friends to invest right now in btc or eth?

Go 50/50. But if you must go just one right now, I say go BTC.

I am bullish on eth so I would say 80%-90% ETH and the leftover in bitcoin. However if you would like you can check out my portfolio : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2788112.msg28505164#msg28505164

Just like i have always advised some of my friends. Whatever you have that you want to invest and you are contemplating on two coins, divide the money into two places and by both with the money halved. That is, use half to buy btc and the other to buy eth.

I think that now it is necessary to wait a few days and invest in bitcoin, I think soon will be very strong growth

I agree with the comment, but the fact that investing in Bitcoin can be a great idea,  but if you manage to keep your investments strong in both success is consequence. However Ethereum will soon be worth more, not identical to Bitcoin but with 4x more at current value.

I think both are very good to be invested. maybe if you have all the funds, you better invest in btc as much as 50% and eth as much as 50%. because both coins are great for long-term investments

to invest me more often in Etherium because if the capital used mediocre still can get profit which I think enough for me different from bitcoin which if wanting enough profit only need big capital because its value is very high

Right now, bitcoin. It's still 50% down on an ATH whereas ETH is about 30%. Simple math based on that shows bitcoin has more room to recover in to over the coming days/weeks.

I'll bet on BTC

I think what ever affects bitcoin in, a way tho, it does affects other coins, if not in  large scale, then its in a small scale,,.

Now my answer is Bitcoin ...

this isn't right place for speculations (we have another board for that purpose). but i would mostly invest in ETH, because so many icos depends on it

Ethereum price by now is really low compare to btc but for me i will buy now eth because btc is already high not like eth by now so think after a few years more it can be similar to btc price i'm sure about it base on this few years also don't forget also ltc now and bcc,i don't recommend neo even it's like eth and ltc by now because the price stock only,I also recommend nano because the developer is so active.

50/50 split sounds like the safe play.

Unless you know something that rest of us don't about either one of these coins, i'd just get qual amounts of both and then try to keep the percentages of them to your complete portfolio around equal.
I'd also recommend throwing in a few other "blue chip" cryptos into the mix as well...

You know the charts, look in the top 20

I can see that ETH will probably go down a bit further from its current level. 0.09 BTC per ETH is still quite overvalued, in my opinion.

BTC is quite undervalued, at least compared to alts right now. Alt season is about to finish and BTC season is about to start again. Expect BTC to outperform the majority of the altcoins on the market in March.

If you're a longterm ETH holder then keep holding, but if you just want to make a short term buck or two, then don't worry about ETH and start accumulating BTC.

I put everything in ETH, since I do not have enough to buy 1- BTC  ::) ::) ::)

good advice I'll give it a try. I was confused, see the price of btc is higher than eth but eth is more stable in terms of price.

Why Bitcoin or Erhereum? I would always suggest both. It is always vest to hold couple of different coins.
At the moment Bitcoin looks a bit better option, but I still would invest in both.

21 million btc ever to be minted, about 100million eth already in circulation with unlimited supply on tap.

you be the judge.

always keep an eye on both!

You can still prioritize investing in bitcoin since the price is perfect for bulk buying rather than in ethereum which is kind of close to its original price. Nonetheless, you can risk in any coin you like as long as you know what you are doing.

Split your money so you can lessen the risk to lose your funds but this we all know that this 2 coins are really promising the price is increasing each year

I will choose Bitcoin 60% And Ethereum 40%. Actually, I changed my mind. I thought Hodling Eth is better than bitcoin at this time. But, By seeing this market down I think without bitcoin eth or others altcoin can't stand.  If bitcoin price will grow then ethereum price will grow too. If bitcoin price will be 30k USD ethereum can reach 3k USD! So, what do you think? I think hodling Btc is better than eth. This is just my formula.

You can do both ethereum and bitcoin. Because both coins has the potential to burst in the future. For now, both also has decreased its value and if you want you can grab the opportunity to purchase bitcoin and ethereum for a low price then if the price goes higher, you can sell it and earn good income.

You can invest in all altcoin and token! Bitcoin and Ether is the best coin at the moment! You can invest 50/50 to gets your profit!

Bitcoin and eth? I personally tend to prefer eth because eth has a bigger chance for higher price. Maybe bitcoin and eth different price now still we never know eth price later. Maybe later eth price can compete with bitcoin.

Well that prediction would be better as we see ethereum now its likely pumping and maybe how much more in a year but its good to invest for btc as now the price going down depth with 50% average for the last value which peak for almost 20k$, if we see for that rate it's more bigger potential to invest for it as we see the progress at the end of year.

If you have the choice between bitcoin ans ethereum, I would sekect ethereum because it already has a good performance toward bitcoin recently. The stats on coinmarketcap confirm this and ethereum has continuously caught up and I assume will overtake bitcoin in the foreseeable future.

bitcoin and ethereum are the two most popular types of crypto today and with its current popularity, I'm pretty sure both types of crypto are crypto types that have a high value in the future. and if I can advise and tell you choose two types of crypto with a 50:50 scale.

I think both are good for investment field, it's just there are some factors that influence enough to choose one of them, if you have high speculation and get a lot of property then I suggest invest in BTC, if you include simple type what is wrong you try to invest in ETH, but do not expect investment to work in the short term, of course you have to prepare mentally to be patient waiting in a long period of time if you want to achieve maximum profit and success.

both equally have good value to be an investment. depending on the choice you will choose which one. investment must be profitable because it can make the value of our money increases and does not make a loss. so you can share in both to be equally profitable.

Both of them are good for investments, split them into 50:50 and buy when the price is going down. Do not buy when the price is too high. Be patient and wait for the market show good chances and don't be panic when you bought and the price is going down, there is a time they will bounce.

both these coins as good, the movement is also very fast and has a nice development. but it seems like if you select then the ethereum preferred because the price is more affordable for the moment when compared to bitcoin.

I think for the next 2-3 years BTC will still be ranked first and will still beat Ethereum, because I see BTC is faster in increasing its price than Ethereum for now, therefore I suggest it is better to now invest in BTC than Ethereum.

I will surely buy Ether at this level because Ethereum is an open software platform based on blockchain technology that enables developers to build and deploy decentralized applications.And now a days you can see many many ICO coming with Ethereum platform. And in this current fall in market you have seen that bitcoin dumped more than 70% from ATH level, other side in Ether its dumped from 1300$ to 800$ level ,mean just 30-40% fall,mean Ether demand is increasing now a days. So I will go for Ether.

for investment should be investment in coin which still has a cheap price like ETH, because the price of ETH is still cheap and can potentially be expensive, in contrast to bitcoin that is too expensive.

Both are good coins BTC #1 and ETH #2 on CMC. But I have more bitcoins on my portfolio rather than with ETH. Whether you choose BTC or ETH make sure that you are going to hold it for long term, you will not lose anything on it as long as you are investing while it is on the dip.

Well if i were you, you should invest on both since bitcoin and ethereum were good investments but the problem is bitcoin is very volatile and you could lose a huge money if a huge crash just like a while a ago when bitcoin's value plunged from 12k to 5.5k but on the other hand, other investors saw this opportunity to buy bitcoins and now bitcoin is almost back on track many investors profited on bitcoin. Ethereum is good invest because the value doesn't move all the time.

I prefer for BTC right now.

Invest only money that you can afford to lose. While BTC and ETH increasing in price there could be another correction. If you buy it should be for the long term.

normally i will choose eth, but for now better btc than eth

If i am you, i would have it 75% and 25%. Bitcoin has broken the $20K record and it is now playing at $8K-$9K range. So if you buy bitcoin now at that current price, there is a big possibility that it will hit $20K again. Go for 75% bitcoin and 25% for Ether.

BTC for sure.
BTC will always be in the top 1 of the list in the market.
ETH is a good alternative too for a long-term investment.
But i personally think for now, BTC is more profitable than ETH.
Just make sure you but BTC in the right time, hodl your BTC now.

Both are the right choice of investment.  But I suppose to invest on btc will be the best plan. I  hope you will never able to buy it on this price more in the future . So I wanna tell you to invest on btc.

Put your money in Bitcoin of course while is still it is cheaper to purchase after the corrections. Experts says that Bitcoin will reach ATH once again for this year of higher than $20,000 and lot of good development is now already happening in favor of Bitcoin which is opposite to Ethereum because i did not hear more new development regarding this coin future but only speculations.

for the time being, if I opt for long-term bitcoin as clear if for the long term, bitcoin much more has a good future in comparison to ethereum. but actually both very good.

now a days ethereum is hot coin it will raise in its price early. i think better invest on ethereum. you will get more profit. bitcoin is now only raising and it will stand at constant price at it will reach 15k $.

it looks like you are Caught between two stools! actually these two coins are nice and very promising of its advantages, especially bitcoin. if you are a better long term investment btc. but, if you want an affordable price better ethereum and its profits too lumayam enough.
actually Ball is in your court, you can do strategy 50/50 or 70/30 (bitcoin / ethereum) with 30 also you will be able to buy ethereum because its price is affordable. my important advice Do not pull all your eggs in one basket.

I suggest to invest in ETH rather than BTC

bitcoin and ethereum both have high potential and can be be invested for long term, investing all your money in one coin is not a wise decision instead you can invest in both and also in other coins which is having good future, so I think you can invest 70% in bitcoin 25% in ethereum and the remaining 5% in others which you prefer.

i prefer investing on BTC than Eth because the prize of BTC is far better than that one of Eth when ever Bitcoin prize rise or fall it always affect the prize of Eth. the the rate at which BTC rise is more than that of Eth

Lets go for 50% on each other, because this two is competitive in the blockcahain.

its nice to choose bitcoin for investment. a lot of investors that investing in bitcoin last year got a lot of profit and some of them is a millionaire now. but, you need to invest your money to bitcoin for a long time or for a year to assured your big profit.. but it isnt mean that the ethereum is not good for investing..

Yes, you're right. Invest 50% for Bitcoin and another 50% for Ethereum because when bitcoin pumps the Ethereum also pumps. You look the movement at the chart of bitcoin and ethereum last three months, its always going up.

i like ethereum, because ethereum  is still not to be not limited to a certain supply, and so many big companies are backing it like using smart contract make ethereum very popular in altcoins. In the long term ETH will gift you profit

These two comes strong int he market having it's value strokes and moves qquickly and rapidly on and upward direction. If you must invest in these coins there is no doubt it is a good investment. Need not to worry about the downfall of Bitcoin. I think it is natural there there will be some adjustment at some point in time but definitely it will go back to a price where it was. Go for a 50/50 investment for your money or a 60/40 is not bad enough.

Ethereum raised nicely but if we check its prices against bitcon, its still not at its peak, it was close to 0.15 btc per ether in June 2017, now its under 0.10 but against the US$ its close to 1K. I also agree it has a bright future.

currently, BTC or ETH have the same chance to pump and get back to the best price, but I would advise you to invest in BTC, because currently BTC shows a significant increase compared to ETH, if you are interested to invest in ICO project, I suggest you to join www.daneel.io about the AI development project. you can read the information on their site

EThereum is cheap and in a couple of months there will be an increase this is the moment

if you want a long-term investment, better in btc, because btc has enormous potential in the future, and the second option is also very good but to beat btc it is very difficult.

In any, it'll certainly be profitable. Any of these cryptos are good investments. You could go for BTC and wait for the pump. Let me use what happened early this year as an example, since BTC dropped to 8k$ and now it's at 10k$. This could even reach 20k$ after the pump. So BTc or even ETH is a good investment for long term.

I suggest the you you invest in Ethereum with 60% and 40% in Bitcoin. Bitcoin is now get back to the game and aiming for a new all time high while Ethereum have a room for more gains because the price stagnate in $1000.

I think that Ethereum is the best investment opttions , because it is like the mothers of crypto currency , but bitcoin can fail in value at any time , but ethereum will b ealways use by startups to fund and turn their ideas into reality and from investors to invest in this projects , but bitcoin has no any future , it is more like a store of value

you have opened my mind, it is true eth is the right choice if you want to invest. because it's all clear, unlike the btc that anytime can be lost unnoticed.

btc has a drastic increase and decrease so to minimize the risk I think having eth becomes a good choice. eth has a stable price and good eth platform to use, so it has very good eth and has btc gives profit.

This all time battle of two incomparable coins tired me.
Do not compare this solutions. Etherium is big smart contract platform. Bitcoin simple payment system

For me its nice if 50/50 to invest that because enthereum and bitcoin is nice to invest and hold.bitcoin is very great idea if you invest that because now a day bitcoin is a great price and moving to rise how about coming years bitcoin will so expebsive to sell and the ethereum to is nice also to hold because the price of it is slowly to rise and if you have a patience you can get a great profit.

It seems that both of your coins have a good future and will be better invested in both. But if someone should choose it, I think ethereum get more trust.
