Winner of this year, ETH or BTC?

[Xalata]

It will certainly be Bitcoin even though it has gone down in price. We all agree bitcoin has a strong come back spirit that can make it surge high in price.

[vgk88]

I think that Bitcoin will win, although I think that these are different cryptocurrencies and they are not competitors. I think it will be good if both these cryptocurrencies will develop and grow in price.

Bitcoin is always a safe bet, since many other currencies have their price on a par with this one, besides being the first coin that comes to mind when people talk about cryptos, no matter how enthusiastic they may be about ETH I think bitcoin will end up better off, that doesn't mean that ETH will not end well, only that the value of bitcoin will increase exponentially.

I think that there is no competition that is happening in crypto between eth or btc, they both have their own popularity and they both have the capacity to give huge profit to its investors. We all know that bitcoin is the leader of all coins so there is no need to compare who is the winner.

Although 90% of the tokens are now based on ERC-20, there is no guarantee that this will continue in the long term future. Ethereum can be highly vulnerable against advanced technologies and new altcoins.

I have just started to use nicehash since I want to mine Ethereum and earn Bitcoin.

[Accts4u2]

I would have to go with btc, they have all taken some kind of hit so far but bitcoin has been the one that has been on multiple recoveries while ethereum has been struggling so much in the past couple of weeks. The coin cannot even follow the upward trend of bitcoin which is really bad for it so bitcoin is definitely the winner this year.

I think both will improve their places in the crypto world . My opinion is ETH can't take the place of BTC in a near future because BTC is a coin which have a great user base and lot of holders . time grows the value of them day by day

[Anzal RK]

Of course Bitcoin will never got overtake with other coin.
Bitcoin and Ethereum is a best coin in crypto.
But, Bitcoin is better.
The reason is bitcoin will never get controll by some country or community.

This year was not very successful for the development of the crypto community. And at the moment I'm only thinking about how not to lose my savings.

[Kratos456]

This year is very bad for all Altcoins, including for ETH, so Bitcoin this year will be the winner in this confrontation. Although the situation may change by the end of the year.

[Mixa87]

By the end of the year, I think the etherium will overtake bitcoin) Many people say about this, I believe these statements

[Argoo]

I would not say that this year it is necessary to determine the winner after almost all the year our coins and tokens were in stagnation after the fall of bitcoin. Especially, in my opinion, the winner this year can not be bitcoin, because it is through his fault that the entire crypto-currency market this year could not work properly. In addition, by the end of the year for another four months and notice the time of crypto-alyuta can present us many surprises.

Its a little weird because when today BTC rate is 7k and ETH ended at below $300.BTC as always at top and will be in future.About price, dominance and popularity ETH is not there to compare .

[krenus]

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?

but don't you think it is not an option to compare btc and eth? btc will always have its own place and this place in unique and eth is just the same in alts

Its a little weird because when today BTC rate is 7k and ETH ended at below $300.BTC as always at top and will be in future.About price, dominance and popularity ETH is not there to compare .

Of course cause BTC is more trusted by everyone than other altcoins,the demand dominates more in that direction when compared to this ETH it is too far for him to pursue BTC demand cause it trade better on BTC.

[krystaltoken]

Bitcoin will always father all other coin. Not even Etherium can stop it.

[Ailmand]

Both ethereums and bitcoins will be winners this year in addition to many other altcoins.  I believe this year we will start seeing huge gains starting now.  It's altcoin season and naturally bitcoins will also rise in price. 

I am hoping that your words would turn out to be the truth mate. I say that because I have invested in both those coins, and I pray that anyone of them, or better yet, both of them would make it big in the next following months. However, if you would ask me, I think that Bitcoin is still the clear choice between the two. I am not putting shade on Ethereum, but the price point of Eth right now has really fallen from where it was, and it has really affected its value. Bitcoin, on the other hand, while it's going down, it's showing more positive movements compared to Ethereum recently.

[phurrey]

In my opinion, BTC is the king of crytocurrency. Still now I have not find any winer but at the end of the year we will find the winner and I firmly believe that the winner of this year will be BTC.

[ven7net]

I believe that Bitcoin will definitely remain the leader this year. For his departure from the first place there is no reason, although he has a number of problems. The whole reason for linking Bitcoin to other altcoyins, that is Bitcoin is a manipulative crypto asset, through which large players earn money.

[Barinerro]

I would like to see eth even stronger , but I doubt something after many ICOS have sold their coins, bitcoin very much dominates the market!
