Nice try to disregard one of the most innovative platforms in technology right now. NXT is hands down the most likely candidate to becoming the altcoin of the future... As a matter of fact, calling NXT a mere altcoin is an insult because it's much more than that. I haven't even mentioned the Asset Exchange, SuperNET, and it's platform for pure decentralized orgs. Nice try though. |

ehm... if Ethereum is a threat to Nxt then what about Bitcoin and all other altcoins? Does it mean they're dead, burned and scattered to the winds?
To me they seems different enough, Ethereum is mainly a platform for decentralized blockchain-based applications but it's not a currency yet. Who would invest in Ether? We don't yet know when it will cease to be inflated. Or maybe someone will build a successful currency on top of it. It must also be seen how it is scalable and what issues they will encounter.
Nxt has not AT implemented (yet) but it's also a currency with a lot of cool features. By the time Etheurem becomes user-ready, in a couple of years, Nxt will be 5-6 versions ahead with many real-world applications.
At this point in time the marketcap of crypto is so small that seeing a threat in each other sounds absurd. It's also driven more by hype and get-rich-quick schemes rather than technology. It's funny to look at CMC but it's insignificant in the great scheme of things, what really matters is adoption by real-world businesses. There's probably market for dozens of platforms.
If in 10 years Ethereum has a marketcap of 500billions and Nxt has 75billions, or the opposite, would you call either unsuccessful?

Are you seriously telling me that NXT is harder to use than bitcoin? Maybe it's time to pull the head from your ass |

I don't see much currency potential in Ethereum (more like a platform for blockchain-based applications) while NXT might be an useful mean of payment.

NXT is established and working. Eth is nothing but a testnet at this point

Bitcoin is a protocol. bitcoin is the first app as a currency. Myspace and facebook are applications of TCP/IP. You compare apple and oranges my friend. |

Let's have a real sophisticated conversation here guys.
Is NXT (AT) a threat to Ethereum? or Vice Versa?
Explain your reasons.
I personally will not give my own opinion at this time, and remain neutral.
Hell, no. Both will settle into their respective niches and more-or-less coexist, because that's how the wide wide world of business typically works these days. That's the question though, will the existence of the other hinder the other from being as successful as it would have been without the others existence? They may be able to co-exist, but to what degree? There's no way to tell, really. At this stage in the game, the entire crypto-economy is little more than a fringe. To get back to your analogy: it's far more like trying to guess the fate and relative dominance of Email, Usenet, BBSs and "Arpanet" as of 1990. Assuming, of course, that cryptocurrency is destined to go mainstream.  |

Just to get it clear! With AT you mean Automated Transactions ? AT was developed by CIYAM Developers and isn't on NXT! |

I'm sure NXT will prevail. But on a trader view I guess we can make a lot of money with ETH. 30000BTC worth of ETH will flood the market soon and there is not much liquidity in altcoinmarkets at the moment. Investers still lost a lot of money and the dump will shakeout more of them when they see empty buy side on orderbooks. Then I will buy. I hope we will see some FUD when trading starts. 2-3 Cent for one ETH is realistic I guess  |

ethereum is already released as of yesterday.... Interesting that Qora has all those features too. But I don't even see a community for it. The forum isn't even working... https://forum.qora.org/ --- without a community following its not going to stick. Also the marketing is another issue, which is what nxt has a problem with. Ethereum on the other hand does have that down i must admit. NXT has it going for them at the moment because of an active community and active developers. no matter how cool of a thing you make, if no one knows about it it aint going to fly. I'd imagine in the early days of facebook, there were so many similar options. It's just the aha moment when the public starts using it for something. we're still waiting for the holy grail app on these platforms... |

both are bulky nonsense crap coins. simple like bitcoin and google will always #1
I was once like you... oh those days are gone... keep an open mind.... being a bitcoin purist is cool and everything, but you gotta be realistic. Bitcoin getting any new features like any of the new altcoins is not going to happen in the foreseeable future. For them to agree on a 8mb block increase took them a few years and that isnt even a big deal. There is way to much at stake to add anything drastic to Bitcoin... are you going to risk your bitcoin investment for them to try out something new with a chance of you losing value in your bitcoin? most likely not, which is why we have altcoins and in the end only a few will be left standing while bitcoin will remain as the gold currency in crypto world. " For them to agree on a 8mb block increase took them a few years and that isnt even a big deal. There is way to much at stake to add anything drastic to Bitcoin... " Lol ? It's a 4 billions $ cryptocurrency. If you fail on some feature you can make people loose a LOT of money. It's easier for a cryptocurrency that worth "nothing" to do some changes than for a cryptocurrency that worth some billions $. |

Ethereum has a bagholderbase just due to their presale, does that count for a strong community? anyways, there's a nice hangout with the Qora dev if you're interested https://beyondbitcoin.org/bonus-hangout-qora-vrontis-ciyam/ |

Yeap, AT is not implemented into NXT platform yet. But it is part of Qora for example and it is not an invention of Ethereum at all. Ethereum is just a copy cat. Just to get it clear! With AT you mean Automated Transactions ? AT was developed by CIYAM Developers and isn't on NXT! |

The future might be neither of the above, it could be Counterparty which is the protocol that is actually using the most secure tried and tested blockchain out there, Bitcoin. Counterparty already ported Ethereum's programming language so everyone can execute Turing Complete Ethereum code on the Bitcoin blockchain: https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/counterparty-recreates-ethereum-bitcoin/ |
