Ethereum a threat to bitcoin

[LickKing]

From Ethereum’s perspective on sales, Ethereum’s technology allows people to do more complex business with shared and decentralized thinking. So I think the future use of Ethereum will exceed Bitcoin!

[adolf512]

There is no doubt that ETH has reached great heights and rightfully takes 2nd place, among all the crypto currency, but we do not know what will happen ahead, and what coin can replace bitcoin. Although I very much doubt that this can happen.

[Suslived]

Nice NBA reference. And i agree with you, Ethereum definitely has the potential to overtake bitcoin.

It's actually no longer a matter of IF, but rather WHEN it will happen. People usually refer to this shift from Bitcoin to Ethereum as an event called "The Flippening." People have even gone as far as to create a flippening tracker. Check it out at flippening.watch

[vatican_shadow]

My opinion of the etherium does not threaten bitcoin, bitcoin will always be number one!

[profit-shooter]

I would not use the word "thread", but in general, this is the truth that Ethereum is a very powerful cryptocurrency and at some stage, it must overcome Bitcoin in price and grow high. I recommend to hold Ethereum for several years and it can really make you rich if you have at least one ethereum in your funds.

[FillJaS]

I think that bitcoin and etherium will share the first place among themselves.
These are different projects and they both need the market.
Bitcoin and the etherium have strong support for the community and horde capital.
Perhaps it will change with time, but today it is so.

[MrZ28s]

Ethereum is a threat to bitcoin? Yes it is. We all know that ethereum was created by a russian programmer on 2013, and it was launched on 2015. After 3 years it is next to bitcoin in terms of popularity and value.

Let me show you some NBA perspective on this, bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrency right? same as LeBron as the king of NBA. But here comes ethereum the prince of cryptocurrency just like Ben Simmons as the prince of the NBA. The prince will dethrone the king on the eastern conference finals same as ethereum that will dethrone bitcoin in the next couple of years. Wether we like it or not the king will reach its limit. Mark my word. Trust the ethereum process!

What's NBA compared to crypto? Really, Ben Simmons is the prince in NBA?
Comparing Ben Simmons to ethereum is garbage. Ethereum is nearing the capitalization of bitcoin and it has real influence on companies and people compared to bitcoin. Simmons is not even a fourth on James level of playing. Basides, Simmons is not even in the top 10 players in the NBA.

[Azzam Khalif]

They are both attacking different parts of the market. So I would disagree.

This is definitely a good observation but I would advise you to keep in mind the world is rarely that black and white.  The sets of functionality each posses are not disjoint! 

They attack different parts of the market AND they attack some of the same parts.  This makes them compete AND not compete. 

Keep in mind dialectics.

to be a threat to Bitcoin would not be as easy as turning a hand. because Bitcoin is a coin with an ever-increasing development. so to be a threat Bitcoin is required to continue to be a coin that is so strong and has a development that is above Bitcoin. while for Ethereum is still under Bitcoin. so it has not been able to become a threat of Bitcoin.

[Greenrace]

bitcoin is a successful investment product with a very high price and alternatively people collect altcoin to fill their wallets so I think both will grow together and have both will be very profitable

[Dark_raven007]

If bitcoin is king, and Ethereum is prince, then in history there are not a few cases that a young and strong captures the throne. It depends on how much the king is wise and experienced.

[happyme1818]

They have different function in crypto so I would disagree. Bitcoin is the original cryptocurrency in the world that revolutionize our financial industry and Ethereum is the first  Smart Contract that produce utility token.

[esakovv]

I think that both bitcoin and etherium will develop well, and both will be successful this year.

[fileo]

I would not mark your words! Remember we are in cryptocurrency and not in NBA. There is no renewal of contract, no water boy, no guards that can prevent the possible craziness of the fans.  crypto is very different approach than NBA.
Different purpose of ethereum and bitcoin so I won't worry. I respect your opinion, so you too should respect. 

[kristensoto]

Bitcoin is king and Ethereum is the queen of the cryptocurrency market, they are always competing against each other. I believe that in the future both will grow strong and have high value. Ethereum has blockchain technology, it is popular throughout the world, many ICO projects are built on the basis of ERC20, every day this altcoin has a large trading volume, showing the potential of Ethereum is excellent. In the future maybe Ethereum will beat Bitcoin. Currently Ethereum is priced at $ 573, if we want to make a profit in the future then this is a good time to buy Ethereum. Maybe this year Ethereum will reach $ 2000 and stabilize around this price.

[ForTheAzerot]

Time will tell, perhaps when ETH can take the top 1 in the world of crypto-currencies. But very much it is hard to believe

[ericmalik]

i disagree with you because both of them are for invest and each of them has a different purpose and way.
 

[efey39]

In the world of ethereum crypto currencies, investors mostly prefer coin. grows day by day. I think the price of ethereum will increase in the future and it will be a threat to bitcoin.

Both are very valuable, yet each plays a different role and are unique on its own identity. I don't think ethereum is a threat because Bitcoin has already a large edge, and ethereum has special offers and provides best opportunities as well. Ethereum is also a most well-established decentralized software that enables Smart Contracts and Distributed Applications to run without any downtime, while bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrency. We should learn to maintain an environment that plays healthy competion, because our real competitors are ourselves, same thing goes with cryptocurrency.

[dongyi17]

Not really..for they are two different coins with unique individual value, bitcoin will always be bitcoin and is the first and foremost bitcoin of all bitcoin, on the other hand ethereum as some may say that has great potential to grow and bloomed and can promised great profit given in a chance it will become big and great.

[panaevewan]

Ethereum is good, of course. But your comparison is a little off. LeBron was a rising star. And bitcoin is considered a Bedouin, who decided to make a discovery to the world. He will be remembered as well as Einstein and Tesla.
