As far as I can understand, they are not competitiors at all... And even though no one from them looks like winner, I would say that ETH has been defeated by EOS

Lot of people went into cryptocurrency only because of the money and earning (but they'll tell you they came for technology, yeah sure) so they love comparin incomparable coins without mentioning what they been created for. Sad story

If you are student of history, BTC is not the first digital currency, but it is the fisrt successful Crypto, you mentioned ethereum, but there are many coins in the space competing and claiming to be better than BTC, so is ethereum now have many coins on its toes claiming to be better than what Ethereum have to offer

Oldest crypto with very active devs globally accepted all over the world? Yeah, I wonder why bitcoin is leader too Roll Eyes

ETH is not currency, ETH is platform.

ERC-20 tokens are not altcoins. Altcoins have their own chain, erc-20 tokens are running on ETH network. ETH is altcoin and erc20 token isn't.

Well thank you! Now that is what I call high quality reply

Your points are actually really valid... Well for the first part, ETH and LTC are accepted quite a lot too. Like you can pay with it in our (Czech) largest online electronics shop.

For the second part, I must say, that I have used the wrong wording. Should have just used simple "tokens" and not "altcoins" sorry for that

Recently, I was thinkig. Is there really any reason for the BTC to be the market leader? The only thing that is giving the value to BTC is pretty much the fact, that it was the first crypto currency.

BUT, 90% of all altcoins are based on the ERC-20 standard, brought to us by ETH. The smart contracts using the Solidity are extremly good piece of technolgy.

So my question is. Do you think, that BTC will keep its leadership, or will ETH be the winner of this year and surpass its ancestor?

No.

Since day 2 Ethereum was launched, these topics float around, when will ETH replace BTC.

Guys, ETH is not even a currency, a coin. It's a premined bomb, you can't compare this with Bitcoin.

I was talking about market capitalization, sorry for not stating it out explicitly. Sure ETH is not even 1/2 of BTC right now, but i could see more aggresive rise of the ETH price than BTC this year.

ethereum can not replace bitcoin positions, both have their respective advantages and disadvantages. we better focus to get the benefits of both, that's the real victory.

Bitcoin is the king and ethereum is the queen, so we know which are the winner of this year bitcoin is still the winner based on the capitalization of marketcap https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/ and ethereum is the queen due to however ethereum is number two in capitalization of marketcap, but actually it is just my speculation due to we are still in middle years, the final result can be seen on the end of year.

Hello everyone!

Recently, I was thinkig. Is there really any reason for the BTC to be the market leader? The only thing that is giving the value to BTC is pretty much the fact, that it was the first crypto currency. It is the grandfather of all cryptos. But we know it has its flaws... It was never designed for broad usage, it has scaling issues and so on.

On the other hand, we were given ETH. The Crypto Kitties or w/e the awesome internet meme ETH appliction is called showed us, that ETH network has issues with high amounts of usage. BUT, 90% of all altcoins are based on the ERC-20 standard, brought to us by ETH. The smart contracts using the Solidity are extremly good piece of technolgy.

So my question is. Do you think, that BTC will keep its leadership, or will ETH be the winner of this year and surpass its ancestor?

Looking at a technical analysis ETH has a long way to go to catch up BTC. I think Bitcoin is media promoted cryptocurrency, that's why it is very high valued! Almost everyone knows (even my grandmother), what is bitcoin, whereas ethereum people don't really know, if you start explaining to them 90% of all altcoins are based on the ERC-20 standard and contracts using solidity and other advantages of Ethereum, that will complicate things for them (people) even more. I think there is a long way for people to understand everything about cryptocurrency and for Ethereum to beat Bitcoin. One thing I know that the cryptocurrency is the future, but which ever one wins, I don't care!

My answer is Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrency ,not only by the development before all the altcoin. It's due to the increased in investor and usage of bitcoin in various countries. In many countries, bitcoin is used as a one mode of payment. Bitcoin is accepted by KFC and Amazon now.Ethereum is next to bitcoin and it's the queen of cryptocurrency.

If you look from the side, everything will become clear without unnecessary words. Bitcoin will not give the first place in terms of turnover and capitalization, but their main difference, that there are a lot of other projects on the air, only NEO can look more promising, which can show a good result this year.

I myself must be Bitcoin who became the number one coin in Cryptocurrency market. because I see the development of Bitcoin is increasing and has the highest price. so Bitcoin in every year must be number one.

Although 90% of the tokens are now based on ERC-20, there is no guarantee that this will continue in the long term future. Ethereum can be highly vulnerable against advanced technologies and new altcoins.

The two are similar. There are not too many outbreaks. There is only a basic synchronous operation. Of course, bitcoin is stronger than ether. After all, Bitcoin has been in existence for a longer time. The ether is growing and the future is better.

You have pointed out very valid issues and differences, but btc remains the winner because its still the preferred coin of the people, it has paved a path of result-oriented trust, and people have faith it will make up for all the changes that ongoing time requires of anything.

BTC still best option because of its limited supply only 21 million . But ethereum not having any details about max supply now showing 98 million circulating supply it may increase in future.
But as you said by USE case ethereum is largely and widely used blockchain technology till a date . Still 90% of tokens are based erc20 more over decentrelised exchanges , Airdrops and also project like crypto kitties adding value .
But we should not ignore NEO it is also taking place of ethereum . Lots of airdrop starting in neo platform . Also NEX decentrelised exchange going to launch soon.
