Ethereum is the future of crypto, bitcoin is not.

Ethereum has big advertising  Let's see what happens with this new coin / platform. From what I've read it's not even near to a competition to Bitcoin.

Ether exchange rates have fallen from the peak of BTC0.145 to less than BTC0.060 as of now. And early signs are that it is on a downward trend. The Ether basics don't support such an inflated market cap (which stands at more than $30 billion right now). A crash can occur at anytime, dooming those who have made heavy investments in ETH.

I think the price of bitcoin will increase for continue mining

ETH will allow $2T of underground economy to become more structured (and possibly less underground) through DAOs.

If it captures 1% of that $2T, it is equivalent to $20B, which would put ETH somewhere around $150. Those who sell for $2 will shit bricks, eat sand and may even commit suicide in the years to come. If it captures 10% of that ETH will be $1500. I know it sounds crazy, but so did the Internet in 1995.

Once it's launched their main focus will be on scalability, which I think is the real reason crypto is not ready for mainstream. Once they can handle 100K TPS (and I'm sure they will), it's game over.

I dont totally agree with you. ethereum has alot potential but I don't think it's enough to surpass Bitcoin.

I've got a letter regarding the Ethereum hardfork. It says that everyone needs to withdraw all ETH from exchanged to personal wallets. Can I trust this information? Anyone else received such mail?

Double check any e-mails before clicking on the links found inside. During hardfork it's better to keep your ETH in a wallet but I think it won't affect much as this is not a chain split like Bitcoincash. But better to keep them safe.
If they ask anything like withdraw to a certain address or 'login to you wallet here' then trust that email.

That post is way back 2015.. Am sure the writer now understand Bitcoin is the leader and Ethereum too will surely be a BOOM.

That is right. The ETH price has stablized in the last few days. It could rise soon.

[sehoon]

Bitcoin is still the best of course. But it's not impossible for eth to surpass bitcoin.

[Minecache]

According to last market behaviour BTC is very strong now. I suppose it will grow up to $25k in 2018 pretty easy. So bitcoin won't disappear or be dumped in future.
About eth. I'm waiting huge pump soon. I believe that it's very undervaluated now.

[danielcansil]

ethereum is one of the most popular altcoins on the world, it also has potential to develope and rise more in the future. but i dont think eth can replace bitcoin position in the future for a very long time, bitcoin still the most popular on the world and be used by everyone on the markets. so eth can be the bestcoin in the future but it may take a very longtime.

[dss1986]

Does anyone know when the information on the posin eth? when the vitalik introduces us to the course of the matter?)

I agree, ethereum may take the place and lead but only in the 2nd to the bitcoins Ethereum is not the very major currency. Perhaps Ethereum can't go with the bitcoin if we observe what happens when bitcoins price is mooning almost all alts is down so its clearly that no alt can affect bitcoin but bitcoin can affect all alts.

[thesosorr]

It might happen. However, in terms popularity and acceptance global community, it remains btc still good than eth. After all, newcomers are trying to invest heavily in btc rather than alt.

[andrei56]

There are no serious reasons for claiming that the etherium has a future in the crypto currency, and Bitcoin is not, I do not see. And in general it is very foolish to say this about the current and unconditional leader of the Crypto-currency.

Bitcoin is as strong as it is has been for a very long time and no coin is even close to surpassing it, so I think people need to stop focusing in what it is going to be the next bitcoin, there is only one bitcoin and it is never going to replaced by any other coin.

[Jafri101]

Yes you are right but its for a very short term may be. because bitcoin cant be ended. It can go down or up while yes altcoins will come up rapidly now like eth and ltc and dash coins will grow their worth now.

[Shivasenap]

This guy has predicted it correct.Those who sold it for 2$ will cry now.

[omerchip]

I think too because ethereum is so faster and usable and it got smartcontract but bitcoin gotta nothing.i think bitcoin is so unnecessary

[sandos]

I don't know, maybe. Bitcoin and Ethereum are different roles. Ethereum will encourage the develops of other altcoins.

[Greenrace]

Im with Etherum since begining ,
I really belive that this coin can skip Bitcoin and be nr 1 in Crypto World.

ethereum is altcoins and bitcoin are pure coins both will not drop each other but will reinforce each other so if the ethereum gets stronger then bitcoin will be so
