Ethereum vs Bitcoin as goal of investments

[Dudeperfect]

Is a good option for holding ICO and also to entering the smart contracts but the ideology is going to expand further and I am also expecting it to sync with artificial intelligence and internet of things in the future so we will be able to use eth smart contracts for paying the parking ticket bill or the mobile bill without actually doing it every time. Smart contracts can do that for us as ETH has that capability to handle such kind of transactions.

Many people out there don´t believe that Ethereum can be a long term hodling, they simply use it participate in ICOs, sell and buy bitcoin again with the profit. Do you think that may change this year and ethereum can be seen as the choice to hodl?

I chose both, bitcoin is a good investment to make a profit and it is proven in 2017. Ethereum is a second choice alternative and also has good potential for investment, as its value is also increasing.

Bitcoin is the mother of all crypto and Ethereum is the mother of all altcoins, bot have excellent potential in terms of growth, market cap and price rise. Investing in both or either of the one depends on the person and the amount they have to invest, suggest to invest in both to have good balancing in profit. However both will reap good profit and never let you down.

[Tylerzkie]

in me both of them are good coin they are so much profitable to gained,. but they not the same action. what i mean is like bitcoin many peoples they using in this coin for transaction to make real money. even ethereum they use also but they use in more token in ico and they cant change in real money direct but both are same pretty much useful.

[plaintiff77]

Both are the same good for long term investment.Bitcoin right now has drop down but we already aware of that since the value of it is volatile however ethereum right now so far has a potential and it keeps on increasing so both of them are really good for long term investment.

This two is a great technology that can lead us in a brighter future, better to hold more bitcoin and eth because it will explode this year. No matter what the economist says about cryptocurrency, I still believe it will continue to soar higher. People will adopt this and bitcoin will remain on top followed by eth and altcoins.

Now everyone thinks that altcoins are only for short-term operations, but I'm sure that some altcoins even the same ether can serve to retain and choose the best moment. So it all depends on the person and not on the coin.

....

The reason ethereum may not be considered HODL material, could be due to its variable supply. We all know bitcoin's "supply" is limited to 21 million coins. Ethereum has no limits on supply, the number of ETH coins issued, which could over the long term result in it being printed ad infinitum, similar to fiat currencies of this day and age.

Its a philosophical and economics armchair debate as to whether ethereum or currencies which can be printed without limit will ever have a real advantage over gold, bitcoin or things defined in terms of having limited supply.

If ethereum is well managed over a period of decades, people may buy into its "trust" based system. It all depends on ethereum's stability and reliability over time. What its reputation is and what people are willing to pay for it.

While it is true, there are many coments from Vitalik and other authority bearing sources that indicate that the issuance rate of Ethereum is going to be severely diminished in proportion to the demand when PoS comes into action.

Also, in theory, there is nothing preventing Bitcoin mining farms to decide to fork and make bitcoin supply non-limited. Please, correct me if I am wrong, but that is technically and theoretically feasible.

Lastly, perpetual deflation is negative for a coin since it becomes unusable for real life transactions as people rather keep it than use it.

[gigusico]

Both options are good, now even the etherium looks not bad as a long-term investment for me personally considered this only in short-term periods

Yes because in ethereum there is less than transactions compared to bitcoins, we also know that bitcoin today is not that good price and in waiting to confirm each transactions will take a time right. so many ico's are using ethereum but i still want to choose btc to hold it has more potential.

Ethereum is one of the coins that I hold for long term because it is one of the coins that are actually used and not just for speculation purposes. It is one of the coins that is stable and keep on growing because there is a demand for it even though its price is far from bitcoin. I believe there are many people who are holding it for long term because it is useful and there are many exchanges that use it as base coin beside bitcoin and their own coin so it is just wise to hold the coin for long term purposes because we can see that its creator is very active as well. Innovations keep coming in so there is a high chance for it to be more valuable in the future.

Both ethereum and bitcoin because bitcoin is the great digital currency and the king here in crypto world but etherum in the queen of crypto its  because ethereum is the beginning of many token here so, both are getting strong because of their use in the world of digital currency so, its better to hold ethereum in our wallet for the future of us, and also hunt and hold a big amount of bitcoin to have good income in the future because bitcoin price will rise in every years.

Not only that come to think off that bitcoin and Etherium is the first and 2nd ranking on marketcap which we can really presume that these coins do really have the potential to give potential profits on near future.I dont see any competition among these 2 coins.

To buy and sell coin, such as bitcoin is used, so nowadays it is possible to buy and sell various coin with ethereum. Ethereum may certainly be a long-term hodling.Because the price of ethereum has gained a lot in recent months. The demand of ethereum is getting increase day by day. I've been holding 30 ethereum for a long term.

How did these people say that Ethereum is not good for long term when in fact it become secondary and lead altcoins for many years? They should think that Ethereum have reach this far because people have already build a tradition of trust that Ethereum is a promising investment too but still Bitcoin will always be the best choice to pour our investments because bitcoin is the most trusted than any altcoins combine.

[mahilchii]

Each crypto has it's own merits and demerits, bitcoin and ethereum are potential crypto and people buy both as per their fiat available with them. If someone has more fiat, then they will buy bitcoin, if someone has avaerage fiat, then they will buy ethereum I think. Both coins grow proportionately but as per transaction fees in considered, ethereum is the best since the fees is low compared to bitcoin.

Both are a good option and should exists in your portfolio at any given time. Nowdays cypto currency is considered as the top priority when any one wants to make investment because of the phenomenal returns given by btc last year. Also some of the altcoins are pretty good and should form your part of portfolio.

[kevin go]

Digital currencies are future of world economy. Along with bitcoin some altcoins are also doing good progress. Ethereum is one of the best long term investment tools. Bitcoin is the best return giving currency, bitcoin is showing this from last two and more years.  Bitcoin`s increased price and transaction charges compelling bitcoin investors to search an alternative. For them ethereum is the best substitute currently available.

[oegarod]

At present bitcoin has been facing lots and lots of issues from governments around the globe. Ethereum till date haven't faced serious issues from governments. All that it has faced is the network congestion, freezing of funds, stealing of large volumes. So, for long term investment ethereum to can be considered similar to bitcoin.

[hugeblack]

Both of them good.
Bitcoin: easy cashout, can be used to buy ant altcoins, good investment, price always rise, can earn well from investment and Promising future (price will go to the moon).
Ethereum: low fee, POS, can be used with tokens, good investment, better than bitcoin (short-term holding) and good for newbie investing.
it’s better to start investing using Ethereum (free tokens from airdrop and easy cutoff losing) after that you can use bitcoin
