Ethereum / Bitcoin Base Pair Choice and Ultimate Best 2018 Coin BTC/ETH?

S Gledhill @gledit


Often there is a daily 'newb' investor confidence yo-yo effect, between ETH and BTC; i.e. people check the last days performance and swap over, based on such limited info/market knowledge/experience/analysis. Ethereum however, with the ERC-20 network/blockchain being the foundation of many altcoins, does this give Ethereum the edge in 2018?

If the majority of ERC-20 altcoins go up, more often than not, so does Ethereum. Thus, helping stabilise Ethereum per-se.
Bitcoin however, is known for it's wild swings in value. It surely also depends heavily on what coin you are potentially trading against?
 - I think that it is generally down to what an individual investor's goals are, to which base they choose.

Thoughts guys? I'm still learning, as are most, so really appreciate a discussion.

Regards all.

I personally use ethereum as the main pair to the all of ERC20 tokens because in all of ethereum DEX and it has used ethereum pair. Bitcoin is really suitable pair if you are trading non-ERC20 token.
More countries and institution interested working on the ethereum platform. But only the time will tell us.

There has been an issue around this, but what I think is that people still trust BTC more than Ethereum, though that is reducing recently. For me the pair most people failed to use most is the USD pair, this give most stability but people want more BTC and Ethereum more than Fiat but people are losing money especially in a bear market

I think that this year we will continue to observe the dominance of bitcoin in the cryptocurrency market, and the ETH will occupy its honorable second place)

it is definitely trading token erc20 and pair eth very profitable ethereum. but bitcoins are experiencing the same thing, because all tokens or coins must have a btc pair.
