Which one you buy Bitcoin or Ethereum?

[BlackFor3st]

I did buy both but I buy more Ethereum compare to Bitcoin as I saw promising profit in Ethereum investment compare to Bitcoin even if the bitcoin dominance is very high over other currencies which is more than 50% in the past months.

That's my view for a long term run of investment as I am hoping that Ethereum will reach more than 1k$ dollar again in the near future and the profit will be x5 or more which is very difficult for the bitcoin to reach base on the price of 8.5k$ (8500$ to x5 will be 42500$).

Yesterday the price of Bitcoin was $9700 and today the price is $8500. Yesterday the price of Ethereum is $200 and today the price is $170. So which coin is prefer to buy?

All you have to do is buy Ethereum and then you buy bitcoin using Ethereum because you can reduce its charge compared to bitcoin immediately and you will buy significantly less on the transaction you make. This is just my advice to you that I think is right if you are a practical person.

I would prefer not to buy at this moment. The decrease on the price (percentage) of both of these cryptos are not that far from one another simply implying that both of these coins are negatively affected by the downfall, same with other cryptos in the market. I would go with the "playsafe" strategy as what was practiced before, to hold and not to be discouraged by the downfall. The situation is really tempting. I have even planned to sell some of my holdings but good thing I was advised by my friends, not to. Maybe, we should wait for a little more.Investing I think is not suitable this time still.

I preferred ETH a few months ago, just because I thought has more potential, but market is changing, maybe it will be different this year.
On May Btc raised, and got same price 12 months ago, and Eth didn´t get even close.

Yeah, to choose between the two I would opt for BTC right now, as there's going a hard time for ETH from the past few months. On the other hand, as per the current market trend, I believe buying now BTC would be profitable in the near future...

I think now we need to wait a bit, as the market is bearish. In a falling market, it is better to be either outside of it or to profit from margin trading.

I don't have a huge budget for cryptocurrency, so if I were to choose between the top two coins I'll definitely go with Ethereum. Bitcoin is kind of huge and expensive for me, it's better to stick to Ethereum at the moment.

[Reid]

I go to the cheaper because I want full amount and not just .01 or .1. I want a whole of it so I'd go for Ethereum.

But that is because I already have my bitcoin and that is like a savings to me.
This cheaper one which is Ethereum is what I trade only because also I dont trade my bitcoins.
The profit that will be made from buying and seling Eth will be used to buy bitcoin again or for another capital to widen the amounts of profit.

[Shenzou]

If you really want to maximize your profit and not get confused on what to invest in that i say in vest in both because both of them have really good potential, but if you really can't invest in both of them than you should just go with the safer option which is bitcoin, which you can never go wrong with it  on both long term and short term, but when bitcoin rises so does ethereum and so if you invest in both of them you get best of both worlds, and etehreum is also has a good potential to be a great cryptocurrency and rise to high prices.

I would suggest you to take both. When BTC increases, ETH will certainly increase. Add these two coins into your portfolio and split your investment into two and buy both. Both are good coins. You can add, BNB, LTC into your porfolio.

I agree to take both. however at this time, the development of ETH was also quite convincing. it might be very easy for ETH to rise to $ 250 when the BTC prices recover to $ 10,000. choosing one of them will make you confused. I'm currently thinking of ways to collect bitcoin and ETH in a balanced way so that when one of the two goes up, it will benefit. but, I am very confident that these two coins will have a high price, although yesterday I was pessimistic because the price of bitcoin dropped to $ 7k

Both cryptocurrencies showed growth on October 1, and Ethereum was even better. However, I do not think that it should be the criteria to choose this or that crypto. You should trade, sooner or later, even if you are planning to invest online and hold. Therefore, it makes sense to invest in both, Bitcoin and Ethereum as these are two main cryptos on the market, and they will not give up these positions.

Why not invest both btc and eth if funds permitted it? This is good also for long term investment as we can observe btc has high dominance in the market. It really makes sense to invest both as many also who truly hold these coin and patiently waiting for the price to goes up.

I will prefer to buy Bitcoin as it still average dominating the market than Ethereum. This is because Bitcoin is the most trusted crypto currency in the market as it already build a deep foundation of trust among the investors to make their money to grow unlike the Ethereum in which the platform is now slowly challenged by some Altcoins.

[Dpat]

I always prefer to buy Bitcoin as this is the pioneer of this digital concept of money. But, as the price of Bitcoin has gone high in the recent days so, buying of this coin may not give that much of profit as the Ethereum will give in the coming days. So, for now I would like to buy Ethereum and already bought 1 Ethereum.

Why don't you educate us on how do you expect ETH to go up in the coming days? I am someone who has a long association with cryptocurrencies (stretching over 7+ years) and I could not see a good future prospect for altcoins such as Ethereum. ETH is facing a lot of issues right now and the third generation cryptos are beginning to sideline it.

The issues for ETH started with the collapse of the ICO market (ironically, it was the same ICO market which gave this coin a 100x rise in 2017). This was the single most reason why ETH prices collapsed in 2018/19. On top of that, they are facing issues related to transaction fee and security. From what I have heard, the daily transaction fee for ETH has reached record high levels.

- You shouldn't put what you like into your investment mindset because that's one of the reasons that lead us to failure, although bitcoin is really as good as you said but it is also an insecure investment, and we cannot say that buying bitcoin is profitable, sometimes we will win and sometimes vice versa. The reason for these two possibilities is because of the adjustment of the market and the establishment of trend of investors, everyone has an individual's need, and they never want something to go up or down forever, everything needs a balance to work properly and to make money.

If you can afford both then buy them both, now is the right time to buy them since the price is low and as we all know both are considered strong coins and we can guarantee that it will pump up again, we just have to wait a little longer. Both coins have been doing great for the past few months and it seems that ethereum is having a similar trend as bitcoin and it became the top of all altcoins thus, it is better to buy both.
The market seems to be unfavorable this past few days and it seems very unpredictable but just be patient, as what the saying goes and I quote “good things comes to those who wait”.

[South Park]

I did buy both but I buy more Ethereum compare to Bitcoin as I saw promising profit in Ethereum investment compare to Bitcoin even if the bitcoin dominance is very high over other currencies which is more than 50% in the past months.

If you are willing to wait that long then it is clear that during the next year or two ethereum should be more profitable than bitcoin, bitcoin is at 40% of its all time high while ethereum is close to be at 15% of its all time high, this means that it is easier for ethereum to double in price than it is for bitcoin so ethereum is a tremendous value investment for those willing to take the risk and buy ethereum now, however like any other investment its price could go down even more before it goes up.

[bitcoinst]

Based on your words, if I were a simple layman, I would refuse to buy both coins.
If you choose one thing, I would choose Bitcoin, it has significantly more positive dynamics than Ethereum. However, this would not be correct in terms of the distribution of risks during the investment.
The market is already divided into 2 parts bitcoin and altcoins, which means that when investing, you should use such a thing as diversification, thereby acquiring a little of both.

[bitzizzix]

There is no choice for me because I will choose and buy both, because investing in Bitcoin or Ethereum is very profitable and but I am more dominant in bitcoin on the grounds that bitcoin is more profitable because lately the movement of bitcoin is still in good condition.
the most important thing is to buy it when the price goes down and resell it when the price is high to get the maximum profit.

[darewaller]

Between the two, only bitcoin although there are other alts I like and regularly buy.

To be honest, I never liked ethereum much. It's just too slow (as that kitty game showcased sometime back) and imo it's too complicated for everyday users to ever become mass adopted.

It is better to be slow and steady than all those other altcoins that have very high rate of volatility and cannot be reliable for receiving payment, what will you do to receive a coin that is equivalent to $1000 today and then you wake up tomorrow to see that it had turned to $50, or Ethereum that you could receive the $1000 and in the next few days, you could either still meet you money there exactly or meet it with little increase, and even if it will drop, you meet it with a little drop.

We cannot continue to be using all the altcoins for digital asset alone, one of them must be very useful for the payment of goods and services and that is how we can achieve the purpose for which the cryptocurrency was created rather than just holding it for digital asset alone.
