Ethereum is the future of crypto, bitcoin is not.

[ichanjay]

This sound like a 12 year old statement. Anyway as much as I don't like bitcoin, fact is it will always be a part of crypto. That would be the advantage of the first mover. Ethereum is the next in line. It will surpass bitcoin but a long way to go

I don't think that ethereum will reach BTC capitalization anytime in future. BTC is a main currency and it will remain so for many years.

Many people out there only know about one cryptocurrency which is Bitcoin. I don't think that Ethereum would be able to surpass Bitcoin in next few years as Bitcoin is one of the most popular cryptocurrency available out there. It has the largest market capital. We should call Bitcoin is the " King of Cryptocurrency ".

Even when it reach 7btc = 1zcash, I'm still now really seeing some interest to that coin. It would be a good thing to have some and then dump though but never had i had an interested to buy and keep them for life. Maybe because I always see it too good to be true. I still keep my faith to BTC.

For me, in any cryptocurrency the bitcoin is the mother, bitcoin is the popular to all users in cryptocurrencies. And because the bitcoin is still alive and its too far to disappear, I will consider it as a future of cryptocurrency not etherium. I saw in the ranking of cryptocurrencies, the etherium is only number two so if the bitcoin will end then the etherium will next to it.

[panosdada]

in my opinion, these 2 cryptocurrencies are not the future about the present. it seems to me that a new cryptocurrency will appear in the next few years, or one of the less popular today will be on a par with these two cryptocurrencies.

bitcoin is the future of crypto, it is the first ever crypto and for me it is the foundation of all altcoins, ethereum is valuable but bitcoin is more valuable, bitcoin is something different from any other altcoins, even in ethereum.

ETH will allow $2T of underground economy to become more structured (and possibly less underground) through DAOs.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2013/04/23/americas-2-trillion-shadow-economy-is-the-recessions-big-winner/

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.

This is totally unfair if BTC is the King then ETH is the Queen.Both coins are different in nature but trusted by millions of people across the world.BTC has its own value and is having larges community in the world.ETH is another high profile Altcoin and its community is also very strong.Investment in both of the coins is safe and return is confirm depend upon trading strategies.

In the world of finance, everything changes so quickly that one can not be sure that tomorrow there will not be a miracle. I think that you should not trust the public opinion so much.

Ethereum is a promising coin that will hold its position in the market in the future, but bitcoin will always be the leader.

[sunrise.now]

Bitcoin and Ethereum are quite different... It is like comparing black to bitter. They both have their own functions and their own future. I think that the price of BTC go up steadily in the long perspective, but as international companies are investing in ETH-based technologies, it will probably do well, too.

The hacker now has absolutely no incentive to sell, ESP if that would bring the market to ruin. This was what he was trying to achieve, the existence of the ETC chain. Remember, he was willing to bribe miners that would reject the hard fork. He got a fork he may not have wanted, but the chain that is holding his value is gaining support and may win out in the public eye. So he will get to keep the funds, without paying a cent to any miner.

what are some of the best ETH wallets these days? I bought a trezor hoping it would cover all my needs, but it does not.. sadly

[Holapola]

It seems that the continuous rise, at what price will it arrive? The two seem to have much future, it would be good a correction to then continue to rise

[MoasKiaet]

Why not bitcoin? Bitcoin is much more popular than ethereal and also the potential of bitcoin is very good so far. sorry if i offend. I am still a beginner in this forum.

Ethereum is a strong coin, and also a lot of people adopt ethereum, but I think ethereum is not as easy as it will beat bitcoin, ethereum is still relatively young and will definitely be hard to beat bitcoin.

The DAO has been hacked. Ethereum is a world computer. Bitcoin is different. Ethereum will serve as a global computing tool or say a global decentralized supercomputer.

[foreverlearningsure2004]

It's contentious, but as a platform for new projects and applications Ethereum undoubtedly ranks first and nobody can fix it, Vitalik Buterin really is one of the most influential people on this planet

[cosimadaisy]

I dont think that. i think bitcoin is more valuable than ethereum. And then in the next 5 or maybe 10 ten years bitcoin, bitcoin is a rare item.
