do ethereum compete with bitcoin?

[fathur01]

Ethereum is the closest coin in terms of significance in Bitcoin, but this can change for the worse. To compete with Bitcoin is that Ethereum can't.

[TonixGaming_14]

If there were areas in which they could compete...
These coins are designed for completely different spheres and the level of their influence intersects only at the points of the scale of use of a coin.

[tterrorpipa]

I believed that as of now, there is still no competition. Although right now, ethereum is sitting on the second spot while bitcoin was in the first spot. But when you look and compared their market value, there is a big gaps between the both of them. If ethereum will close the gap near on the marketcap in bitcoin, then we can see some good competition.

[MbakNarti]

I don't see any competition between Ethereum and bitcoin, because what I see is that the price of bitcoin is always the highest compared to other coins, and Ethereum. So, I think bitcoin hasn't found a competitor, because every coin that always moves following the price of bitcoin. This means that bitcoin is still the best and leads in the crypto currency and no one can compete with bitcoin.

[Ivanmikronov]

No, this will never happen, Etherium will not take first place, for the simple reason that issue of Eth pain than bitcoin. And bitcoin is digital gold, its value will increase with age.

[ripple]

Many people think that Ethereum and Bitcoin may be considered competitors. Actually, Ethereum can not compete with bitcoin, with the king's No. 1 position. You can see from distance price comparison and market volume. and the value of Bitcoin

[ethereumhunter]

Ethereum is not competing with bitcoin because it's too hard to compete with the leader of the cryptocurrency and besides that, I think ethereum compete with the other expensive coin. Perhaps, ethereum compete with bitcoin cash because if we compare the price between bitcoin cash, ethereum is behind on that coin and it's hard to increase the price to beat the bitcoin cash right now.

[Henri Cartier]

Bitcoin and Ethereum are the market leaders of cryptocurrency in their own specific way.

Bitcoin is still the top investment choice with Bitcoin’s first-in advantage, name recognition, developed payment systems. With Ethereum’s much faster transaction speeds, higher data handling feature, larger currency float and widespread corporate adoption, ETH have its own appeal.

Bitcoin is currently valued at $6357.08 with a market capitalization of $109,335,891,192, while Ethereum is currently valued at $361.04, with a market capitalization of $36,542,706,260.

The live price and the live exchange price of BTC and ETH can be tracked using btc to eth chart to stay updated on the market trends to get the most out of it.

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

and to this day it has not happened. bitcoin is too strong rivaled by all the crypto that has been traded, I agree if there are some altcoins that can compete so the market will become more independent without being tied to bitcoin again.

[Pejoh Asu]

Ethereum is the most appropriate coin to compete with bitcoin, support from hundreds of tokens that will help ethereum can defeat bitcoin and later become number # 1.

[voltesbit777]

it can beat bitcoin, bitcoin has market gone down,because buyers are buying less bitcoin, they are checking other bitcoins, which is good and highest price.

Your reason was too irrational, its not because the price value dumped, it doesn't mean will continuously decrease of course not!
I'm not against with Ethereum, but in terms of stability and popularity of Bitcoin it will always prevails among the cryptocurrencies, therefore,
its will always on top even in any exchange platform for sure.

[elenka n]

It seems to me that Bitcoin is unlikely to ever give primacy to someone, because serious investors are behind it!

[chairmanMao]

This is crazy fantasy. Usually such people have severe fantasies. It is important to know how Bitcoin means to the cryptocurrency market. Coins that are currently able to surpass Bitcoin have not yet appeared. Maybe it won't happen in the next decade.

[Thefrolly]

There is no way that ethereum can be able to compete with bitcoin, ethereum might be the second best coin in the market but even at that the coin is still far behind bitcoin and for good reason too. Bitcoin is the best and most promising coin in the market, there is no competing with that, it is the first coin to ever come out and it basically runs the entire market

[Slark]

Ethereum will not be able to overtake Bitcoin for a long time. I think the next two years Bitcoin is definitely not something to fear. What awaits Ethereum for the next two years is not clear at all.

[zcashplan]

Please stop your fantasies, Ethereum is the helper of Bitcoin, it can't surpass Bitcoin. Bitcoin represents the entire cryptocurrency market, and its actions affect all altcoin prices. Ethereum has lost many supporters now.

Huh? No. One coin will never replace another. Coins may disappear, coins may appear, but all coins take their own places. And nobody replaces Bitcoin, even if it's a top altcoin.

Ethereum seeks to replace the position of the Bitcoin. This is demonstrated by the large number of the Ethereum development done to get at much more expensive again to exceed the price of the Bitcoin itself. so the Bitcoin compete with Ethereum and vice versa.

I can't even dream of this possibility of Ethereum beating Bitcoin at anytime, not even in 100 years. I am very sure of the solidity of Bitcoin and its forever growth. I can't really say same for Ethereum.

[blockchain-man]

In my opinion, ETH is the electronic currency that closely follows BTC. But to replace BTC is not possible. ETH will grow beside BTC. BTC is the first currency, the origin of electronic money development. The value of BTC will increase over time.

If etherium do really compete with bitcoin , then why etherium's  value is still small and most of the times not moving ?  All cryptos are not competing to each other because all of them are equally built .  the only difference is their name and price but all of their usage are the same , we can use them all for buying and as well as for investing/trading .

The only one that is in competition are ico's because ico's is a kind of business on which they need to attract a lot of costumers or investors so that their project can have a suffcient budget for development .
