ETH

[CryptoKush]

Ethereum have a very large potential and much depends on Ethereum in this market. I hope that he will be able to withstand this bear market and will prove its strength.

shitcoins like ethereum can't solve their own limited functionality and the backdoors they have let alone attempt at bigger more serious stuff that bitcoin is dealing with

Calling the #2 crypto a shitcoin? come on......

Just being objective here, what about that inflation bug in bitcoin that was luckily discovered by a bitcoin cash developer?   That could of spelled disaster for btc.

Maybe he's a bitcoin maximalist and thinks everything but bitcoin is a shitcoin. There are good altcoin projects and ETH brought to the space something that BTC wasn't giving. This is the reason for its popularity. There are coins that are expanding the space and giving something more like Monero with its privacy. The real shitcoins are coins that only leach popularity out of another coin without improving like BCH or BSV.

bitcoin does not have limited functionality. it has the functionality that it is supposed to have and it is fulfilling them as it is supposed to. saying otherwise is like saying "my vacuum cleaner has limited functionality because it doesn't also cook dinner for me"!

Well yea, that was my point. That bitcoin was made to be a product/project with a specific purpose(payments and SoV), rather than unnecessarily trying to do many things at once like other coins/tokens.

If the Altcoin doesn't exist, will Bitcoin die or not work. I think Bitcoin is still running even though there is no Altcoin. Bitcoin was born with a very good concept. Can function to make transactions with other objects at the USD exchange rate.

[crossabdd]

not only ethereum, some other altcoins like that. has an effort to replace the limited functional Bitcoin. Like BCH, BTG, waves, LTC. etc. but it won't be able to change bitcoin. because all of their technology is adopting Bitcoin technology. so he altcoin was born from the bitcoin network, namely blockchain.

Maximalists are mad that just because they're limiting their own coin, they think others should do the same. ETH is bravely pushing forward, and yes - it increases the chance of a disaster, but if one doesn't happen there's no reason why ETH shouldn't overtake a coin that provides less utility than itself.

Oh boy. Have you not heard of the DAO hack[1] and the parity lock[2]? I'm not a hater of ethereum, but long term? These few problems are just the tip of the iceberg.

Let me laugh at what you said. Bitcoin is just lucky to be the first on the line that’s what it makes its price dominating and aside from that a lot of people are still confused using it. Ethereum transactions can be confirmed for only 20 seconds while BTC takes 10 minutes, so which is the best for you? lol

[fuer44]

it can happen, starting from Etherum as the Smart contract ICO, which allows Etherum to be the main platform of the token tokens. and maybe it could be a platform for a product in the future. we just wait for the development of this etherum.

Every alternative projects are also aiming doing the same, not alone and limited with ETH, as dealing with bitcoin as the based crypto every project
needs to bring something new and improvements with what bitcoin already delivers, let it be if that's the reality but competitions along with many
promising projects will be the questions of such success.

ETH always tailing bitcoin, improvements and other functionalities will change the tempo of success.

You do realize that speed isn't the only benchmark right? You're ignoring decentralization and actual security. If speed is the only thing you're going to look at anyway, then go use PayPal. Also taking note that Ether isn't even actually made for payments so ETH and BTC aren't even direct competitors.

[Colan Zolo]

Indeed Vitalik strives to be able to complete the boundary function and this is a good thing and we must support the development of crypto in the future. If bitcoin does not yet provide security limits, Eth will endeavor to do so. We will see whether Vitalik's efforts will succeed and crypto will be bright in the future. So the bitcoin journey will go hand in hand with Eth to develop together.

Well, now many are trying to solve the problems of the functionality of the ETH. This is not when technology will not stop developing further.

Indeed, ethereum foundation is looking for the new developers to create the next development and research for ethereum. we know that ethereum tries so many things that getting plagiarized by another platform.

[audyearls]

Yes, it could be true, because we also cannot predict it in the future, but I believe that in the future ethereum will develop better and more supporters will come to this coin

i don't believe on it since bitcoin still have more support than ETH. But yes ethereum still have a power to recover as we noticed previously during the bump of price which is it has a big average than bitcoin .but for me even though the potential is higher there's always no tends for it to replace bitcoin and it will remain second option .

Never think about technology behind Ethereum. But as long it can make people buy it, i will still hold. For crypto i am actually never think about technology behind it. So i just do like what traders do.

Shitcoin or not, it helped cryptocurrency adoption to some extent, no ethereum, no ICOs, no developments in cryptocurrency world (ICOs helped whether you believe it or not).

But ethereum is not a currency whereas bitcoin is. When these are all 2 complete different thing, how one could solve the other's limited functionality ? Even there will be a possibility for that, I could not understand why not bitcoin can do that with another BIP enhancement ? I mean if there will be a solution for bitcoin's issue then within bitcoin itself devs will implement that and no need of ethereum to be a test-rat here.

ICO is here before ethereum was announced. All altcoins are doing the work of promotions of cryptos to new people hence there will be no surprises ethereum too joining that big list. The hard pumps etehreum is the only differences from rest of altcoins.

You are right, even the other Alts have potential to replace the functional Bitcoin. If we compare with BTC then these Alts will not be a real competitor without any doubt when it's comes to functioning and I hope ETH is focussing on its new development  to beat BTC.

[silver23]

What you mean ?

Is not right i think, Ethereum is good Coin yes that is right.
But, limited Bitcoin supply is something that make BTC is greatest than other coin.
