Invest in ETH or ETC?

[Shahin320]

I think  ETH is too much suitable for investing, If you see that before 2017 rate was very low but now day by day rate increased.after bitcoin,eth is the most popular cryptocurrency in the world.

I would really go with Ether only. When the hard split happened for Ethereum it was dropped like anything bad. But if you notice the market then you can see ether overtook the Ethereum classic price in few months of time only. So, the original stuff is always original and you can all the reasons to trust it. So go for the ether investment for sure. If I had to invest $1000 then I will put them into ether only and not the classic one.

I think ETH will be more valuable than ETC because the ETH platform can create tokens for ICO projects and investors can easily buy tokens without problems. I hope in the future ETH can beat BTC and become the most valuable currency in the planet

[shafi alam]

My opinion is ETH,  ETH is the best choice for long term investment,  But other hand If you are short turm investor you can invest in ETC.

[nappoleon]

There are many ICO that accept eth but not a single one that accept etc.
I think etc is not popular than eth.

Then you're not informed.

[nappoleon]

Eth has more devs by a factor of 10.

You're severely uninformed.

[nappoleon]

There are many ICO that accept eth but not a single one that accept etc.
I think etc is not popular than eth.

i think later, ico will use or accept ETC since ETH already high price, my point of view etc price will go up atleast 2x by end of 2017

There are projects that already accept etc. Take for example corion platform. Go figure!

[xbiv2]

It the same

[nappoleon]

I just want to select both, because ETC and ETH have a high potential in terms of marketing. However, ETH had more valuable than ETC in the market and their selling price was more expensive.

Potentials is much bigger moving to etc as the value of this project still undervalued since both project was created by same system just thinking that eth is just supported by old holders and if those holders dumped and move along with etc value will changed up and etc will be more profitable.

I agree with your etc valuation. However imo, ETH is more likely supported by new comers flowing 'dumb money' into the market than the old holders, well, in fact old holders are the minorities initiated ETC as they were the ones who values social contract.

many investor invest in the ETH well this coin is the highest volume in many exchangers as if you notice , ETC is also good but ETH is better because it is the first that released, the price of ETH is high not like the ETC

[nappoleon]

LTC/ETC is a Chinese FAKE coin. ETC has no development behind it and no real usage.
They try to manipulate market, but LTC/ETC will never hold the price and always will pump and dump hardly.


Invest only in those coins that have real development and usage. are in some national project ,covered by banks and industry.

What a outright lie. You must be a banker of some sort.

[nappoleon]

I think investment in ethereum is way more safer than investment in ethereum classic because almost all new ICOs are on ethereum platform and almost none are behind ethereum classic. The growth rates of ETH are also way better than that of ETC apk better returns are expected from ethereum.

Just to get you informed there are 3 development teams behind etc.

1. Etcdevteam (core) - implemented monetary policy (capped etc supply), and working on the emerald wallet and various tools in it
2. Iohk team (under Charles hoskinson) - working on another client written on scalla
3 Gavin wood's team under parity - helped set up/sync etc version chain on parity. (Thanks Gav!)

In fact there are independent contributors, such as dexeran and numerous others

[kamina87]

I will long-term investment with ETH
BTC and ETH will be two strong opponents in the distant future

[dimastegar]

For long-term investment, I think ETH is the best choice. Because the price is quite stable and the developers are very professional.

[RichardThessen]

id say Invest in ETC. The ETC chain is gaining developer support, just recently former CEO of the Ethereum project decided to rejoin and make contributions.

[letsgoman]

At this time, definitely ETC. ETH is is a world of troubles right now, and these ICOs are not doing them a favor either.

[leyton11]

I choose ETC, it is cheaper than ETH, too much rising space for it. You can easily get a 20X or more return from ETC, but you can't from ETH.

Well, I choose ETC too. ETH at now very difficult to want rising up the price with ratio 1000% change in long-term. With ETC , we can see that because ETC still cheapest and very potential after ETH change system to PoS 100%. Buy ETC long-term now is good choice

[marknowen]

ETC is really founded on propaganda rather than technological innovation. It's propped up financially by people who want to undermine Ethereum.

ETH is the real deal!

[siddu67]

if I have money for invest,  I just invest ETH coz its better  then ETC. and I know ETC good coin and stable coin and its growing up this year but I just interested ETH and I like ETH.
thanks

Propaganda is a strong word, I wouldn't call it that way. But I wouldn't blame you as almost everyone thought it was a scam. However ETC was used as a form of revolting against the decision of bailing out investors resulting of rolling back the blockchain and devs being arrogant to assumed that EVERYONE will migrate to the new chain and that the old chain will just die off. Now, if you call that a propaganda, you obviously do not honor a social contract. Plus there's no way the old chain (ETC) can be founded through a technological base considering from that situation. It's not like forked happened and suddenly ETC became robust, scalable and self-sufficient. Innovation is a process, much so with the new chain (ETH). Imo, ETH projects just came through not because of the fancy word 'smart contracts' or something like that but because people knowing now that can they break social contract and just roll back the blockchain and fork off when they make a mess.
