Ethereum is the future of crypto, bitcoin is not.

[priyankg3]

Maybe it is more like etherium functionality is the future of bitcoin, ether (its currency) is not ?
As presumably once the functionality is fleshed out and tested if it is good some bitcoin sidechain will adopt it ?

[ser54gold]

We all know that price of Bitcoin can not decrease within 50% while Ethereum do, Bitcoin increase up to 200% and Ethereum can not. Bitcoin is the future of the cryptocurrency. And I think Ethereum is always a follower and it cannot surpass the value of bitcoin.

Ethereum does seem to be by far the most promising chain currently. I like that it has the potential to be a superset of very many of the use cases for the other chains.

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'm waiting for this moment. I believe in the future of Ethereum since its appearance on the market. And now he continues to amaze. I think that Ethereum is the currency that will change the current financial system of the world. But bitcoin is too early to give up

And I think that Ethereum has already reached its limit, the maximum it can rise as you said to$ 1500, but not more. The prospect of bitcoin is huge. First of all, due to capitalization and constantly leading positions in the market, the second is a limited issue, the third is the scope of application. For bitcoin you can buy almost everything, unlike Ethereum, which showed such growth only due to the ICO boom. Sooner or later there will be strict requirements for ICO projects, and the popularity of Ethereum will be much lower

This guy has already predicted exactly what is going on with ETH since 3 year ago.
But this guy (user) made only ONE post on Bitcointalk forum then left. What is going on with him? where are you now?
Please give me some idea now.

Too strong of the statement,in my opinion.Both cryptocurrencies are evolivng and developing,and they are used for mostly different things,so i see no reason why both couldnt coexist.I believe that ETH has chance to be on top one day,but i  cant imagine BTC going wanywhere,its first and the oldest and it will stay,in one form or another.

[Zipppcool5]

I think that this is not true. Bitcoin just does not advertise about his developments and many of his secrets have not been studied. In fact, the potential is high and it is unreasonably called a soap bubble. Bitcoin the beginning of our future

[entersandman2907]

Sometime it's nice to go back in time and see how was the situation back than 

[AdamSv]

So they say those who do not have bitcoin. I always strive to ensure that I do not put all the money in one project. Now large investors, first of all, are interested in investing in bitcoin, and not in any other coin.

for me it's all silly to put all the coins in one project,don't understand people ,you can lose all in one not the right solution.

[xiahui135]

deep thinkers are always rare in the market.

At the time, Bitcoin has become a real know-how and it was he who started the global revolution in the world of Finance, which is conducted in our time. But the world does not stand still, as well as the sphere of crypto-currencies and blockchain technologies, so today the priority is for more advanced projects. One such Ethereum is a platform that is the main competitor for the beloved cue ball and promises to make millions of people unemployed. But this does not mean that Bitcoin will disappear, and the ether will remain.

[ugur2222]

Although I don't own any ETH yet I think in this year it will become more "stable" regarding prices - just like currently BTC is (but let's see what halving will bring)

[wbk940122]

I don't think Ethereum  can go beyond bitcoin, there are some things to consider before they can do it. I will still stick with Bitcoin and will not use ether. I know that Bitcoin is now very stable and will not allow itself to trade or spend time with other cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin is my present and future.

[Godday]

Bitcoin and eth also have their own futures, and now for eth and btc the same is talked about as having a very good future, so it's good if we invest

[Boss95rnd]

Agree with you. Ethereum is going to overcome Bitcoin one day, but not in 2018 or 2019. Almost everybody said that in 2018 ETH will be the number one crypto, but still is far away from Bitcoin yet.

[ser54gold]

Actually ethereum has more benefits and functions than bitcoin, but it is very far if we predict that only bitcoin or ethereum will be the future of crypto. I think ethereum is not worthy of being included as a future coin candidate, because it is seen from the limited supply of volume.

[hohuan101]

This topic is from 2015. And it seems to be wrong. We can easily see that btc is the king of altcoins. It has kept top 1 for a long time and has never been replaced;)

Ethereum is succeeding already, throughout the world. With just a few years of its presence and it has already broken the records of bitcoin.I think it has a good chance of being the future of blockchain technology. Many of the innovations used in the Ethereum blockchain are being replicated and improved by other blockchains and founders.
