Winner of this year, ETH or BTC?

[FLRagnar]

I expect very good growth from bitcoin and eth this year, but still I'm hanging out more to strengthening bitcoin's leadership, the eth will remain on the second place and the gap will grow.

BTC will win, sure. BTC will remain number 1 this year and not be replaced, because BTC is always the forerunner of cryptocurrency, the market leader. If ETH want to beat BTC, need very long time, not this year. For me, BTC will always be a winner.

Hello everyone!

Recently, I was thinkig. Is there really any reason for the BTC to be the market leader? The only thing that is giving the value to BTC is pretty much the fact, that it was the first crypto currency. It is the grandfather of all cryptos. But we know it has its flaws... It was never designed for broad usage, it has scaling issues and so on.

On the other hand, we were given ETH. The Crypto Kitties or w/e the awesome internet meme ETH appliction is called showed us, that ETH network has issues with high amounts of usage. BUT, 90% of all altcoins are based on the ERC-20 standard, brought to us by ETH. The smart contracts using the Solidity are extremly good piece of technolgy.

So my question is. Do you think, that BTC will keep its leadership, or will ETH be the winner of this year and surpass its ancestor?

With time, the ETH will fall into oblivion. But you forgot about other top altcoys. There is a ripple, there is a manea there is a light coin. To each his own. And it's good that there is such a variety of options. BUT as long as the bulk of the people buying makes money for the fiat currencies

In my opinion, the value of Bitcoin is very attractive to many communities and enthusiasm even for investors, Bitcoin will lead. Even though Ethereum has good technology, it's just one of the best things that have been done so far. But it still can't go beyond Bitcoin.

Bitcoin will win for sure. In my opinion, Bitcoin will remain the leader. BTC is the founding father and Eth hardly could beat it.

Currently, Ethereum is ranked second in the cryptocurrency ranking behind Bitcoin, a coin that has many applications and has great potential for growth in the future. Ethereum trading market is also very exciting worldwide. I think this year's winner will be ETH

[Summation]

The entire cryptocurrency will only win bitcoin in the next 10-20 years. Ethereum will depreciate to a few dollars in the next 1-2. Of course this is my personal opinion.

[cepot9]

it looks like they will both lead bitcoin and ethereum, because now both of them have fallen and ethereum doesn't show any movement. maybe after bitcoin falls and ethereum increases will also move up

[Qegarma]

Every other coin apart from bitcoin and etherium will face huge blocks and problems because of their project and team , but the above 2 coins will be successful for ever.

I hope that at this year investors of bitcoin and ethereum will get a good profit. Both coins have good prospects for price growth. But we need to wait until end of year.

[AliciaAndrews12]

I think there will be no coin to win. There are a lot of alt under the influence of BTC, including ETH too. But one thing I hope is that, through this fluctuation, early next year will be a flourishing year for both BTC and ETH.

I think that from a technological point of view, Ethereum is much ahead of bitcoin. But in popularity, he has not yet outstripped him.

Of course BTC has some issues with the transaction speed and scale, but the technology is constantly growing... And looking at the price charts of BTC and ETH, I would say that BTC is probably a winner for today.

[ZonaCrypto]

I think Bitcoin will retain its leadership over Ethereum. At least this year. The ancestor is still strong, Bitcoin will be the leader.

[BertoloyBTC]

Ethereum will have a long way to go ,before it can take over bitcoin, so for this year the bitcoin still the winner or leader over ethereum coin in the coin market cap.

[bedrosovic35]

There's nothing to discuss ! Bitcoin 6000 and Ethereum 260 ! Here is the message and the response )

[Barbaralehoa]

I think BTC, because the trust of users in BTC is very strong. It will be a strong e-currency and will continue to develop as soon as the market drops

[Agrabah]

Bitcoin leader is clear to everyone. But this year the race for the victory of ether and bitcoin I would have equalized

[Maks.fadeev1978]

Now we all know that BTC is the most stable coin om market. ETH lost a lot of their capitalization and BTC dominance more than 53% . This is first time since middle of the 2017 year. We can say 2018 this is BTC year cause altcoins lost most of their capitalization from 5 to 90%. This is awful year for alt and ETH is not exception.

[Alex_He]

I think Bitcoin is still a winner because it is still a coin that people like, even though the Ethereum Network is currently making more transactions at a higher speed than bitcoin, 99% of alternative coins are based on the Ethereum network, judging from the use of course ethereum is far better than bitcoin, but now it's too early to talk about winners, because launching a new network means there will be more opportunities and situations can change at any time.
