Can ethereum be beat Bitcoin

[liuka]

No way. Bitcoin is still the best of coins and no altcoins can beat it in the future
ethereum is the top 2 only and it is impossible eth can replace value of bitcoin.

[denny27]

For its price alone it still follows the bitcoin price movement, it seems even a bit slower than bitcoin, how can it shift bitcoin, I think for the next it will still be difficult to shift it until its popularity exceeds of bitcoin.

Ethereum is mooning incredibly with stability, But bitcoin still a volatile coin. Lots of crypto expert telling that 2018 Will be for Ethereum. So, what do you think, Can Ethereum beat Bitcoin?

I think no, at least not this year. There are much more mining enterprises which mine bitcoin, a lot of money invested in bitcoin mining, much more than in other cryptocurrencies

yes, ETH will never be able to overcome Bitcoin. Although bitcoin technology is classic, it has many advantages over ETH. BTC is the first electronic currency of cryptocurrency, bitcoin is also a lot of users in the transaction or purchase. Volume of bitcoin usually reaches $ 9 billion a day. It's a huge number and it shows a lot of billionaires trust bitcoin more than ETH.

in my opinion there will always be a possibility that ethereum can beat bitcoin, The reason for saying this is that over 90% of crypto investors are looking for profitability, stability, less transaction costs, quick confirmation etc.

Yes, there are now many people predicting ETH can beat bitcoin, I suppose this can not happen because the bitcoin value is 10 times higher than the ETH, although ETH has a very good foundation and time. Recently ETH prices have gone down a lot, it depends on the price of bitcoin. I believe Bitcoin is going to be the leader in the future and Ethereum can not beat Bitcoin.

Let's question this way, Can ETH be the next bitcoin? There are very less possibility for any coin to take over bitcoin as its too far with its marketcap and its values. There are possibility to be the next coin after bitcoin. We need look at the market. We have a coin silently coming up in the market. That's MAKER.  We haven't bitcoin cash as well. Maker and Bit oincash are behind bitcoin. Bitcoin if far ahead.  Let ETH take over BCH and Maker.

Everything can happen in the cryptocurrency market, we can hardly predict what will happen. However, I believe Ethereum will be hard-pressed to beat Bitcoin because Bitcoin is still very strong, very potential, and still holds the No. 1 position in the cryptocurrency market until now. This is a good opportunity for us to buy more bitcoin because the bitcoin price is very low, only $ 6900. I believe that bitcoin will bring us a lot of profit in the future.

But eth and btc is different of the total supply. I am not sure ETH can beat bitcoin in the future
bitcoin is the mother of crypto and no altcoins can beat it.

Sorry For bad English. I am trying to improve it.

Thank You, everyone.

I think it is very difficult to beat ethereum bitcoin. because bitcoin is much more popular than ethereal and bitcoin systems are much stronger than bitcoin. and I think people are more interested in bitcoin.

[crypto-bit]

I don't think so that the etherium will conquer the pride of bitcoin.If you look at the price of this to cryptocurrencies there is a huge gap between them and yet bitcoin still on the top for it dominance with other coins.Maybe etherium will compete for its fast confirmation against bitcoin confirmation but the mass adaption is still on bitcoin.I would say that I like etherium rather than bitcoin, It pretty much faster when sending the coin to the other.

It's difficult to answer this question.bitcoin and ethereum are unique in their functionality.

Bitcoin is not governed by anyone and only open community is responsible to scale thier functionality,due to segwit hard fork Bitcoin also divided in 2 group .core and BTC.Similar thing happened with Ethereum and ethereum classic.

This forks certainly creates an issue amongst the community and investers .

However ETHEREUM has strong leadership of vitalik buterin and thier vision is clear where Ethereum should go whereas Bitcoin is just currency which store and transfer only values no contracts associated.

Definitely Ethereum has lot of scope for growth due to strong leadership whereas Bitcoin may grow potentially but it's future is uncertain as long as someone owns it.

Ethereum is the queen of altcoins but Bitcoin is the king and mother of all crypto. Bitcoin potential, market cap and familiarity is far greater than Ethereum and the price also is far higher than Ethereum. I wonder how Ethereum will beat Bitcoin since Ethereum is still a baby in crypto market and Bitcoin is a matured mother of the crypto market.

[Question123]

I believe the coin of the ethereum will become next bitcoin and for sure most of us believe also too. Maybe after few years we will see the price of the ethereum become very high while the price of the bitcoin decreasing. But even that our prediction about bitcoin and ethereum we don't know what really happen. Maybe after few years the price of this coin become very low so better to invest only your extra money.

[Sarisang]

with the ethereum position as it currently is very unlikely to catch the value of bitcoin is very high. but the ethereum nonetheless become the hope of many people for a very large coin and has a great future and in a few years, it may be time for the ethereum for could be the best.

[emmybd]

Well, I don't know what would happen in three or four years time, but Ethereum is not going to beat bitcoin in near future. It is also true that Ethereum is a very promising project and it has got investors support. At present, it is far behind than bitcoin.

[AVAMONEY]

Still far away for it. I will not surprise if it wouldn't never happen, because we still need Bitcoin at strong position to support crypto market. It's interesting to see that Ethereum trading volume keeps closer to Bitcoin, but it will be hard to beat it, so let it be.

[GreatBug]

I won't be suprised if that will happen but definitely not now, i think that situation can occure but in next years, than we can see some changes on first place.

[MobaAnalog]

I think it's hard, because Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency 

[crazylikeafox]

It’s not totally impossible, but it will not be easy for ethereum to beat bit bitcoin. Bitcoin still proves the it is the best in crypto world, it won’t let anyone get the best of it easily. Even though ethereum is a bit far from bitcoin in terms of profitabilty, still, ethereum remains to be the best competitor of bitcoin. One of the factors is that ethereum is a stable coin that it can easily catch up to bitcoin. But we can never say when can eth overtake bitcoin, because bitcoin still remains to be the king.
