ETH or XRP

[muratsink]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

It will not and never, that was a kind of joke and that will never happen for sure dude. As you can see that about how terrible ripple as a centralized crypto that a lot of premined token goes to the dev.
That will never be the sale as BTC and ripple has not chance but ether can do that for sure.

I think ETH in the future will replace BTC and become the number one crypto in the market. But now the price of this market is very low, and I think the price of ETH will go up more than $1,000 in the year 2020 if the cryptocurrency market recover.

[jossiel]

2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

Nope it's not going to reach the maximum supply limit by those years. Halving occurs every 4 years so that means that every block reward will reduce into half of it.

And in summary, bitcoin's 21 million supply limit will be fully reached around by 2140 ish.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

Bitcoin will continue, people will mine to confirm transactions.

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

I don't think that any of them is worthy to replace bitcoin. There's too many discussions about it and people are voting for bitcoin to remain, it's likely that any of eth or xrp will be in the last ranks one day.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

It won't happen.

IF this your analysis is based on the market cap and volume, I have doubts that Ethereum and Ripple can replace Bitcoin. Both Ethereum and Ripple have good market cap and volume but I don't think the market value of these coins can not surpass the price of Bitcoin.

[briton]

Both ethereum and ripple each have their own advantages as well as bitcoin, but I still doubt whether ethereum or ripple can replace bitcoin in the future because until now there hasn't been any coin that can surpass bitcoin, and bitcoin is still the top coin.

[Polar91]

I'll pick ETH. It's because I'm very skeptical to its future since it's very useful to the industry of cryptocurrency. Then after Constantinople hardfork, it's expected to increase its speed of making transaction per second and could make it cheaper which is what people are looking in using cryptocurrency.

[kiansantan]

Ethereum has returned to its original position, which is number two after bitcoin. For me, staying at ethereum is the right choice. I am sure ethereum will immediately fix itself if there is a decline in value.

[nreal]

If I need stability and safety I will choose XRP, but if I need high profits I will choose ETH. 2018 shows the stability of XRP, but that means less profit.

[maydna]

but what happened if supplies BTC runs out?

Then I only think that the BTC price will be so high to buy and we cannot buy a whole 1 bitcoin if we don't have huge money.

is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

I don't think so because of every coin in the cryptocurrency will depend on traders, market, news, and other things. So we cannot expect any coins can do that.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

Why do you think like that? I don't think XRP can beat BTC and replace the BTC position. Bitcoin will still lead the cryptocurrency and will be a king in the market except if there is a new technology which more better than the blockchain technology and can solve every problem that might happen, but I don't think so. It does not happen for now.

Besides that, we cannot compare ETH or XRP that can be the second position after BTC because each coin came to us which has a different function to make our life easier and simple and each coin will support each other. But lets we wait for what ETH and XRP can do to us, and we will see who will come to be the next coins after BTC.

[tranduong123]

Many people believe that the BTC will soon be replaced but I think both ETH and XRP will not be able to replace BTC for at least 5 years.

[rosmerius]

I think if the supply of bitcoin runs out it will make bitcoin expensive and keep spinning. We don't know when bitcoin runs out, but this will still be a good investment tool, the more scarce it is to get, the more expensive the value is.
As a substitute for bitcoin it doesn't seem to happen, the bitcoin community will be strong and will have better development. I don't think that XRP will replace bitcoin, a situation that will provide concrete evidence for this.

[altcoin01]

Both ETH or XRP are moving ahead in the competition. Both have been able to get second place, now eth remains at second place.

[sclmte]

ETH had already fulfeild the weekend change to see BTC and XRP, the recent positive news has been continually analyzed. The caution of an analysis is actually mostly due to the over due benefits and short term rise on the price of the currency has been the weekend. at this time confirm the trading opportunities of the strong currency change core to first push BTC and XRP.

[Rina Ambar]

No one has been able to replace Bitcoin both ethereum and ripple, ethereum is developing quite well but I don't think it will be able to replace bitcoin in the near future, until now bitcoin is still difficult to slide

[sekop]

We cannot imagine if the supply of bitcoin runs out and this will be one thing that is rare and looks expensive. And to replace Bitcoin I don't think it exists, because Eth and XRP still can't move Bitcoin, this altcoin can only shift from one another. All analysis is only an opinion that will not be right and must remain optimistic that bitcoin is still valuable.

[aundroid]

I don't think either of the two projects is going to knock Bitcoin off the throne.

But if I have to choose between the two, it's definitely ETH.

XRP is a shitcoin

[Pffrt]

BTC will not run out of supply in 2026, it will take more time. It's still far away from now. But the difficulty will increase. Anyway, I don't think anything will replace BTC and of course XRP will not. XRP will be a good investment for next 2 years max and latwr you know people will avoid the centralization. Just look what coinbase users are doing. Everyone deleting their accounts. This will also happen with XRP, today or tomorrow. So, be careful if you are thinking longtime.

[Baofeng]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

Theoretically, the last bitcoin could be mined in 2140. However, we're almost exhausted everything and by 2026 I would say that we will "almost" see all bitcoin mined.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

It's possible that another crypto will born and take over bitcoin. However, bitcoin will still remain as the top coins, no matter what happens to it's supply.

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

Not sure if either one of the two will top bitcoin though. As others have pointed out, XRP is a bankers coins so I doubt bitcoin maximalist will just shift on XRP.

[Mata Kripto]

that's just according to your predictions, if I personally find it difficult for XRP to outperform the market more than bitcoin, that is very unlikely! even ethereum, which has a market capitalization above XRP, not necessarily able to replace bitcoin I don't think that will happen.

[Pffrt]

Theoretically, the last bitcoin could be mined in 2140. However, we're almost exhausted everything and by 2026 I would say that we will "almost" see all bitcoin mined.

It's not possible to be mined at 2026. You are right that the last bitcoin will be mined in 2140 and that's the correct answer. After each 4 years, rewards got halved. Current rewards is 12.5 BTC per block and it will be reduced to 6.25 on 2020 and 3.125 on 2024, thus it will require all the 2140 to be mined all the bitcoin. You can't complete more than 210000 blocks within 4 years. Daily block is 144 only.

[crwth]

Being one of the top altcoins, both XRP and ETH have a chance to compete with each other, but the reality is, it can never replace Bitcoin, knowing that it has become the currency to be traded in every exchange. No matter what place, who tries to tell, it would be hard to replace the original Cryptocurrency. That’s just my opinion.

[EdenHazard]

If I need stability and safety I will choose XRP, but if I need high profits I will choose ETH. 2018 shows the stability of XRP, but that means less profit.

I don't think XRP have stability price, if you see the price movement on coinmarketcap XRP price have the same with other altcoin even with ETH price. Also, in the past few month XRP and ETH alwasy overtake each other to take second place. At least this is pointed out XRP price alwasy move and this is means you can get also a lot of profit if you have XRP.

[libert19]

I have never used XRP and have heard that it needs activation fees, meanwhile there is no such thing in btc, I prefer btc over xrp, specially that after LN — fees on btc transactions are much less.

[freedomgo]

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

XRP is a bankers coin, I don't think the community would want it to dominate.
ETH and XRP are both profitable and they in good competition right now, whichever replace BTC as long as the it will still result to a good market it doesn't matter to me. However, as an investor, I also have my prediction on this and I choose ETH over XRP.

[tranquangvinh]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

I don't think Ethereum or Ripple can replace Bitcoin's first position in the future, if the supply of bitcoin runs out, I think there will be big changes in the cryptocurrency market and the possibility of another altcoin replacing bitcoin as very low

[Ararbermas]

Base on you thread title actually both were good in my opinion ,which is it depends only if which of that coin will fit only on your strategy.. However if you have money that not needed on this moment then grab both instead . Because in fact previously when market made a small bump we witnessed that ETH show a big average unlike other coins .

[jorenpo]

Nope. Bitcoin will not reach its maximum supplies by 2026. Maybe another 50years because of the halving.
Anyway, this topic was posted already and i always choose eth over xrp.

[silver23]

i keep to choose and hold ETH.
i think ETH is more more better than XRP and of course because ETH is most popular coin in cryptocurrency.
it is OK if ETH fall in 3rd but i believe that will grow up again.
don't to be worry ETH is always be big and bigger next time.

[Apes]

Current conditions allow both of them to become BTC main competitors and even allow them to have prices that are equivalent with BTC. if I have to choose between ETH or XRP I think both of them have a chance. but I think it still takes a long time for both to be equal to BTC. even though BTC supply are running out this is only an everyone guess.

[bountylayomi]

I want to believe that each of these altcoins in question (ETH and XRP) has its own advantages and disadvantages as well. To me personally, both are good to hodl, am hodling both.

[ostap5511]

Ethereum and Ripple are a good choice for investment, they have work products, strong teams, strong partnerships. You can invest in both cryptocurrencies because they both dominate the market.

[Little Mouse]

For a short time like 1 year, XRP can be the best but for long time like 3 or more, Ethereum is yhe best option because it will increase hugely on the next bull run.

[Papcio77]

Not possible, as I believe eth will still prevail over xrp. I know that xrp is keep developing so as eth. Eth fork will probably the start of improvement. Without Vitalik it doesn't mean it will collapse, also it is not guaranteed that the stabilization will fall down once btc 4million reserve taken out. It's also a good thing you know, as it will reduced the clogging of transaction on the network.

[Emmy92]

Until now I still find it difficult to believe any coin is worthy or have what it takes to replace BTC, not even ETH or let alone XRP. XRP is centralized thus going against what the crypto space stands for while ETH is yet to full make its blockchain scalable. But until then, I still have my doubts.

[Alohadanc3]

I don't think that any coin can replace bitcoin at this moment. Or even in future. There is many reason behind it. It is the oldest crypto based on blockchain. And people trust bitcoin over anything. And if has the highest volume at this moment. And listed on almost every exchange. And almost be very exceed have pair with bit coin. So its very hard for any coin to reached bit coin or replace it. And ethereum is a good project but after fall of ico ecosystem its kind of struggling. Xrp is good as a project but it is somehow backed by banks and centralised. So that's it it is really hard for aby coin to replace brick n.

Ethereum and Ripple are both good investment choices, both have working products, strong teams, strong partnerships, alliances and respective foundations.They have also outlived many cryptocurrencies and held Top 5 positions when it comes to overall market capitalisation (or total value of the cryptocurrency). In terms of which is the better investment? I would recommend investing in both, these are two very different cryptocurrencies with different aims, different teams and different partners. If you had the choice between eating apples or oranges for the rest of your life or being able to eat both, what would you choose? Well, just my two cents on this.  Better get going as I monitor my live trading sessions. Cheers!

[talkbitcoin]

you are delusional if you think shitcoins such as XRP and ETH can replace bitcoin. and i am sorry to say this but you are an idiot that you think a token that is not even a currency is going to replace bitcoin which is a currency because it is like saying water is going to replace food!!! they are not even in same category so one can not replace the other.

all that aside, coins like that with huge supply and no cap have no future price-wise because the sheer amount of supply of them will kill their price whether you like it or not.

[clonely]

I'm not sure how accurate it is to compare ETH and XRP with each other. No need to talk about the market value. They are already racing.

[Marrianadmii]

I don't think either of the two projects is going to knock Bitcoin off the throne.

But if I have to choose between the two, it's definitely ETH.

XRP is a shitcoin

Xrp issue is that it's a centralized coin which unfortunately doesn't fulfill the reason behind crypto industry purpose which is mainly based on decentralization. However, on the short term xrp can still be profitable since it's highly connected to institutions which are still in power and ain't going away anytime soon.

[bitcoinisbest]

I'm not sure how accurate it is to compare ETH and XRP with each other. No need to talk about the market value. They are already racing.

Both are great coins and should be invested at preset point if not invested as market is on lower priced currently so easily you all can buy at this price and wait for the bull run to begin. This will be great wealth creation opportunity for people.

[Red-Apple]

neither one of these two coins are good. in fact both of them can be categorized under the same category of centralized pump and dump coins with no future while their prices continues to decline.

even if you wanted profit all you had to do was to look at the market. nowadays that bitcoin is very stable there are lots of altcoins that are getting pumped. take a look at coinmarketcap and you will see today alone there was about 7 altcoins that had pumps bigger than 100%.

[tonyja2017]

 If you want a safe and profitable profitable portfolio, I recommend investing in XRP and BNB. XRP is a huge bank and it is very difficult to manipulate the price strongly. It can bring big revenue every year and this will bring a stable price.
BNB is a large trading platform and has revenues of billions of dollars each year. It is very hard to fall in price and I predict its price will rise to more than $ 20 in 2019.
ETH is a technology enterprise so it also has risks. But with the development of a talented team of ETH, I think it will still outperform XRP.

[Johnyz]

Yes especially with a higher volatility of XRP where we can create easy trade and earn profit. We know that these two coins are competing for the top 2 spot so if you’re a wise investors you probably know where to put your money. I do have ETH and will buy more XRP for the preparation of its future pump.  

[o.ogurlu]

I don't think the Ethereum or Ripple will replace the Bitcoin. Yeah, maybe some coins  in the future can replace the Bitcoin. But I think this can happen only after 10-12 years. Also in my opinion, there will be no XRP or ETH within the coins that exceed the Bitcoin price. Because even now many people do not fully trust these two coins like the BTC. And that's why I don't think that XRP or ETH can reach the market cap of BTC.

[DainSLane]

I would choose the ethereum rather than XRP these two has a big difference with their prices and popularity to the investors and to the community, ethereum has a bright future in crypto industry as it uses in different aspect in payments, fee transaction.

[posi]

If I need stability and safety I will choose XRP, but if I need high profits I will choose ETH. 2018 shows the stability of XRP, but that means less profit.

I won't choose XRP if I was you because the last time I checked XRP was a centralized coin and the perfect coin to be in place of Bitcoin once Bitcoin reaches the total 21million coins will still be bitcoin. Although, another may take the most used,traded and exchanged criteria but Bitcoin will still be the number 1.

I still don't know why you guys sees XRP as a good investment or a coin which could bring a stable income whereas the profit which it bring was purpose for the insider big fish. I believe ETH still have the quality to be the next Bitcoin have we reach the total coin but is too early for us to decide that.

[suzanne5223]

Yes, Bitcoin will still be the number 1 coin on capital market after the 21million coins were mine cause bitcoin will be hard to buy then and the holder of Bitcoin will send it at high price but being the number 1 coin of Bitcoin won't last long buddy because nothing last forever.
That's the logical theory of nature.

[akram143]

Definitely ethereum is my first choice because I am getting a lots more profit from the investment on ethereum in many times but still the both to investments are not good like we are expecting an invested previously but it will not be able to given by them very soon but the future of ethereum will definitely be good for me to get profits.

[BitcoinHodler]

it is always so fun to see how centralized shitcoins have a bunch of newbies fooled into believing they have a future while they empty their pockets
meanwhile bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency that is decentralized and also consistently rising since it is actually useful unlike all these nonsense coins which are made only for pump and dumps.

[keanne_isaac]

Bitcoin supply will not run out as long as there are traders who are willing to buy and sell it will continue to circulate in the market. Mining cycle of bitcoin may last until 2040  but as times goes by the mined bitcoin become lesser and lesser because of dificultty or halving that being set by the developer. And fir xrp and eth i would pick eth since xrp is centralized and majority of coins are being kept by the developer.

[rdewilde]

I will invest for 60% ETH 40% for XRP. Both are the best altcoin in this market. And so we don't need to choose 1 in 2. maximize your investment to be most profitable

[BitcoinTurk]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

If I have to share my own thoughts, ideas and analyzes, no one will be able to reach Bitcoin in this market for quite a long time. In addition to having a serious power in the market as well as being used as the main money against all alternatives, it has been a very serious advantage for Bitcoin. On the other hand, if you think about the options you specify, it will never reach its biggest position because it has an XRP based structure. In the event of a possible empowerment in the Ethereum side, Vitalik Buterin will intervene again and Ethereum will quickly lose this throne. As a result, we are talking about a software developer who caused the price of the money to be lowered by stating that the price was too high in the previous bull period.

[jan.nicolas]

There is a difference and it certainly is in favor of the ETH project, which today is of great importance for the entire cryptocurrency world. Therefore, I think that many will agree that I will make a choice in favor of the ETH project.

[Fredomago]

I will invest for 60% ETH 40% for XRP. Both are the best altcoin in this market. And so we don't need to choose 1 in 2. maximize your investment to be most profitable

Investment wise, choosing and following this two competing coins are good for both short and long term holdings, since they are both trying to be
more successful from each other, the movements of this two coins can be assess while you are working with your knowledge, knowing the grounds
what the coins new offerings to move the market up or what would be the downside why the value will fall.

[beeelzebub]

Eth is king of the altcoins. Xrp is a shady token holding mostly by a company which they can mine infinite amount.

So, of course ETH!

[MetalGear]

Ethereum (eth) and Ripple (xrp) are belong to the potential coins which have bring good income in the near future. I have xrp and eth in my wallet but most of my coins are in eth where have more potential to increase the price in the future especially it has new update this year.

[ned.ryerson]

Finally, the Constantinople update took place and now I believe that ETH will have a good perspective this year.

[HichemFetoui]

i truly think that the long term utility of ethereum is more significant than ripple as you see ethereum is a multipurpose blockchain but ripple is a single purpose one !

[ricardobs]

XRP will never replace bitcoin because the last checked, xrp was a coin created for the bank and it can be controlled to some extent, this goes against the original plan for which crypto was created, the goal is to be able to do away with bank just has email made us do away with post mail.

Bitcoin cannot be replaced even if it is fully generated, this will just cause an increase in price, after-all we can still make purchase using small units of bitcoin which we called satoshi.

[Baimovic]

In my opinion, ETH or XRP are both good now, they compete fiercely for rank 2 on the market. What we know is that ETH is superior and more worthy of being ranked 2, I also agree if it is like that. If you are confused, it's better to invest in both because both are high potential.

[Ditlycel]

I think they will compete as both coins good product and very widely used by people , I think comerence for both coins is very good !I think both coins are very good for investment at the moment!

[Hannahanto]

I would always prefer both coins as a trader. And yes i do have the coins now. When ETH goes up, XRP comes down and when XRP goes up, ETH comes down. Invest, watch, wait for the hike with patience and get the profits. Do not rush to see profits in such volatile market.

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

It will not and never, that was a kind of joke and that will never happen for sure dude. As you can see that about how terrible ripple as a centralized crypto that a lot of premined token goes to the dev.
That will never be the sale as BTC and ripple has not chance but ether can do that for sure.

I want you to explain the reasons more specifically. I only analyze the positive value of XRP.

XRP has a good relationship with the bank, has a large supply, and also a good market volume and makes Ripple the best 10 coins. or do you assume XRP will be a stable coin in the future?

[muratsink]

XRP will never replace bitcoin because the last checked, xrp was a coin created for the bank and it can be controlled to some extent, this goes against the original plan for which crypto was created, the goal is to be able to do away with bank just has email made us do away with post mail.

Bitcoin cannot be replaced even if it is fully generated, this will just cause an increase in price, after-all we can still make purchase using small units of bitcoin which we called satoshi.

yes, if we look at the growth of XRP concept and the XRP system. because XRP is only a coin centralized with a crypto system, besides that, XRP is a product for a bank, centralized to give a profit for its owner.

some time ago, XRP created significant bullish when the market was bearish, and I thought it was the activity of bankers behind it.

so, I see this XRP is still a mystery coin that is still debated.

but, what happened if the future XRP follows in the footsteps of BTC, has many popes, public enthusiasm for XRP is very large, volume and volatility are high. I think it's enough to make XRP follow in the footsteps of BTC.

[BCTS]

I don't think Ripple will be able to replace Bitcoin, even if you take Ripple together with Ethereum, although I think that Ethereum and the greater the chance to replace Bitcoin.

[freedomgo]

I don't think Ripple will be able to replace Bitcoin, even if you take Ripple together with Ethereum, although I think that Ethereum and the greater the chance to replace Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is very dominant, currently having a 52% dominant rate, XRP and ETH combine marketcap is only 40% of total's bitcoin marketcap.
That fact alone will tell how big and dominant bitcoin is, maybe in the future they have a chance but for now, I don't see it's happening since the trend always relies on BTC's movement.

[axel2078]

I don't think Ripple will be able to replace Bitcoin, even if you take Ripple together with Ethereum, although I think that Ethereum and the greater the chance to replace Bitcoin.

Until now, only ETH can compare with BTC. XRP is a good altcoin but it is not a competitor of ETH and BTC. So if I have long-term investment, I will never choose XRP

[beveryu778]

In future too I don't think XRP will ever replace to Bitcoin. Bitcoin will always stay in the first position. Everyone has trust in BTC and that's why most of us has made an investment in BTC.

[centhiniz]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

I think ETH in the future will replace BTC and become the number one crypto in the market. But now the price of this market is very low, and I think the price of ETH will go up more than $1,000 in the year 2020 if the cryptocurrency market recover.

I also hope that eth can return to the previous position or more because, I believe the potential that eth has is very good for the coming year and can be the best coin again, and eth I think crypto is very easy to use because,
the price is not too expensive so crypto eth can be a good attraction for investors.

[Red-Apple]

I don't think Ripple will be able to replace Bitcoin, even if you take Ripple together with Ethereum, although I think that Ethereum and the greater the chance to replace Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is very dominant, currently having a 52% dominant rate, XRP and ETH combine marketcap is only 40% of total's bitcoin marketcap.
That fact alone will tell how big and dominant bitcoin is, maybe in the future they have a chance but for now, I don't see it's happening since the trend always relies on BTC's movement.

market capitalization should never be used in altcoin market because in 90% of the times it is fake as it is with both ethereum and ripple because of their huge premines. not to mention that having a smaller market cap is always better for pumps. for example there are coins today that have ranks above 100 but are getting pumped more than 100%

[Dilladupak]

I think XRP and ETH. for me it's also a good coin for us to invest, but for me it's also impossible, it can replace its position as bitcoin, even for years.

[Kocret02]

I still believe in eth, currently the eth position shifts XP to second place. but I see xrp maybe in the future can be in a good position and this is very profitable for eth owners or xrp

[chikucrypto]

I am with ethereum and I know XRP is excellent coin and XRP can take the place of ethereum in near future but still I believe ethereum is better than XRP.

[beveryu778]

I will always choose ETH over XRP. Because I know how high ETH has potential in its further growth. And now everyone can judge it by looking market capitalization.

[babarian]

in fact I believe in ethereum more than Ripple. the ethereum platform has been widely used, I am sure that with developing ERC-20 smartcontracts, ethereum prices will continue to increase.

[Johnzky]

Lol never will Ripple(XRP)will replace bitcoin forever,remeber that ripple is centralized coin and being used and supported by banks institutions worldwide meaning the essence of cryptocurrency as decentralization will vanish and this is not happening

Another thing is Ethereim will always be number 2 coins from bitcoins this has a solid team and potential to conquer the market longer

[Altero]

Lol never will Ripple(XRP)will replace bitcoin forever,remeber that ripple is centralized coin and being used and supported by banks institutions worldwide meaning the essence of cryptocurrency as decentralization will vanish and this is not happening

Another thing is Ethereim will always be number 2 coins from bitcoins this has a solid team and potential to conquer the market longer

People we're so optimistic and even very supportive to XRP thinking any possibility for replacing fiat but they'll never realize how it actually work.
Even how many years to come still bitcoin is unbeaten, in the fact that Bitcoin is the real player in crypto space and even having a big role for its development. 

[andor.gellenhidi]

I think that today to make some choice in order to buy such serious projects, you need to very successfully analyze projects. Now both projects have large communities. I think that they need to take both.

[mbsyahia]

ETH because Ethereum is well planned about its reach after four years. So, it is implementing that roadmap rigorously. This is a platform with a clear vision of what it wants to achieve.

[2tang]

if I judge for real I would say that XRP is better than ethereum because XRP has a real project and always develops their platform, but even so I can't say that XRP will be able to replace the role of bitcoin as a crypto price stabilizer because ethereum has improved its platform first and has been liked by many people so that ethereum has more fans and communities than XRP and as you know that it will be difficult to make people switch from what they like so even though XRP is always developing but I think ethereum will be better able to control the market and therefore ethereum is more appropriate to replace the role of bitcoin

[pleci]

This is not something that is impossible that BTC will someday run out and of course have a negative impact on Cryptocurrency life in the future. I do not want that to happen but there is nothing wrong with thinking which coin is worth replacing the position of BTC, there are two possible coins between ETH and XRP according to people. Some time passed and ETH began to lose its strength and conversely the XRP was even more developed, but I personally dominated the ETH coins. I am sure ETH can rise again as usual and become the most potential Altcoin.

[korean1999]

ETH is my favorite altcoin, so I will choose ETH to invest and make a profit from it. Honestly, I have never invested in XRP since I joined this market

[Open4lies]

I will always choose ETH because of the potential of this crypto. In this market now, only BTC and ETH are worth to invest in the long-term. So that you should consider investing in ETH instead of XRP because I think XRP project is useless.

[Skroojee]

I think that both of these coins will continue to lead the cryptocurrency market, but I still prefer Ethereum, as Ripple in my opinion is quite a limited coin.

[macstrong12]

Actually between those if I must choose I would rather to choose ETH because XRP is centralized, And if you ask me whether I like either of them or not , I'd rather say no I like nither of them because of centralization and unknown number of tokens of ETH , I would rather to choose some better project .

[fortelen]

I have capital and I am interested in investing in Ethereum and XRP. I'm happy because these two coins are now competing to be the best in the Coinmarketcap capitalization list. But if XRP will replace Bitcoin, I think it will be very difficult.

[Fredomago]

I have capital and I am interested in investing in Ethereum and XRP. I'm happy because these two coins are now competing to be the best in the Coinmarketcap capitalization list. But if XRP will replace Bitcoin, I think it will be very difficult.

Not just difficult but very difficult indeed, while trying to replace bitcoin, ETH already gained back the number 2 spot from CMC, so xrp needs to compete first with ETH before moving to the next level of challenging bitcoin, investment wise both coins can be good as long as you have huge capital and you are
using spare money which you can hold for long, the returned will be good for your long term engagement.

[Red_Evil]

I have capital and I am interested in investing in Ethereum and XRP. I'm happy because these two coins are now competing to be the best in the Coinmarketcap capitalization list. But if XRP will replace Bitcoin, I think it will be very difficult.

There is no substitute for bitcoin because there is absolute and irreplaceable bitcoin, ethereum and ripple will still compete in taking second place so it is very good for investment in both because they will develop to be the best altcoin.

[OcTA Bd]

Obviously Ethereum......

[sarmrakib]

I don't think the supply will end of this year you mentioned .Its really tough to say a coin can replace with btc .Eth and XRP are on the top position in altcoin .Both has great volume and market cap .Both project are well developed .So that its really tough to say to me btc will replace with Eth or XRP.

[Viceroy]

I do not agree with you. I think ETH in the future will dominate more than XRP. Ethereum is not static, it is constantly evolving.   

[yakushev]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

None of them will take the place of bitcoin, this is too incredible a scenario even for the distant future, as well as the probability that Ethereum will lose the fight XRP, they have already taken their places

[Cashi]

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

I can't imagine that XRP will replace BTC. XRP isn't useful compared to BTC and has no promising function except collecting miney for the founders of XRP. ETH is far better thatn XRP and there is no disadvantage without Vitalik because the other devs of ETH are also very good.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

No, because XRP is a shitcoin. Most people won't buy it only the unexperienced and greedy speculants.

[arimamib]

I do not agree with you. I think ETH in the future will dominate more than XRP. Ethereum is not static, it is constantly evolving.   

yes you are right the ethereum trust is currently decreasing but the development of technology by ethereum is more visible. I think Eth will have a place like before and maybe XRP only for a moment. because eth has advantages that I think do not match the current price

[futuristishe]

I think that let it remain in its place. Ethereum will be the second. And Ripples on third place. It will be the most ideal solution on the stock exchange. The Ethereum justified is this place

[radjie]

It is impossible, investor interest in bitcoin is certainly bigger than XRP, even to replace the eth position known as the king of all altcoins, XRP is still too early to achieve it and takes a long time to attract more investor interest so that price growth can increase

[whirlcoin]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

I will go with the ethereum because give more stable and trusted then xrp but it is also in a good state but more than that ethereum will give me the confidence about the future so I will definitely invest in ethereum only.

[freedomgo]

I think that let it remain in its place. Ethereum will be the second. And Ripples on third place. It will be the most ideal solution on the stock exchange. The Ethereum justified is this place

For now but in the future, we never know.
ETH might be no. 1, who knows, it's very useful compared to Bitcoin but Bitcoin is just popular now.

This is not something I really like to happen, I just want all of my coins to improve its value so it can give a good return.
All the coin mentioned that are in top 5 are good coins IMO, so even if they interchange ranking but as long as they grow, well that matters.

[Twinscoin2017]

I always believe in ethereum than any other altcoin on the crypto feild. I see that the ethereum.is always next to bitcoin in terms of value and popularity, maybe we can see that the ethereum is always next to bitcoin because if bitcoin will rise ethereum will also rise, I think we need to be more patience, xrp is also potential coin but the most amazing is eth because ethereum is already trusted long time ago.

[jems]

It would be very confusing to determine the replacement (if necessary), between Ethereum and Ripple I think both of them are coins with a lot of popularity with high popularity for investors.

[concitta]

It would be very confusing to determine the replacement (if necessary), between Ethereum and Ripple I think both of them are coins with a lot of popularity with high popularity for investors.

both are good choices and they can still be profitable they compete for second place.
if you want to invest both Altcoin is also a good choice, if you choose one, people's tastes are different so they have different choices, if I personally prefer Ethereum, even though both are equally good.
but I have an interest in Ethereum and I am sure of him.

[hellyah070]

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

Are you comparing these two coins in the market? Well, if the comparison will going to be just in here on the bitcointalk forum, it is not enough to create an impact that can lead to productivity. What am I saying? Comparison is the root of development in some ways and we need to expose the characteristics of these both.

[maxreish]

ETH and XRP to replace bitcoin? Not probably gonna happen. From the very first time I've joined crypto, too many threads and topics were started claiming that ETH will replace btc as eth was on it's top2. But then, until now bitcoin remains the king and even the strongest altcoin like eth and xrp will not beat the king.

[rencong bitcoin]

Until now I still love ETH, this coin is a very potential and worthy coin to invest, I will wait for ETH to return to the price of more than $ 1,000, as has happened before, even though now the price of ETH is still far at a price of $ 1000, but I am sure the price will return to that price.

[manfredmann]

I always believe in ethereum than any other altcoin on the crypto feild. I see that the ethereum.is always next to bitcoin in terms of value and popularity, maybe we can see that the ethereum is always next to bitcoin because if bitcoin will rise ethereum will also rise, I think we need to be more patience, xrp is also potential coin but the most amazing is eth because ethereum is already trusted long time ago.

Both are good but i agree with you that ethereum is one a promising and worth to believe. Basing on its high volatility on 1st and second quarter of the year 2018, many are earning by doing some trades. I guess if there is another market price increase it is better to go in ethereum and bitcoin. I know that Ripple could also pump up in just a day but after that it will going to have huge fall down so it is more risky if you are not always checking its market price.

[dark08]

Until now I still love ETH, this coin is a very potential and worthy coin to invest, I will wait for ETH to return to the price of more than $ 1,000, as has happened before, even though now the price of ETH is still far at a price of $ 1000, but I am sure the price will return to that price.

The price of ethereum right now are far from its all time high, I also like ethereum platform because its easy to use the developers are doing great to improve product and to compete to other project on other scenario xrp are good project also but Im not feeling well to use it because its controllable by the bank.

[jusertvaz]

Until now I still love ETH, this coin is a very potential and worthy coin to invest, I will wait for ETH to return to the price of more than $ 1,000, as has happened before, even though now the price of ETH is still far at a price of $ 1000, but I am sure the price will return to that price.

Everything will depend only on the cryptocurrency market as a whole. I do not believe in the price of $ 1000 for one ETH, but if this happens I will be very happy.

[ribowo76]

I agree with some people here, that it seems unlikely that bitcoin will be replaced by another coin. Especially by XRP, it feels very unreasonable. Because we know, it's not really decentralized. So it's very vulnerable to being manipulated by developers

[ameliana]

Until now I still love ETH, this coin is a very potential and worthy coin to invest, I will wait for ETH to return to the price of more than $ 1,000, as has happened before, even though now the price of ETH is still far at a price of $ 1000, but I am sure the price will return to that price.

but if you really want to invest I think it's better to have both because XRP is also a pretty good coin when viewed from the investment side.
the proof is that the XRP beats ETH several times so if you have both of these coins you will get more profits and also minimize losses because sometimes both of them go up and down alternately.

[integrity42]

I agree with some people here, that it seems unlikely that bitcoin will be replaced by another coin. Especially by XRP, it feels very unreasonable. Because we know, it's not really decentralized. So it's very vulnerable to being manipulated by developers

XRP is very little traded on the market, it is more needed by banks for transfers, so now XRP is so high on the market

[Rimon365]

In my opinion both are best. XRP are good for short term invest and ETH are invest for long term. I think some days later XRP are goes to moon.

[gangem07]

I don't think ripple will replace bitcoin in the future even ethereum.Bitcoin has a huge market capitalization and it is good even short or long term investments.Ripple will not overcome bitcoin in a sense of demand and supply in the market.

[rezakurnia66]

if for now the XRP might not be able to rise above ETH but for the future because technology will definitely grow and there is no possibility that XRP can be the same as ETH, we look forward to the best for all in the future.

[GhostWithin]

In my opinion both are best. XRP are good for short term invest and ETH are invest for long term. I think some days later XRP are goes to moon.

I believe that the growth potential of a ripple is much greater than that of Etherium:
1. The number of partner banks is growing, which means that the cost of a ripple will increase.
2. IEO appeared as a temporary alternative of ICO (Soon almost all exchanges will do this.). To participate in IEO Etherium isn't needed.

[arnoldrimmer]

There is no other king except Bitcoin. Eth and XRP can never replace Bitcoin  rather they will always follow but Eth will have a better advantage than Bitcoin

[pishite]

I do not think that ripple will be able to compete with ethereum, the winner will be ethereum, thanks to smart contracts and a new mining algorithm. But do not forget that ethereum has competitors with cheaper transactions.

[znation]

It will be very useful to think that XRP will replace BTC and get 20K price compared to BTC. Find out more carefully with the 2 platforms between ETH and XRP, the answer will know.

[arifteguhr]

I do not think that ripple will be able to compete with ethereum, the winner will be ethereum, thanks to smart contracts and a new mining algorithm. But do not forget that ethereum has competitors with cheaper transactions.

it's true that there are coins that rival ethereum with cheaper deals but I'm sure ethereum will be a coin 2 in a long time. so I will choose ethereum for investment and trading because the results are very good

[shadowdio]

In my opinion ethereum will replace if bitcoin runs out supplies, it's already gained popularity so no doubt ethereum will replace it. Ethereum will be the number 1 crypto in the future.

[ranman09]

Bitcoin will still be the coin to use. We are not even sure if it will hit mass adoption or if people will leave the fiat system and solely use bitcoin. So the problem in its maximum will not be a problem. And I am sure the devs will propose an improvement on the core to supplement if the problem occurs.

as for XRP, I think it will not happen. XRP is centralized and it is manipulative.

[isen]

In my opinion ethereum will replace if bitcoin runs out supplies, it's already gained popularity so no doubt ethereum will replace it. Ethereum will be the number 1 crypto in the future.

I doubt it very much. Despite the fact that Ethereum has an endless emission, this will not allow him to occupy a leading place in the list of cryptocurrencies.

[aokiji06]

it is very difficult to replace BTC, because BTC is the beginning of existing coins, and all coins currently still depend on the price of BTC, like in the real world BTC is gold or land, the longer the price is cheaper the more it rises, both eth and xrp I don't think it's possible to shift the btc value even though it rises, then btc will also rise

[martina14]

This QUESTION AND THREAD has been created for many times.

EHTEREUM will be chosen all the way, they have a good contract tokens at ERC-20
They have a decent total supply and real volume un the market.
This is the mose used in any ICO!

[Johnzky]

This QUESTION AND THREAD has been created for many times.

EHTEREUM will be chosen all the way, they have a good contract tokens at ERC-20
They have a decent total supply and real volume un the market.
This is the mose used in any ICO!

But Ripple(XRP) has banks behind and this is why the coin is now competing against Ethereum ,erc20 is now losing its popularity as many platform was created and gaining trust from the ICO now so in future maybe Ripple will take the top 2 position permanently second to bitcoin

[layoutph]

I choose ETH over XRP because ETH has a smart contract and programmable via Solidity while XRP claimed to be use by Banks,  but wheres the proof?

[Psynthax]

I do not think that ripple will be able to compete with ethereum, the winner will be ethereum, thanks to smart contracts and a new mining algorithm. But do not forget that ethereum has competitors with cheaper transactions.

There was a lot of coins from the team will be dumped to the market and this will prevent the price of ripple. It's just the matter of time and i was seeing a lot of chance for ethereum in this case.
That will be a true story about that.

[mamahdedeh]

In my opinion, both ETH and XRP have the potential to stabilize the crypto currency market replacing bitcoin. Competition between ETH and XRP will continue to occur to compete for the highest position. Both of these coins will be competing to create more useful innovations. ETH might be a substitute for bitcoin because ETH has technology that can be used as real as possible, providing blockchain rides and smart contact technology. While XRP has advantages in terms of transaction speed. I'm sure the more forward the two coins will be to innovate.

[raptorez]

Perhaps here it is necessary to note the deadlines for exactly which time we are betting today, because the deadlines are important for traders. That timing will show the need for making money.

[Dobolen]

This discussion is quite interesting because ETH and XRP are now competing for second place. And indeed the XRP can go up in number two but it doesn't last long and Ethereum is back in number two. XRP is also still very far away if it will replace Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the king of Cryptocurrency coins.

[axel2078]

I don't even think any of them have the chance to beat Bitcoin. A look at XRP and ETH one can see the competition is hot, but yet ETH keeps retaining its position. So I don't think XRP can ever beat ETH on the long term let alone replacing BTC in the future.

[el kaka22]

Ethereum all the way, I mean there is no point on asking which one is better, ripple is literally a decentralized scam coin and that's just it. If you ask how they managed to get so high in market cap and how they have been around for so long, it is pump and dump scheme. They have plenty of the same coin themselves and they just buy it and sell it the way they want to. That is why they managed to play with the coin and the price however they wished to.

If the price is too low they just buy some because they sold a lot of it early on so they have shit ton of bitcoin in their account and that way they prevent the coin to drop too further down than the market and when their coin goes way too higher than it should they sell it and make that bitcoin back.

[mersal]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

more than the xrp I had a support under trust fa the ethereal because there will be a lots of profits will be made by me from the development of ethereum so if xrp will also be in good state the possibility of be in the place after the Bitcoin will be difficult it will definitely apt for ethereum only.

[naira]

XRP and eth are both good coins and are ranked two and three have a small capital better invest in xrp, have a large capital better invest eth because these two coins have great potential for hold long-term

[Danda23]

For me, Eth and XRP are both good coins,  they have high volume even in coinmarketcap, but I would go for eth, I think choosing is a matter of choice based on my research. In all, they both have their different use case. I also think the value of eth will rise more because of it's demand and acceptance in the cryptospace.

[Boombull]

Anytime and any day, I will prefer ETH to XRP. To me Ethereum is more useful and applicable than XRP and there is also controversable about the decentralization of XRP, many are still skeptical about this.

[Kiefner]

Personally, I think that Ethereum is better than Ripple, but it is worth investing in both of these coins, since both of these coins have approximately equal chances of great growth in the future.

[gaj ahmada]

we don't know what will happen in the future, but for now I think ethereum is better than XRP, ethereum has the possibility
to continue to be the best altcoin in the future, with its popularity ethereum will have a great future
in my opinion although when the supply of bitcoin in the future has run out, bitcoin remains the king of all coins and affects
the price of other coins

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

No, XRP will not able to replace bitcoin right now or 5 years on future, when some company will implement them payment into cryptocurrency, bitcoin will be first. second line is ethereum and third line is BNB. ripple going to fourth line.

[anexxty009]

From my opinion I think it will take many years for an altcoin to replace Bitcoin, it's popularity has been dominance and if a coin should replace Bitcoin looking at potential growth of BNB,  they stand a better chance that XRP

[primeminer]

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

No, XRP will not able to replace bitcoin right now or 5 years on future, when some company will implement them payment into cryptocurrency, bitcoin will be first. second line is ethereum and third line is BNB. ripple going to fourth line.

I also think that bitcoin will still exist and be able to compete in the market because bitcoin has become popular and many people believe in the value of bitcoin. I think ETH and XRP will remain under bitcoin.

Ethereum and ripple are always stay in a second place because of kingmaker was stay in first place. In crypto platform we should not compare the Bitcoin because altcoins comes in Bitcoin seed. Now Compare to ETH vs XRP both are good to survive in long term. But most of the peoples are supporting to Ethereum platform because of ripple was supporting to banking process.

Now Compare to ETH vs XRP both are good to survive in long term. But most of the peoples are supporting to Ethereum platform because of ripple was supporting to banking process.

you are right, I think both the assets that look good for the long term. We don't need to compare them. ethereum and ripple has the market on their own, their community has been growing well. If you want to invest I think select both of these assets does not make problems.

[djuragan]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

This is less likely to happen, even if it's possible it would takes a lot of times for XRP to reach the level of BTC, since the total supply of XRP is so much different compared to BTC, so to be able to get the price rise just like BTC that would be almost impossible task to be done.

[Kezacky]

I don't think that even ethereum or XRP will dominate the market or replace bitcoin. even though they have good development and the smart ethereum platform is often used for ico, it is also impossible to replace bitcoin especially XRP is absolutely impossible. I believe that bitcoin will always dominate the market.

[bitzizzix]

Bitcoin is the first digital currency in the world or in the crypto world, and I don't think that far that ETH or XRP will replace the position of bitcoin and I think that is very impossible.
bitcoin is the determination of other coins and will depend on bitcoin, bitcoin remains number 1 in cryptocurrency and will not be replaced with other coins, and ETH remains in second place in cryptocurrency and for XRP I cannot judge because I am not interested.

[cewekimut]

Bitcoin will not be replaced because this is the first coin. And the selling value is still very expensive even though the price is decreasing. I think many people know Crypto because they initially knew Bitcoin. XRP is a good coin because it is able to compete with Ethereum who is second. And to achieve that like Ethereum and Bitcoin still need a very long time.

[Osarman]

It would be very confusing to determine the replacement (if necessary), between Ethereum and Ripple I think both of them are coins with a lot of popularity with high popularity for investors.

They are not substitutes. Both of them are very different and have different financial graphs and uses and further depend on the users who acquire them. In terms of monetary benefits, I believe both of them are good enough with ETH leading and XRP after it.

ETH is widely accepted in some of the markets and companies around the world as well. XRP is a bit slow but can give you return so go for both.

[edisystem]

I choose ETH, because i think Ethereum value can go more higher than before.

In my opinion the potential of Ethereum is really big and also the demand of ethereum still big. XRP? It's a good coin but i prefer to choose ETH than XRP.

[tonibyuzen]

In my opinion, XRP will not be able to replace BTC because a cryptocurrency that is centralized cannot be number one. If we talk about the cost of XRP in $20K, I think it's fantastic and this is simply impossible, the total supply of coins XRP is 99 billion.

[logisticalmother]

both eth and xrp in my opinion both of these coins have their strengths - each and the level of nobility itself but, I myself prefer eth compared to xrp because, I have also used eth since a long time ago so I am more loyal to eth and currently eth prices also start experiencing a good increase in prices.

[Aryleeto]

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

No, XRP will not able to replace bitcoin right now or 5 years on future, when some company will implement them payment into cryptocurrency, bitcoin will be first. second line is ethereum and third line is BNB. ripple going to fourth line.

Well bnb is still certainly far from ripple , but I also think if bnb will develop at the same pace as over the past year and a half he may take the second place in terms of capitalization , as a coin very much in advance !

[Tahdayi]

In my opinion, XRP will not be able to replace BTC because a cryptocurrency that is centralized cannot be number one. If we talk about the cost of XRP in $20K, I think it's fantastic and this is simply impossible, the total supply of coins XRP is 99 billion.

Of course ripple not will replace btc, here even not need to to speak about this, ripple very narrow circle who uses at face value, on this I believe more in eth

[go4crypto]

ETH and XRP are two very different coins and their applications are different as well. ETH is obviously better choice but XRP is not bad either. XRP pumps up very fast and is great to make some money quick by selling into those pumps.

[CoinEraser]

Hopefully I won't see the day when Ripple will displace Bitcoin. That would really be a bad day for cryptocurrencys and for the idea of Satoshi behind crypto. Ripple is anything but a free cryptocurrency and therefore I don't understand why so many people support it. Should an altcoin manage to displace Bitcoin, I hope it will be ETH or LTC, but not Ripple. 

[Yahiris]

I like ETH better, because it is more volatile on the market and it is faster and easier to earn than XRP

[South Park]

You wont have to, ripple will never displace bitcoin as the most widely used cryptocurrency around the world, however in the unlikely case it happened I will seriously think about giving up and getting out of the market because it is obvious that if banks gain control of it then it will not be any different than fiat and in fact the potential to be even worse is there since governments and banks will know everything you are doing with your money and they could always change the code to allow them to steal your funds if they wanted.

[Cryptorwellian]

One day, Stellar will replace both Bitcoin and Ripple

[JohnMacZeppelin]

Most people who believe in ETH will certainly disagree with me, but today it seems to me that the capabilities of the XRP project are very high and I hope that you also understand all these situations with ETH and fork, but XRP despite the fact that it can hardly be called cryptocurrency supported by banks.

[rolik2001]

If XRP replace Bitcoin it will be dead for all cryptocurrency and idea of decentralization. Xrp don't have feature. It is more likely that Eth or EOS will replace BTC, because they are more decentralization and can be used for everything . But, they can't replace it right now as they have a lot of problems which must be solved.

[kr105]

Sometimes i can’t believe some people are still talking about this weird replacement thing It feels like a joke, in my eyes there is no chance xrp to replace bitcoin. Plus, xrp is not more reliable than btc.

[minersday]

Are you assumptions and predictions related to the market price of bitcoin or the popularity of bitcoin been replaced by XRP ?? IF this is based on that, then i don't think I will agree with you on that. In terms of popularity, Bitcoin is known worldwide and its the widely used cryptocurrency has it stands now. Both ETH and XRP have very good potential but I don't think they can surpass bitcoin or even replace it..

[Bonenx14]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

Your opinion can happen. XRP is currently continuously developing its platform. but I think ETH is not just staying silent, they will certainly also make a change to be able to compete in the crypto market, and if the development is successful it might be that ETH will be more favored to replace BTC

[StephenJH]

Sometimes i can’t believe some people are still talking about this weird replacement thing It feels like a joke, in my eyes there is no chance xrp to replace bitcoin. Plus, xrp is not more reliable than btc.

No way to replace the king with new altcoin. We are supposed to say something to crazy ideas or opinions. New crypto influencers use such idiotic announcements along with shilling on social media for increasing their followers.

[globalpain]

it is not possible for XRP to replace the position of bitcoin, bitcoin is the strongest coin in the market, ethereum is still far
better than XRP, in the future bitcoin will still be the king of coins and ethereum is the best altcoin

[XCANA]

One day, Stellar will replace both Bitcoin and Ripple

It can be debated if you mention Stellar will replace Ripple one day than you mentioning Stellar which it not compare to Ethereum to talk of Bitcoin itself. For more information, kindly check out the coinmarketcap for the possibility of Stellar to dethrone Ripple and Bitcoin. Base on the subject, Ethereum is my favorite compare to Ripple.

[Emilyp]

I prefer ethereum for everything. Ripple has spent the past months sleeping, there haven't any significant move with its price except it has continued to drop value unlike Ethereum.

[mrdeposit]

I like ETH better, because it is more volatile on the market and it is faster and easier to earn than XRP

The fact that the XRP being the centralized makes me very distant. So, centrzlied cryptocurrencies like that ruin crypto's nature. But, ETH is a much different and useful crypto. And I think there is a lot of difference between them. Try ETH...

[Litzki1990]

I would choose the ethereum it is been popular compare to XRP and also have a huge value in the market, ethereum have many uses in crypto industry that is why it so very potential of this coin and the blockchain technology and developer is been great.

[PuertoLibre]

Ethereum can beat all them together and XRP has a centralized bias in crypto management. ETH will take leadership sooner or later but time will tell the wrong and correct side of coin.

[franciscoDC]

I must invest my money in ETH because its market and its value is going big and getting better so the chance that it will be boom is big,actually my investment is on eth and i already gain on it that why i really trust it.

[freedomgo]

I must invest my money in ETH because its market and its value is going big and getting better so the chance that it will be boom is big,actually my investment is on eth and i already gain on it that why i really trust it.

It's not visible to me that it's growing big, I only see the potential base on what I believe.
Well, if you have invested early, you might still be at profit now, but the price is really down now, just compare its ATH and the current price, I'm sure there are investors who are in the middle which still cannot sell now as they will only loss.

[Jpti]

In fact I love both of them, ripple and ethereum. Both of the coins have much potentiality to grow and increase in prices. Ripple is a coin supported by banks while most of the altcoins are built on the ethereum platform. So it is more beneficial to invest in both of them right now as their prices have gone down. I do not think ripple will beat bitcoin in the nearest future.

[shendy]

Until now my choice remains ethereum, I believe that in the future this coin will become even bigger, as the best altcoin ethereum has privileges that no other altcoin has

[endogan]

Until now my choice remains ethereum, I believe that in the future this coin will become even bigger, as the best altcoin ethereum has privileges that no other altcoin has

Ethereum is the best altcoin and he can get back the position he took from XRP, but Ethereum is strong so he can get it back.
both are actually just as good and can be profitable so choosing both will be better because the opportunities you get will be more.

[zekk]

I don't even think they compare, i'am not a fan of xrp and therefor always will support eth.

[Caladonian]

Until now my choice remains ethereum, I believe that in the future this coin will become even bigger, as the best altcoin ethereum has privileges that no other altcoin has

As second to bitcoin for being popular inside this industry, ETH regained it's position and still working alongside with btc, it surely make a big bounce
after btc make its rally, while with xrp which still quite after the comeback of ETH, both for long term investment will bring benefits as long as you
understand and you are willing to take the risk.

[Cemploon]

Bitcoin will never run out and along with the growth of the Crypto industry, of course Bitcoin will also continue to increase in value. Etherum and XRP are really good coins but it's hard to change Bitcoin and make all the coins stable.

[Aqcizromencez]

I think it will be very difficult to replace Bitcoin in fact ethereum which has a multifunctional platform has never approached bitcoin,I doubt if ethereum and XRP will replace bitcoin it might be almost impossible,just look at the XP does not experience a price surge but is more stable.

[Ronaldcoin2017]

ETH and xrp are potential coin. Both coin is also popular and good for investment an ethos is really profitable because many people really earn on it. But if I had to choose on both coin o will still choose ethereum for good because ethereum is amazing and it is always next to bitcoin in terms of popularity.

[Bushrat Jahan]

Obviously i like ETH because it has ICO platform and it is most popular coin after BTC but XRP is banker coin and my opinion xrp won't profitable than ETH.

[Pithaxz]

I don't think it can replace Bitcoin, especially XRP, ethereum alone which ranks second on the market so far cannot be above Bitcoin. chances are XPP will continue and only compete with Ethereum. and it won't be possible to be above Bitcoin.

[sergiokkl]

If btc is the king, then the one can replace was a price or known as ethereum. Many transaction by project with an eth base like ico sales, most of them accept eth as oayment and bot xrp. My point is eth is one currency next to btc by purpose and development.

[BurstBurst]

Xrp is better to buy and hold because its community is more durable and has more hold than the ethereum xrp because it is acceptable in other countries where xrp is a partnership of banks in other countries but it is only select when bitcoin breaks xrp does not really affect the market because fewer sells and more holds do not hold other xrp holds because they know that xrp is in the future so it does not fall into the ethereum but its ethereum is good but its price has fallen fast and the dumpers are so large that it is safe for xrp hold rather than the ethereum because it is too much on the ethereum so the losers in the ethereum are losing the ethereum

[jan.nicolas]

Many are now taking the side of XRP, but I would say that today there are so many reasons to start investing in XRP despite the obvious superiority of the ETH project over all other altcoins

[coin-investor]

There is still Bitcoin fork that we can think of as alternatives to Bitcoin, like BitcoinCash and Bitcoin Gold, there's also a possibility that this two Bitcoin forked will challenge Bitcoin in the first spot the possibility is not remote.

[NynaHoney]

I still choose ethereum as my grip because I know this year ethereum will be back to success with a price that continues to improve and develop better, of course in 2018 it is a bad year for ethereum but, I am sure this year ethereum will be glimpsed by investors again and will be used by many people again.

Neither XRP nor Eth can replace Bitcoin. The highest they can get to is have a nice run in price just like they did in the early 2018. XRP getting to $1,000 is a big joke of the century. BTW, according to the coinmarketcap site (CMC) the Bitcoin in circulation is already passed 17million.

I don't think bitcoin can be replaceable. ethereum and  xrp very nice in the market, they have strong support. They certainly will build their own market, because they have a different appeal.

[CoinEraser]

I hope you're right, and that day will never come. If it should come to that, I would probably give up too and not continue with cryptocurrencys. Ripple is and remains a bank coin and therefore I would not support such a coin. I hope the people wake up sometime and realize that Ripple does not stand for cryptocurrencys but for exactly the opposite. Just because the people can earn fiat money with Ripple, many people think Ripple is good without knowing more about it. 

[ekim88]

At the moment, there is a strict connection between the dynamics of the XRP rate and the change in the price of Bitcoin. According to Brad Garlinghaus, Bitcoin’s dominance in the market will soon end. Tokens of projects that solve specific tasks will dominate. The widespread use of XRP is still out of the question. It uses xRapid technology, but it remains unclaimed. Only if it is very common, or if there are other options for the practical application of XRP, the token will have real value and objective promises to a significant appreciation.

[agatha90]

Both of these coins have great potential, except that I prefer XRP compared to ETH. Because the XRP fee is still relatively cheap. And the development of market XRP prices is better than ETH

[cp_underground]

i think until now ETH is keep be the best for me.
you know how much ETH famous and popular that mean ETH is the best coin after BTC.
and ETH always make me get a profit if i hold it.
so ETH is better than XRP, i think.

[South Park]

Sometimes i can’t believe some people are still talking about this weird replacement thing It feels like a joke, in my eyes there is no chance xrp to replace bitcoin. Plus, xrp is not more reliable than btc.

When you understand that their motivations are mostly economic then you can easily understand why they want this, many are mad that they did not bought bitcoin when it was created and they imagine the huge profits they could have gotten if they did, so they want other projects to surpass bitcoin so they can get those profits for themselves but the first mover advantage of bitcoin is so great that unless a critical bug is found in bitcoin then it is unlikely that will happen.

[craigpo]

I've been seeing a lot of people that are involved in XRP are starting to find a liking towards Elixxir which is soon to be in betanet I believe. It'll be intersting to see how the two play out though

thoughts?
https://elixxir.io/

[freedomgo]

I will definitely take ETH. It is more potential than XRP. People have trust on it and it is mosty used by ICO. So the demand of ETH will increase day by day.

That's what you believe, but not everyone are trusting ETH over XRP.
If you analyze its price history, we can tell that XRP is more profitable and in bear times, it did not drop harder than ETH.
I can only say more people are trusting ETH if it's more profitable than ETH and we also don't know the exact figure, so are not sure with that.

Maybe this is only based on our opinion and everyone is entitled to have their opinion, and one way to measure it is by having a voting poll.

[Adriano2010]

When i see the title before open the thread i thought is only a question about what to choose, but after i read i see more and to answer, no never bitcoin will be replaced by ETH or XRP. And i if should choose which coin to get, invest i will choose ETH.

[ansarose1]

For me, if the price now of ripple as exactly as ethereum coin, then i would definitely choose ripple xrp. But if not, its good to be on ethereum since it has a good potential value and also has the second most volume in the market just next to bitcoin.

[yeniruieni]

XRP is still very far away if it will replace BTC and may be difficult to occur. But XRP is a coin that is very potential and able to compete with ETH. XRP has become the number two coin after passing ETH. And I'm sure if in a few months XRP can pump.

[killat]

First, XRP is not even a cryptocurrency,  it's just a centralized premined token that has nothing to do with the  main purpose of crypto: decentralization.

ETH has proven its value overtime,  it has a real utility as most of ICOs are still based on erc20 platform.

[omonuyak]

I think ethereum is still the best altinative to bitcoin and since it is large enough to accommodate tokens and remain number two longer than any other cryptocurrencies i believe it is going to be the best coins after all bitcoin is mine.

[makishart]

AFAIK, CEO of ripple puts 3 millions dollars to the elixxir. XRP supporters will be interesting to see that too. If that will release betanet and i no ico will be running in the future.
Im still waiting for the further news about elixxir ico and that will an interesting thing to be watched

[akungagal]

I think ethereum is still the best altinative to bitcoin and since it is large enough to accommodate tokens and remain number two longer than any other cryptocurrencies i believe it is going to be the best coins after all bitcoin is mine.

yeah, i also think the same thing as you.

the ethereum position will remain there, not replaced by other altcoins or change the position of bitcoin. until now ethereum is the best altcoin. unlike XRP, i don't mean to drop XRP. but i prefer ethereum than XRP.

[Yaiko08]

right I agree with you ETH will not depend on XRP maybe if the XRP for the price will remain slightly below ETH, because for now ETH stays above XRP, but if XRP can be above ETH hopefully it will provide many benefits for other coin coins too

[hieuho381]

as many people believe, ETH is still the best altcoin of all in this market because the community is so much using it as their first priority than XRP, i know XRP is very good but if we want to invest and get higher profit  from other altcoins now and in the future, i will choose ETH rather than XRP.

[anggi]

I also thought the same thing. ETH always gets better, even though XRP also has such strong potential. even now I only hold ETH, and bitcoin, because I believe that the potential of the coin is so great for now, and for the future.

[Nivelir]

A unique decision in favor of the ETH project, which today is supported by a very large number of people. Of course, the same can be said about the XRP project, it is also supported by a lot of people, but I would choose ETH and I did it.

[South Park]

True, the fact that developers of ripple say that is a cryptocurrency doesn't make it true, because as we know that is a coin that is centralized and that has very strong ties with banks, in fact ripple is similar to the coin released by the Venezuelan government with the difference that ripple is successful but that should not blind us to the truth, so between those coins it is very easy to select ethereum over ripple even if ethereum also has its fair share of problems.

neither eth especially no xrp will never replace bitcoin. running out of bitcoin will means only that btc will cost much higher.

[ZloiRediska]

Both of these coins are worthy of. It is difficult to compare their potential as they are completely different in nature and purpose.

[hyunee]

the vitalik left from ETH.

So it is true. I can't believe that Vitalik left ETH. I mean it's a lot of years he's been on ethereum team and he left. Can I ask, for what reason?

On OP, I say that XRP might defeat eth in terms of position. Since, it's a big loss for vitalik to leave ETH.

[Runbitup]

Both of these coins are worthy of. It is difficult to compare their potential as they are completely different in nature and purpose.

but from what I know most people prefer ETH because the quality is more guaranteed.
as a small example is the position of ETH above XRP and that proves that ETH is still better than XRP.

Ethereum holds a lot because it is often used for other transactions such as sending tokens, GAS and others, large volumes and many ico that use smart contact ethereum.

[Mia44]

I think the same, maybe XRP can stabilize prices because XRP has good prospects. if ethereum I'm not sure it can be the best altcoin solution because, ethereum is used by people to participate in ICO sales. and because at this time many ICO frauds have made ethereum prices down because of ICO fraud developers

I don't think ETH and XRP can replace BTC.BTC's position as the beginning of existing currencies and all currencies still depend on the price of BTC. We can see that ethereum is second to bitcoin and if the price of bitcoin increases, ethereum prices will also rise.

[bitzizzix]

I don't think that XRP can defeat Ethereum or defeat Bitcoin, and XRP can only compete with Ethereum and both will not be able to replace the position of market king, namely Bitcoin.
indeed XRP has good potential but not as popular as Ethereun which is always used on ICO projects as payment, so I'm not sure XRP can beat Ethereum's position as second place after bitcoin.

[ralph_0608]

ETH line of business is different from line of business of XRP, the first coins are used as payment for smart contract transaction such as  erc20 coins where it serve as s gas fee everytime you transfer any of your erc20 coins while XRP served as payment for cross border money transfer. And for me both alt coins has the potential to exist by their own respective line of business with out competing each other.

[minus_one_crypto]

Right now I would have invested in Ethereum. It seems to me that this project has great prospects. Ripple is also a good coin, but Aether has more potential.

[Impaler]

They both are very different form each other and there is no reason to make difference. Ethereum is a contract based platform. It is the most used and popular platform in this  crypto ecosystem. In other hand xrp is a banking and money transfer related  token. So ethereum and xrp is very different in basic mechanism. But they are competitor in one place that is market cap. Sometime when market is fully bear than xrp crossed ethereum and take the 2nd place. But now again after hard fork of ethereum recover its price and back to its place.

[DR_Vladislav]

I do not think ever never xrp can replace eth.
Simple words eth is the king of alts after btc.

[Danslip]

I do not think ever never xrp can replace eth.
Simple words eth is the king of alts after btc.

There is no way to replace the ETH with XRP. In speed, ETH can beat the other networks but this is not acceptable for ETH network. ETH and BTC have better chance to survive than Ripple.

[iqlimasyadiqa]

Until now ethereum remains the best altcoin. with various supports, ethereum has a large community so the price of ethereum can be much more stable. I really like ethereum because it has a platform that is widely used by various projects and this is an added value because ethereum can have a very large transaction volume.

[lousie9]

Until now ethereum remains the best altcoin. with various supports, ethereum has a large community so the price of ethereum can be much more stable. I really like ethereum because it has a platform that is widely used by various projects and this is an added value because ethereum can have a very large transaction volume.

Of course everyone knows very well how many communities and the volume given by Ethereum especially Ethereum is one of the altcoins that has stood very long but in reality we have to face price and profit problems, so we don't have to be fanatical about one coin if it doesn't give us an advantage, there's no harm in having XRP.

[suzanne5223]

First, XRP is not even a cryptocurrency,  it's just a centralized premined token that has nothing to do with the  main purpose of crypto: decentralization.

ETH has proven its value overtime,  it has a real utility as most of ICOs are still based on erc20 platform.

True, the fact that developers of ripple say that is a cryptocurrency doesn't make it true, because as we know that is a coin that is centralized and that has very strong ties with banks, in fact ripple is similar to the coin released by the Venezuelan government with the difference that ripple is successful but that should not blind us to the truth, so between those coins it is very easy to select ethereum over ripple even if ethereum also has its fair share of problems.

XRP is centralized coin no doubt about that but you seems not to understand that ripple and XRP are not the same product. Although they both belong to same person but ripple is for security and networking provider for banks etc while XRP is a centralized coin build on cryptography and it also serves as a medium of exchange. Any that posses this quality is cryptocurrency.

Therefore, you and Killat are wrong when you said XRP is not cryptocurrency. But, I dont advice anyone to invest in XRP  cause I dont trust much in it either and if you watch the current graph price of ETH, it have the growth with BTC which mean ETH is the best coin to invest in now.


 

[tomboi]

In my opinion, ETH and XRP coins have very high potential. XRP currently has a very good volume and is able to compete with ETH. But XRP will not be able to replace Bitcoin because the value of Bitcoin also increases. We will continue to see Bitcoin become the number one coin for a very long time.

[freedomgo]

I like to agree with that, ETH and XRP are major coins, due it's trading volume and the success of its price.
However, they have different purpose, XRP is centralized while ETH is decentralized, who would survive and be more popular in the future, that we didn't know and only thing we know is to back what coin we believe will give us profit.

[H0USE]

In my opinion, ETH and XRP coins have very high potential. XRP currently has a very good volume and is able to compete with ETH. But XRP will not be able to replace Bitcoin because the value of Bitcoin also increases. We will continue to see Bitcoin become the number one coin for a very long time.

i dont think ETH can be good enough compared to XRP, XRP has so much potential to replace both ETH and BTC in the future when ETH and BTC is too old and no longer suitable for daily payment due to slow and delay transactions, and i believe it will soon rise much higher than ETH very soon.

[TWW]

it takes time for xrp to grow to that size. we have to know that bitcoin and ethererum take a short time to become the most popular crypto asset now. takes extraordinary time and development.

[Lakai01]

I wouldnt bet too much on XRP. Eg. IBM uses XLM for money transactions and already convinced 6 banks to use it, too. IBM has the contacts and market share to push XLM way further into the banking sector.

[martabaktelor]

It seems that XRP in a few months the price will go up and this is only my prediction. XRP provides excellent motivation when this coin is able to pass ETH. This BTC and ETH are still very popular coins until now. But when the XRP is able to pass through ETH and it also doesn't last long. Because ETH returns to show its quality and the coin can return to number two.

[karagun125]

Both coins has the potential of being a good quality coin, but for me, if i plan to invest, i rather choose ethereum coin since it is good on long term investment, and it has the potential to increase high percentage because it has the second most volume coin in the market, ranking second just next to bitcoin.

[Ss4sukE]

XRP is a pretty good altcoin. but I don't think XRP can replace bitcoin, in terms of price it is also very different, besides that we also know that bitcoin has the biggest capitalization on the market, it's impossible for XRP / ETH to replace bitcoin.

[Ostonian]

The CEO of Ripple said that in the future BTC, although it will retain its important role, is unlikely to become a universal digital currency. Ripple is not far behind the world's leading cryptocurrencies, BTC and ETH. He believes that XRP has the potential to shift bitcoin due to its price and performance. But I think that no matter how much XRP is trying to move BTC and ETH from the market, it will not work.

[hungsanh2512]

In my observation and judgment between ETH and XRP are very potential coins for long-term investment objectives. If I were you I would still choose ETH as above all. Because ETH is very popular and it is used a lot of ICOS campaign.ETH will be just behind Bitcoin so ETH is a perfect choice.

[Correlll]

I truly believe that XRP will be eliminated from crypto currencies market, as soon as the majority of investors would understand that this coin does not belong here. Or developers will make a limited supply and I am not sure if it is possible.

[maculeth]

I prefer Etherher, because so far the biggest one under Bitcoin is Etherum. and just like Bitcoin, Etherher is almost always on every exchanger.

[wesk1212]

I prefer only proven and trusted coins. So Ethereum is just like that. Because I love to work only with him, XRP seems to me to be somehow fancy.

[chikucrypto]

Both are the excellent coins but I believe on ETH more than XRP. because ETH proved itself and it has more potential than XRP.

[joromz1226]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

I think ETH in the future will replace BTC and become the number one crypto in the market. But now the price of this market is very low, and I think the price of ETH will go up more than $1,000 in the year 2020 if the cryptocurrency market recover.

I believed ETH is one of the potential altcoins in the market and among top 1 useful too in terms of ICO projects here.
But as long as Bitcoin is exist in this business industry ETH can't able to replace bitcoin in terms of its value in the market.
I'm not against with it, only I'm just stating the real fact here.  

[playboy654]

I definitely go with ethereum investment because the trust and stability was for me with ethereum was still much higher so the value also been good for ethereum right now that's why I am choosing this.

[bendernine]

I will still choose ethereum because I have been very sure to him that ethereum has the potential that others do not have and he will release later when the right time is,
I wait when that happens then until now I use ethereum and I feel comfortable using so I will defend my ethereum.

[Catmurs]

XRP is a pretty good altcoin. but I don't think XRP can replace bitcoin, in terms of price it is also very different, besides that we also know that bitcoin has the biggest capitalization on the market, it's impossible for XRP / ETH to replace bitcoin.

So actually the topic is not about that , of course it will not replace , I think xrp as an investment is not well suited because the coin is very speculative and centralized , it is better to bypass the party

[Caladonian]

I definitely go with ethereum investment because the trust and stability was for me with ethereum was still much higher so the value also been good for ethereum right now that's why I am choosing this.

As long as you know how things is working from any project that you are investing with, then you are good to go, as you mentioned ETH have a much higher trust and stability while XRP still questionable in terms of potential easily to manipulate, choosing  what you've think is better can save your money, but it should all be balance along the way, as this two projects have a large capitalizations and good market positions respectively, it's up to the supporters to buy which is which they've think is better,.

[Nivelir]

Probably need to say that most of the projects now may actually seem dangerous in the market but not these projects XRP and ETH, these are projects that show a remarkable development momentum. I think that everything will work out for both projects.

[tadpole_bitfrog]

Vitalik will not leave ETH, he is his brainchild, he will not do it. it's just FUD.
I think XRP still can't beat a big technology enterprise like ETH. A bank never had a strong development in a certain time. But a technology enterprise like ETH does. It can increase to 100-200% if it has a special technology platform.
Anyway, I still support ETH more than XRP.

[HatakeKakashi]

I believe to the ethereum to replace bitcoin but ripple will not do that. Because ethereum is the best and more powerful now even the bitcoin. I thinl the possible to happen to the ripple once the bitcoin replace as being number 1 possible for the ripple to becone number 2 and I hope thst really happen now. I will said to everyone the potential of the ethereum is more potential.

[amonymous]

I think that can not be removed from ETH because I know that ETH is a good demand coin in this crypto market. ETH is in the second position according to the daily demand of the supply marketcap. You can use ETH everywhere to get profits for your daily trading and ICO investment.

[money_forever]

I do not think that these coins are competitors to each other. Both projects look quite attractive and it seems to me that we can safely invest in these coins.

[kevinzxz]

if I definitely prefer ETH, because I'm sure in the future there will be many people who use the ETH platform, so ETH prices will increase and of course that will make people who invest in ETH will get big profits and become rich in the future.

[casperBGD]

it is always a question, but ETH is real decentralized altcoin, and XRP is centralized, and it is hard to call it real crypto because of that
XRP overcome ETH with each new emission of tokens, but ETH get back on position two rather fast afterwards

[toast]

for me personally I still choose ethereum because this coin is a good coin for me to be made into a trade or investment right because I can get great results from 2017 and even though this year it was difficult to get a profit like yesterday

[ShakilTaj35]

For many reasons i will choose eth instead of xrp. It is the most favorite coin after btc. It has many dapp and it's the first choice of investors because it has a great value.

[vgk88]

I think that Ripple should begin a new phase of growth in relation to the Ethereum. I think that now you need to buy Ripple. Ripple may be one of the best coins in April.

[hulla]

In my opinion, ETH and XRP coins have very high potential. XRP currently has a very good volume and is able to compete with ETH. But XRP will not be able to replace Bitcoin because the value of Bitcoin also increases. We will continue to see Bitcoin become the number one coin for a very long time.

i dont think ETH can be good enough compared to XRP, XRP has so much potential to replace both ETH and BTC in the future when ETH and BTC is too old and no longer suitable for daily payment due to slow and delay transactions, and i believe it will soon rise much higher than ETH very soon.

I wonder where you get your definition from about ETH and BTC to be too old and you think a centralized coin is next thing tha the crypto sphere needed to replace BTC and ETH. The last time I checked XRP has nothing to offer to the crypto community except the banks,private companies and the governments this is why it doesn't have much support from the community.

Never forget the foundation of crypto was to be decentralized.

[suzanne5223]

In my opinion, ETH and XRP coins have very high potential. XRP currently has a very good volume and is able to compete with ETH. But XRP will not be able to replace Bitcoin because the value of Bitcoin also increases. We will continue to see Bitcoin become the number one coin for a very long time.

You can't compared a centralized and decentralized coin because you cant be sure if there's some foulplay in price and volume information provided about centralized coin. However, the whole thing about crypto currency was not always about the money or surge in price but also keeping the legacy alive. In addition, no matter the potential of a centralized, it potential is still nothing to compare with decentralized coin.

[Alex3231]

I think ETH is the better then XRP. Because XRP platform are not better then ETH. Besides after some ETH will pump minimum 3x but XRP are not that. For that reason I choose ETH.

[prayogi]

I think when the amount of bitcoin supply has run out, bitcoin will still be the number one coin, but if I have to choose coins that will replace bitcoin then I choose ethereum compared to xrp, because xrp has a centralized system, I support ethereum rather than xrp to be the best coin in future

[deredevil]

Between ethereum and ripple, I will choose ethereum, in my opinion until now ethereum remains the best altcoin and many supporters for this coin, and I am sure ethereum will reach its normal price again and in the future it will develop better so I will not hesitate the advantages of this ethereum

[beami]

Between ethereum and ripple, I will choose ethereum, in my opinion until now ethereum remains the best altcoin and many supporters for this coin, and I am sure ethereum will reach its normal price again and in the future it will develop better so I will not hesitate the advantages of this ethereum

Ethereum is indeed quite good and has more development so that it can shift the ripples, we know that ripples are centralized coins. Many people prefer ethereum which is decentralized and continues to provide good performance and is ready to compete in the crypto market.

[Akoldi_ibk]

Both ETH and XRP have different specs — one is decentralized and the other is centralized. So, in their respective domain or ecosystem, they are both king. To be factual here, none of them can replace BTC, but ETH can come close.

[jdarren]

I think it totally depends how you view both because they have different functions. I think there is a lot of use for ETH but it's quite spread out where as XRP is really only one function and that is for payments. I am waiting on ripple's latest investment on elixxir which is a payment and digital messaging app https://elixxir.io/

[Alohadanc3]

Both of them are great project. But they are very much different form each other. Ethereum is a platform based token. It's the most used platform at this moment. In other hand ripple is a banking and money transfer related project. They are a well developed project. But still people don't like ripple cause they are centralised and backed by many banks. But if you see ripple is just a project then it is one of the best project at this moment. They both got high market cap. And as an investment they both are very good. I can't find anything to compare them cause they are form different background.

[Dr.Osh]

I think when the amount of bitcoin supply has run out, bitcoin will still be the number one coin, but if I have to choose coins that will replace bitcoin then I choose ethereum compared to xrp, because xrp has a centralized system, I support ethereum rather than xrp to be the best coin in future

well, I think a lot of things make us think the same, one of them is ETH as the best coin. well, however, XRP is indeed very good, even the XRP has also defeated ETH transactions several times. but, because ETH is the best coin, it doesn't last long.

[monalia]

I think when the amount of bitcoin supply has run out, bitcoin will still be the number one coin, but if I have to choose coins that will replace bitcoin then I choose ethereum compared to xrp, because xrp has a centralized system, I support ethereum rather than xrp to be the best coin in future

well, I think a lot of things make us think the same, one of them is ETH as the best coin. well, however, XRP is indeed very good, even the XRP has also defeated ETH transactions several times. but, because ETH is the best coin, it doesn't last long.

It is really complicated analysis because Ripple also beat the Ethereum market cap in many times so both are good enough cryptocurrency. If we want the exact result Ethereum is better than ripple, But ripple make huge profit in short period so still many investors are believe the Ripple coin. I always support to Erc 20 smart contract so Ethereal is my favourite coin.

[akungagal]

Between ethereum and ripple, I will choose ethereum, in my opinion until now ethereum remains the best altcoin and many supporters for this coin, and I am sure ethereum will reach its normal price again and in the future it will develop better so I will not hesitate the advantages of this ethereum

i agree with you, i also like ethereum more than XRP and now i'm waiting for ethereum to grow again.
but i also store some XRP, because XRP is a pretty good coin in the future just like ETH.

[kristensoto]

ETH and XRP are both famous altcoins and they are the top altcoins that are competing to stand at second place just after BTC, so it is quite hard to predict which one is better in the future, but i think ETH will dominates the market for a long time because ETH is more popular with investors than XRP.

[bxipp]

ETH and XRP are both famous altcoins and they are the top altcoins that are competing to stand at second place just after BTC, so it is quite hard to predict which one is better in the future, but i think ETH will dominates the market for a long time because ETH is more popular with investors than XRP.

I agree with you. For me personally i will choose ethereum as my main investment cause i use a lot ethereum platform and i think ethereum will stay in top 2 as it more useful than xrp coin.

[BennyK]

XRP is doing well and has got the attention of the UN to integrate it into their operations, however, it needs more improvement in its Blockchain in order to give Ethereum a tight competition. Ethereum is known by many experts as the king of ICOs and father of altcoins because of its unique smart contract which allows projects to mint their new coins on the Ethereum Blockchain.

[Beldon]

Ethereum and Ripple are both good and potentially coin, although I think ethereum is above the ripple, ethereum is still the best altcoin and I'm sure in the future it will grow better and more people will invest in ethereum

[Levyathan]

Both are good collections, but the side of the other, i mean xrp has centralized blockchain, which might get manipulated by the developer and get hacked.

[pinoy.bolanon]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

Comparing both coins, id rather invest the two, remember that having multiple types of coins in the port is way better than having one, so leveraging is still the best strategy.

[IParn]

I also support Ethereum. Because I still think that Ethereum is the most promising and best altcoin. It seems to me that the Ethereum in the future will be an independent coin.

[Krismanto]

XRP has very good potential and has a very good future. I am not so sure whether XRP can replace BTC because BTC always experiences growth and this is the first coin. This is quite interesting because we can see many coins that have good potential to approach Bitcoin.

[gudjhonson]

Both of these coins did try to be on top, and the team's performance was good enough so that the development of the XRP and Eth always seemed to compete. Support from various parties always came so that Eth would not abandon his commitment.

[Distinctin]

XRP has very good potential and has a very good future. I am not so sure whether XRP can replace BTC because BTC always experiences growth and this is the first coin. This is quite interesting because we can see many coins that have good potential to approach Bitcoin.

Replacing BTC is close to impossible, people are here for BTC and for it's decentralization, and XRP is not.
ETH did take the no. 2 spot for months but it was not able to hold it longer, ETH a still decentralized coin take that place and still holding until now.

If you noticed, there's not much growth for XRP thus far, but some altcoins and BTC are doing great.

[manismanja]

Both of these coins did try to be on top, and the team's performance was good enough so that the development of the XRP and Eth always seemed to compete. Support from various parties always came so that Eth would not abandon his commitment.

so choosing both will be better because you choose Altcoin that is good and has great power.
if you have both of these coins, the chances that you get will be even greater, these two coins will try hard to improve because their work team is good so that the future of ETH and XRP will be bright.

[ali115112]

As you know ETH was 2nd position in market since long time and XRP was pass away to ETH but ETH also is now no.2 due to its new POS network launched and XRP may be also best in coming days.

[nitin8263]

I will choose ETH because ETH is the next coin after of bitcoin if you invest in this coin and hold for a long term then you can make a lot of money from this coin in future.

[zolfa]

I will choose eth rather than xrp because eth has a better future, especially eth is ranked second after BTC, so the possibility of replacing BTC is ETH

[jackblacksparrow]

I will choose eth rather than xp because eth has a better future, eth is also ranked second after BTC

Very informative message. Everyone knows that Ethereum is better among the Altcoins, but the fact is that forever it cannot be useful and sooner or later someone will still take its place.

[Bonsaiav]

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

If viewed in terms of system control and values, they have a significant difference especially in terms of speed and transaction processes, while in terms of quality both of them are very feasible for us to rely on because ETH users are broader compared to XRP and XRP also fair skilled in playing its role in the financial sector. Although these two things are striking differences, they also have advantages and disadvantages that can benefit every ETH or XRP user.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

Most likely XRP had the opportunity to occupy that position, but its value could not beat the value of BTC far below $ 20K.

[JuliaJi]

if honest I still dont understand the value of XRP, but I see the greatest value of ETH, which is trading to all currencies and take major place

[Jannyh]

I think these two coins are both good with different use case. In my opinion, I would choose Eth over XRP. Come to think of it, ethereum has gotten more acceptance than xrp, it is even used more and known by so many people unlike xrp.

[Badhuamin]

for now I am still investing in Ethereum and for the future it might be true if Ethereum is very difficult to replace Bitcoin because last year there was a considerable decline and until now it is still difficult to return to normal.

[Bitcoin Miners]

Why we should compare Ethereum and Ripple?
They have very different developmental targets as well as different customer targets.
Ethereum serves for companies, their crowdsales, and is a platform for smartcontracts.
Ripple mainly, by now, serves for financial objectives.

[cryptofirm]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

eth or xrp will never replace bitcoin my friend
because without bitcoin, i think there will be no ethereum or xrp 

then, how did you know if vitalik buterin left from eth,, would you like to give the link about this informations ?

[2Kool4Skewl]

Why we should compare Ethereum and Ripple?
They have very different developmental targets as well as different customer targets.
Ethereum serves for companies, their crowdsales, and is a platform for smartcontracts.
Ripple mainly, by now, serves for financial objectives.

I also think that these two coins should not be compared. Because they are very different and created for different purposes. But they are both suitable for long-term investments.

[yobo2020]

First of all I will like to talk about bitcoin, bitcoin can't be replace by any altcoin at the present moment. ETH and  XRP are both  good investment as far as altcoin is concern but with time from what have been seen XRP will be ahead  ETH  in the market of cryptocurrency .

[Jocuserious]

I think so ETH or XRP any coins will never replace BTC because of the cryptocurrency market it is understood to look at. But yes ETH is a demandfull coin in the crypto market and more volume/supply daily process. I Only accept ETH to invest in ICO and something trading.  

[CandyIzDelicious]

will never happen. bitcoin is the parent of crypto that brings crypto to be popular like this. and people believe the greatest coins are bitcoin, although many other coins have extraordinary developers.

[futureofeth]

I hope investors will concentrate on both these coins because after Bitcoin these two coins are generating very huge volume in the market and even though their prices are very low with the market recovery we can see some changes in terms of prices. When it comes investment i prefer to choose both these two coins because long term investment is always good for both these coins.

[Pejoh Asu]

I think ETH is better and better than Ripple, the thing that makes ETH always be used is the number of tokens that develop the Ethereum platform, so ETH will never die.

[freedomgo]

I think ETH is better and better than Ripple, the thing that makes ETH always be used is the number of tokens that develop the Ethereum platform, so ETH will never die.

Both are good and has the potential, in fact both have already proven they will be develop and we can see that on their value.
ETH so far is just a crowd favorite, but then again if you will just try to analyze, it was XRP who have succeed more than ETH in terms of value.

[CTO@MyBitMine]

Oblviouylsy ETH most promising that XRP. I really don'y understant why people support ripple? It's just a joke coin wich have no future imho. I believe in ETH and Vitalik Buterin, ethereum network was updated , and it will be again. SO what abouy XRP updates?

[kr105]

I’m not a fan of Xrp but i made some money from it because of its volatility in past.
On the other hand, i think ethereum is always most reliable and strong no matter how the current market condition is. I would choose eth in every manner.

[pushups44]

This is an apples and oranges comparison. ETH is a smart contract platform and XRP is a cryptocurrency for cross-border transactions. Both have their niche and should do well.

[John46285]

that's just according to your predictions, if I personally find it difficult for XRP to outperform the market more than bitcoin, that is very unlikely! even ethereum, which has a market capitalization above XRP, not necessarily able to replace bitcoin I don't think that will happen.

I also thinking that there have no altcoins who can overtake Bitcoin. Cause Bitcoin is the mother of all crypto currencies. Xrp and Etherium have good protensial but it’s impossible for  them to replace Bitcoin.     

[Dayan1]

Xrp is not that powerful to be next on bitcoin. It should be eth, ethereum has the volume per transaction largest before btc. So when picking other coin besides btc, eth will be my pick. It was existing in years so would likely to say thats it has already had strong foundation to stand any trouble on the market situation

[gudjhonson]

Both of these coins did try to be on top, and the team's performance was good enough so that the development of the XRP and Eth always seemed to compete. Support from various parties always came so that Eth would not abandon his commitment.

so choosing both will be better because you choose Altcoin that is good and has great power.
if you have both of these coins, the chances that you get will be even greater, these two coins will try hard to improve because their work team is good so that the future of ETH and XRP will be bright.

Exactly, the movements of these two coins are quite good and continue to compete, currently having a value that provides benefits. Although many people think this is a pump, this has already benefited.

[salmonson]

here this forecast makes me happy. I definitely choose ETH

Ethereum Price Prediction 2019 – ETH Price May Touch $1450 In 2019

https://coinswitch.co/news/ethereum-price-prediction-2019-eth-price-to-touch-1450-usd-in-2019-latest-ethereum-news-update

what do you think about this?

[rawdog11]

I don't think XRP is the future.

My presumption is that there will be certain market segments for different coins:
Bitcoin - the original
Litecoin - bitcoins silver, the test network for a lot of development for bitcoin
A privacy coin (like zcash)
A contract coin (like ethereum)

Any other coin thats going to survive will need developers that are actually pushing for new technology.

[trash321]

My answer is ETH and he is categorical, I think and I hope that cryptocurrencies such as ETH will still improve their position in relation to everything and I have nothing left but to just choose ETH as this is the engine.

[begau]

If ETH or XRP can replace Bitcoin, I think the day the crypto market will have a big shock. But this possibility will not happen. Because Bitcoin is the king of the crypto market. Most of us care about the crypto market because of Bitcoin so people will only remember Bitcoin. Because it is the biggest attraction currency, not ETH or XRP can Control the price of altcoins. Only XRP can take second place from ETH.

[Adunni6758]

If XRP can replace ETH, then ETH should be able to replace BTC, which in my opinion is impossible. So what i am saying invariably is that eth and xrp cannt replace btc and eth is better than xrp.

[MMA Rats]

I hold both coins and cannot say that they are bad. Each coin goes its positive side. Depending on where to use it and for what purposes.

[Kulkhan]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

Yes I think XRP Will Make Good For Crypto Market. But Nevar Ever XRP Will Grab The Place Of BTC. Moreover Quantity Of XRP Is Much More. And ETH Is Also A good Currency. It Is Power Full Currency. It Has Huge Potentiallity For Crypto Market. After All BTC Is BTC. I Think Alwyes BTC King Of The Crypto Market.

[Whosdaddy]

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

Most likely XRP had the opportunity to occupy that position, but its value could not beat the value of BTC far below $ 20K.

I’ve never considered XRP for once. And that’s also one of the reasons I have not invested in it. When it comes to anything altcoin, ETH will always be my number one. I have seen a lot coins and projects that claims to be better than ETH and promises to do better, what ETH does, but that still doesn’t change my mind, cause ETH will continue to beat them.

People trade BTC everyday, so how do you think it’s possible that BTC is going to finish and you wouldn’t have any to buy? Lol. IT’S always available, and there are fractions too. No one is buying them to hold them forever. Once they reach their target profit they will withdraw their money from it and sell, those who wants to buy will also buy it. It doesn’t finish.

[CryptoKush]

Ethereum has huge growth potential but Ripple looks more oversold. By this, I think that in the near future Ripple will grow stronger than Ethereum.

[3meek]

I'm sure neither Ethereum not ripple will be able to shift bitcoin from its rightful Royal place! Never!

[needtor22]

XRP and ETH are also good for investment now, because now both price developments are also a lot of hope for better prices, because now prices are also slowly rising in the year

[Ailmand]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

Ethereum replacing bitcoin might not too happen too soon. Bitcoin had gone too far and it is considered as the main currency when speaking of crypto. It is the first crypto to be successful and to grow over thousands times compared it's original price when it was created.

[spngebob]

Ethereum replacing bitcoin might not too happen too soon. Bitcoin had gone too far and it is considered as the main currency when speaking of crypto. It is the first crypto to be successful and to grow over thousands times compared it's original price when it was created.

Ethereum will never replace bitcoin they don't have the same purpose. I think people who think ripple will grow are late investors who have bought it on great 2017. pump and didn't sell it on time, I don't think ripple has good future while ethereum will grow because of coin offerings. Binance and projects collecting money there will have big impact on ethereum price.

[kolnides]

Who can say me what is XRP? Some people says that that’s Ripple token, and some of them told that XRP and Ripple are different organization.

[eagleman]

I'm sure neither Ethereum not ripple will be able to shift bitcoin from its rightful Royal place! Never!

I'm an ethereum fan but yeah it won't get the place of bitcoin.Let's stop this kind of discussion about the exchange of bitcoin's place with any altcoin. It's obvious that not any of them are going to replace it. Bitcoin is the king and most of the altcoins will never replace its place.

[3meek]

And what good is Ethereum? Because he has a lot of shitcoins? Or the fact that it cost $ 1,400? Or the fact that it is very slow? Or his creator Buterin? Or all together? 
No offense, but I don't think Ethereum is the best technology either!

[karma_project]

I'm sure neither Ethereum not ripple will be able to shift bitcoin from its rightful Royal place! Never!

I'm sure of it too. It seems to me that Bitcoin is king. But I think that Ethereum and Ripple are very strong projects that can be of great benefit to all people. Both of these coins are in my investment portfolio now.

[seggardinggins]

I think ETH or XRP is very good and the top 2 coins keep on competing for position 2. I believe that ETH is more dominant as people say and I also believe XRP has a great opportunity. Honestly I prefer ETH but respect each other I prefer to be supported and continue to grow better.

[aan001]

ethereum and ripple are very difficult to replace bitcoin, bitcoin is still king, but if choose between the two coins, of course ethereum remains my choice.

[setialovers]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

If all bitcoin mined, i think the price will very different than now and its must be very expensive. I dont think XRP or ETH will replace bitcoin place in near future because bitcoin still favorite investment.

[zissmieus]

I don't think XPR can be better than ETH. I find that ETH is a good ecosystem and has a lot of support for the crypto community. There is a lot of altcoin on the CMC that is in the ecosystem of ETH and it makes the value of this ecosystem more stable than other altcoin. This is just my own opinion

[yazher]

We will see the result when the market price has increased, Who has a high rise on price means that he will replace the bitcoin. because we can see here that many people are interested in this project, But any of them increases it means good news to all of us. Because we know that investors will be livable and our profits will increase in our Crypto investments..

[coinsycrip09]

If all bitcoin mined, i think the price will very different than now and its must be very expensive. I dont think XRP or ETH will replace bitcoin place in near future because bitcoin still favorite investment.

yeah, that's right.
i think the bitcoin position will not be shifted by any altcoin including XRP or ETH. bitcoin will remain in its place now or in the future.

indeed XRP or ETH is a good altcoin, but both of them still need a long time to pursue the bitcoin position.

[deredevil]

These two coins, which are ethereum and ripple coin, are promising, and certainly both ethereum and ripple are also good developments, but in terms of quality I think ethereum is better than ripple, as the best altcoin ethereum has more appeal than other altcoin, but of course each altcoin has its own supporters as well as ethereum and ripple

[freedomgo]

If all bitcoin mined, i think the price will very different than now and its must be very expensive. I dont think XRP or ETH will replace bitcoin place in near future because bitcoin still favorite investment.

yeah, that's right.
i think the bitcoin position will not be shifted by any altcoin including XRP or ETH. bitcoin will remain in its place now or in the future.

indeed XRP or ETH is a good altcoin, but both of them still need a long time to pursue the bitcoin position.

As these altcoins will increase its adopting, bitcoin will also the same, so the chance BTC will be replace is very low.
We enjoy seeing it this way, then we should get used to this ranking, as long as the entire market is growing we can call it a good competition.

[C0964772022]

Tks for share

[aziziasa]

I use both of these coins to invest. So the two coins, in my opinion, are very good coins and very worthy to have. Now Ethereum and XRP are increasing again, this is influenced by the increase in Bitcoin. I continue to hope that this coin can continue to soar.

[LimLims]

If you ask me to choose any one from these awesome coins,  then i will definitely go for ETH or Ethereum.
There are many reasons for which i have choose this coin on XRP.
Eth is much more older than XRP.  Also if you see then the price of ETH is also way more than XRP.
Moreover ETH is also known to many people and they feel themselves secure anf safe when they invest in this coin.
Also the stable nature of the coin binds me to choose Ethereum over Ripple.
Hope you get it.

[Vaskiy]

Ethereum is the only altcoin that has given hard competence to the bitcoin in the dominance level. With comparison to ethereum XRP isn't that progressive. XRP has got the potential to serve in the banking system much and upon the same it is much into adoption by more centralized financial services. Ethereum serves as the base for more altcoins making it more stronger.

[dmty.0809]

It could be that XRP beats ETH. Because XRP entered 2019 with the third rank, which was taken over by Ethereum. XRP has been ranked second for the past few months. The increase in Ethereum was driven by updates to Constantinople, dropping XRP from second place.
Ripple continues to collaborate with banks and financial institutions throughout the world.

[celot]

Buy eth right now because price have grow up and before too late getting much profit with your investment in eth, better investing with eth than you have buy or invest your money in ripple or XRP because ripple too late for growing up to higher price.

[bysmf2000]

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

no both them will be replace bitcoin position, because bitcoin is the populars than eth and xrp and all people interested at bitcoin

[freedomgo]

Buy eth right now because price have grow up and before too late getting much profit with your investment in eth, better investing with eth than you have buy or invest your money in ripple or XRP because ripple too late for growing up to higher price.

At the range now, there's plenty of chances to grow, profit can be achieve even at a short period of time.
ETH below $200 is very cheap, we are here because of the price correction that happened almost in the entire 2018, but the market has started
a recovery now, we shouldn't doubt it, we have to spot this as an opportunity.

[bitcoinisbest]

Buy eth right now because price have grow up and before too late getting much profit with your investment in eth, better investing with eth than you have buy or invest your money in ripple or XRP because ripple too late for growing up to higher price.

Investing in both would be ideal and both coins have a great potential to grow in coming time . So one should not be missing this opportunity to invest in crypto and this coins as it would give you multiple time return in coming months and help you grow money .

[hahahafr]

Neither ETH nor XRP would replace BTC and for your information don't forget that the lesser the amount of BTC in circulation the higher the price and i believe everybody in here would love to see BTC way above $20k. No cryptocurrency can ever usurp the dominancy and authority of bitcoin over the crypto market. Bitcoin rules people just accept it!

[Stella_btc]

Ethereum and ripple both coins are top Coins  but These two Coins are fighting for the second and third place in the coinmarketcap. But everything can possible in cryptomarket because these two Coins has high potential and very bright future.Why choose one thing if you can choose everything at once? The ethereum and ripple have their own tasks, and each of them is good in its own way. I like both, so in my portfolio there are coins of both projects. I also want to note that investing in a ETH is now much more pleasant than on XRP due to the fact that the ETH grows in price better.

[Viper_Unleashed]

Well considering the market cap and price i wont say anything.Both have different uses and of course using ripple for payments and cross border transfers it is very much superior to ETH.Also the time taken and fees is very less in ripple.But seeing the bigger picture I will always go with ETH as many other people will.Ripple cannot be mined and also has a private ownership.And if price of ripple rises then again monopoly will prevail and then the whole concept of crypto or what we can say financial freedom will be at stake.

[glendall]

it's difficult to determine which is good between ETH and XRP,
if I personally have to choose from one of them, then I prefer ETH because eth is pure from the source code made by vitalics, and also the ETH fundamentals in my opinion are better than XRP.

[nreal]

Why do you only think that ETH and XRP can replace BTC, There are many coins that are also very useful to replace BTC

[FuryBeast]

Is that possible to compare that two at all? nonsense, the same we can't compare ETH to btc. Way too different use cases.

[sjbi]

I think XRP has already beaten ethereum, albeit for a short period. It will be very much difficult to pick a coin between ripple and ethereum to me as both has a promising future and very much potential coins besides bitcoin. The team of ripple is very much active and dynamic which is making its every effort to make the project a success. And ethereum is also equally good. But my tilt is more towards ripple.

[rose9696]

Banks will not be able to compete with developing technology businesses. crypto is a new phenomenon but XRP is still a bank. The bank can only keep stable profits on a quarterly basis and it cannot have breakthroughs. because it is also subject to the control of central banks.
ETH is still my top choice. XRP is a big business but it will not be comparable to ETH in the crypto market.

[Cellerex]

ETH is still my top choice. XRP is a big business but it will not be comparable to ETH in the crypto market.

It seems to me that these coins are completely different in my meaning and purpose. Not quite correct to compare them. There are many projects that claim to be Ethereum. Like for example NEO, Cardano, Tera Smart Money. Or who will offer to the place of Bitcoin - Bitcoin Cash, Sound Money Coin.
And Ripple has his own check position and he has no direct competitors.

[indoagung88]

I am more optimistic that Ethereum will replace Bitcoin, if the inventory runs out. Even though Vitalik has left, that is not an excuse for all of us to leave Ethereum. According to my analysis, there will continue to be good growth. Will never die.

[OrangeII]

I am more optimistic that Ethereum will replace Bitcoin, if the inventory runs out. Even though Vitalik has left, that is not an excuse for all of us to leave Ethereum. According to my analysis, there will continue to be good growth. Will never die.

I like your optimism, but it is a very difficult thing to wait for now. well, even though the XRP has replaced the ETH several times, however, ETH has taken it again. in this matter, I think it's very clear who is better.

[OrangeSeller]

XRP is still very far away if it will replace BTC and may be difficult to occur. But XRP is a coin that is very potential and able to compete with ETH. XRP has become the number two coin after passing ETH. And I'm sure if in a few months XRP can pump.

Same here man. I though it is about a suggestion whether to invest in Bitcoin or ETH but it turned out something else. I do not believe that Bitcoin is so weak that it will let ETH or ripple outshine it. The appreciation in the market value of the Bitcoin these days is very positive and besides the price rise, there is the market problem that had been a very big problem and Bitcoin is solving that problem so I think that ETH and XRP still need to cover a long distance to reach Bitcoin.

[3meek]

Are you sane? How can you even think of such a question? Bitcoin is one and only! No one will be able to shift it, otherwise the entire market will come to an end!

[Hiralbaria97]

No way....Eth is the best.threre will no use case of bitcoin.eth will be more powerfull than other cryptocurrencies.
Ethereum’s smart contract feature is crowdfunding through ICO’s,with hundreds of multi-million dollar ICO’s having taken place on the Ethereum blockchain.
These ICO’s lead to the birth of new cryptocurrencies which use Ether to pay for transaction fees, raising demand for Ethereum’s cryptocurrency.

[burky155]

I really don't understand that why people compare with the Ethereum and Ripple. For me the ETH is the most strong altcoin by far because many altcoins using it's platform. And i am sure that lots of people would agree with me on my idea. XRP surpassed ETH twice on marketcap but i believe that will be never again..

[PROdotBITCOIN]

I am sure that Eth is a very strong coin. But it seems to me that ripple has great prospects. But I am fully confident that none of these coins will be able to crowd out Bitcoin. Most of my investment capital is in bitcoin.

[digitalblock]

Both of these coins are very good and strong. I can't highlight a favorite and so invested in ETH and a bit in XRP

[pandanaran]

Both of these coins are very good and strong. I can't highlight a favorite and so invested in ETH and a bit in XRP

Yes, I'm sure everyone knows that these two coins are very strong and of high quality, this often happens in ETH and XRP competitions in taking 2nd place in the market but ETH is still more feasible. I will definitely try to invest in both but more than I put my money into ETH.

[stoat]

I am sure that Eth is a very strong coin. But it seems to me that ripple has great prospects. But I am fully confident that none of these coins will be able to crowd out Bitcoin. Most of my investment capital is in bitcoin.

that just means you're quite stupid not to be all in ETH

[stoat]

Both of these coins are very good and strong. I can't highlight a favorite and so invested in ETH and a bit in XRP

you wasted money you could have put in ETH on silly ripples. don't you look rather stupid.

[truongdhnh]

There are so many questions that Ripple and ETH will be better. I think they are a match for each other. Because ETH is just behind Bitcoin but many times Ripple has passed ETH and boss after Bitcoin on coinmarketcap. But ETH still shows it is a coin that people deserve to invest after Bitcoin so ETH still beat Ripple. This race is very long in the future. Ripple is hard to beat because Bitcoin is the symbol for the right crypto which the most force in the crypto market.

[eagleman]

I'm sure neither Ethereum not ripple will be able to shift bitcoin from its rightful Royal place! Never!

I'm an ethereum fan but yeah it won't get the place of bitcoin.Let's stop this kind of discussion about the exchange of bitcoin's place with any altcoin. It's obvious that not any of them are going to replace it. Bitcoin is the king and most of the altcoins will never replace its place.

No offense, but I don't think Ethereum is the best technology either!

We are talking simply about ethereum and I don't care with those ERC20 tokens though some of them became successful and remarkable.Ethereum is slow? okay.
It's your opinion and nothing wrong against that because it's your opinion. 

[Bustart]

Both of these coins are very good and strong. I can't highlight a favorite and so invested in ETH and a bit in XRP

you wasted money you could have put in ETH on silly ripples. don't you look rather stupid.

Losing money at first with ripple is not by daily basis, but rather temporary while crypto market wasn't recovering yet. For sure eth has strong market capacity compared to riplle itself, and the holders of it continued to support this coins because of good platform. We will once this coin surpassed the bearsh trend, and we finally said it was a wrong decision to make.

[Huntler1993]

In terms of the price I think ether will be best to replace BTC as its likely to  get closer to BTC if there is the need for any replacemt. XRP although not bad but I don't see it as a right substitute for BTC. Only time will tell

[Globen]

Most times I wonder why the comparison,  ethereum and XRP  both have different use case.  In my opinion I would say or choose Ethereum, this is because aside it 's use case, it has gained more polularity and acceptance . You can find it in almost all crypto exchanges. It has more users, with time, the value of the token will be very high, because there will be more demand

[Catmurs]

In terms of the price I think ether will be best to replace BTC as its likely to  get closer to BTC if there is the need for any replacemt. XRP although not bad but I don't see it as a right substitute for BTC. Only time will tell

The fact that he will replace it hardly , I think Ethereum is on the 2nd place at the moment , the coin is good, but it certainly falls in the service due to ieo

[Dreamchaser21]

Both of these coins are very good and strong. I can't highlight a favorite and so invested in ETH and a bit in XRP

That’s better because no matter how much I hate XRP, is till have this coin because i know i have to diversified my investment. Both are good but I’m holding more ETH compare to XRP but I’m planning to increase my XRP holdings while its price are still cheap.

[3meek]

Lol, people! You would have BCHABC and BSHSV considered as candidates!  Or Gold and Private!

[Dr.Sponge]

Even if ethereum had so much little left on its supply, it would take so many times until the ethereum blockchain filled since there is an ethereum block halving.

[Wipangga]

I think I will definitely have ETH, because ETH is also a good coin and is also very popular nowadays, because the price development now also starts to increase in the future.

[jaywizzy]

That's is just a mere prediction that  bitcointalk will run out of the market and if this eventually happen is likely for XRP to take over because XRP has a promising future than ETH.

[wenwen]

I don't think XRP is a better investment than ETH. Because the cryptocurrency is experiencing a lot of difficulty with misinformation on Twitter with the regulator, USA. Therefore, the founder of this crypto currency has to go to various tricks not to get into the field of view of financial authorities. And it's all very bad for the position of Ripple in the market.

[george_hured]

In such a comparison, I think you need to make a choice in favor of the ETH project, because there is a very high probability that it will be ETH that will continue to work on developing new projects.

[Wittny]

I don't see any coin representing BTC as we all know Btc is the foundation of cryptocurrency, such project collapsing is what I don't see happening but incase it later happen, I predict it will be ETH and not XRP

[Toraynt]

I often trade on exchanges and in this respect ETH looks more interesting than XRP, because Ripple is not very volatile than ETH

[3meek]

Ethereum has a problem with scaling! And it will sell projects that did fees in it!
I won't say anything about ripple...

[2Kool4Skewl]

As for me ethereum is the most popular and promising coin. Because she can really generate income and she has a very good team that works on this quality.

[styca]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

I don't think either ETH or XRP are direct competitors with BTC; they offer different use cases.
I am confident that both ETH and XRP will be big successes in their respective roles, however a $20k price per XRP seems impossible - you have to bear in mind supply as well as coin price, that is why marketcap is the most important measurement.
Perhaps ETH and XRP can overtake BTC in marketcap, but to do so in individual coin price seems a huge stretch for ETH and nearly impossible for XRP.

[Fedrey]

As for me ethereum is the most popular and promising coin. Because she can really generate income and she has a very good team that works on this quality.

Since users of cryptocurrency are looking for the best coins for investment or the best among competitors. If we consider ethereum and pulsations, the exchange of coins is the best for investment, but it can not be competitors, since they have completely different functions in the cryptocurrency market.

[Mr.Noda]

I think that the ether will be a less risky investment in the long run.

[Vaskiy]

Every user know that ethereum or XRP is not gonna compete with bitcoin to take its position. Ethereum is the one that has got a potential base which too is serving majority of the cryptocurrency into usage. It has got the scaling issue, but the same will be sought. XRP from my view is good with centralized system and I prefer ethereum over XRP and other altcoins.

[Kelvinikke]

First of all btc is going to remain the most widely used cryptocurrency and even though the circulation amount has actually reduced due to some folks losing their private keys to their wallets. In spite of this all i don't think neither ETH nor XRP can take up the position of bitcoin and the coin which is likely to replace BTC would be Ethereum and not Ripple.

[Evrolina]

I doubt if XRP can take the place of BTC because many are still skeptical about XRP,i think ETH is a better choice to XRP.

[FuryBeast]

XRP is the fastest crypto, and it's now in accumulation phase, like almost everything in the market. No shade of doubt ETH and XRP are worthwhile cryptos. But XRP is mostly a means of payment, while ETH is a home for smart contracts.

[3meek]

Ripple looks like Microsoft Excel in cryptocurrency!
Are you considering these two projects only because of the largest capitalization?

[BCTS]

Are you serious? Your suggestions look like a joke, what you write does not give any explanation and obviously you just want XRP dominated the market. But look at the amount of XRP tokens, learn what the coin is used for and then compare it with the BTC again. In my opinion, it is obvious that XRP will never be able to seriously compete with Bitcoin.

[dipeco]

XRP is not a real crypto currency and in my opinion does not belong to be here. This coin does not have a limited supply and it is centralised. On the other hand they are doing a lot of great work to near the mass adoption, but I would prefer ETH without any doubt.

no doubt. XRP cannot replace Bitcoin. i think it is ETH. XRP is a highly concentrated coin. its company occupies most of the coins. ETH has built a vast ecosystem. Many altcoins are built on the ETH platform.

[BurstBurst]

For the better ethereum because their community is bigger and the quantity is supporting and the price of ethereum is just as good as bitcoin so it's good to invest in altcoins for me because their price is fast rising but still be aware of your purchase altcoins to not steal your money on xrp or ripple this token is also good and really longterm and also its community and not just dropping the price of their token because of the amount of holders and too many buyers and none too dumpers I noticed that even if the price drop bitcoin would not be too much to affect the price of xrp.

[steveabrahams]

no doubt. XRP cannot replace Bitcoin. i think it is ETH. XRP is a highly concentrated coin. its company occupies most of the coins. ETH has built a vast ecosystem. Many altcoins are built on the ETH platform.

ETH also cannot replace bitcoin too. Both XRP and ETH are good altcoin but mostly people use ETH because of that ERC-20 tokens and other alts that using ethereum platform, like when you send altcoins you need eth for the fees. XRP is good too but mostly for trading imo.

[Dannev]

If I need stability and safety I will choose XRP, but if I need high profits I will choose ETH. 2018 shows the stability of XRP, but that means less profit.

I prefer both coins both in stability and profit. I made some trades on both and really happy how it turned out.

[B.]

this year if ethereum can be above then he will be able to defeat ethereum by increasing the price again if xpp is only in the field of stability and security so it does not make people bring big profits if you choose etehreum you can of course later this year we will see who will win.

well, XRP is a really good coin. if XRP has the same function as ETH, it might be dangerous for ETH. several times XRP transactions are bigger than ETH. however, people's trust in ETH is increasing every day.

[pics4crypto]

I very often supported ethereum. It is very popular and has grown rapidly in recent times. As for me, he is the best among the altcoins. But it should also be noted that competitors such as ripple and EOS do not allow it to move on.

[unbotak]

I very often supported ethereum. It is very popular and has grown rapidly in recent times. As for me, he is the best among the altcoins. But it should also be noted that competitors such as ripple and EOS do not allow it to move on.

I also strongly support Ethereum because it is a very good coin, even the best among Altcoin because it has a very large community and a very large volume of transactions so it has more potential to continue to grow better among other coins.

[trash321]

In this comparison today, I hope that XRP is a really, very, very cool project that pushes into all possible areas of cryptocurrency projects. I hope that today cryptocurrencies will have really steep horizons.

[3meek]

He-he... It seems Vitalik once again went crazy!
Think with bitconnect was something like that!
Coincidence?

[Boombull]

I will choose XRP before Ethereum because of the its more wider acceptance by institutions outside cryptocurrency industry. Though Ethereum is a platform that first of sll bring the dream of smart contracts into reality but there are many more better platforms now and I think ETH will find it very difficult to out-innvoate them.

[Wong Gendheng]

As for me ethereum is the most popular and promising coin. Because she can really generate income and she has a very good team that works on this quality.

It is difficult to find other coins such as ethereum, this is because ethereum is like open source that allows anyone to develop ethereum, and now it is evident from the success of hundreds of ethereum based tokens.

[harrypotpot]

Ethereum has returned to its original position, which is number two after bitcoin. For me, staying at ethereum is the right choice. I am sure ethereum will immediately fix itself if there is a decline in value.

Well basically the market of Ethereum is just better than XRP when we will going to look about the certain matter. Vitalik is very well known, and I don't even know who is the creator of Ripple. Though I have knowledge about it but not that big enough to say that Ripple is better than ETH.

What I want to imply here is that, we, the people who knows how good ethereum is, will be the proof that ethereum is better than XRP.

[Bitcotalk]

It could be that XRP beats ETH. Because XRP entered 2019 with the third rank, which was taken over by Ethereum. XRP has been ranked second for the past few months. The increase in Ethereum was driven by updates to Constantinople, dropping XRP from second place.
Ripple continues to collaborate with banks and financial institutions throughout the world.

Nah, ETH is better than XRP and will always be better than it.

Yes, I do know that Ripple took that second position earlier this year (or was it ending of last year ) but that didn’t even take long as Ethereum was able to get back to that position within a short time. Like you said, Constantinople led to ETH increase back to the second position, okay good. Ripple wouldn’t have had that chance if not for the same Constantinople.

[bitcon]

I very often supported ethereum. It is very popular and has grown rapidly in recent times. As for me, he is the best among the altcoins. But it should also be noted that competitors such as ripple and EOS do not allow it to move on.

I do not have any doubt that Ethereum is the better choice. You can choose between it and Ripple or any other virtual currency, the answer will be the same - invest in ETH. Additionally, Ripple is centralized, and I am concerned about it.

[zeze18]

BTC supplies only 21 million, and now there are 3 or 4 million BTC in the system. even though there is a little more BTC, we will also find it difficult to get BTC. then, it will take a long time. 2024 or 2026 are predicted that BTC supplies will run out.

we have to think about the prospect of the crypto world in the future, until today BTC has a function to stabilize the crypto world, but what happened if supplies BTC runs out? is there another crypto that can stabilize and maintain the existence of the crypto market?

I think ETH or XRP will replace BTC. but my prediction XRP will dominate the market more than ETH, I doubt to ETH after the vitalik left from ETH. on the other hand, XRP always develops its platform every time.

how do you think, will the XRP replace BTC and has a very high value of $ 20K like BTC in 2017?

XRP is centralized cryptocurreny so the price won't jump to the moon.
So for me, ETH has more potential in price growth , also the demand of ETH is higher than XRP

[IParn]

If you choose only with these two coins. Then I prefer ethereum. As for me, it is more perspective and profitable than ripple.

[andreizver]

No, I don't think that Ethereum or XRP will replave BTC. Bitcoin always will be crypto number one. Second position is place for Ethereum. I think that this crypto is most useful on market and has a lot of new good innovations and products.

[integrity42]

If you choose only with these two coins. Then I prefer ethereum. As for me, it is more perspective and profitable than ripple.

XRP is a very strange coin for me, because it is on the market very high and very little traded, what is the point of it, if it is used mainly by banks, I also choose ETH

[jan.nicolas]

ETH in any case will be a much larger project for improving the cryptocurrency infrastructure. I am sure that there are people who recognize XRP as a good project, but I think that ETH is our wealth while it works.

[Em00n01]

I will definitely take ETH. It is more potential than XRP. People have trust on it and it is mosty used by ICO. So the demand of ETH will increase day by day.

[Spaffin]

No, I think ripple will never replace bitcoin. This is not the coin that can become the leader of cryptocurrency. Also ripple will not be allowed to the level of popularity ethereum. Recently, ripple has overtaken ethereum several times in terms of capitalization. However, now ethereum is ahead of ripple in terms of capitalization of five billion dollars.

[Impaler]

Ethereum and XRP, they both are very good and revolutionary for this whole blockchain and crypto ecosystem. Ethereum is one of the first platform based token. And now they are most used platform. And XRP is used for money transfer and banking realated staff. The problem is they are very different form each other so their is nothing to compare between them. The only thing they are fighting for is the market cap and the market position. For market is in deep the price of this token is very cheap. So those who invest in this kind of coin now they will surely give some profit in upcoming days. Cause as a project they are very good. Just hold whatever you get.

[freedomgo]

I will definitely take ETH. It is more potential than XRP. People have trust on it and it is mosty used by ICO. So the demand of ETH will increase day by day.

If ICO will revive it's popularity again, maybe it would be a great help for ETH to rise again, until such, ETH will struggle to rise like it did in the past.
Though ETH is good and trusted more compared to XRP but XRP is undeniably one of the most profitable coin to invest.

[3meek]

Both of these projects are working and promising, but no one can move bitcoin from the first place!

[BitBustah]

The circulating supply is deceiving, majority is held by their foundation and a lot of wash trading is going on with XRP.  Ripple isn't something I would buy for a long term investment but it may pay off to swing trade it during this next bull run.  It has a lot of hype so it may do another 10x and reach 3 dollars once again but that is the time to dump it.

[trauchot]

Both altcoins will not give up their positions and will constantly fight for the most popular altcoin after bitcoin, so we should expect incredible technologies from both altcoins that both teams are already working on, so in the future these altcoins will grow in price and demand for them will constantly increase and we should not choose between them, it is best to invest in both altcoins.

[cryptocompares]

To date, I don't see the benefits of xrp other than the speed of transactions. But this is not true, the velocity of the eth is enough for our market and judging by the rumors, soon eth will solve this problem.

[chaoscoinz]

Come on, this is an easy one,I think it's Ethereum. Ethereum has the super big Dapp support, soon to be POS and is Bitcoin 2.0. Ethereum took the resourcefulness of Bitcoin and made it better. Etheum basically laid the foundation work for similar projects like it. I remeber when ethereum was first being sold, I skipped over it because I didn't understand it's use-case. I understrood what a smart contract was, but didn't see the bigger picture. I felt like I missed the second coming of christ, when it mooned.

this can never happen,  eth nor xrp can can surpass btc. There is a huge margin between this two alternate coins and btc.

[e@symode]

ETH is still, in my opinion, probably one of the most used projects, so I think that there are no options at all and I think that there is an opportunity to invest in XRP today, despite the fact that prices are still high.

[Pamadar]

Both altcoins will not give up their positions and will constantly fight for the most popular altcoin after bitcoin, so we should expect incredible technologies from both altcoins that both teams are already working on, so in the future these altcoins will grow in price and demand for them will constantly increase and we should not choose between them, it is best to invest in both altcoins.

Whatever interpretation you have it's your decision to make, investment wise both coins are inside the top crypto inside CMC which can be a good idea that both coins will be there staying behind Bitcoin, each time bull comes up chances that both coins will be lifted and increase it's Fiat value, so holding both will be a good option.

First of all I don't think bitcoin. would run out due to the fact that it could be mined besides there is also currency exchange occurs in market. With regard on who is more profircient between the two is I would go on ETH because it is more becoming more popular day by day due to widely used of ICO's that could make it more attractive. However, XRP is undeniably good to invest as well thus it will make it a close battle but Regardless of that I don't think they could surpass the BTC.

[rachman mahesa]

Why is there always a comparison between altcoins one with the other altcoins. For example ETH and XRP, of course these two altcoins have their own communities. Excellence and benefits are certainly different. Why must be compared. What do you get from comparing these two altcoins?

[3meek]

He-he! Vitalik Buterin one of the first stood in waiting lists on recieving free ripple!

[leetcoiner]

He-he! Vitalik Buterin one of the first stood in waiting lists on recieving free ripple!

Q.E.D.  As for me, this is a very high figure.  Ripple is a very strong and self-sufficient coin.  I am sure that in the future she will definitely succeed.

[tisoysoy]

These both coins really had potential and its been a long years live in crypto. Now as you can see they're still stand and try to recover from what they had lose last year but, i dont think they were comparable into bitcoin because we all knows bitcoin has come long way and bitcoin is the first blockchain and the first who made a history that reached $20,000, so for me, nothing bets bitcoin.

[Akoldi_ibk]

Let us settle this part first; no coin has the establishment enough to replace bitcoin. The only coin that still come close is ETH. Yes, Ripple team are constantly working on their platform and likewise the ethereum developers are on their toes to make their platform better as well. These are two separate blockchain with different use case. I believe they can both thrive in their respective ecosystem.

[sergei1703]

Believe only in Ethereum. I don't hate xrp, but it is not my favourite coin. Just because it is not a true decentralised cryptocurrency like Ethereum.

[freedomgo]

Believe only in Ethereum. I don't hate xrp, but it is not my favourite coin. Just because it is not a true decentralised cryptocurrency like Ethereum.

I don't think they also claim they are decentralized coin.
XRP compared to ETH is more successful, that is solely based on the price history, but then it's up to the investors what coin they will choose.

[Nickz46]

For me I rather and will definitely choose ETH. Because its has more potential than XRP. People have trust on it and it was the most commonly used by ICO. So with this case, the demand of ETH will increase day by day. And you will be more be benefited through passing days of investing in the market.
