[ayurvedicurea2growtaller]

[unamis76]

No... I don't see what ETH brings to the table or has different than Bitcoin that could really cause issues for Bitcoin.

IN BOLD - where ever you heard or read that from, it is a blatant lie. That is like a present affirmation that Ethereum is greater (HOW?), as far as I am concerned, they are incomparable (It is like an insult to Bitcoin presently) although I must say that if Bitcoin isn't careful, it may loose its spot as there are cryptocurrencies now with more and better features than bitcoin, but what I don't know is how they will fair if they experience thesame massive tx like bitcoin. Like I read on a post that the only advantage bitcoin has now is the FIRST MOVERS ADVANTAGE! Future? I have no idea cause I ain't God but I do not agree one bit that Ethereum will surpass Bitcoin and if it does eventually? I leave my decisions till then!

I don't agree because ethereum going downward trend and bitcoin going upward trend ethereum will fail once lots of ICO happening based on erc 20 token proves scam.

Market cap is important but I believe tgat after Segwit2x-UASF debate is done Bitcoin will soar

Yes. Fluctuations are interrelated

[FasTroy]

No, I disagree with what people said about ethereum,Of course, It's not greater than bitcoin, even it is a great crypto. I don't see that one day, ethereum will beat the bitcoin at least in the near future. But when i said that, I don't mean that eth is not good, Personally i really invested in it.

Ethereum, you fail bitcoin!

[cjmoles]

Dunno....but this is what you find on the ethereum blockchain: https://dapps.ethercasts.com/ 

And, this is what you find on the bitcoin blockchain: 04ffff001d0104455468652054696d65732030332f4a616e2f32303039204368616e63656c6c6f7 2206f6e206272696e6b206f66207365636f6e642062

Any more questions?

yes, ethereum is a new fail network before bitcoin ever do. ethereum is greater because it fail faster.
then in the next few years if you ever want to use and have eth wallet you would need a 5tb hard drives and wait about a year to download it.

Ethereum basically is not a payment system and its purpose as a coin is very different from bitcoin. It can be higher than bitcoin in terms of market cap sure but it cannot provide things that bitcoin provides

Well, on ethereum one can perform smart contracts for one thing (so, no escrow service needed). Thus, ethereum also enables one to create decentralized apps which is an improvement in gambling sector. Apart from that, I guess eth transactions are performed a lot faster and are cheaper than bitcoin ones. Neverthless, I don't think eth can beat btc and the reason is that too many people are just too used to bitcoin and they don't want to switch to anything new anymore.

I can say if ethereum just a serious competitor for bitcoin itself and with a lot of project and connect one to other that makes the solid for the community. I can't say ether as a scam coin but the serious competitor for bitcoin itself.

in fact bitcoin is the main currency  and people use it as for payment system while the other coins mostly people use for investment and trading purposes. and therefore i am sure that even etherium may also be using for the same purpose.

I will not consider it as copetator with bitcoin, because there is a big difference between bitcoin and Etherium. Etherium is still  not mature and it will take a lot of time, because Etherium has not built its community and when demand will increase only then we can expect that it can come in competition or any other good coin.

[Spoetnik]

No clue what the fuck you are going on about.
English much?

[Nathland]

I don't think ethereum is going to fail Bitcoin anytime in near future because Bitcoin has a very strong fan base and a lot of people want to invest in bitcoin. Ethereum has not gained that type of popularity till now and it would take years for ethereum to be at that level.

[xbiv2]

ethereum just fall and fall every day

[shifty30]

eth has had some serieus issues lately so i guess that bubble will pop

first of all ethereum is not a currency whereas bitcoin is. and since apples can not fail or replace oranges, ethereum can not fail or replace bitcoin either!

secondly ethereum is a flawed platform with so many different issues. the most recent one was the week long transaction delays that forced all the exchanges to suspend all deposit and withdrawals of ethereum!
