Ethereum is the future of crypto, bitcoin is not.

[phas129nnn]

From the current image of bitcoin in the international market the future is much obvious and we can clearly see that bitcoin is the future of crypto. Ethereum is currently far back away and it is also considered as a weaker crypto while bitcoin is a much stronger currency.

in fact plenty of new and nice coins that appear like ICN. Well, although this time the coin eth is fairly good, but very many other coins that might align with eth. however, to date I have not seen any other coins that have the potential to shift the position of the most bitcoin as well cryptocurrency

[Melnikof]

It may be. when Ethereum appeared, everyone said that it would surpass bitcoin until it happened.

I am sure that Ethereum will be used always but Bitcoin can really lose its value and popularity. Buterin and his team are constantly working on the improvement of their platform and the safety of the cryptocurrency.

And, yes, as a matter of fact, we hear about Buterin each week, but there's no news about Bitcoin upgrade. And it's a sign of something bad. I heard something positive about the upgrade many months ago.

I don't think that Ethereum is a future crypto currency, Now still bitcoin is a first and most popular crypto currency than others, Also we accept it now a lot of people don't know about bitcoin but in that all situation bitcoin is still better than Ethereum.

[longergou]

I really disagree with your point of view. Ethereum is always a follower and it cannot surpass the value of Bitcoin. Friends, bitcoin is limited! What do you mean by limiting? Know why gold is so expensive?

Two stupid threads alone today from trollypop. Why the mods allow newcomers to start threads or even bypass newb jail is beyond me. Market has changed so the troll is irrelevant at this point.

I pity the poor sod. Wasted a year of his life slagging off something he secretly loves yet failed to get close to the bottom

Too bad they don't get a real job and then have steady money coming in to stock their own wallet up with coin instead of ramble online just to get another sock ignored.

both of which are pretty good coins with ever-increasing developments will be great by relying on them to be the coins that give the Cryptocurrency market a better future and be able to make even more profits going forward.

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.

hahaha, very strange article. very very funny. Ethereum is popular, but it is not possible if the ethereum will shift the bitcoin...................

[poktur]

In my opinion, the future determines how much the crypto currency will cost, and it is the future due to the Etherium and its development that the crypt has!

[PROdotBITCOIN]

I am sure that Bitcoin will forever remain the king of the crypto currency. ETH technologically can be better than Bitcoin, but it still will not become a leader.

[hornetsnest]

Ethereum is just a premined altcoin.There is nothing that can be done on Ethereum that cannot eventually done on bitcoin.NOTHING.

It is quite possible and this scenario. Ethereum really in any case has a good prospect for growth in the future, and various options are possible with respect to bitcoin. Bitcoin is not yet in its good form and if it does not have very fast and almost free transactions, many coins will soon bypass it. After this, bitcoin may lose the prospect of its growth. Investors will not invest their funds in a non-functional coin only because its name is bitcoin.

[solkemyu]

Each altcoin comes to state they are the new bitcoin, yet after every one of those years Bitcoin is as yet the number 1 and I figure it will be number 1 for a long circumstances. Bitcoin is still in Beta and could simply be better and better.

[Pay phone82]

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.

[CLywaTeLb]

Three years have passed, and now we see what kind of speculation this is. Crypto needs BTC, like the biblical people needs for the prophet. Crypto is still very weak, and disabling BTC can lead to long-term oblivion and the dispersion of the crypto industry.
Let's support BTC!

[aris av]

I think bitcoin will still be the crypto future, ethereum is indeed the best altcoin, but ethereum can't replace bitcoin as the leading crypto currency.

[lorapalmer]

To me, both of the coins look strong and they will survive in the future for sure. They are just different. Bitcoin is the first one crypto, ethereum is already a new generation.

[funkenschuster]

I figure I going to run with the bitcoin here ethereum is a decent coin and I figure the best in venture in light of its normal cost in the market when could in any case go up yet I believe even in a high cost could in any case go up as far as possible and make it to the best.

[LuckyMan21]

I do not fully agree with this statement. Bitcoin is also a very good coin and has great potential. The etherium is certainly promising, but not better than bitcoin

[Frob1992]

I assume this is a incorrect judgment, due to the fact the bitcon is no longer a technology! Bitcoin is like gold, people put money into it to keep these coins and not to spend, this is, it acts as a tool to save your cash! Ethereum is an incredible technology, but it is able to get replaced, bitcoin - no!

SO this thread is created in the year 2015 and it has really some sense since this year is 2018 and the market price for ether has reached to 1,400 just like what it is being implied on the post. Probably this could be true that ethereum will be the future of crypto and not bitcoin. Well i do think that this is possible since most of the crypto in the market are ethereum platform base.
