It depends on how do you compare them and what do you want to use them for. Ethereum is better than Bitcoin and Bitcoin is better than Ethereum at the same time. They’re not competitors. They coexist and solve different types of problems.

Bitcoin is really far more recognizable in the world. Ethereum is less known and younger. Ethereum uses “move fast and break things” motto, it learned from Bitcoin and fixed a couple of issues in it’s design and the community is smaller and therefore has more developers than speculators.

Bitcoin is a currency used for purchasing goods and services, as well as storing value (much like how we currently use gold), it is a new currency created to compete against the gold standard and fiat currencies. But Ethereum is a token used for making Apps (decentralized apps) on the Ethereum blockchain, it's a token capable of facilitating Smart Contracts (For example: a lawyer’s contract, an exchange of ownership of property, and voting).

I don't really see them as competing with eachother, they're both different. Would be good if the ETH trading pairs got more volume though.

Bitcoin itself is two things: it’s a digital currency known bitcoin (lowercase, also referred to as BTC) and Bitcoin is a technology (also known more generally as blockchain). Both are called the same thing which admittedly can be confusing for newbies. Bitcoin = The name of the Bitcoin network bitcoin = The currency (or BTC). With Ethereum it’s similar, but slightly different: the token is called ether (or ETH) and the network is Ethereum. Ethereum = The Ethereum network, ether = The token (of ETH).

I've heard predictions about Ethereum will beta bitcoin several times for last two years and every time it wont happend. Bitcoin too strong now in comparison with ethereum. imho probably some of top 3-5 will replace ethereum in nest several years.

Many altcoin always competing with bitcoin as of today though prices are declining. Ethereum has more users and also with bitcoin but I can't see ethereum beat bitcoin. For the meantime bitcoin is the top crypto of all time and I believe it will remain as top crypto.

In fact it is like that, Etherum with bitcoin. actually ethereum is very superior, look at tokens and coins nowadays, lots of which use ethereum platform. we just need to wait for the new breakthrough of bitcoin so that bitcoin can succeed again. currently bitcoin is superior because bitcoin is a coin that introduces Cryptocurrency to the whole world.

as if it is in the second place and nearer to the bitcoin then compare to other coins, maybe in future it may beat bitcoin
Of course not, I think Ethereum is a close relative of BTC. They are in the same world, all right but not always. ETH has created its own platform in recent years, but Bitcoin remains unique and special. The Ethereum market is bigger than Bitcoin but as I said BTC is something unique and not easily shifted from the top.

ethereum does not compete with bitcoin, it's just that ethereum has become a platform that is often compared to bticoin, because the ethereum platform now supports a lot of ico. so I think if ethereum has not been able to compete with bitcoin it's just a large number of users for ethereum or bitcoin.

Why compare what is completely different in its structure. They cannot compete directly with each other.

If we compare the potential and not the current costs, then ethereum will probably be a bitcoin heavy competitor. One other way to become a bitcoin competitor is if etherium is able to develop the latest technologies in an effort to win the trust of potential investors.

enough computing power and enough time anything can be calculated. With Bitcoin, there is not this form of flexibility Ethereum at the same time they’re not competitors wondering whether it could overtake Bitcoin as the dominant cryptocurrency !!

Ethereum prices, the technology used by global banks in their blockchain trials are priced very tightly with bitcoins. In the fields that the price of Ethereum will continue to rise due to the market demand is so strong. Ether, the currency that represents Ethereum in the cryptocurrency market, has rocketed 40 percent in 24-hours and 100 percent in the last week. Currently sitting at 0.0126 a Bitcoin ($ 4.78). Commonwealth Bank of Australia, HSBC, UBS and Credit Suisse are part of an 11-member group called R3 and explore how blockchain technology can enable them to safely transfer money and other assets over the internet, safely and very quickly. And maybe this will be an alternative to Cryptocoin that will be popular like its bitcoin, and if it is going to be an exciting competition because the new coin will have a positive impact on technological developments in the world in digital currency.

Maybe, but maybe it will take a long time. Bitcoin is the main choice coin in crypto and many of investors choose bitcoin as an investment, and it will make it difficult for ethereum to beat bitcoin.

It's impossible, forever everyone knows the right choice is Bitcoin, and will always keep the first one, whereas ethereum will be second. In the current scenario, Bitcoin becomes a price determiner, as bitcoin prices rise so Ethereum automatically also raises prices, but when Bitcoin falls, Ethereum also drops in the market. That's great bitcoin.

it could happen the price of ETH can pass BTC. although currently, the difference in price of ETH and BTC is still very far enthusiasts from ETH is not inferior to BTC. we all know that ETH is one of the most successful coins born from ICO so that's why ETH is often juxtaposed with BTC

this two are having some good relation to be and not by competing on how is the situation of the other side , people look to be that they are competing but this is not try to look behind this two currency and not just look for its price as well.

Ethereum is next to bitcoin and may be seen as a strong rival to bitcoin. However, Ethereum has its own technology different from that of bitcoin. Only time will tell the future of Ethereum and bitcoin in terms of competition.

I have also always thought that the next after bitcoin is ethereum. This is also very obvious, owing to the achievements made so far by ethereum. Most times, if investors do not invest in bitcoin, they will invest in ethereum. Ethereum is a good competitor of bitcoin.
