Can ETH reach BTC value ?

[Ozero]

Ethereum is too late in the price of bitcoin and such a gap can only increase, given that this year it is forecasted a further increase in the bitcoin rate to about $ 40,000. However, as we can see, ethereum in recent days is taking the record behind the record, having managed to rise significantly in price from about 300 dollars until recently to 1342 dollars, according to CoinMarketCap, today. This is a very significant rise, but it is not enough to get ahead of the price of bitcoin.

Not seeing that in the near future as Ethereum is different in use case than Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is for peer to peer payments while Ethereum is being used to run DApps in the network.

Yes of course, btc started from somewhere and today is something, with time ETH will reach BTC value.

I think that can,but not this year , if you look at the distance in a few years, then it is quite real that this can happen

[Ging]

ether is without a doubt a very strong altcoin in the market and each year it is gaining more and more traction thanks to it smart contracts and strong blockchaine. and i am proud of what it has accomplished in recent days.

Ethereum can reach and overtake Bitcoin marketcap, and most likely will do it, but the price won't rise more than $6000 during this year. I excpect ETH to reach 3000-5000k till the end of the year. Especially the main growth will occur before the Serenety hardfork, but the date is not yet announced.

Just wondering if ETH can

A lot of us wonder about the same thing. Well, I am actually hoping.
Because I'm into Ethereum than Bitcoin. Though both are incomparable because they have their unique qualities, still Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency, it is very hard to tell. I'm sure that in time if it ETH is developed more maybe, it is possible.

ETH now has more chances to go to third place in volumes than to replace bitcoin. Even though the price of ETH is growing, it is very difficult to use this coin. Yesterday I sent a transaction with 98 gwei - this is a high commission for such a coin.

I don't think that can be possible in the short term.

Ethereum is having an incredible ascending thanks to the viability of its platform and Bitcoin still keep its status for store value.

[Goodween]

I hope it can, but probably not in the neariest time. I think it can happen in two years. I change all my btc in eth not so long ago.

[Partizanai]

only time will tell if ETH can reach the value of BTC, personally i dont think that i can because of difference in coin cap, BTC is fixed at 21mil, ETH is not

[khendjer]

It can reach BTC value some day if more and more use cases of Ethereum like ICOs, cryptogames and etc will be implemented in the future while Bitcoin will stay slow developed one purpose coin. But that's very unlikely.

[NLO]

functionally ETH is better bitcoin, but in the price he will catch up bitcoin not soon

[yugyug]

Bitcoin is the benchmark of all cryptocurrencies and ethereum is the mother of all smart-contracts. both coins have different purpose. Bitcoin is the coin for the masses while Ethereum aside from its coin, many ICOs are emrbracing the ethereum model adaptability like smart-contracts for easy token creations but ethereum can not be equaled in terms of value against bitcoin.

I think it's imposible to think at that level for now because let's be honest and face the true , it would require a lot of capital to get bitcoin price per 1 ethereum. it's nice to dream about it but maybe eth can go to 10k when bitcoin is already over 50k.

Exactly this is what I think, they will never be 1=1.

Bitcoin is the King and will always be.  Ethereum is sitting fine in the Queens seat.  The Queen would get her head cut off if she ever attempts to dethrone the King.  Hahaha!

[vit05]

  Only if BTC fails. Ethereum needs to be seen as a Hight risk investment in a new technology that nobody knows it could work. ETH will never be seen as a store of value and could in the middle term stop to be seen as a currency.
 Smart contracts are revolutionary and when Casper start to work will be amazing. But until there, a lot of things could happen.

[psousal]

I think yes... with time ETH will reach BTC value.
