LiteCoin or ETHEREUM? Best Investment option.

[Cnut237]

After Bitcoin, LiteCoin & ETHEREUM made my shortlist for an investment option.

ETHEREUM - My Main concern is Supply is a little bit high & Price is already over $150 which is -1 point against LiteCoin.

LiteCoin - supply is less than 64M & price well under $70.

Which one you would choose for long term invest & Why?

I would go with ETH because it has the most potential of any alt out there (in my opinion). Smart contracts can transform the way that the economy functions. It is one of the strongest use cases that crypto has.

As an aside, I don't understand the direct price comparison that people make sometimes, e.g. coin A costs £50 but coin B costs $100, so coin A is better to buy. Not sure if you're making this point here, but I don't get it. The price of a coin means nothing without also considering its supply. As an extreme example, if coin A above has a supply of 1 billion coins, but coin B has a supply of 1 million, that makes the $50 coin A huge, whilst coin B is the low cap underdog that offers the potential for growth. Switch marketcap the other way, and positions reverse. Price alone means very little.

ETH is a good altcoin that is attracting a lot of long-term investors.  Litecoin has not yet asserted itself in the market, only following the big brother BTC but still not having the safety to investors.  ETH always innovates, making investors more interested in reducing transaction costs to compete with the market.

When we do talk about entire token supply and its price aren't really that different yet it would really be still have the same adjustments when it comes to price.
The important matter here is the community support because even the supply is huge it doesn't really that matter.

Choosing between ETH and LTC? I will definitely go for ETH same as yours due to smart contract thing but it isn't bad either to put up some dollars in LTC.

I will choose ETH over and over again because many projects depend on ETH blockchain hence it's relevance. Also, ETH foundation has been doing everything possible to revamp ETHEREUM blockchain architecture, reason why ETH 2.0 upgrade will be launched (a move from POW to POS consensus algorithm). Let's see what the future holds for both (ETH and LTC) anyway, this is just my opinion.

[Buntel168]

I will suggest you to choose ETH, you can see the chart in recent days. The price increase from $180 to $214 and i think the price will countinues to rise.

Ethereum is much better than Bitcoin. right now I am investing and am collecting Ethereum, Bitcoin and Binance Coin

I'm not saying Litecoin isn't profitable, it's just that I prefer short-term investments, whereas Litecoin is a long-term investment coin

I will always choose ETH above LiteCoin. Over 70% of blockchain projects are running on top of ETH blockchain infrastructure. So, if it is for long-time investment, then ETH is preferable for me most especially when they have Sharding in the pipeline to implement in ETH 2.0

this also makes Ethereum far better than Litecoin

It's not about how much platform that runs on ethereum blockchain as its parent platform. The fact that ethereum has more utility usage compared with security token like litecoin. that makes sense to owned more ethereum rather than litecoin.
ETH 2.0 is not yet begin and again the price of ethereum and litecoin were going down sharply.
ETH is much better and sharding is nothing compared with its utility usage that makes ethereum can't be considered as security.

[Gridness]

Choosing ethereum as an investment long term for me is a good choice if investing in Litecoin. Because many people use Ethereum, so I will choose ethereum

I would definitely choose Litecoin. because their supply is low and the price is also much cheaper than ETH. Besides, the halving event has not much impact on its price yet, we can expect LTC x2 in the next bull run of the market!

[prehisto]

From the current situation, ETH technically looks the best , it has hold its recent gains and therefore could go even higher very soon.
LTC has not done anything much lately. But from other side, LTC in my mind is better choice.

- Do not let the mind influence or fool your thoughts, we should know that this is a place to invest, every decision needs to start from basic to advanced analysis and you gave a very basic analysis, litecoin has not had too much change recently, a peaceful trend and not seeing a great profit in the near future. While ethereum is taking a rather attractive and striking comeback, combined with eth's long-term silence, this could be the start of a major boom in the near future, eth is probably the option that brings more opportunities

Litecoin has the possibility for higher price increases when mass adoptions occur in the market. but if it is not possible halving that happens will not have so much impact on the price.
whereas if you look at the ETH situation it is possible that there is even a high possibility that there will be an increase when looking at market conditions that are better, especially later will be supported by ethereum 2.0 updates.
but it is all just a basic analysis, there are still many possibilities that can occur and affect how the condition of LTC and ETH assets in the future.

I am the complete opposite here and I will always choose Litecoin over Ethereum. And this is only on the basis of price not of value.

I was recently convinced otherwise about ETH (It took me long time to get over the DAO incident) but even for the value I see it,,, I am afraid the price will always be under pressure unlike LTC that can always grow as silver does.

People will be having difference of opinion based on different factors. Litecoin is good for long term profiting, by the time if we compare the price both the assets have reached in the past it is a win for ethereum. In simple terms ethereum and altcoin were almost close in value, but all of the sudden Litecoin marched high and further on it wasn't able to move along with ethereum. This can be understood going through the growth chart. Based on this I find ethereum better than Litecoin.

I will go for ethereum,  the reason is because ethereum blockchain is superb,  almost all new project wanna run their project on ethereum blockchain. Also lots of projects on coinmarketcap are running on ethereum blockchain,  this development helps soar ethereum price during the previous bull season when ico was still booming

Also lots of trading  pairs on exchanges have ethereum pair, with such development Eth tends to be a good project for long term,  I don't think supply of coin really matters again,  take a good look at Xrp with its supply and it reached $3+ as all time high

[SquallLeonhart]

Litecoin or ethereum both have advantages and are currently good to be used as a way of investing. but maybe eth popularity is still above litecoin, but believe me to litecoinn good for investment and still in demand by many investors

Are you really sure that we are taking about the same Litecoin that is listed in the coinmarketcap or the Litecoin that you have personally created because I don’t see any investors that are still putting money in Litecoin, this is one of the project that I have seen not growing at all and yet still counted amongst the top coins, look at the last halving that it had, if investors are still investing in it, how come that the halving never pushed the price up, because if there were investors, that halving should have been the motivating factor that will see to the rise of the Litecoin.

Ethereum can never be compared to Litecoin, the technology of Ethereum or do I say that the product of ethereum is way too important than that of Litecoin.

[ciang huang]

seeing between ethereum and litecoin I am still interested in ethereum because many ico or IEO users are using the platform from ethereum.  if ltc is indeed in short supply and the price is quite high but the platform has never been used for ico programs and such

[ice18]

If we speak for long term investment I will go for ethereum as of now its almost -85% down from recorded ATH from last year and according to some news many future improvements will happen into eth network especially the most awaited eth 2.0 if this happen price can recover in just a short period of time.

so far I have never hesitated to invest in ETH. however the development of ETH is more visible than other altcoins. Well, I also don't doubt LTC, it's just that I'm very optimistic about the development of ETH 2.0 that will happen in the coming year. I don't know if that will bring many changes to the price, but the potential for price development is of course very large. if this is an ATH problem, it doesn't matter, because we know that almost all coins today are so far from the ATH. but, not all coins have the chance to achieve it again.

[shadowdio]

For me both are good investments for long term, but if I only to choose one, definitely ethereum is my choice to hold for long term because ethereum is the king of altcoins you know and it has more potential than litecoin.
