Bitcoin Forum

This is just my personal feeling, groundless. If my idea is wrong, please correct it.
I learned about cryptocurrency only last year. I was lucky to know several senior players. I found a preference among my friends. Friends who support bitcoin will despise other coins, and he will scoff at new play items in the market. Friends who support Ethereum are very interested in new projects and will understand or participate in them. Over time, I feel that the friends who support bitcoin are conservatives. He only agrees with bitcoin; The friends who support Ethereum are energetic.
The most important reason for Ethereum's success is that Ethereum's smart contract adopts Turing complete technology, which makes the function of smart contract very powerful, and gives birth to popular application innovations such as ICO, defi, NFT, gamefi, etc.I think bitcoin has not changed and may not need to change. Bitcoin is concerned by the state, and Ethereum is a cryptocurrency that cryptocurrency players must buy.
 I'm just a feeling of myself. I don't mean to offend anyone.

More dynamic but about what?

Transaction speed, block time.
Value transacted per second or transaction per second.

Ethereum has faster speed and more dynamic with gas price but transaction fees are not cheap even that blockchain is more dynamic than Bitcoin.

Bitcoin network is more secured than Ethereum network. They are all good blockchains and BTC, ETH are good to invest but if you need to find a better, it is BTC.

The change of basic technology will bring application innovation. Ethereum's two-tier and three-tier technologies are becoming more and more mature. The opportunity of industry transformation still lies in Ethereum's layered technology. It should be proficient in two-tier and three-tier technologies as familiar with bitcoin technology. Bitcoin is very stable and unchanged. It is the best investment. But I think Ethereum is more fun.

The blockchain for bitcoin can be used to deploy smart-contracts through counterparty and build dapps within it. Ethereum made it easier with Solidity which is much easier that create and deploy smart-contracts in an efficient way. From this perspective, Ethereum is much more dynamic than bitcoin but bitcoin is specialized in electronic payments and has nothing to compete with Ethereum.

Many innovations were born from Ethereum, ranging from smart contracts, Defi and NFT. ETH innovations in the future may continue to develop in accordance with technological trends and developments. Maybe this is what causes ETH to be more dynamic than Bitcoin.

I know about that, i will try to sell you if people and so many bitcoin supporters are aware about that. Have you ever heard the second layer solution called RSK and lightning?

These second layers platforms were dedicating to fix the innovation problems that faced by bitcoin. I know that so many people were also saying the same thing like you since bitcoin has limitation caused by it was not programmed or adopting the smartcontract. I should remind you that ethereum was using the bitcoin code to create the smartcontract.

These second layer solution makes you able to issue your token like ethereum. Since bitcoin native chain will not able to adopt the smartcontract and bitcoin community was creating the second layer solution for bitcoin to fix the innovation problem that faced by bitcoin.

Of course Ethereum is more dynamic than Bitcoin. Bitcoin doesn't have really big features and it is not cared very much in terms of development. But it is not the same for Ethereum. The developers are always working on new updates. Ethereum 2.0 is really promising. As long as Ethereum keeps being updated, it can even dethrone Bitcoin after some point. Bitcoin is just enjoying its spot for now.

Not really, Lighting network are the proof that Bitcoin really can adapt and makes very cheap transaction fee while Ethereum developers only still promises about it.
Also, theres so many development on Bitcoin, check on its github https://github.com/bitcoin

I think investing in Bitcoin is more like investing in Gold and investing in Ethereum is like investing in stocks. Bitcoin investors is much more conservative than Ethereum ones - that's for sure.

You may have that type of opinion and you just have to accept your friends that are all in with bitcoin. There's nothing wrong with any of your opinion towards to the investments that you're owning and you're literally going to have those good words because you own that. But needless to say, bitcoin and ethereum are always the great cryptocurrencies that someone must own.

We're all players or investors here and we all have our ways of investing and the likes in the market. But Eth being at the 2nd, I own it and will also encourage people to buy it but I'll still make them know and aware of the fluctuations.

Ethereum platform is widely used in different bounty campaigns that’s true. However you can simply invest in ETH and trade it in crypto market and never take part in all those new projects that can scam any moment and leave you without your investments. You can even trade BTC and have all your investments in BTC and in any moment convert BTC/ETH, create ERC-20 wallet and join some project. Everything depends on your inner desires: just to trade (that is risky by itself) or to take part in some projects and to risk more.

You have noticed correctly, that Ethereum is developing all the time (new projects and updates), as opposed to stuck Bitcoin. People who prefer Bitcoin make their choice in favour of safety, as Bitcoin is one of the safest investments in the crypto world. Those who invest in new defies, new projects and altcoins are ready for risks and they are more likely to have a big profit.

I think ethereum is no less risky than bitcoin. all assets in the crypto market for me have the same risk. it is only because bitcoin dominates trading in the market that more and more people think bitcoin is safer than any other asset.
when we can not manage well, all will end badly. Ethereum is no exception.

Ethereum and Bitcoin are on par after several years of development.
Bitcoin and Ethereum have different purposes. Although Bitcoin was originally used as a substitute for conventional currency when it was first created, it is also a medium of payment transactions and a means of storing value. But Ethereum was developed as a platform so that it can facilitate P2P transactions and applications through its own currency tools.
Investing in Bitcoin is because of stability, and people who lack risk will give priority to investing in Bitcoin. The development of Ethereum is indeed comparable to Bitcoin. If your economy permits, you can buy both at the same time.

Based on experience in cryotocurrencies, regarding network security, Bitcoin is still ahead of Ethereum. Likewise in terms of transactions, Bitcoin is much faster in my opinion. The case you make as an example is just a story, but here we want the facts. In my opinion, there is only one complaint about Bitcoin, namely the high price, so collecting it is not an easy thing.

Ethernet chain has been congested in the past year, and gas has increased sharply. Before that, it was a little faster than bitcoin network. There is no doubt that bitcoin has the highest security.

Yes, you reminded me. A friend authorized a project party on the wallet, and then the assets of the wallet were transferred away. I can do nothing but cry. I want to remind my friends that they must be careful.

indeed everywhere there must be likes and dislikes but in my opinion ethereum is similar to Bitcoin, Ethereum is a distributed public blockchain network. While there are many technical differences between Bitcoin and Ethereum, the most important difference is their purpose and function.
Bitcoin offers a peer-to-peer electronic money system for Bitcoin payments or transfers. While Ethereum focuses its blockchain on running decentralized programs, including Ether payments or transfers, Ethereum uses a concept called smart contracts.
so use coins depending on your goal.

I think this needs to be clarified, it doesn't apply to us. There is no such thing as hating one coin to another, we consider it all to survive for the sake of mutual support between cryptocurrencies. It's just that each network does have a different version so delivery is the most important thing because until now Ethereum has not been friends with us regarding GAS.
I'm not denying how we really should own Ethereum, but that doesn't mean we're denying a potentially great coin in the future. Only quality issues are considered by every trader or investor as transaction fees.

That's just the larger Ethereum use case and family of toolkits for developers to easily create DAPPs with Solidity. Bitcoin still has the ability to deploy smart contracts with the RSK network, but it is difficult to do many things on it.
People pour money into DAPPs and use Ethereum more and you think Ethereum is more dynamic than Bitcoin.
If you go to El Salvador, look at how they use Bitcoin with the Lightning network. They transact instantly with zero cost.

When it comes to cryptocurrencies people are more likely to talk about bitcoin, ethereum and the top 10 coins, even though many other coins in cryptocurrency also have good prospects at this time, but because the buying and selling prices of bitcoin and ethereum are promising, people focus only on the two bigger ones, even though bitcoin has a big risk in investing compared to other coins, but because many people have successfully invested in bitcoin, there are many reasons for people to talk about it.

Etherum's innovations made it even more popular, and the Smart contracts adopted by many other blockchains gave Etherum a very positive impact. I love Ethereum as well as Bitcoin. we need to distinguish between the two, Etherum is an Altcoin as an alternative to bitcoin. Unlike the case with Bitcoin which does have a very high price and is not classified as an altcoin, so Etherum was created as an alternative to bitcoin.

"Dynamic" and "better" are different words. If you think bitcoin is better than you are free to believe that. However ethereum is certainly a lot more dynamic, it has changes, the biggest change of eth 2.0 is still long way to go, but we are at least talking about it. There are constantly newer and newer things trying to be implemented on ethereum. That is a proof that eth blockchain is more dynamic because there are more changes and all that. Bitcoin blockchain by most part stays unchanged, sure there has been few changes since its conception, but it has been very slow and very rare.

This is why I honestly believe that there is going to be some sort of continuation of that in the future as well. We will always see bitcoin stay nearly the same and rarely ever change, whereas ethereum constantly adding new stuff to make it more dynamic.

Could be, But people give more priority to security, they do not skimp on paying more to keep their assets secured. Bitcoin blockchain is much more secure and vastly used than ethereum chain. It's true that Ethereum SmartContract has given birth to many applications but now the binance chain is taking over that market. But the dominancy of Bitcoin is unbeatable, there is no one equivalent/competitive to it.

Nothing beats out Bitcoin on some aspect but we cant really deny that Smart contracts is something really that have edge compared to typical Bitcoin blockchain but as long the demand is there then

it cant really be overtaken that easily but well its not an assurance since everything is possible on this market.The only rival or competition i do see is on BnB and ETH which these both things

are really tending to take the spot on the top.They are undeniably the current best altcoins in the current as of this moment in the market today.

It is . Eth is more dynamic than in btc because it can do things that btc cant do but when it comes to supporters I think its only a co-incidence that the people you ask have a bias opinion to btc and not with eth.
 I am a btc supporter but I'm Verry open to eth or even to other altcoins and tokens tho I'd say that Bitcoin had change and the change can be felt by other things and not because btc is also going to have its own smart contract features just like eth .

This is the purpose of altcoins, to do things that Bitcoin can’t do because we know Bitcoin is limited yet many still support this one because this is the origin of cryptocurrency, and that’s the respect we always give to Bitcoin.

In terms of innovations and usage, ETH are way more flexible that’s why its next to Bitcoin and considered as king of altcoins, there’s no doubt on this because its already proven. Though of course, we can’t replace Bitcoin on top, it will remain on that position even if many altcoins are trying to replace it.

Actually, there is a different use-case between Bitcoin and ETH which made them not in the competition. Bitcoin remains on the top and highly in demand because it was the first crypto where we can use to buy stuff and pay bills which ETH had use for developing projects. It is just a matter that has been bind together because they are cryptocurrency but in a matter of its usefulness, they go in a different situation.

But if we take a look at the market, ETH had placed such an important role. And I agree with what the topic had said.

In my personal opinion, the Ethereum platform also has advantages over Bitcoin such as:
Transaction speed is faster than Bitcoin
Transaction fees are cheaper than Bitcoin
While Ethereum is like a smartphone with a series of updated applications. This is a huge advantage of Ethereum.
Those who want to invest safely choose Bitcoin. Bitcoin has the highest security and is more stable. You are one of the project developers, you will definitely choose ethereum.

Thus, in general, they're all excellent. Bitcoin to a more protected site and bitcoin that's much more active. All want their own set of benefits, therefore it's important to decide whichever to use. If you're planning to purchase, only bitcoin is a good option, but if you're a strategy implementation process, blockchain is indeed the way to go.

You could describe ethereum as more dynamic but that is not the whole story. The most popular applications on ethereum are defi platforms which are ponzi and casino-like. There are also issues with centralization and security. Most people don't care because they just want to make money but it is worth considering the differences. Bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme. It is useful in more important ways.

Bitcoin being the first to gain massive adoption is still dominating the crypto space. Bitcoin plays major role in transfer/exchange  of funds from fiat to crypto currency. Ethereum, on the other hand have gained popularity as a result of the increasing number of tokens being built on its blockchain by smart contracts as well as the emerging use of DApps on the platform. All these makes Ethereum more dynamic.

In terms of investment, I will prefer a long term investor to go for Bitcoin, while a short term investor can go for Ethereum - this is because it may be safer to invest in Bitcoin when compared to the use of DApps/DeFi on etheruem blockchain.

Because those friends that supports Bitcoin Believes in the future of crypto and what this can offer to help the world.

Bitcoin supporters are here for technology , here for the future .

While those who supports Ethereum are >>>

They are mostly here to Profit , they are here to find another project to invest and gain another income things that surely all of us wanted but at least Bitcoin supporters are not aggressive in market movement , mostly investing and holding .

It must be admitted that ethereum is more dynamic than bitcoin, the large number of ethereum-based tokens is certainly proof that the ethereum platform is very good to be developed even better, and now there are many large successful platforms such as BNB, LINK, MATIC and so on.

Both have different functions, bitcoin is more suitable for us to invest in the long term, while ethereum is suitable for both, both long term and short term, bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency to be launched, that means bitcoin has a better future compared to other coins, while ethereum is a coin that is in the number two position at the moment, overall both have good prospects in the future, both are safer if we invest, compared to other coins.

Ethereum does have an advantage at this point, so many choices people take to invest in ethereum, even ethereum is able to prove itself and convince people that they are in the number two crypto position, it is not an easy thing to reach such a position, if there is no development what ethereum did, almost all coins that adopted the ethereum style managed to be in a good position, so it's very fitting that erehereum is where it is today.

Ideally ethereum should be the absolute best cryptocurrency out there, even more than bitcoin because ethereum is the platform that empowers most of the other cryptocurrencies. It is a open source platform that has dynamic use cases unlike bitcoin that has just one  major use case which is to be used as a mes of monetary value transfer & investment

If we look at their uses and function in the market, we will choose ETH as the most important which in fact that is the reality. But, the people are just looking for an investment which brought to their mind that Bitcoin will have that capability and profitable which we can't deny.

Well, to believe that ETH is more dynamic than Bitcoin is just those who are more fun in investing and participating in new projects. But for those who just come for Bitcoin alone, they'll never think about it. That is, of course, not all have seen their real market value as these people only focusing on their individual prices.

Tell me my opinion is the best cryptocurrency because unlike bitcoin and I can only be used to make payment Italian as a block chain that is highly secured cost less to Mitchell's auctions and also can be used for development of new projects like NFT Defi and some other niche Projects. A lot of great coins and tokens have been bought from the ethereum blockchain BNB being the most successful so far. Eth is a cryptocurrency that is very versatile and is needed for this market to boom

I think so. There are various defi applications, nft, various financial derivatives and games on eth, which can greatly improve the liquidity of eth. Will also attract more funds to participate in various projects on eth. This is a forward cycle, but sometimes the gas fee is a bit disgusting

This is the reason bitcoin is a currency whereas ethereum is not. Ethereum may not remain powerful when another platform with advanced features will be developed. No one could argue there would no chances for new technology to be invented to replace ethereum as litecoin was the leader in altcoin space and it was replaced by ethereum by providing new applications through smart contracts.

ICOs were in practice before etehreum was introduced to this crypto space and I would have to say ICO scams were happening in big numbers only after ethereum's smart contract as before ethereum, people needed a full coin development to go for ICO scams but after the introduction of smart contracts scammer were able to plan up anything in over time and made announcement topic here in the morning. In my opinion, ethereum ruined altcoin industry when comparing the good projects against scammy ones.

You are comparing two completely different networks. Both were built for different purposes. Ethereum is more dynamic because it was built for being dynamic. It was created for making distributed apps (you are probably more familiar with the term dapps) through smart contract. On other hand, bitcoin was created as a p2p decentralized currency that people can use for making daily transactions just the way they use fiat currency. It wasn't made for executing smart contracts or running dapps. If you want to use dapps, then its ethereum. If you want to use it as a currency, bitcoin is your better option (based on how congested and messed up eth fees are).

Comparing bitcoin and ethereum in terms of how dynamic their network are is very relative. We could see the ethereum limitation now with lots of project deploying on it. Bitcoin has been stable and secure and the fee is cheap but the rise in value of bitcoin has raise the tx fee a bit. Ethereum network however is almost unusable because of outrageous fee based on traffic and congestion on it's network!

Ethereum and bitcoin basically have differences in purpose and function. Is Ethereum better? It can't be said yes. But ETH does have an advantage like in smart contracts in the evolution of ETH 2.0 and of course this makes ETH a better choice for bitcoin in terms of investment. But overall the features of ETH are almost the same as bitcoin.

Ethereum has a different goal than Bitcoin. The two leading cryptocurrencies have drastically different use cases and goals, no need to compare as for me. Bitcoin is an alternative to fiat money, acting as a medium of exchange for payments and a store of value for saving or speculation. On the other hand, while the Ethereum network supports the transfer of value in ETH from one party to another, ETH itself is also used to power the operation of smart contracts — computer programs that perform certain actions when specific conditions are met — and the dApps they make possible.

I think that Ethereum is more dynamic because of its price. It is greatly lower than Bitcoin price, thus it opens more options to impact on it, to play with it. It is cheater to move the price from one to another direction. But as you've mentioned, lots of projects also play a solid role in making a decision in which way Ethereum price move next.

But I strongly disagree that one day Bitcoin can be replaced with Ethereum in top. As the top is formed by market capitalization, it is impossible for Ethereum to surpass Bitcoins market cap. Right now it Bitcoins cap is more than 2 times greater, and I cant imagine what can Ethereum do to gain so much.

since the last few months the use of ethereum has increased, I think ethereum is more dynamic than bitcoin but there are a few obstacles that occur in ethereum, namely high gas costs which make transactions constrained for the future how we store ethereum as a popular coin of all time, all judgments depend on how we respond

Yes no dout in this Ethereum is a second bitcoin because now buying bitcoin for every person not easy but Ethereum is also in buying range so can buy it now and hold it for great profit ethurum project working very very well  hope we can see 10k$ in this bull run

We say ethereum is dynamic because with the ethereum network we can create tokens, this is what makes using tokens more popular than making coins like NEO, or Bitcoin, I agree ethereum is said to be dynamic and I'm sure because of its increasing use will make ethereum continue to survive for long time.

There will be no room for fun in economy. Bitcoin is a serious investment opportunity and also will act like a serious momentary system where ethereum is kind of platform for hosting smart contracts. There are lots of differences between these two hence I never agree to compare these two cryptocurrencies.

The people here are trying to emphasize what they are liking but at the same time they should not underestimate the innovations brought by bitcoins.

I must agree with this point. Compared to what are the the innovations we got because of the introduction of ethereum, I feel like we got many disadvantages. Like someone has notified if there are few or very limited number of altcoins, then most new investors will not get deviated into some other shitcoins but they will keep on investing only with bitcoins that might have taken bitcoin into some huge price levels than what we are having right now. Ethereum must be the prime factor for driving out investments into other coins.

People who are able to differentiate between the potential of bitcoin and all other coins definitely will not go underestimating bitcoin and its applications. So, we need to move on by ignoring such people.

Yea in terms of use case Ethereum beats BTC but that doesn't matter much since BTC is just more trusted by others than ETH, or maybe it's because we all know who the founder of ETH is? Maybe cos if ETH founder remains unknown to this day and it's fully decentralized it would have been the better BTC we all want isn't it?

yes, that's right... I totally agree with your post, maybe this is a shortcut that you take to invest, in my opinion the most profitable and dynamic crypto coin market is only bitcoin, until now no one can match it

What do you mean by more dynamic? I think both are dynamic. Even Ethereum seems to have more use cases than Bitcoin, but Bitcoin has varied functions. It is a bit difficult to compare which one is more dynamic because both of them are dynamic in prices and the real use cases. I think we don't need to compare these coins, each has its own advantage. Don't think that Bitcoin is not really dynamic because people don't make a smart contract through Bitcoin. It has another side that can be called as dynamic. If we consider those coins as a payment tool, BTC seems better and dynamic.

#edited

I think OP got some misunderstanding here which for me I can't compare Bitcoin to Ethereum.
They were created for different purposes. Ethereum's major feature is for smart contracts. Bitcoin is for payment, like the value of it for holding is good, which solves the traditional banking or payment we have now.

Using the Lighting Network for Bitcoin transactions is quite difficult for ordinary people to understand. Therefore, it is not widely used. In addition, Lighting was created for the application of small transactions and cannot cover all participants in this market if desired. Therefore, Lighting is not yet a solution to the problem of high fees for Bitcoin transactions.
We can say that ethereum has a similar problem. But we know that the ethereum network has been updated for almost a year, and this is being done systematically and so far, on the whole, successfully. After its update, this coin will compare favorably with Bitcoin.

Yes, But ETH does have an advantage like in smart contracts in the evolution of ETH 2.0 and of course this makes ETH a better choice for bitcoin in terms of investment. But overall the features of ETH are almost the same as bitcoin. :)

maybe what he means is that ethereum is more dynamic, in terms of making coins that are not too complicated and the costs are not large, the ethereum network is indeed very easy and convenient for various things to track all kinds of crimes or other things that are very easy to find. although now many are using the ethereum platform. like BSC, MATIC, a lot of coin dusting is misused by scammers

It must be admitted that cryptocurrencies can be big as now because ethereum is not bitcoin or something else, the number of projects that use the ethereum platform makes the market move positively, it is worth saying that ethereum is more dynamic than bitcoin.

I think ethereum can't be more dynamic like bitcoin, if ethereum can work like bitcoin it's impossible, as we see in the crypto market bitcoin works very well compared to other coins, indeed eth is the second number listed in crypto.

Each coin has a different concept for developing Mate, so they will never be the same, and if for example ETH could be the same as Bitcoin then the transaction fees would also be insane, even crazier than now.

There is one improvement in the calendar on Bitcoin which is Taproot activation, should happen this week.

What do you mean that Ethereum 2.0 is promising? it didn't solved the gas fees right? well, that's what I heard as people is till complaining about it because now it is more expensive than bitcoin itself.

Ethereum might be dynamic because obviously the devs are very active, but it seems that's one of it's drawback though, issues after issues have arises and the devs can't cope up with it and their iteration releases are always behind schedule.

In terms of function, Ethereum is indeed more comprehensive than the actual application of Bitcoin. Ethereum is more functional. Bitcoin is the leader and the king of the industry. The earliest digital currency is the consensus of the future. This is also difficult to shake.

Ethereum is adopting new technologies, it is developing new DAOs so people have a big choice of how to work on this market.
We can work with NFT projects, we can trade, we can invest in defi-projects, so Ethereum gives a lot of opportunities, while Bitcoin gives us the only opportunity to hold and wait when the price grows.

Yes..of course with your opinion but I say different because bitcoin is king of all coins in crypto market including ethereum and even now btc price is very high and many investors join there, they know profit almost, they get rich in no time and they have a lot of experience about it.

In terms of market capitalization, bitcoin and ethereum are the world's two most valuable cryptocurrencies. However, Ethereum's goal differs from that of Bitcoin. With Ethereum, on-chain transactions can be processed more quickly than Bitcoin, with significantly different uses and goals. What makes Ethereum appealing is its simplicity. Ethereum is much more dynamic than Bitcoin. There is a limited supply, and it has a proven network.

Well, the truth is, I do not think that ETH will replace BTC, ETH is very good, it has its own network for carrying out projects and has a considerable currency value, however it is necessary to highlight that it has many cons, in the network eth its fees They are exaggeratedly expensive, these days I changed a couple of currencies that they paid me on the ETH network and they charged me more than 150USD in pure commissions, for many it is nothing, but for me that is too much, also if we take into account that each time that BTC falls in price ETH suffers very radical falls, and BTC has a life of its own, while ETH does not, those are the reasons why ETH can never replace BTC.

Being dynamic doesn't make it bigger, I mean it has been more dynamic for years and it has been under bitcoin for a long time anyway. This means that as long as you end up working towards just being more dynamic, then you are not going to get bigger. What I believe ETH needs right now is getting more viral, we have seen Ashton Kutcher promoting XRP before, we have seen Elon promoting Doge, we have seen famous people talk about crypto all the time.

However we have not seen too much from ETH, same Ashton Kutcher actually had a video with Vitalik as well but it didn't get too famous, it was just instagram I believe, we need more famous people doing more viral stuff to get ETH to a higher level. It could happen, but it requires a lot more involvement from celebrity world, could be financial like company CEO's that are known like Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos and such, or it could be just Hollywood people as well.

Ethereum is dynamic because many projects are based on Ethereum and make the use of ethereum continue to increase, if in total, ethereum and ERC20 platform projects dominate the marketcap up to 65%, unfortunately ethereum transaction fees are currently very expensive, so that the development of ethereum to dominate the market will be hampered.
