With $3000 to invest, is there any advantages to either, with the expectations/hopes that they both will continue to grow? Just trying to see what others would do, as I plan to let this initial investment sit for 5yrs minimum in a cold wallet.
Thanks ladies and gents!
BTC price is rising this week while ETH relatively stable... So I think BTC is better to invest... But with uncertainty in the future, investing in both will be the safest way I think ~ |

Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

It's hard to say with all the forks happening, bitcoin fork, eth fork.
I actually think both could be great investments.

My vote is both as well. I don't see the down side of holding both at all. The two coins you selected are both strong and will continue to rise. Others maybe not so much. I don't think you can go wrong with either. But, to be safe, just go with some of each.  |

Stick with BTC as that is the best option you have right now since ETH still has many problems and fixes needed before it returns to its previous price at $400 and above.

I would say invest in both, I think you are safe to expect both will continue to rise. Who knows which will rise at a higher rate, so at least if you get a bit of both you will be happy with the results either way. Definitely both are awesome coins with huge investment return potential.

Investment for 5 years requires careful analysis. I choose btc for hold long term investment. Because bitcoin is the best cryptocurrency.

For me both eth and bitcoin though bitcoin is the best investment still I will invest in Eth. Yes holding for a long term with a great value soon. With eth still you can earn profit on holding for a long term. |

With such a rise of BTC/USD rate ETH will go to $400 quite soon. As I understand altcoins rise in fiat price when BTC/USD rate rises because almost all of the altcoins are traded to BTC. |

I think when the ratio was 1:10 like a few months ago was at its peak. It is quite unlikely that Ether can reach 0.5 BTC, with this BTC constantly rising

Well at the moment you can buy more than 17 eth with only one btc, so i think that this thread is a little bit outdated. I dont know why ethereum is freezed at $300, it looks like nobody is trading with it, and a lot of people are dumping their eths, just take a look at any exchange and you will see that there are more sellers than buyers in Eth/btc eth/usd markets.
Obviously that Btc is 100 times more better than eth.

I think that the diversification is most importam. And i prefer to buy both.
Diversification may be important but looking at the trend of things, I will rather go for BTC first and chill out a bit before diversifying. I feel you though, but ethereum has given me few in a short period compared to what bitcoin has given me. Market is unpredictable anyway and table can decide to fall at any side, so in that case I can just under consideration go for few eth. |

If we have to choose one from the both options then definitely second one is more promising in giving benefits and that is why I would also buy bitcoin. Holding it for few weeks can give me hundreds of dollars and that is what I seek in any investment. More profit in less time. So far, bitcoin has been able to do this. Eth is also a good option but it comes at number two with a large gap with number one. |

i think 10 eth is the best compare to 1 btc. actually btc has good demand present but next month eth price going to raise. so you have to prefer to take eth coins. now eth coins has more demand in the market. you have to invest 5 years or 10 years then you getting more profit. so try to learn few important techniques from coins trading then you have to invest. i think it is good idea. so choice is yous friend. |

Three months ago, 10 ETH was made at 1 BTC. I think it is necessary to achieve 8 ETH = 1 BTC.

I can't even begin to comprehend how some people on here devalue Ethereum's protocol even when 40-60% of all alternative tokens are ERC20 or start as ERC20. If anything Satoshi wouldve wanted something like Ethereum to exist in the cryptoworld. BTC and ETH are both symbiotic to one another. Both are great investments and honestly the best route is to diversify your savings 50/50.

Ethereum is the best investment if you can invest for 5 years than minimum 5000$-10000$ increase after 5 years it is my personal feedback.So i prefer only Ethereum not Bitcoin.I am fan of Ethereum.
