Title: BITCOIN WILL LOSE 50 PER CENT OF MARKET SHARE TO ETHEREUM Post by: vit05 on September 19, 2018, 04:39:20 AM http://www.businesscloud.co.uk (http://www.businesscloud.co.uk/news/bitcoin-will-lose-50-per-cent-of-market-share-to-ethereum)
Bitcoin will lose 50 per cent of its cryptocurrency market share to Ethereum within five years, according to an influential tech expert and business analyst. Ethereum, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, began a price recovery on Friday after being hit hard with a major sell-off in recent weeks. Bitcoin – the biggest digital currency – had also been in decline, but it bounced back quicker than its nearest competitor. Indeed, Ethereum had crashed 85 per cent overall this year. However, Ethereum regained ground late last week, jumping almost 14 per cent after its most recent plunge, only find itself trading again 10 per cent lower once more in the past 24 hours. “Turbulence is a regular, and sometimes welcome, feature of the crypto sector. Therefore, the Ethereum rebound was, and is, inevitable,” said Ian Mcloed, who established art-tech agency Thomas Crown Art with renowned art dealer Stephen Howes. “But not only do we think it will rebound considerably before the end of 2018, I believe that over the longer time it will significantly dent Bitcoin’s dominance. “In fact, I think we can expect Bitcoin to lose 50 per cent of its cryptocurrency market share to Ethereum, its nearest rival, within five years. “Ethereum offers more uses and solutions than Bitcoin, and it’s backed with superior blockchain technology. “This is why we use Ethereum’s blockchain in our art business. It has allowed us to create a system to use artworks as a literal store of value; it becomes a cryptocurrency wallet. “It also solves authenticity and provenance issues – essential in the world of art. All our works of art are logged on the Ethereum’s blockchain with a unique ‘smART’ contract.” Howes explained: “Using this cutting-edge technology, the art world can eradicate one of its biggest and most expensive problems – forgery – and can protect artists, galleries, and private owners and collectors.” Title: Re: BITCOIN WILL LOSE 50 PER CENT OF MARKET SHARE TO ETHEREUM Post by: kindbtc on September 19, 2018, 07:34:57 PM This may become reality in next 5 years but at the moment eth is struggling and if the bear trend keeps pushing the value down then potentially the next support can be 0.025 to 0.026 btc for eth al though most people want to see reversal from here but the problem is that we are not still getting the big volumes required for the bulls.
