If bitcoin experiences its much-anticipated bull run, then ether will go up with it and very likely catch up to bitcoin in percentage terms and possibly keep going, as happened during the last crypto bull run in 2021. An ether investor who is “all in” would also advise that ether will displace bitcoin in the future, and if bitcoin reaches over $100,000, that could mean $25,000 per token for ether.
I agree with the idea that ETH has a bigger potential, bitcoin isn't really doing anything all that great. We need to make sure that we are dealing with something that is taking a bit of a time, and shouldn't really be all that crazy. I think it needs to be something that will take a while, it is not going to be all that easy, we can't make that work.

I mean ETH is not near those levels yet, we are talking about something that may take a while, and because of that I honestly think that we are going to face something that is not going to be easy at all. We should consider how things could change with time, and for that to mean something we need to consider how it could grow bigger, and faster.
I don’t have any doubt that eth is potential but also btc is more potential than any other project on crypto. How we all have known crypto market and its concept if we couldn’t get any concept about btc and crypto than the crypto market wouldn’t be exist. Its true that eth has nicely developed and well established project on crypto market but i never see that not only eth but also any crypto project can surface btc. We don’t have seen any potentiality on any project which can over priced on btc.So that i don’t have any expectations like that where btc is surfaced by any crypto or currency.

Golden strat and a rule! Diversification of both risks and investments is key to minimizing the troubles to come if one of the coins won't perform as intended.
Indeed,I still don't know why there ar many people or investors that does not act and do diversifying their  portfolio
When it is given for how many years now that it is the safer way to invest in crypto market.
It is indeed safe but it should also be considered the composition in managing the portfolio, you should have more bitcoin than altcoin to avoid the risk of storing money in altcoin, so you will get a much greater chance, such as 20% in altcoin and 80% in Bitcoin, it will be very healthy for the development of your investment towards the future, especially if you invest in Altcoin which still has a centralized system, you must be careful even though coin is quite famous and hype in the market.

It will, but that shouldn't discourage others to invest not only in it, in my opinion Grin Every coin has its cases and usability.
Why need to have one coin when we can have multiple and make money on that?

Some people are maxies, some - don't see value in most of the old coins, not to mention the new ones  Roll Eyes
It's not good or bad, it's just the way it is. And it's normal.
I do think that diversification is great and do see value in other big alts. Old and reliable alts.

In the hands of a wise person will come out a wise conclusion, so in investing, I think we don't have to focus on choosing one of the coins mentioned, be it BTC, ETH and Solana, as if we have to choose the right one that is best for where we invest.

Investing in all three at once in my opinion is much better, diversifying investments in potential assets in all three is a more appropriate decision, we only need how we do risk management and portfolio management on these 3 assets, while profitable why should we bother and force to choose one, while you can invest in all three.

Bitcoin will remain top and that is the only thing that is important here .

In terms of supply, Ethereum has unlimited supply.
In terms of security, Ethereum has inferior security compared to Bitcoin.
In terms of popularity, Bitcoin is known more than Ethereum.
In terms of price stability, Bitcoin is more stable, and Ethereum gained and lost almost 42% of its value in 3 months.

You shouldn't believe anyone who claims any crypto coin will surpass Bitcoin or even catch up to it in any field, whether it's an altcoin, meme coin, or shitcoin. The only coin that has surpassed Bitcoin is Monero, and only in security.

So no, I don't think Ethereum will ever catch up to Bitcoin.
exactly the point , that is what  i believe the complete terms to use , on how to explain how and what is the comparison of bitcoin and ethreum , I am for Bitcoin always and surpassing by ethereum? lol that is almost impossible to happen .

no coins that will surpass bitcoin or else the whole crypto market dumped .

It's also the question of what surpassing means (which I think was discussed previously), but, in any case, in general terms, I think we can all agree that Bitcoin will be the bigger brother of ETH. Sure, Ethereum can give Bitcoin a run for its money in some aspects, but if looking by sheer force behind the two the winner is non-negotiable.
Bitcoin will remain top and that is the only thing that is important here .

ethereum and bitcoin are coins that have great popularity and potential in the crypto market so it is not surprising that these two coins are a priority for every crypto user, but in my opinion ethereum will not be able to catch up with bitcoin because it will not be possible considering that bitcoin is a coin with a limited supply while ethereum has a large supply so it is impossible for ethereum to catch up with the popularity of bitcoin.
As popular as ethereum is, the reality is that the majority of the transactions made are linked to the many shitcoins that run above it, so they are based on pure speculation and nothing else, but when it comes to bitcoin the number of transactions related to actual transfers of value between two parties which are exchanging a product or service is many times higher, this alone makes bitcoin way stronger than ethereum as it is seeing actual use, which makes me hopeful about the future of bitcoin and its chances of retaining the number spot on this market as long as it exists.

Yeah, meme hype comes and goes, both on ETH, SOL, TON, and now TRON, but projects with value - remain, continuing to provide utility and having a purpose. That's what matters.

I would say that centralized is a bs, because they offered a solution as POS and people accepted it, they didn't force anyone and let the public decide and the public decided it, nobody can print more ETH anytime they want, nobody can reverse it, nobody can freeze it, there is no control over it, all Vitalik or anyone else in the world can do is offer something , basically a suggestion and if we accept it then we do, and if not then it goes away, POS wasn't the first suggestions and wasn't the last, just the biggest one we accepted.

On the other hand we are talking about something that's taking a bit of time, and because of that I honestly believe that we are going to end up with a greater result eventually, we just need to find what it would be, it has to be the fact that ETH has alternatives now, whereas bitcoin is sole founder and top ranked, meaning that ETH gets its market share eaten up whereas BTC is not touched, which is why ETH can't go beyond BTC ever.

There will never be anything else neither, it is not going to be ETH but it will not be anything else neither, we are just going to end up with a much better and different result eventually and that's the most important part.

Vitalik and team used to rollback the blockchain in the past during "The DAO" hack days. It's said they took the decision without the approval of the community. Only proposed the idea on a forum and members who were part of it were able to participate. Miners only approved the decision out of their own interests. Money talks, right?

I assume the community approved the upgrade to PoS because they've thought it would make ETH faster and cheaper to use. But what they did was further centralize the Blockchain. Especially with whales and big exchanges controlling a large portion of the circulating supply. In a PoS blockchain, economic holders can influence network decisions by becoming a validator. If Vitalik and team would've made ETH a hybrid chain (PoW + PoS), things would've been better. Now the chances of overcoming (or catching up to) Bitcoin are slim. It's an inferior chain with regards to decentralization/censorship-resistance. At this point, it's safe to say nothing can "beat the King". BTC will remain the #1 cryptocurrency in the world no matter what. ETH will always be second place. I'm fine with that as long as decentralization is preserved for generations. Cheesy

Whales are losing interest in ETH. Especially with its limited transaction capacity. L2s don't bring the same level of liquidity and selection of dApps/tokens as the main chain. Solana is where the money is. Eventually, Ethereum will become a "ghost town" as people move on to the next big thing in crypto. Money talks, right? If this keep up, ETH will never catch up to BTC. Even with high demand, I don't it will make a difference when BTC is the one cryptocurrency that started it all. It has first mover advantage.

I guess it's too late for ETH to "replace" or "flip" BTC. Why not focus on making it a better alternative? I know Vitalik and team made ETH a "centralized shitcoin". But I believe there's still room for improvement. Hopefully, ETH goes back to its roots by being a truly-decentralized smart contracts platform for everyone. I can dream, can't I? Cheesy

ETH having under 1 gwei gas fee shows that it is not used all that much these days and that's not always a good thing, this is basically a good thing for people who use it, but in general it is not a good thing because it ends up with implications that it is not getting used every day. So all in all I would say that even if there was a chance for it to happen, it is not going to happen now.

The fact that it was slow and expensive made it so hard to use last bull run that people decided to use other stuff. Look at TON right now, we all know that won't be a great project 10 years from now, it is getting hype right now and that's it, and yet when we look at it it has a lot more people using it and it is not expensive for the gas fee, they figured it out somehow and ETH never did. This issue persists and as long as it exists we are not going to have people using ETH, which means that we are not going to end up with ETH getting above BTC ever in the future.

We need to have ETH be used for its network like the 2021 period and for that to happen we need a lot more projects in that network that gets hyped, if that happens then we may see it increase, if not then it will have hard time keeping even the second position.

It is very difficult for Ethereum to catch up with bitcoin in the cryptocurrency era, the very tight competition between altcoins alone takes time for ethereum to rise so that it becomes the number 1 altcoin after bitcoin. Everyone knows the crypto world with Bitcoin being the main icon, after which other altcoins appear under Bitcoin. so ethereum is only the top popular coin and it is impossible to catch up with the bitcoin trend to this day.

Yeah, it's a non-written truth, BTC always overshadows everything in its way, and that's normal, in my opinion.

ETH is not looking well for it to catch up to Bitcoin apparently, the ETF was a massive disappointment with so many outflows

as someone who holds ETH as well myself, i'm just not really optimistic about the situation of ETH let alone thinking that it will catch up to Bitcoin which I don't think it will.

the presence of the Bitcoin L2 actually should be a serious competition to ETH though since it enables smart contract for BTC though it got its disadvantages as well.

Well, we can't expect ETH to be as successful as BTC. Can we? After all, ETH is an altcoin. By definition, it is inferior to BTC. Many people like BTC because of its store of value properties. So it's normal to see demand for BTC rising at a higher rate than ETH.

With due time, ETH will be able to make its mark in the world. It's already the largest and strongest cryptocurrency in the world (after Bitcoin). As long as Vitalik and team continue to work on the project, there should be nothing to worry about. Who knows how big will ETH grow in the future? Cheesy

I agree that it is not a simple thing to just assume this would work, as we all know it is not that simple and we may not always have the best option available at all times, but that doesn't mean that we are going to just pick one and go with that. If you really want to, you could just buy all of them. You could buy bitcoin, ethereum, sol and any other coin you want and in that case if any of them does well then you profit, and that's what I do as well. These days I am not very much interested in SOL anymore, but that is a personal thing for me and not a big deal.

This is why I believe that we are going to see something changing, and nothing big will happen with that. So all in all this could be something that gets a bit more attention and could be very important. If you keep focusing on just one of them and try to find which will be the best, you will always miss out, always keep it diversified and always try to find more room for more good projects.

So far, ethereum and bitcoin are the priorities of crypto users for investment, because these two coins have great potential and popularity in the crypto market, so it is not surprising that the price of this crypto continues to increase over time, but so far I personally do not think that ethereum will be able to catch up with bitcoin because the difference between the two is very far both in terms of price and supply on the market.
