XMR vs Ethereum

[cryptimus prime]

Yes XMR points in several ways in the right direction crypto currencies HAVE TO go in order to SURVIVE. There is even no way around it, don`t fool yourself.
Those who have not realized this even now in light of the current developments are pretty naive.

We will see how high the demand really is, when the CT and GUI are released, which is not far from yet (see Github). Because XMR is at the present moment not really usable for the average user, so there has never been a mass adoption and the current XMR price is not relevant. Till the release of the updates Monero is still in experimental stage like ETH, it can not deliver real world application.

This will change. The price too.

Ethereum does not need to be a currency in order to be successful or expensive.
Nevertheless ETH could be used as some kind of currency in the ETH ecosystem, this would be enough.
