Why do you still use BTC? ETH does everything BTC does faster, cheaper, easier and has a lot of more devs.
As you might know, tech stacks doesn't matter so much as the ecosystem around something.
ETH is also not a "darknet drug coin" like Bitcoin, it's the prime example of decentralised technology with backing from several huge banks, digital businesses and so on.
Why would someone use an old, slow and underdeveloped coin like BTC? If you want only payments, use LTC? Faster, cheaper and not a toxic communtiy
The slow rate of bitcoin orders may actually act as stability in this market.
Also I think bitcoin is really winning it’s place by being the brand name crypto currency rather than quality. Like the hoover of vaccum cleaning, or the dumpster of garbage disposal bins.
Landon Turner
Fuckin kitty game killed this coin
Cooper Long
>if ETH is slow today it will never get better
Jordan Lopez
yes LN has been spoken about for 3 years
ETH has existed for 2.5 years
...........
Aaron Lopez
>the dumpster of garbage disposal bins haha nice
Alexander Kelly
You came to biz asking a question google could have answered in less time.
Jose Watson
still biz is obsessed by a 10 year old slow coin
William Peterson
>unlimited supply >got forked to reverse stolen money >starts to face same scaling issues no thanks
Jacob Rivera
I honestly don’t know why anyone isn’t all in ETH right now. If you went all in ETH at any point in the last six months, you’d have more money now than if you’d gone all in BTC at that same point in time.

>supply will be a near constant 100m >forks are a natural decision-making process that let communities vote with their wallets >can already do 1000 tps on testnet have fun with your shitcoins

How much will ETH hit at the EOY?

BTC and Eth aren't competitors.
Eth isn't intended as a currency.
You don't want your currency to have a programming language built into it, because that makes it less secure.
You'd think you might learn these basic things before posting dumb shit on Veeky Forums.
Ethan Reed
Some experienced people on tradingview say 2k. But I think it should go up more with casper and plasma.
Jayden Lopez
>Some experienced people on tradingview say 2k. 2k EOY??????? Are you insane
Juan Martinez
Yeah ETH is good, but BTC still has market dominance and should be contesting 17k next week if no FUD.
Nicholas Cox
2K isn't even a conservative estimate, it's obviously on its way to 2K now. I'd say 7-10K probably, maybe even more. 7K would be the most conservative
Michael Stewart
5k most likely, at the absolute least 2k, at the most it will hit 10k
Dylan James
ETH already does more tx than BTC and all blockchains together. Plasma and sharding and Raiden is coming soon.
ETH is 2.5 years old. Please tell me what new tech BTC had in 2011
Caleb Lee
Change all the BTC's to Apple, change all the ETH's to android.
You have your answer.
Christian Reyes
Well OP here, but this is a fucking stupid argument. Backtrading is so easy, you could also have bought Ripple, ADA or NEO.
HEre we focus on tech
Liam Perry
>buying Microsoft instead of Apple >buying Yahoo instead of Google
Carter Jackson
because its still widely used in the darknet. Its a massive industry now. Everyone knows it and prefers to get paid in it because its literally digital gold
Colton Nguyen
2k is around 25-30% increase. 1 month ago ETH was 450.
Lucas Edwards
It’s not even like that. Ethereum absolutely STOMPS all other cryptocurrencies in terms of transactions, network, decentralisation, and now market cap value.
Ryder Garcia
I wasn't talking about long term w/ that post.
Adam Brown
Use MOnero and don't get traced.
Michael Jackson
You say that as if you know what you're talking about but you really have no idea. Good luck hacking ETH lmao. >inb4 muh dao
Evan Hall
Anyone here majority ETH but are hedging their ETH holdings with ADA and EOS? You know just to be sure. I mean it will take a while for ETH to scale, i expect ADA and EOS to gain traction further in the meantime.
These are the only ETH competitors that are giving me chills so i hedged on them. My folio is still 70+% ETH though.
Gavin Allen
So, just implement BTC on top of ETH, since ETH is a protocol token as you just said
I bought a few k of EOS this summery. EVERYONE was fudding them, and they were like 30 cent or something so I thought why not. Either I lose 1k USD or it will gain like 200x over a few years.
When all reddit is against something, you know it's worth to buy
Jace Rivera
>When all reddit is against something, you know it's worth to buy Errr is it time to all-in TRX? Kek just kidding. They're stupid as fuck when it comes to ADA and EOS though. They still think they are whitepaper vaporware projects at this point when we know it isnt true.
Alexander Long
because BTC+LN is order of magnitude faster, more secure and more anonymous
Logan Reed
As I said, I don't care so much about whitepaper and fundamentals on short term. But everyone that knows market behaviour, knows that people want to use something that is NOT X
People buy Pepsi instead of coke , burgerking insteaf of mcd, ups instead of fedex and so on. All markets are growing in general, always buy all competitors.

Why do you still use ETH? XLM does everything ETH does faster, cheaper, easier and has a lot of more devs
>Fixed that for you
William Anderson
Idiot
>Stellar is an open platform for building financial products that connect people everywhere.
ETH is a protocol token, things like Stellar can be built ON TOP OF IT!
Austin Morris
>Why do you still use ETH? XLM does everything ETH does faster, cheaper, easier and has a lot of more devs Try making a gambling dapp on XLM. Protip, you cant. Its not turing complete it can only do exchange of values aka ICOs.
Nathaniel Lee
Anonymous.... Anonymous? Are you fucking retarded??? LN is everything but anonymous. KYC regulations for the hubs will come. If not, I'll eat my dick. Lightning hubs will be the banks of BTC
