Title: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: donbu7 on May 05, 2017, 04:02:14 PM I heard that the ethereum is much better than the BTC that in fact is the same as BTC but improved and that is the reason why it is rising a lot of price.
Is the Ethereum really better than the BTC? Do you believe that the Ethereum will reach the prices of BTC and even more that will surpasses the price of BTC, or that even will replace BTC? What are your thoughts and predictions for Ethereum ?? Regards Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: OmegaStarScream on May 05, 2017, 04:06:20 PM You shouldn't see it as a threat from the price perspective because It means nothing, you should however see how much Its mentioned on the news, how many shops (local and online) use it, how many ATMs does it have, how active the development is etc. Bitcoin wins in all these things beside Ethereum is not meant to be an electronic cash but bitcoin is.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Scott J on May 05, 2017, 04:13:48 PM Ethereum is a threat to Bitcoin's supremacy, though its different attributes mean it will probably not replace it.
Ethereum is not meant to be an electronic cash but bitcoin is. I'm pretty sure the line has changed to Bitcoin now being a settlement layer, rather than e-cash. I wonder what it will be changed to next? ;D Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: hankyulpark on May 05, 2017, 04:16:00 PM ETH, as any altcoin should be, aims to do things that BTC can't do. It proposes to use smart contracts to handle electronic transactions in ethereum blockchain better. It also has the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) that gives it the ability to understand and process programs natively in its blockchain. So, isn't a question if ETH is better or worse than BTC. It is supposed to different things.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: bouren on May 05, 2017, 04:20:07 PM Even though Bitcoin has high fees but long price rallies is something which makes the people to attach with it. However, Ethereum has started pumping now so I don't see any barrier that ether will soon outstand btc. :o
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: peter0425 on May 05, 2017, 05:41:37 PM Even though Bitcoin has high fees but long price rallies is something which makes the people to attach with it. However, Ethereum has started pumping now so I don't see any barrier that ether will soon outstand btc. :o One thing I have thinking is that those buying Ethereum now too fed up with the high transaction fees being incurred with bitcoin and the scaling debate has not been settled. So they are pumping Ethereum and waiting for the bitcoin drama to be resolved. But I guess they will go back to bitcoin once everything looks good. So I don't think its a threat, rather another option for investors to put their cashflow in the crypto world. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: bitbunnny on May 05, 2017, 05:45:06 PM I.don't know what that exactly means that Ethereum is much better then Bitcoin? At the moment Bitcoin is the strongest and the most accepted cryptocurrency. Of course there are issues, nothing is perfect, but to my opinion at the moment Bitcoin doesn't have some serious competition. Ethereum is totaly different story and its not the threath to Bitcoin.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: death69 on May 05, 2017, 05:52:03 PM maybe yes. But I will never consider ethereum is a threat since I totally support ethereum. Both of these cryptos help our world better and develop a good blockchain system so that other people can know about the existence of cryptocurrency on this planet. And if the world uses crypto, it will be the better place to live
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: cipherer on May 05, 2017, 06:01:43 PM I think not, because it's a niche. A public support for crypto will be in favour of Bitcoin. Bitcoin has a greater acceptance, due to the public discussion and publications. Only insiders are considering Ethereum, new entrants will choose Bitcoin. New entrants will let the Bitcoin grow.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Iranus on May 05, 2017, 06:35:55 PM Until there's a good e-currency which is also stable as a store of value, Bitcoin will remain a dominant cryptocurrency. It's irrelevant even if Ether had a higher market cap.
Ethereum is not even supposed to be a cryptocurrency, it's a platform for wider blockchain applications and is separate to Bitcoin entirely. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

It will go the way nxt and maidsafecoin and whatevercrapcoin went. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: jak3 on May 05, 2017, 06:44:46 PM I don't think ethereum coin as a thread. of course yes its price is increasing so rapidly and for that reason people are adopting the coin so frequently. it might be true that ethereum coin is better than bitcoin (at least from the transaction fees side ) but if that is the best option then why bitcoin is at the highest scale. That clearly states that nobody can beat bitcoin now with such a huge price and in addition to that altcoins are always volatile anyone can losse their money with altcoins
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: BitcoinPanther on May 05, 2017, 06:54:22 PM I do not think Ethereum had ever been a threat to Bitcoin. As people say, they are two different things, one is token and aimed for smartcontracts and the other one is a coin aimed to be a payment method. Though, I think Bitcoin is a threat to ethereum since bitcoin developer would be releasing Bitcoin smartcontract this coming June. This breakthrough will nullify the only advantage of Ethereum to Bitcoin.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: U2 on May 05, 2017, 07:10:44 PM You shouldn't see it as a threat from the price perspective because It means nothing, you should however see how much Its mentioned on the news, how many shops (local and online) use it, how many ATMs does it have, how active the development is etc. Bitcoin wins in all these things beside Ethereum is not meant to be an electronic cash but bitcoin is. Exactly. It's not electronic cash. It's not decentralized. Why the hell would I ever need any of that garbage? Oh it went up in price? So did thousands of stocks. I'd rather support them. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: mindrust on May 05, 2017, 07:43:07 PM Oh no! Don't treat eth as an altcoin! Eth isn't an altcoin. It is something different. bla bla bla
Eth is a centralized piece of shitcoin. Just like ripple. Eth and Ripple are worse than the shittiest zero volume altcoin but people don't give a fuck because somehow they are tricked (because of greed probably) into buying those. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Pattberry on May 05, 2017, 08:50:52 PM Ethereum is not a threat to bitcoin ,as bitcoin is more secure and decentralized ,but Ethereum is a pre mined coin and the scalability is still a big question as well as the security.If you are talking about the price then you still cannot compare with the giant price of bitcoin.So no coin is in existence to threat bitcoin.

Bitcoin has a greater acceptance, due to the public discussion and publications. Only insiders are considering Ethereum, new entrants will choose Bitcoin. New entrants will let the Bitcoin grow. although it is good to trade ethereum but still i also do not think that it is thread to bitcoin. to me i believe that bitcoin price will continue increase and there is no threat to bitcoin neither from ethereum nor from any other altcoin. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Taki on May 05, 2017, 10:38:51 PM There is many information on the forum about difference of all crypto currencies such as Etherum and Bitcoin. The first difference in Etherum used a bit different technology and the number of coins is much higher. I think exactly this factor will not allow Etherum to reach the price of Bitcoin. But I think it's pretty possible to Etherum take the leading position one day.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: BillyBobZorton on May 05, 2017, 11:10:36 PM No, due Ethereum being turing complete, it is a great way to end up in disaster long term, so we are never going to see ETH be a threat to BTC as a store of value. BTC's simplicity is a strong point to be the best store of value in crypto. The fact that it's so hard to change, it's also a good point to prevail as the strongest coin to store wealth.
Stop comparing ETH and BTC, different things. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Skarner21 on May 05, 2017, 11:21:32 PM I could not see the good development in ethereum the same as bitcoin.. since bitcoin is already success and nearly more new field of success will be happen in bitcoin.. ethereum is too far to reach bitcoin since ethereum is just alternative and bitcoin is the main and many company are already accepting bitcoin as payment unlike ethereum that are use only for trading purposes.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: RajaJudi on May 05, 2017, 11:58:52 PM Ethereum will never be a threat to bitcoin since this is an astonishing invention in the cryptocurrency world and I believe that ethereum was born for the good purposes. I will still love ethereum since It has brought a lot of money to me
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: LLec on May 06, 2017, 12:04:49 AM It is rising really quickly now and almost doubled in the last three month of the year already.
So it is even passing dash which was double it's price just a month a week ago. So some good hope in this one to surpass all the other alts in the cryptocurrency market. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Sled on May 06, 2017, 12:27:50 AM I don't think ethereum is threat for bitcoin because it doesn't have a big community that can overcome bitcoin and its price is too far away from bitcoin. The pump for the price of ethereum is just a small concern for bitcoin because bitcoin can still stand out for the cryptocurrencies because bitcoin is still the base price for them so if bitcoin pumps very high then the cryptocurrencies will go down.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: X-ray on May 06, 2017, 12:34:53 AM I heard that the ethereum is much better than the BTC that in fact is the same as BTC but improved and that is the reason why it is rising a lot of price. Honestly, I'd liked with his smart contract. But bitcoin still hold the market dominance. Ethereum can be determined as a real opponent for bitcoin itself.Is the Ethereum really better than the BTC? Do you believe that the Ethereum will reach the prices of BTC and even more that will surpasses the price of BTC, or that even will replace BTC? What are your thoughts and predictions for Ethereum ?? Regards But it will never surpass the bitcoin's price. The possible thing if they can surpass the bitcoin market capitalization. This time they growth a lot of already touched new ATH $100. And as far as I know if ethereum has included on legal asset based on US. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Is the Ethereum really better than the BTC? Do you believe that the Ethereum will reach the prices of BTC and even more that will surpasses the price of BTC, or that even will replace BTC? What are your thoughts and predictions for Ethereum ?? Regards I think that Ethereum is going to stay the #1 altcoin for quite a while like litecoin did and if something like Ethereum to Litecoin came out into the market and get a really successful crowdfund, then it migth take over. However it does seem unlikely that any other altcoin can achieve the status of Ethereum again because the ICO markets are already very very saturated and there are shitcoins everywhere. I don't think that Ethereum can ever replace BTC though, simply because bitcoin is the first, and that means a lot. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Even on TV and it was not about crime and money laundering :) It was about universal blockchain technology wich allready use UN It tested on electrocar charging station in Germany. I hope to see Ethereum in Tesla stations veeery soon. But not only because Elon Mask and Bill Gates are friends , but because Ethereum is digital gas. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: deadsilent on May 06, 2017, 01:06:50 AM Obviously. Its one of the strongest altcoin on market. But not that serious threat. Bitcoin ofcourse still the reigning crypto and mother of all cryptos. Price tells it all. Also supporters of bitcoin are greater than ETH. If you look at the market cap. Only time will tell what crypto could possibly replace Bitcoin.

Post by: semaforo on May 06, 2017, 01:40:04 AM I was surprised when coinbase listed ETH. Also very sceptical. Vitalik Buterin talks a very good talk, but ultimately it seems like something between the emperors new clothes and a run of the mill pump and dump with big money behind it. I think the ideas he is talking about are sound, but I see no reason why these ideas couldn't be incorporated into bitcoin, and integrate with a lot of other already existing technologies in the process.
I was tipped off when I saw an article on coindesk about a mutual fund manager who invested 10% of his net worth into crypto. He said he invested after meeting Butemin at a dinner party at his houseThe fact that Microsoft, bank of America, jp Morgan have expressed interest in it indicates to me that there is some serious big money and plenty of funds to try to pump up ETH as an alternative to bitcoin- a cryptocurrency that is easier to manipulate and presents less of a threat to big financial establishment than bitcoin. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: CraigWrightBTC on May 06, 2017, 02:17:16 PM I don't think so, ethereum has large of capitalization marketcap doesn't mean it will be better than bitcoin,
all of us know about the ETH is the manipulated chain of banksters to bail out institutional investors in the DAO accident. It is mean the fundamental of ethereum is bad for long time, but ethereum is good be traded on exchangers. ;D Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: aioc on May 06, 2017, 02:56:56 PM I believe in ethereum but I have a strong faith in Bitcoin that it will stay as the number one crypto currency,Bitcoin has come along away and still going strong and adoption is very continuous,the best parameter is if you are active on facebook majority in the news are about bitcoin discussions.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Spoetnik on May 06, 2017, 03:10:32 PM Ya know it's getting really old repeating to you guys the same crap over & over..
ETH was never intended to replace or compete with Bitcoin. Even the Ethereum supporters have said this. Such as "Andreas M. Antonopoulos" who said this explicitly on Twitter before. This is not an issue. It's not going to happen and it's not even possible because of how ETH works and what it actually is. You all need to smarten the fuck up and clue in because your being idiots. And if you won't listen to me then listen to the fuckin' ETH supporters saying it :D Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: qiwoman2 on May 06, 2017, 03:17:23 PM Bitcoin has it's own place in the digital currency Arena but as a platform, more and more businesses and asset token creators are finding ETHEREUM as an easier place to park their wares and because of the plethora of new tokens coming to ETH, it seems it has helped Eth to grab a bigger lion's share of the Altcoin marketcap. Can it take over Bitcoin? Only time will tell, but Bitcoin wins hands down at present as a wealth creation instrument for old timer whales.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Nascor on May 06, 2017, 03:19:12 PM Ethereum in comparison to Bitcoin has a higher intrinsic value (real value), it's market value (current value) will therefore inevitably surpass Bitcoin at some point
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: jeraldskie11 on May 06, 2017, 03:25:12 PM We can't compare etherium to bitcoin because bitcoin is too far from etherium. As we can see in the coinmarketcap, etheriums' market cap volume is need to thrice to reach the volume of bitcoin. So for now, there is no altcoin can compare to bitcoin as of now, maybe in the future as the time pass.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: kryptqnick on May 06, 2017, 03:51:52 PM Oh no! Don't treat eth as an altcoin! Eth isn't an altcoin. It is something different. bla bla bla You shouldn't be so rude and hard on ethereum. Firstly, ethereum is altcoin, that is a fact nobody can deny. Secondly, ethereum has its advantages upon bitcoin (smart contracts, potential switch to proof of stake). Thirdly, it does have volume. For the last 24 hours it was $200k. I think such a coin has to be considered seriously no matter what. Nobody can pump a coin like that. This means that there indeed is some value of it just like of any other good coin like btc, ltc etc.Eth is a centralized piece of shitcoin. Just like ripple. Eth and Ripple are worse than the shittiest zero volume altcoin but people don't give a fuck because somehow they are tricked (because of greed probably) into buying those. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: audaciousbeing on May 06, 2017, 08:32:39 PM Etherum in recent times has actually been making some waves which is a development in the right direction but that does make it a threat to bitcoin in all sincerity from the way I see it, its just like a young chap from Manchester United or City making waves and everybody is happy with him then we start to say he is now a threat to a Ronaldo or a Messi. Which means for me see Etherum as a threat, then there is long way to go.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: ahmedjamal1998 on May 06, 2017, 08:36:47 PM Well if you want to compare then get to all the points.
1- Price 2- Development 3- Acceptance 4- Community 5- Technology I currently think btc wins most (if not all) of those points. I only see eth as a trading medium nothing else. It can't replace bitcoins. In fact, nothing can. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: semaforo on May 07, 2017, 12:10:23 AM Oh no! Don't treat eth as an altcoin! Eth isn't an altcoin.

I think the assumption that a big enough coin cannot be pumped is definitely false. No one thought Bernie Madoff could be operating a ponzi scheme because of the sheer size of it. They were wrong. As I was saying one mutual fund manager invested 10% of his net worth into crypto. Mostly ethereum and bitcoin, presumably. Anyone controlling a mutual fund has access not just to their own savings, but the life savings of hundreds or thousands of the life savings of others as well. There are doubtless players big enough to manipulate wall Street, so how about crypto? Not saying that ethereum doesn't have intrinsic value, but this intrinsic value would make it a more attractive target for manipulation, as well as a smaller market cap. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: xuan87 on May 08, 2017, 12:08:27 AM No ethereum won't be a threat to bitcoin, it is still far away from ETH to claimed bitcoin place, there are a lot investor put their money in ETH and there will be more project using ETH in the future but bitcoin already set foot and most of the people know bitcoin but not ETH, and the bitcoin adoption is larger than ETH, so bitcoin will still become number 1
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: ratatatat on May 08, 2017, 06:26:54 AM The chain bloats to huge sizes. It won't be very practical to use it in the future. I think something better will replace it sooner or later.
edit: also eth lost the little collectibility it had due to etc. Once eth goes pos etc will be superior in every way. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: solitare on May 08, 2017, 07:06:46 AM I heard that the ethereum is much better than the BTC that in fact is the same as BTC but improved and that is the reason why it is rising a lot of price. Is the Ethereum really better than the BTC? Do you believe that the Ethereum will reach the prices of BTC and even more that will surpasses the price of BTC, or that even will replace BTC? What are your thoughts and predictions for Ethereum ?? Regards I wouldn't say its a threat necessarily. They are different and there is room for both and a few more at the top. Smart Contracts show a lot of promise with business applications that bitcoin doesn't cover. I do expect it to be a long term leader and a platform that many innovations launch from as we find more applications for crypto technology. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: ubercool on May 08, 2017, 07:30:10 AM Ethereum is not a threat to bitcoin ,as bitcoin is more secure and decentralized ,but Ethereum is a pre mined coin and the scalability is still a big question as well as the security.If you are talking about the price then you still cannot compare with the giant price of bitcoin.So no coin is in existence to threat bitcoin. Right now the statement is true. No other altcoin can be comparable to BTC. Price, popularity, use and everything is better with BTC.

Yes, it seems this is real, all see how BTC develops to date, even the current BTC price is getting higher now, in my opinion Ethereal will not be possible to compete with BTC, since Btc is the first made from Eth. So I do not think it makes sense if Eth replaces BTC. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: danherbias07 on May 08, 2017, 09:03:57 AM How could it be better than bitcoin? As of now, bitcoin is still crawling into making it the currency to be known but yet it have a large value.
Now, Ethereum. How many wallets have you seen that are accepting ETH? Coinbase is one and after they accepted it many questioned it and some users stopped using Coinbase because of that decision. For me, it is not really a threat but a good competition for bitcoin to make it shine more specially looking at the price of each one. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: JeffBrad12 on May 08, 2017, 09:13:42 AM I could not see the good development in ethereum the same as bitcoin.. What do you mean about the development of ethereum same as bitcoin? It doesn't make sense for me. Ethereum based on smartcontract. ethereum is too far to reach bitcoin since ethereum is just alternative and bitcoin is the main and many company are already accepting bitcoin as payment unlike ethereum that are use only for trading purposes. This time ethereum as an alternative chain for the bitcoin traders and there is a possibility for ether to be a competitor for bitcoin. It's not a threat for bitcoin, Both are cryptocurrency which has used by a lot of people. It doesn't mean ether will always be a threat for bitcoin. Remember both of coin has a different supporter. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: chineseprancing on May 14, 2017, 09:18:38 PM In my opinion ethereum is not a threat to BTC because ethereum was not in the half of the value of BTC. Also it takes year before ethereum will become threat to BTC.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: emezh10 on May 14, 2017, 10:59:06 PM We can see that ethereum was also a successful coins in many altcoins but surpassing the bitcoin is almost impossible still a very long run for ethereum the bitcoin have a very high price already but i guess ethereum have a great potential in success but not passing the bitcoin.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: ppc.pt on May 14, 2017, 11:39:43 PM It's not a threat, ETH has won already. It's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

When we look at the prices of both the coins ETH is way behind BTC and also the market capitalization of ETH is even no way closer to BTC and possibility to surpass BTC market cap will not be possible for ETH in near future. And also most of the online store accept bitcoin. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Spoetnik on May 15, 2017, 06:21:34 AM - One is a Currency and the other is not.

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: bitcoinvestor on May 15, 2017, 07:24:58 AM SLowly yes, Etherium is one of the best altcoin after bitcoin. There are many tokens that are developed in ether blockchain. The token itself is valuable in market beter than new coins released. Many people don't trust to new coins but they give more trust to release token based token in Ether blockchain. Why, There are many developers behind the token release. The tokens also has various function. That's why ether will soon the same with bitcoin.

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Ayiranorea on May 15, 2017, 02:14:43 PM Ethereum never becomes a threat to the bitcoin. Ethereum has slowly growing similar to bitcoin with lot many advantageous features. The same might develop a hard competence to the bitcoin network, but the same won't overcome bitcoin. In my opinion bitcoin and ethereum is like the USD and the Euro which has its own value.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: iluvpie60 on May 15, 2017, 02:33:50 PM Smart contracts is what eth is mainly gonna be used for. It has its own benefits over bitcoin. Though i am not sure i completely trust it. Bitcoin i trust, been around very long time and only gets better.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Theb on May 15, 2017, 02:45:16 PM As of now not yet, I am still seeing Bitcoin on its growth stage and right now Bitcoin has no competition and thats what the consumers are looking for, technically the consumers are still adapting to Bitcoin I don't think they are currently on the stage in which they are looking for alternatives to it which means they are not looking for other cryptocurrencies.

The market would have been all over it.. not AFTER it got pumped to high hell in early 2016. So why would we be thinking it's a threat to Bitcoin after 3 years ? Because the price was manipulated higher & higher ? All i know is you guys all made me sick making this fucking ICO shit coin scam the #2 in crypto.

Run a scheme coin then make sure the little shits get a taste and bam.. you're sitting on Millions ..of little dipshits dollars Think about it.. where did Butters million dollars come from he dumped ? That is money put into the market by idiot bag holders. Not sure which is gayer.. Ripple or Ethereum.

Regards While ETH is indeed close to surpassing BTC regarding its market cap (according to http://www.flippening.watch/ ) The two of these should not be compared to each other. Since they are designed for different uses BTC aimed to be a currency in order to make transactions freely. Whereas ETH is a token for smart contracts. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: xbiv2 on June 17, 2017, 03:17:48 PM Quote What are you going to do when Vitalik gets impeached? Disclaimer: I'm going to make a not so nice post here. It turns our good old friends at Ethereum had a 70,000,000 MILLION coin premine before their public launch...that's out of a current 92,000,000 coins in circulation! Guess who controls those coins? 'The Ethereum foundation'. What does this mean for the average joe? It means the market cap is FAKE. There was no 40 BILLION capitalization (investor funding) or speculative market for Ethereum; In laymen terms, it further means the price was artificially inflated to induce futures speculation towards legitimate investors. End game: There are more coins in circulation then actual pecuniary subsidies vested in them. Therefore, a game of dominos & musical chairs is afoot. How long do you think it can take to launder Billions in ICO money onto legitimate investors heads to cash out their funny money? An illustration of the basics of the scam for your inspection has been attached as picture to this post. Berny Madoff would have been proud. DASH had nothing on this premine, DASH was being modest. Lest we also forget, its uncapped!; Subsequently, the true amount of Ether that will ever be floating around is pure speculation, it could raise at any moment! The FED has nothing on this funny money ponzi. http://i.4cdn.org/biz/1497712607663.png <--- Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Isn't it the same for Bitcoin investors on selling / exchanging their position in exchange on participating on ICOs? Well if you continued in my logic or the logic of trading all cryptocurrency can be traded to one another in order to arrive at what you want to buy. So I don't think that Ethereum has that advantage alone all cryptocurrency including all altcoins can participate on ICOs one way or another. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Charlie777 on July 10, 2017, 04:11:22 PM Both ETC and BTC have risen significantly in price this year (and have also fluctuated about a fair amount too) - although price can be a good indicator of strength it can be manipulated - and also crypto is so volatile that on any given day you could get a totally different picture (e.g. could be up/down 20% for whatever reason).
I don't think you can say one is "better" than the other becuase at the moment they're used for different things - Ethereum seems to be used for ICOs (so many ICOs!) and smart contracts for business automation, whereas BTC is more about payments etc... I don't think either is going to go away any time soon, but that's just my two cents :D Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: mace15 on July 10, 2017, 04:25:20 PM I don't see ether as a threat to bitcoin. For me, I dont think ethereum a threat to bitcoin.

Indeed in some ways Ethereum features are better than Bitcoin, but overall Bitcoin is the best. In terms of adoption, development, and price .. Bitcoin is better than Ethereum. So it's better to stop comparing Bitcoin with Ethereum because they're different.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: KesoNie on July 11, 2017, 02:57:39 PM I think yes because ethereum is being widely used right now, how? By the smart contracts and the different ICOs that are popping out like mushrooms and that is the cause why ethereum is being widely used and i think if bitcoin will not become a fast and cheap currency in terms of fees then ethereum will have a big advantage on its price and it will eventually take over bitcoin.

Post by: Chyton on July 13, 2017, 01:38:43 AM Well I don't think Ethereum is a threat to Bitcoin, I heard that they have some problems scaling Ethereum blockchain so Ethereum doesn't really have a big advantage(s) over Bitcoin. And I've heard that Ethereum investors sells their ETH to fiat or other coins (If I'm not wrong lol).
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: asepsetiawan1990 on July 13, 2017, 02:18:14 AM If compared to BTC, For now it is still far if the ethereum will surpass BTC. But for excellence does not close the possibility to approach BTC. But Ethereum has enough strength to raise its rank. Just come back again we have to pay attention to the factors that influence the ETH in order to get better.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Question123 on July 13, 2017, 02:21:26 AM Both this coin is good . But as of now I choose bitcoin because the price of bitcoin is higher than the price of ethereum. But if bitcoin die for me the next number 1 cryptocurrency or the king will be ethereum so thats why I have some ethereum in my wallet to make sure that I earn a lot of profit in the future. But I dont think ethereum threat for the bitcoin. The performance of this to coin is very good and I think they will shine more.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: andrei56 on July 13, 2017, 02:47:44 AM Apples and oranges. BTC is the only currency of these 2, ETH is a fascinating POC of distributed computer tailored for hosting tokens and operations with them. I believe we will see ETH/BTC go way higher for a while... Yeah, many don’t like Ethereum for a lot of reasons, but I think they make a nice combination, bitcoin is the currency and the crypto with the most acceptance among the population and business and ETH is great for investing in new projects like ICOs and crowdsales.Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Ethereum is not a real threat to Bitcoin because pretty much everyone that is trying to hold Bitcoin knows that Bitcoin was the very first coin that allowed the means for Cryptocurrency. If people wanted to purchase Ethereum instead of Bitcoin then the progress for making that coin get known to stores would be restarted and the people that are holding Ethereum know that they don’t want to start building their community from scratch, so I agree with you.

Ethereum can be better than Bitcoin for its users and vise versa. Sudden changes is really happening on the market like the leading currency can be surpassed by a currency behind it but it is not an indication that it can be a threat against the leading one. It is an open space workplace so it is really possible that the leading and the second will reverse its position depending on the demands and price value in the market. But we cannot totally say in a mean point that as Ethereum price pumps, it can be a threat to Bitcoin because we are open for changes regarding that matterIs the Ethereum really better than the BTC?

Etherium is not an improved Bitcoin. 4. Etherium may reach the price of Bitcoin but by that time Bitcoin is already very very high. The trust in Etherium is the trust of crypto in general, which also means trust in Bitcoin. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Yes those are the facts that support bitcoins in our wolrd. Eth is just starting to bloom, compared to btc which are way too far from it. It is the most powerful crypto currency, it can be exchange into a real money using banks.

Post by: The Monkey King on July 25, 2017, 11:33:45 AM I dont think that ethereum will be a big threat to bitcoin as it is already know and popular worldwinde.Yes,the eth may have some better features than bitcoin but I think it is still not enough for the bitcoin to be replaced.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: xhienigat on July 25, 2017, 12:05:15 PM I don't think Ethereum is a threat to BTC because both have different features and bitcoin has been in the cryptoworld for quite some time compared to Ethereum, though Eth is also trying to get noticed in the market but it won't surpass Bitcoin and I'm sure of that.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: HughCaires on July 26, 2017, 02:22:02 AM I heard that the ethereum is much better than the BTC that in fact is the same as BTC but improved and that is the reason why it is rising a lot of price. Is the Ethereum really better than the BTC? Do you believe that the Ethereum will reach the prices of BTC and even more that will surpasses the price of BTC, or that even will replace BTC? What are your thoughts and predictions for Ethereum ?? Regards To me they present different solutions to different markets. Ethereum's real draw is of course the smart contract technology which is very attractive to large companies. Look at the Ethereum Alliance, it has companies like American Express on board now. Bitcoin seems to be more attractive to your every day person looking for safe and anonymous online transactions. I think they can exist concurrently without one being a threat to the other. That being said, Ethereum appears to derive its value from Bitcoin's success or slump. That is at least what I have noticed when checking their market value. If anything, I think Ethereum needs Bitcoin at moment to exist. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: rajuahmed330 on July 26, 2017, 02:28:10 AM I think also. it can upto btc.

Post by: joganuts on July 26, 2017, 05:49:27 AM You shouldn't see it as a threat from the price perspective because It means nothing, you should however see how much Its mentioned on the news, how many shops (local and online) use it, how many ATMs does it have, how active the development is etc. Bitcoin wins in all these things beside Ethereum is not meant to be an electronic cash but bitcoin is. There is no actual competition that may happens on the economic state of one crypto-currency to another, it is much more a relation that shows direct development for one to another. It just like mutual relation which affects both variable to progress. And it's just like a mutual understanding that may cost for further development of each other. So it's better to continue our support for both cryptocurrency that may lead for further development and progress for the transaction, price, value, and of course security.Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Even if it replaced Bitcoin it is still ok. Bitcoin will survive. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: andrei56 on July 27, 2017, 02:02:08 AM I do not think so, ethereum is now strong, but if the opponent is a bitcoin, it's still too far for ethereum. Look at the strength of bitcoin now, bitcoin is the strongest coin now and we can not deny it. But I think for prediction it could be for the ethereum to outrun it, but not in the near future. I do not know about that, bitcoin seems ready for another jump in price while ETH is not precisely on the best shape with all those hacks that have happened recently, so it is possible we see bitcoin retaking a dominance in the market that we have not seen in months.Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: spadormie on July 27, 2017, 03:18:09 AM Ethereum is a great threat to bitcoin, really. It is in the second cryptocurrency coin in the list.

I dont think so etherium can beat bitcoin in the future but still no one knows if what will happen in the future theres a lot of altcoins already telling that there coins and token will raise up in the sky and beat bitcoin starts from 2011 until now but still no one can beat the bitcoin as a king of all crypto currency for me bitcoins is still the best of all time and no other altcoins can beat that.

Post by: DuarteFig on July 27, 2017, 02:08:22 PM Bitcoin = First decentralized digital currency, widely adopted, very solid, entrance door to crypto world.
Ethereum = Smart contract platform on Blockchain, enables development of decentralized apps and decentralized autonomous orgs. Why do I keep seeing threads comparing both or saying one will kill the other? Blockchain technology is still very new to general public and both (bitcoin and ethereum) are now undervalued if you think about future potential. When the value of Bitcoin increases, it makes all other coins stronger. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Kisanaq on July 27, 2017, 02:35:03 PM I think it's not just ethereum being a bitcoin threat but all the coins, this is because all the coins would want to be the number 1 that is currently controlled by bitcoin.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Wintersoldier on July 27, 2017, 03:00:11 PM You shouldn't see it as a threat from the price perspective because It means nothing, you should however see how much Its mentioned on the news, how many shops (local and online) use it, how many ATMs does it have, how active the development is etc. Bitcoin wins in all these things beside Ethereum is not meant to be an electronic cash but bitcoin is. It is not acualty a competition or rivalry between ethereum and Bitcoin it is much more on a relationship which both variable have a good thing brought by one currency to another. It is especially a mutual relationship which both help each other on the market for their price to reach its full capacity for development. Each has a price that is quite needed on trading where in peole choose to used them as a. Form of transaction.Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Gens09 on July 27, 2017, 03:21:39 PM Even though Bitcoin has high fees but long price rallies is something which makes the people to attach with it. However, Ethereum has started pumping now so I don't see any barrier that ether will soon outstand btc. :o One thing I have thinking is that those buying Ethereum now too fed up with the high transaction fees being incurred with bitcoin and the scaling debate has not been settled. So they are pumping Ethereum and waiting for the bitcoin drama to be resolved. But I guess they will go back to bitcoin once everything looks good. So I don't think its a threat, rather another option for investors to put their cashflow in the crypto world. I don't think ETH will be a threat to BTC. BTC is doing so well these days but they still have its differences. BT C I s more reliable though.Some expects a breakout of ETH while others don't believe with it. ETH and BTC can actually coexist. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Medrano2990 on August 07, 2017, 02:17:05 PM For me, Ethereum is not Bitcoin's threat at the moment.

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Michael2t on August 07, 2017, 02:25:36 PM Ethereum being turing complete, it is a great way to end up in disaster long term, so we are never going to see ETH be a threat to BTC as a store of value. BTC's simplicity is a strong point to be the best store of value in crypto. The fact that it's so hard to change, it's also a good point to prevail as the strongest coin to store wealth.
Both of these cryptos help our world better and develop a good blockchain system so that other people can know about the existence of cryptocurrency on this planet.

If it surpasses the diff level it could also surpasses the price. we now know every miner in Bitcoin but do we really know all the miners in ETH? How do we know a large miner wouldn't fork the blockchain and create another ETH whenever they desired? besides with GPU mining everyone Could become a miner, specially GPU manufacturers and that is a disadvantage ETH has compared to BTC where you need a machine which no Ordinary manufacturer produces them.

Everex is an example, goo.gl/E2NDF2 (http://goo.gl/E2NDF2)

Post by: Desscount on August 15, 2017, 06:50:45 PM Ethereum the end of this development is very good, I think opportunities in the future will continue to grow, but I think it will not have a big effect on btc, we all know that btc is the most popular in the world of crypto
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Stedsm on August 15, 2017, 06:53:09 PM Ethereum has possibilities to grow dynamically focusing its new technology behind it which gives smart tokens allocation services as well as scaled transactions, but a threat? My desperate answer would be a No, because Ethereum or any other coin could not dominate Bitcoins because bitcoin has already set up its base before all of them even came into existence, so I don't think any could replace Bitcoins or possess a threat to Bitcoins in any way.

Agree. Even some speculated on btc split that will worsen btc after it just made btc pump same with ETH , eth may get popularity in many ICO yet it can't still replace btc in terms of value and uses.Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: daadog on August 15, 2017, 06:57:15 PM It is, although they operate with different goals in mind, but it sure is a "threat" if that means it will grow to be bigger than bitcoin.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: AbsoluteT on August 15, 2017, 07:35:44 PM Ethereum is very different from Bitcoin I would call it a threat because right now bitcoin is king of crypto and if that changes it will hurt bitcoin a lot.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: btcprospecter on August 15, 2017, 08:18:46 PM I think the main reason for ethereum surging is alot of people missed out on the bitcoin boat and see this as the next big coin to profit from. It's powered by greed and the fear of missing out however it has a long way to go before it can prove to overtake bitcoin.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Tezcalitpoka on August 16, 2017, 03:47:31 AM No, i think they have different purpose, btc will carry value due to rarity and etherum will gain the value with ability, performance etc.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: DeZZZ on August 16, 2017, 03:57:19 AM I in general see the future only behind ETH, simply I do not understand what for to me BTC except for as commerce at stock exchanges and purchases for it of all tokens. Now in a portfolio has left only ETH and NEM for participation in the future ICO, I think in a portfolio those coins which to you for something should lay are necessary, if they are useless that simply speculate on fast at a stock exchange in small percent.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: ticterine on August 16, 2017, 04:16:29 AM Ethereum is a platform. I don't really think they're trying to compete with BTC.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Flomo on August 16, 2017, 07:07:43 AM I think ethereum will not go beyond BTC, because BTC is the master coin of all coins.
Every exchange and end of exchange always use Bitcoin. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: DreamweaverVCC on August 16, 2017, 08:45:10 AM I don't think it is a threat. BTC is like the gold and the king
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: SMSCHAIN on August 16, 2017, 05:43:55 PM BTC as a kind of early addopter of the blockchain technology and also managed properly by the community. That doesn´t mean that BTC will be the only one in the market neither that BTC is out of risk. But something is clear, it is not only about one startup, it is about the transformation of the financial industry as a whole.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: luvbeening on August 16, 2017, 06:05:07 PM ethereum will never become a threat to BTC,its complexity in useage made it no chance to get the popularity
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: mindrust on August 16, 2017, 06:20:40 PM As others mentioned, it is a platform. Not a currency.
So people are paying for ethreum corp's shares. Not coins. it is a platform for other stuff, so people who pay money to get eth are actually paying so they can have a chance to operate on the eth platform. I kid, That's not the truth. Nobody cares about eth's tech. Everybody buys eth for pump&dump purposes. That's more or less same with bitcoin either except people actually use bitcoin to purchase stuff. Also take this into consideration: Govs or Companies don't have to use Ethereum's infrastructure. They can build their own platform/network. No need to pay ethereum corp. That means bad business for eth. On the other hand, bitcoin is all about its network's size. It is widely accepted in many places. Any altcoin out there is trying to compete with this big network. Which is too much hard work. Another plus for bitcoin. Bitcoin is a settlement layer above all countries and companies. Ethereum is about companies and govs. Make your pick. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: aeternus on August 17, 2017, 03:26:05 AM I think it's not just ethereum being a bitcoin threat but all the coins, this is because all the coins would want to be the number 1 that is currently controlled by bitcoin. While in theory you are correct that is not true, even Ethereum is going to have a really hard time to take bitcoin spot in the top, it is obvious that a coin with a million dollars in market cap is going to have even more problems to even reach a point in which it will become a threat to bitcoin. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: condura150 on August 20, 2017, 04:43:33 AM I heard that the ethereum is much better than the BTC that in fact is the same as BTC but improved and that is the reason why it is rising a lot of price. Is the Ethereum really better than the BTC? Do you believe that the Ethereum will reach the prices of BTC and even more that will surpasses the price of BTC, or that even will replace BTC? What are your thoughts and predictions for Ethereum ?? Regards There's always a possibility that ETH can replaced or surpass BTC, but not for now, it would probably take a long long time. But there are good projects under ETH, and a lot of people are trusting it, making it grow fast. I believe that ETH has a long way to go, for now Bitcoin is the most accepted cryptocurrency to date. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Rishabh riyz on August 20, 2017, 06:01:18 AM No Ethereum is not a threat to Bitcoin. Ethereum was never meant to compete with Bitcoin, even more replacing it. It was just meant to be a wormd-computer, what Bitcoin is not. ethereum is a crypto currency and the acceptance of ethereum is also growing , but if we see the users of ethereum we can see that most of the people using ethereum are using ethereum as an asset , an investment that is meant to make profit to them in near future .bitcoin has a great number of supporter's and is currently the best because it is providing the best advantages that a trader needs , like fluctuating values , comparatively low transfer tax and many more .itcoins took its time and evolved itself to what now it is . ethereum is just a begining of a new project now , they may become a threat to bitcoins , not now but surely in future as they are also developing themselves . it would be very difficult for them to overcome bitcoins like almost impossible , but they have the potential to do so Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

What are your thoughts and predictions for Ethereum ?? Regards Ethereum becoming the most successful altcoins in this business doesn't mean that they can surpass the original and the most successful virtual currency existing im this world. Their value are not even half the value of bitcoins so how can that be a threat to them? And besides the segwit thing just enable bitcoins to grow more and look at their price now, it almost doubled its price before that how powerful bitcoin are and no one can be a threat to them. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Bastime on August 20, 2017, 07:10:22 AM No, It's not. The real threat of BTC is BitcoinCash as in a small period of time (Few days after it's launched) the price of the digital currency Bitcoin Cash sustained its upward trajectory and surpassed the $700 mark as of Aug. 18 3 weeks since it's birth.

Is not really a threat to bitcoin because they are not the same.the value the price the demand.it is not possible.but for me i believe that no other coin can replace bitcoin.because it is tend go be replace by other i think bitcoin can never exist right now in this present time.Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Because bitcoin is the mother of all atcoins and we knew that all. And if ever Ethereum surpass it, bitcoin community will comtinue use, love and embraced bitcoin. Bitcoin it is being used by many of the merchants now in different places all over the world. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: gaming-stars on August 20, 2017, 10:21:35 AM In my opinion, Ethereum has many advantages over Bitcoin.
Nevertheless, both are different because Bitcoin is a crypto currency and Ethereum a platform for DApps with an own crypto currency. Therefore, both can and will exist because the market is huge enough for more than one of them. Paypal is also not the only online payment solution and for the same reason, Bitcoin will not be the only crypto currency. However, they were the first one... Ethereum is no threat, just a competitor. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: ipanks on August 20, 2017, 02:35:13 PM maybe ethereum is not a threat to btc but its like a rival to compete to reach the highest position in the market. but btc will always be number one in market because there are many people and store online is using bitcoin than ethereum. as long as bitcoin stay on the right track, then bitcoin will always be the leader for the other.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: SmallCapCoins on August 20, 2017, 02:37:35 PM Ethereum is an active threat, look at how high the market cap is. And it adds functionality.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Samarkand on August 20, 2017, 03:15:40 PM Ethereum is an active threat, look at how high the market cap is. And it adds functionality. While it may add functionality, Ethereum has proven to be less secure than the time-tested Bitcoin network. Besides, projects like Rootstock are developing smart contracts on the basis of Bitcoin. I don´t really see Ethereum as a thread for these reasons. Additionally, it is very questionable, whether the intended change to PoS as a consensus mechanism is feasible at all! Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Haladay on August 20, 2017, 03:16:42 PM Ethereum is an active threat, look at how high the market cap is. And it adds functionality. The market cap difference between bitcoin and ethereum is still huge, but the thing is that bitcoin has no solution for the ecosystem, while ethereum provides a great platform for the community. So ether will be a real threat to bitcoin next years. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Heruur on August 20, 2017, 03:37:49 PM Definitely no threat to BTC. Bitcoin is seen as a Benchmark of cryptocurrencies. A lot of investors have heard only the word "bitcoin"
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: seattletu on August 20, 2017, 04:16:32 PM As I comprehend it, from somebody engaged with the Ethereum extend, they view Bitcoin as similar to gold while Ether will be more similar to oil. In other words, the previous will have a greater amount of a characteristic esteem and can be utilized as a cash, while the last will discover its incentive by what it can be utilized to achieve.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: asus09 on August 20, 2017, 04:36:48 PM This is far from possible, BTC crypto currency is the most popular, although eth could close under the BTC, far in comparing allcoin. And i see eth follow btc's footsteps and that's why they can soar.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Bes19 on August 20, 2017, 05:01:57 PM I don't see ETH as a threat n BTC coz they have a big difference in market cap. There are much more investors in btc than eth. BTC is the father of crypto while ETH is just a son lol I can only see ETH as a big rival of BTC but a threat seems impossible.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Crypto_New on August 20, 2017, 05:22:27 PM It seems you are misinformed or read, how could eth better than btc while eth below btc. Btc is the king of allcoin, the most popular crypto currency. And I think it's very difficult to defeat btc.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: jameshowlett on August 20, 2017, 05:27:30 PM No, it is not. There is nothing you need to worry about ethereum right now. It only supports bitcoin and it can not become greater than bitcoin. As you can see, bitcoin has proved that it is still the king of all cryptos
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Rana590 on August 20, 2017, 05:33:21 PM Absolutely not. Because bitcoin and ethereum are not same in currency, price.

So i think ethereum isn't thread for BTC
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Butchick on August 21, 2017, 12:57:35 AM Eth may have been a popular coin lately due to its unique program, still it doesn't have the capacity to overcome btc. it is true that eth's value have remarkably increased in time and a lot of investors came in to the said coin but the market cap between the two is still way too huge it will take years for eth to catch up provided that there will be no furthur development for Btc. These coins have been performing well and may be great competitors but eth being a threat to btc, i don't think so.

Post by: Emworks on August 21, 2017, 09:40:08 AM Its been a debate since ethereum make its own mark in cryptocurrency world., the two has different purpose, definition and uses, but a lot people saw a huge opportunity on ethereum, its way much cheaper and faster to mine rather than bitcoin and lot of aspirant entreprenuer and investors really depend on ethereum cause it allow people to write "smart contracts"and create more funds on thier project thru ICO.

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: crazyer on August 22, 2017, 01:06:43 PM I think this is possible.

No other coin even as high as half the price of BTC so not competent enough to wage war or stand a better coin than BTC. I am also wondering if anyone has 42Coin on their wallets or you own a bit of it on exchanges? As it has doubled the price of BTC a coin. Ethereum is stable and I think it is good to invest in it. I have invested in Ethereum before but I already converted it into BCH but planning to invest again with that coin.Is the Ethereum really better than the BTC? Do you believe that the Ethereum will reach the prices of BTC and even more that will surpasses the price of BTC, or that even will replace BTC? What are your thoughts and predictions for Ethereum ?? Regards Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: darthmaul on August 26, 2017, 04:35:34 AM Its been a debate since ethereum make its own mark in cryptocurrency world., the two has different purpose, definition and uses, but a lot people saw a huge opportunity on ethereum, its way much cheaper and faster to mine rather than bitcoin and lot of aspirant entreprenuer and investors really depend on ethereum cause it allow people to write "smart contracts"and create more funds on thier project thru ICO. Yeah completely true about ether and start contract relation. Today's each and every ICO is made available through the smart contracts. Due to this investors have to use the ethereum as the primary currency if they want to invest money. This leads to generation of bigger volumes of ethereum and ultimately it rises in its value. But, this isn't threat to bitcoin. The projects are working on the other hand of crypto currency and bitcoin is operating in its different boundaries. Though ether being use on such smart level it has not been able to go beyond 1K value in any time. Bitcoin is threaten only if the price of other coins go ahead it. It's not happening at all.

Post by: angaper on August 27, 2017, 06:36:17 PM Ethereum is already three years old and I think if it was destined to displace the bitcoin from its hegemonic place, that should have happened already, otherwise I do not think that in the future this can happen.
While it is true that in these three years of life Ethereum has had considerable growth, bitcoin has remained dynamic and its level of acceptance has increased day by day, which has not been possible with ethereum that seems still far from the level of popularity and usability that bitcoin enjoys today. So I do not see it as a threat, but I think that Ethereum has definitively displaced Litecoin as the "silver" of the altcoins, in relation to the "gold" that will always be bitcoin.

Well below the btc price. ETH, like other altcoins, aims to do things that BTC can not do. He proposes to use smart contracts to handle electronic transactions in the better ethereum blockchain.

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: minobia on August 28, 2017, 01:09:15 AM I think not, because it's a niche. A public support for crypto will be in favour of Bitcoin. Bitcoin has a greater acceptance, due to the public discussion and publications. Only insiders are considering Ethereum, new entrants will choose Bitcoin. New entrants will let the Bitcoin grow. I can not really agree with the acceptance as you mention Ethereum and it is not a niche!!, Ethereum is actuality very similar to Bitcoin except it is more diversified in terms of on what and how it can do very different things! BTC and ETH are pretty much at the same level in terms of use, ETH is accessible to anyone and its is easy to create a coin compared to Bitcoin or any other altcoins.

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: AK47- on August 28, 2017, 01:58:36 AM ETH is here in cryptocurrency market since 2015. Since then it has came a long way because of its potential uses and utility. It is on completely different path then that of Bitcoin. Bitcoin is here for 8-9 years. It was invented basically to provide and option of a decentralized, anonymous, online, deflationary currency or a completely opposite currency of traditional currency. Indeed Bitcoin has became largely an investment asset today. But Bitcoin being the first mover, has huge acceptability, users and trust. It will grow no matter what. Whereas ETH has smart contract functionality and hence is popular.
They both tend to grow together. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: tabas on August 29, 2017, 12:27:19 AM ethereum is not a threat to bitcoin. I think new adopters of BTC will grow faster than the convertors from BTC to Eth. Plus I don't think that is possible to Etherum to take the leading position one day. I don't know why people keep on putting ethereum and bitcoin at the same stage. Bitcoin will never be replaced by any fast growing alt coin. Alt coins will be on the second thought by everyone. Bitcoin will be the main stage of crypto currency and I can't see any threat from other alt coins as well because this is the main crypto coin. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: shyliar on August 29, 2017, 02:15:53 AM Name one popular DAPP. You can't. If there ever was a popular one that was used 24/7 it would slow the ETH network down so much that the developer would have to switch his DAPP to an APP with a centralized server. The ETH network can't handle an ICO without coming to a standstill. Imagine a constant standstill.
The fact is that a decentralized network is 1000s of times slower than a centralized one. As such it might be capable of doing one thing well. Like be money. Even then scaling issues for bitcoin and other coins demonstrate that even doing one thing well on a decentralized network is difficult because of the speed issues. Curiously, despite this obvious fact, novices continue to think that the ETH network is a world supercomputer that can function as money, run multiple DAPPs, solve banking issues, run smart contracts for businesses and destroy every other cryptocurrency. To be frank that's just plain stupid. The Ethereum Platform is interesting and might have uses on private chains and networks. Almost every news article about Ethereum is about the platform and not the public blockchain. The public chain will become so bloated and congested that it will become virtually useless. Is Ethereum a threat to bitcoin. Not a chance. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: vennz17 on August 29, 2017, 11:52:10 AM No, Ethereum not better than BTC.

Anybody who thinks pointing at the hashrate of Bitcoin Cash means much should really read this article: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/miners-are-milking-bcashs-difficulty-adjustments-and-why-problem1/ Unfortunately, the EDA bug is currently unfixable because it requires miners to adopt a new version of software during a hardfork. Why would they adopt the new version when it's not to their advantage? The only way to solve the problem is a large increase or decrease in price. Likely, a large decrease will happen. Why would it increase when the developers of Bitcoin Cash have proven a level of incompetency by programming this bug in the first place? Things may settle down once the price drops extremely low for a prolonged period of time. Until then hugh swings in hashrate will continue. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Ethereum offers the ability to create smart contracts while Bitcoin is the superior digital gold. My two cents.

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: tabas on August 29, 2017, 10:02:43 PM ethereum is not a threat to bitcoin. I think new adopters of BTC will grow faster than the convertors from BTC to Eth. Plus I don't think that is possible to Etherum to take the leading position one day. I don't know why people keep on putting ethereum and bitcoin at the same stage. Bitcoin will never be replaced by any fast growing alt coin. Alt coins will be on the second thought by everyone. Bitcoin will be the main stage of crypto currency and I can't see any threat from other alt coins as well because this is the main crypto coin. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: jerkoin on August 29, 2017, 11:51:15 PM I'd say definitely yes but only with one doubt which is the immaturity of the solidity language which is kinda prone to attack as we've recently witnessed a few and even from Ethereum themselves. Terrible! But still have no idea if apps using the clone version of the Bitcoin code have ever been hacked or attacked before or something. I'm not sure, though :(

The fact that many are relying to ETH and keeps on spreading FUD that says "ETH will replace bitcoin", "ETH is the new btc", "ETH is a threat to btc?" these are being brought up because of many projects that are being consolidated with ETH but they are not noticing bitcoin's growth. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Erowind on August 30, 2017, 05:41:03 PM I think ethereum will surpass bitcoin sometime in the next 3-5 years, imagine if you could have pegged a market value to TCIP in in the early-mid 1970s. Bitcoin will still crush banks though XD

yes, ethereum is a threat to bitcoin. its faster, cheaper, and it's got working governance. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

And still only bitcoin has a big establishment in bitcoin community worldwide. So, How come that Ethereum is a threat into bitcoin?Ethereum is not meant to be an electronic cash but bitcoin is.

To be honest I don't think Ether is that similar to BTC, and that's probably why it's having some success, it actually tries to offer something new, and it's not just another "clone". I still see a lot more potential to BTC though, specially when the lightning network gets implemented. I mean, almost instant tx, very low fees, impossible to know who is participating in the transaction, trustless exchange. I like Ether, but BTC has to much potential, so I don't see ether as a thread. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

It's more like a virus that spreading throughout the entire whole world, infecting every persons system, that's why more investors now holds their coin for further assets. Their main purpose is profit, same as what I have also been undergoing right now. Me patience on the holding I had was extended just because of bitcoin price to reach even higher than it's current value nowadays.

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Flodemaga on September 01, 2017, 11:54:56 PM Ethereum is doing well on the last months due to almost all Ico being using the smart contrats from it, if those function will be implemented over bitcoin it would make it to loose the big interest as well the big use being done with the smart contracts.

Also looking at a new person or a new user of Cryptocurrency they tend to take the one who is the most popular is which is Bitcoin, even most of the time they see the word "Bitcoin" first before the word "cryptocurrency" because that is how popular Bitcoin is everywhere online and even some of your friends at least 1 of them use or knows what Bitcoin ism especially your friends who are into investing in the stock market or mutual funds.

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: iluvbtc on September 02, 2017, 04:51:45 AM No, not at all. Ethereum has a completely different value proposition, Bitcoin is the premier store of value, it 's comparable to Gold precious metal. I think it will hold this designation since it is the premier decentralized coin (no owner).
Litecoin is the silver to Bitcoin's gold, very undervalued at the moment, it is positioned to be 1/4 the price of Bitcoin. I think Ethereum's biggest challenge will be from EOS when it is released. Dan Larimer is a total stud, he created Bitshares and Steemit which combined have more transactions than ALL other cryptos combined. EOS is the Etheruem killer IF they don't keep up the innovation. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Carlsen on September 02, 2017, 05:34:22 AM Bitcoin has a limited supply to 21 million coins, Ether is unlimited as far as I know.
I think that bitcoin has become something like digital gold, a form of investment. And mybe Ether will manage it to become the future payment form in the crypto currency world. It's a little bit like gold and US dollar. Gold you store, with the dollar you pay. But that would mean as well that one day the market capitalization of ETH can be bigger than than the capitalization of bitcoin. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

There isn't a single popular DAPP in existence. There never will be either because if one got popular the ETH network would slow down to a snail's pace permanently. If a single ICO can basically shut down the network imagine what a popular DAPP would do when being used 24/7. Any other DAPPS would need to become APPS on private servers. Every news story you read about banks or businesses using Ethereum is referring to the Ethereum Platform as a package to develop private network blockchains. They aren't considering using the public token at all. Although, it's good for a pump to suck money out of the hands of novices. It's turing complete design makes it a poor choice as money. Basically any use cases for ETH the token seems to have disappeared. The Ethereum Platform might still have some use; but, token holders don't own a piece of that. It's hard to predict because so many investors make their choices based on nothing but feelings. In the long run reality will kick in and the long term price likely will decline.

If you read about it http://raiden.network/ you will notice that, if true this network will be much faster than VISA or other CC providers. After this I see ethereum at an advantage point over bitcoin. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Lovetrading on September 06, 2017, 06:37:12 AM Well, Netscape was the first internet browser. No one is using it now. If you ask a high school kid, probably never heard about and fir sure never used it. Bitcoin will go down the same path. It's a technology and it changes ALL the time. Better, faster, safer, coins will take over.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: seattletu on September 06, 2017, 08:16:43 AM To work off that, Bitcoin is great at being cash; it enables units to be sent between various 'records', it has different valuable highlights for money(time bolt, multiparty accounts) and there is a hard farthest point to the bitcoin supply. Generally, individuals utilize bitcoins as units of significant worth to trade products.
Ether, then again, does not appear like it will be utilized basically along these lines. There are no worked in 'cash highlights' (other than the capacity to exchange units amongst accounts) and there is no hard top to the ether supply. Its essential capacity is to control the projects that live in the Ethereum blockchain. They even utilize the wording "gas" to signify the measure of ether spent on running a program. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: shohelalam on September 06, 2017, 08:57:52 AM I heard that the ethereum is much better than the BTC that in fact is the same as BTC but improved and that is the reason why it is rising a lot of price. Is the Ethereum really better than the BTC? Do you believe that the Ethereum will reach the prices of BTC and even more that will surpasses the price of BTC, or that even will replace BTC? What are your thoughts and predictions for Ethereum ?? Regards I don't think Ethereum a threat to BTC. BTC accept every ware . The world accept btc. Both coins are good . you can hold both. bitcoin don't give profit so much. bitcoin investment always profitable but not huge at this moment. so you can switch ethereum and hold for log time and get profitable. right now bitcoin transaction fee so much reason bitcoin price , so when you want to small transaction that you have to pay huge fee. Ethereum is better from btc right now . Low transaction fee, smart contract, Maximum ICO project comes from eth platform and they was successful so ethereum future is good. Eth price increasing day by day. eth price don't cross bitcoin price because eth supply almost 5x more from BTC. but market capital will be touch .... Thank you Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Nathland on September 06, 2017, 08:59:29 AM NO, i don't think that ethereum is a threat to BTC as Bitcoin is the most popular and most widely accepted cryptocurrency in the world. Everyone who believes in crypto believes in Bitcoin but that's not the cast with ethereum.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: GoodLad on September 06, 2017, 09:35:33 AM Potentially, every coin is the Bitcoin's competitor, but a threat? Very doubtful. Bitcoin has already proved itself as a safe and growing. Traders, especially beginning ones, try to lower their risks as much as possible and so choose Bitcoin.
If any currency will ever become a threat to Bitcoin, it won't happen in nearest terms. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Faroxx on September 08, 2017, 11:03:52 AM Today I heard that Ethereum Raiden Network is going live. I do not agree with you. Even if this happens I think people will not abandon bitcoin because many perceive it as a means of savings, like gold for example.If you read about it http://raiden.network/ you will notice that, if true this network will be much faster than VISA or other CC providers. After this I see ethereum at an advantage point over bitcoin. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: aeternus on September 11, 2017, 08:16:44 PM No, Ethereum is not a threat to bitcoin. They are an apples and oranges comparison. Ethereum is more centered on smart contracts whereas bitcoin is designed mainly for decentralized transactions. I believe both will survive and remain strong over the next few years. If I remember correctly some people argued that Ethereum was Bitcoin 2.0, that it could do everything bitcoin could do and at the same time it could do the smart contracts above it and now we see that people most of the time only use ETH as a smart contract platform and not as a currency.Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: SMSCHAIN on September 15, 2017, 02:25:06 PM Ethereum is not a threat to BTC but they are in the same market and offering similar solutions. It is right that are different kind of things but they are anyway getting a part of the cake. At the end of the day, the investors are supporting different business or both, since for example, some altcoins raise money over BTC and Ethereum at the same time, so, you can use your BTC to pay one half of the altcoins that you bought, and pay the remaining half with Ethereum. To conclude, ETH is not a threat but a complement of BTC.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: misterbigg on September 15, 2017, 05:11:52 PM Ethereum not a thread but it is different and will go side by side in future

Or so some of us can hope 8) Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: bravetheheat on September 15, 2017, 09:00:54 PM ETH may be a better coin for cryptocurrency, it has fast transation speed and smart contract, and total supply is also reasonable.
The most important thing for a currency is the identity of value, everyone knows BTC if you mention cryptocurrency. If there is one day that most of people are talking about the ETH nor ETC, then ETH will be a threat. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: Morguk on September 15, 2017, 09:02:50 PM I don't think Ethereum is too much of a threat to BTC, maybe it will take the marketcap one day but I don't think forever. I think IOTA is much more of a threat.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: go4crypto on September 15, 2017, 09:04:09 PM Bitcoin and Ethereum cover different market segments and needs. Bitcoin is a store of value and will
always remain the #1 cryptocoin. Ethereum is more of a platform for various projects to run on it. It will also remain a top coin for a long time. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC???

What are your thoughts and predictions for Ethereum ?? Regards In depends on what therms ETH is better look there: http://bc.daniel.net.nz/ And you will see that ETH expanding is costly for resource and all icos are not working yet so. You have to be careful EOS Tezos NEO are coing out of corner. Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: FaithETH on September 15, 2017, 09:35:36 PM Well, Ethereum is really interestic and promising currency but it's a bit different than Bitcoin. I love the ability to create your own token. It can be used in many different ways. Even some youtubers started release their own tokens which will support them in their future.

Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: gidaahmad on September 15, 2017, 11:54:29 PM We need to think logically for this. Ethereum is smaller than Bitcoin. However, seen from the price fluctuations, ETH is more stable. We also see the price of ETH had touched 10% of Bitcoin. Well, hopefully this figure will continue to rise this year to 15% Bitcoin price that will make ETH holders happy.

I agree with you, ETH is more stable than Bitcoin because of the huge market and community behind it, this makes ETH always attracting investors around the world and certainly in 10 the following year, ETH will be applied in daily life.Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: richjohn on September 16, 2017, 02:13:18 AM I don't think that Bitcoin and Ethereum are anyway competing with each other. Rather one tends to grow with other and vice versa. People are equally interested in both. Where Ethereum has huge utility, Bitcoin has built a huge trust. People are investing in both and both are best for long term holding.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: faceoff97 on September 16, 2017, 02:18:55 AM Ethereum is not designed to become a threat to bitcoin, in fact it doesnt compete each other. They keep soaring and become attracting with many people. They go alongside and no threat happening. There is no better with each other they are on a different market. Basically bitcoin is considered as most established crypto, then ethreum becomes a potential on becoming also. It has reached its hood state and still ever going. In short, they can go along side.
Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: caeles on September 16, 2017, 02:53:14 AM As I observed today, ETH's value is falling and BTC's value is swinging from lower to higher value so for my conclusion, ETH will not be a threat to BTC for today. ETH might be the best altcoin but I don't think that it may beat or overcome BTC so we should not think that ETH is a threat to BTC and it will overcome it but we should think that every cryptocurrency will change its value when time goes by.

Post by: Freyya08 on September 16, 2017, 03:41:53 AM apparently not, i don't see eth as a threat to btc since both coins are on different perspective. moreover, btc has been around for a long time and has proven its worth despite the ups and downs that it encountered. although eth is doing a good job on the crypto world and has potential, still it is not a threat and still has a long way to go to be able to surpass btc.

BTC is still the best and most stable market because BTC is supported by many co-operative corporations so investors prefer to use Bitcoin than ETH. I think ETH can overcome Bitcoin, but it will take a long time to do that.Title: Re: Is Ethereum a threat to BTC??? Post by: nkarm1 on September 17, 2017, 01:21:46 AM Etherium was made after Bitcoin was made, meaning that the etherium was designed with additional features and application that bitcoin doesn't have. So basically, with all it's features and applications, it is a threat for bitcoin. But let us not take it as a drawback for bitcoin, competition for every market is healthy. Just like the smartphone developers out there trying to beat each other. One of them can never just lie down on their beds because if one is delayed developing their tech someone will get left behind. Same as this altcoins trying to beat bitcoin, with the dominance of bitcoin among all of this coins in terms of established trust and good market, developers are really trying to beat this one so they are making more unique features and applications for their coins. So in that case, with everybody's trying to beat it, new technologies are emerging which is an advantage for the users.

Even ETh have more update than bitcoin people still buy Apple :D Nice comparison and we have yet to found out where Google, Amazon etc. are. It will be interesting to see other to challenge BTC. After all this drama with China going I am still convinced NEO could be another huge player in the long term. Privacy coins like Monero have huge potential too. I think financial guys are just more drawn to BTC and the tech guys to ETH because of their application. As tech guy I really love ETH, but when the next waves of big investors come in, I think BTC will rocket once again, because in the "real market" investors have probably more background in the financial sector.
