the parent bitcoin with an additional feature. As we can see from the history of crypto currencies the price of bitcoins cannot be compared with other alternative currencies as alternative currencies have a steady growth whereas bitcoins have increased number of growth in the crypto world.
There is no chance Bitcoin is going to be replaced by a shit coin like Ripple, but on the other hand it can be replaced by a coin like Ethereum who has immense potential and whose future looks the brightest. With so many real world use cases and adoption rate through the roof, I must say that Ethereum can replace Bitcoin.
Ethereum has been use widely for ICO purchase which have given this coin a high recognition. And also ripple has been on test for her technology in financial institutions to use since it can process trasactions than bitcoin. Will these two coins replace bitcoin and become number 1 on the coinmarketcap
Bitcoin will always remain on the top of all coin. It ‘s uniqueness and power through internet throughout the world could never overtaken by any other coin. Bitcoin is The most trusted coin ever.
Ethereum was the shining star of 2017. He has been constantly growing and he continues to grow. There may be the main reasons for this. Ethereum is currently competing with Bitcoin as a blockchain base. He has advantages over Bitcoin. Transaction times are much shorter and transaction fees are much lower.
Same time; Bitcoin emerged as an alternative to the price currency. But Ethereum chose to be the source blockchain for digital money. This allows Ethereum to be preferred by developers. If you look at mining, the better the equipment you use in Bitcoin, the more advantage it is. As Ethereum has chosen an indexed production for its graphics cards, the differences between miners are diminishing. It's becoming a fairer distribution. This is one of the reasons why Ethreum is preferred. These features appeal to people.
Ethereum can not cross Bitcoin. But it will be the greatest competitor...

I do not think that in the near future! Need more time and more development! Bitcoin and ethereum / ripple can be replaced by good engineering and more!
Even hardfork coins can not beat bitcoin, I'm not sure eth will beat it in the crypto power chain.
there is no good reason to trust other coins. ETH will still be the second coin in marketcap.

Bitcoin can't be replaced by any altcoins... Never... It got it all... Excellent Total supply... It the most popular... Many great company are investing and making use of it Blockchain and come to think of it... BTC Is The King... It leads while others follow
I don't think so. All alt currencys are pegged to btc. If you want to swap , you almost always go via btc. If you have to pay tax, then pegging it all to btc would also be probably be done. Changing it would require divine intervention, even if the successor is better .
It's like trying to get America to change from miles to kilometres. It's engrained into the backbone of this industry now.

the Bitcoin is the king of crypto,Bitcoin still has very large dominance over them and I see it only getting stronger in the future. it is very difficult, bitcoin will not be replace by ethereum/ripple.
Ethereum or a newer smart contract platform might overtake BTC, but I highly doubt that would ever happen.
As for Ripple, just no, its a shitcoin. Why do we want to do all this cryptocurrency stuff to make banks more efficient? Do people realize that banks wont even actually use the XRP coin for the platform? Most of all, why would anyone want to use the most centralized coin in the world? It is just about as decentralized as a reserve bank.
The current rank 3 and 4 on CMC do not deserve those spots. Good thing EOS is coming to take those. Hopefully something else that is deserving can steal the other one.

it could be but it takes a long time for ETH to replace bitcoin. because the bitcoin is the most number one coin and its value is also very high from the coin altcoin. so it's not that easy to replace bitcoin
It is not impossible that this could happen if Ethereum and Ripple market capitalization could exceed Bitcoin. One reason why Ethereum could replace the bitcoin rankings is the unlimited supply of Ethereum that keeps growing market capitalization, while bitcoin is a crypto whose supply is limited so bitcoin does not increase in demand then the price will slump and lower market capitalization.
Theres a possibility for ETH to overtake Bitcoin in the long run but not for now. XRP has a slight chance. Bitcoin is consider to be the superior coin and unreplaceable with any alts.

we all have our own opinion on this, For now it is very hard to replace bitcoin but i think when the time comes and when the bitcoin is very very hard to mine and no more left to mine bitcoin, that will be the time when ethereum (we know that almost all ico project used eth on trading and buying so eth has a big potential) maybe replace bitcoin, but we can think that bitcoin maybe an antique in the future that because of the demand the value will sure sore up, we don't know what will happen in the future, but we hope that bitcoin will hit more that its peak this year.

Personally, I think other coins will surpass bitcoin in market cap for sure, but bitcoin will always be the standard and what you use as the currency. I could see ETH surpassing BTC in cap, but ETH wouldn't become the new standard, it would just be ETH = 1.6 BTC or something.
To replace bitcoin I think it is very hard but nothing is impossible, and maybe the long run could happen because of the ethereum that many people are interested in.
Maybe it is not impossible someday for ethereum to place in a higher rank but not at this moment and this generation. It is still far between bitcoin and ethereum in term of value and uses. Bitcoin is still the king of all crypto even it drops many times it always survived and rise up,it has a many uses like for payments and buy good and services which ethereum are not. Ethereum use widely specially in ICO's and the best investment also but it is not only the way to replace bitcoin throne since bitcoin already known worldwide,ethereum still at the back.
I think it is possible. It already got pretty close earlier this year to bypassing BTC's market cap. That said, the rally over BTC at the time was largely driven by ICO hype combined with BTC fork fears. ETH in its current state doesn't scale anywhere near as well as it should for a dApp platform, though it's not like investors aren't aware of this - Vitalik and others have been very transparent about the challenges involved in scaling.
So when the naysayers talk about cryptokitties slowing down the network, yeah, those of us that have been following ETH for a long time knew this would happen. Doesn't mean these issues can't be solved, though. If ETH successfully implement PoS and sharding I'm about 90% sure it will top BTC in market cap.
Personally, I've bet accordingly. 50/50 on both, and rebalance when I think it's a good time to do it. Has worked well for me...
I don't trade any of the smaller coins anymore, aside from XMR. I think there will be a big consolidation of money into quality projects if there's another crash. In that respect if you're staying in crypto I think you can't go wrong with either BTC or ETH.

yes, both are altcoins that I predict will replace bitcoin in the future. ETH has high spreading and large volume, but ETH growth is still unstable because its value is far from bitcoin and volume is still little. so ETH will not be able to pursue bitcoin prices until bitcoin supplies run out.
Ripple has a lot of inventory but spreading a little. because Ripple's purpose is the bank for now.
and both of them I think have great potential to replace bitcoin.

I have no doubt that promising ICO projects will replace bitcoin within the foreseeable future, because why should a skilled investor pay $9,000 or even more for an average coin while he can get a promising coin for only $15? This does not make much sense and shows that most bitcoin investors are simply clueless.
