1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum, Ripple or Litecoin? on: July 20, 2018, 12:08:43 PM
I think Ethereum is very likely to surpass Bitcoin and become the cryptocurrency of the future.

Ethereum is a part of a blockchain network. The main difference between Ethereum and Bitcoin, is that Bitcoin blockchain is focused on tracking ownership of the digital currency while Ethereum blockchain focuses on running the programming code or network.

It is easy to understand why the terms ‘Blockchain’ and ‘Bitcoin’ often get confused – Blockchain does indeed serve as a platform for cryptocurrencies; without Blockchain there would be no Bitcoin. However, it must be emphasized that the scope and potential of Blockchain extends far beyond the world of cryptocurrencies.

Blockchain is the digital, distributed, and decentralized ledger underlying most virtual currencies that's responsible for logging all transactions without the need for a financial intermediary, such as a bank. In other words, it's a new means of transmitting funds and/or logging information. Here are potential uses for blockchain technology.

1. Payment processing and money transfers
2. Monitor supply chains
3. Retail loyalty rewards programs
4. Digital IDs
5. Data sharing

Peer-to-peer transactions (also referred to as person-to-person transactions, P2P transactions, or P2P payments) are electronic money transfers made from one person to another through an intermediary, typically referred to as a P2P payment application. Technically speaking, every transaction is a peer-to-peer (P2P) transfer.  Whether you're using cash, credit cards or ACH payments, there is a buyer/sender on one side and a seller/receiver on the other.

Though in recent years, the definition of P2P transfers has evolved to describe a new way of exchanging money, goods, and services. Moreover, It doesn't rely on traditional intermediaries like banks or credit card companies.
