Cardano knocks off BTC's Crown

[tdot]

I would think it is highly unlikely given that Bitcoin is now synonymous with crypto and that currently, most exchanges use BTC as a gateway to other alts. ETH is more likely...

January 2017 price of Ethereum = $7.98 USD, am just saying, if and when a crypto becomes usable and adopted by the masses all depends on the opportunity that avails itself. Am pretty sure apart for token contribution, people didn't think Ethereum could also be used as a store of value. most people preferred Bitcoin. But as at the time when the bitcoin had high transaction fees, people turned to the likes of LTC, ETH and even NEO... - opportunity.


So if Ethereum doesn't step up, Cardano does possesses the ability to scale, YOU JUST WAIT and see. Crypto has a funny way of surprising us.

Here's a reddit comment from one of the fans of the project when he heard that Genesis Vision will be using Cardano as payment:

"That's great news for both projects. ADA adoption in the GVT platform will open up ADA users to the perks of passive income from fund management tokens within the platform, and GVT will benefit from the additional traffic. It's great to watch the Space grow organically as projects build with one another."

And this is just the beginning.

NB: When comparing cryptos, its important to note that the timeline for each development cannot be the same as so much can differ especially when they are done at intervals.

I think as people continue to understand the divide between protocol and currency layouts, the finer they appreciate blockchain. Now that one thing common to both ETH and ADA, however, IMO i think what Cardana proposes is several steps ahead of what ethereum currently is.

In this light we should begin to see soon what Cardano Tech is really all about, as soon as the next milestone on the roadmap is achieved.

[Mhz_evadah]

Cardano will be one of the biggest. There is already an ICO running named SP8DE  (https://sp8de.com/) based on the Cardano blockchain.
If you experienced the horrible Ethereum wallets (ao Mist, Metatask, MEW) which are the most user-unfriendly I ever encountered together with an incomprehensive gas system that makes every transfer a headache, it is not difficult to see the easy-to-use Cardano can become a major player.

So why do people keep saying Cardano has no product yet when clearly SP8DE is one of its product.

I’m biased on bitcoin as I’m a member of Bitcointalk and a holder.. So it won’t take the position as the number one and it’s crown as the top coin in cryptocurrency.. But I admit that with this kind of potential coin it deserve on the second spot and has the power to dethrone ethereum and replace it in due time.. But it won’t be happening this year or even a couple more year as eth is used in many projects as an investment coin..

I agree, I read an article about how ADA is a threat to ETH. We may well be seeing some scalable issues with Ethereum, although they have plans underway to fix that, but I think once Cardano touches down on its next milestone (Shelley -  Expected Q2 2018), it would be a game changer in crypto-world.

The advantage they have over Eth is their Peer-review system, and a vast resource of researchers; no wonder they have so much to accomplish in a short period of time.

Not going to happen, to bank on this would be one of the most optimistic things I've seen in trading.
Nothing will overtake BTC this year, and if and when the time comes it won't be ADA.

[ruslangitelman223]

Hi everyone, just a curious question. Can Cardano surpass BTC & ETH?
I know that it is currently undervalued - or so I think; But with ADA's solidity and scalability prospect is it ever going to happen?

Your thoughts please... Need to make a long term investment decision on this.

And what about the throne, too, is an underestimated coin. Neither in the next bitcoin it will be possible to kill, especially to coins less than 1 dollar. It's just complacency that I bought this coin for good reason.

[MIGHTYTH0TH]

I tend to think that BTC is and always will be the pin to measure other crypto's - but that said, ADA had the potential to be a runner up of sorts if they play their cards right and keep on delivering the value.

[honorato]

Yes  Agree Cardano is good...
Wait ...Cappasity  is coming ..

Cardano doesn't even have product at all. It is too early to talk about. And I would prefer bitcoin or ethereum any day over cardano. I ve read many people saying cardano is somewhat shady when it was first talked on bct.

Although there is no product, but the coin is very promising, you will see how much it will cost after one year! 

[augusto41]

Cardano rules! I have and now is on top 5. I will keep my investment in int for next few months

[qazgroup]

Cardano is a great project but i do not think it can take the place or price of the giants, may be we can say this if something terrible happens with the giants and they are replaced by new one's like cardano.

[Tavarez]

not near to knock btc crown but still many positives within cardano. The platform is Haskell Coded with an Ouroborus Algorithm. the proof type is/will be proof of stake after Shelly project is complete. Team Cardano is the most technologically advanced team on the planet in my honest opinion.

The product from what? Can you tell where can i use my cardano to get utility usage from my token? at least i can play the game with it. It's just another ico and it's not a product. Can you tell me about what was the definition of product

Everyone has their opinion about this coin or that coin. But the superior ideology comes from the one you obtain through due diligence. After going through their whitepaper and their roadmap, am somewhat convinced that they will provide solidity. Besides, except Bitcoin and Ethereum are ready to scale this very moment, each delay is crucial to further accessibility. Leaving more room for rookie blockchain products like NEO, NEM, or even Cardano think of replacing their legacy.

Oh come on... am ethereum's and bitcoin's number 1 fan... well was for bitcoin before ethereum came up. And besides, we all are not just fanatics we are after solidity and proof of work and 'state'. Every ICO and future projects ought to know that blockchain isn't just about fundraising to produce shit coins but creative real-world solutions and to real-world problems.

This thread was created to critically analyze the potential of Cardano vs. bitcoin, find out if Ethereum will sit on the sidelines - as a lesson to future projects too.

Developers at BTC are also the very best.

That's an obsolete legend. They are the most, but not the best. If i need to specify, where's the best developers, i pick the ethereum fundation.

[ahoenk]

No my friend ico coin will mever surpass btc. Bitcoin has a natural growth and we got it from mining and i dont think any ico coin out there will surpasses bitcoin. Bitcoin is king of crypto and will be always king. The pioneer of thia industry even if the bitcoin tech is obsolete but many people will think about bitcoin if they talked about cryptocurrencies.

And that is actually a fact. And let nobody forget that Ethereum is an ICO coin. So whatever people say about Ethereum building and such development and marketing done. Hiring great developers, going to conferences and promoting the platform, remember that they started by raising millions, got hacked, reversed the blockchain and here there are today. Cardano is no different. Nobody worked on it for free, all the ICO money is the one building the hype and getting the community interested.

Bitcoin's crown is there and cannot be taken away, not by price not by position in market, not anything.
