The amount of money an investor is willing to risk on every cryptocurrency project they decide to invest in determines how profitable those coins will be for them. According to the investing formula, the more money invested, the better the returns expected. When the market climbs, expect a substantial return if you make huge investments.

If one should invest heavily in crypto projects, Bitcoin and Ethereum are two prominent top coins that will advise to them because of their ability to make one very wealthy.

Bitcoin has a tendency to fly higher than any other coin in the crypto sphere, and it has the potential to provide investors with significant rewards over time, according to both of ATH's price histories. However, bitcoin seems to be the best investment to be for better profits

Simply put If you're an investor and you want to invest in a cryptocurrency coin the safest to go for in both short and long term investment plan is bitcoin, however if you're rather looking for an alternate order than bitcoin ethereum is the next recommendation as it has been able to prove itself in the market which has made the coin earn notable trust among investors, and it has been for years now the coin next to bitcoin in leading order of cryptocurrencies.

This statement isn't completely true, it's true that the amount of capital you're willing to invest in a token can influence your profitablity but that's the the first thing to put into consideration. The first and most important thing should be how good the project is, the most important thing to first look into before even considering how much to put into the project should be whether the project has a good roadmap and a good future because no matter you invest in a scam token, your profit isn't guaranteed, instead you'll end up loosing your funds.

Both Bitcoin and Ethereum are good for investment, they're the biggest performing coin by market capitalization but Bitcoin has about half of the total market cap of of all the crypto market and the most established. This may not be really important because it could change this year, but from January to December last year, Bitcoin was up by about 105% while ETH was about 64%. Bitcoin has greater public acceptance and the favourite coin to invest.

What would be the best investment for a better profit?

To choose between Bitcoin and Ethereum is like choosing between an orange and an apple...both are different, both got advantages and disadvantages but both are good cryptocurrency and can be worth investing with. Bitcoin being the pioneering cryptocurrency is the King of them all and up to now it still commands the biggest value among so many alternatives around. Bitcoin is the most talked-about digital coin and is the benchmark of the industry. The cryptocurrency industry would not be here had there been no Bitcoin and that is why the industry goes where Bitcoin is going, for sure. With Ethereum, it is considered to be the second largest alt and has been considered a big success in the market but it is still following the lead of Bitcoin, that is for now. So in between the two, there is actually no need to choose because you can have them both to your heart's content depending on your capacity to buy in the free crypto market. So why not sell your house and belongings to get more BTC and ETH? Of course, this not a financial advise because I am not your licensed advisor on financial dealings in any way and in any capacity.

All of us who are involved in cryptocurrencies know that Bitcoin and Ethereum are the best and most popular currencies among cryptocurrencies. Still if going to find the best then definitely I will take Bitcoin as the best because we have seen that Bitcoin is the king of all cryptocurrencies with the price of all coins fluctuating depending on the price of Bitcoin. Another investor's first choice is Bitcoin. But for my part I have invested both bitcoin and ethereum but more in ethereum than bitcoin because with the money I had I got an ethereum rather than a small amount of bitcoin it made me very emotional.

I always recommend that people buy and use BTC, and that is because of its usefulness or utility, you can be certain that there would always be demand for BTC, people would continue buying it to service some of their needs, so i think you should buy BTC over any altcoin. It is worth mentioning anyway that if you are going to buy BTC, you should not be expecting to become rich immediately, you should be looking at returns in the long run.

The best one is always Bitcoin.
No doubt. that is Bitcoin.

How if you want to invest also in Ethereum?
Why not?
Ethereum is also considered as the best altcoin, the price is following the progress of Bitcoin, this is also trusted. So, it can be a great alternative.

Anyway, have you ever heard about money management with diversification? In crypto investment, that is also utilized in order to optimize the chance of getting profits. In this case, if you have certain money and you are willing to invest, rather than being confused of choosing Bitcoin or Ethereum, why not diversifying your money into BTC and also ETH? So, it will not make you regret when you know the exact price target in the future. The percentage will be on your personal consideration, but for me, Bitcoin will be always number 1.

Bitcoin is one of the most popular and reliable cryptocurrency but Ethereum is the best and most popular among altcoins. As an investment an investor can profit by investing in both coins but by investing in Bitcoin an investor can be much safer and not have to take much risk. Also Bitcoin does not fluctuate its price depending on any other coin but if we look at Ethereum among altcoins we can see that Bitcoin fluctuates its price depending on the market. At most I would definitely consider Bitcoin better than Ethereum.

An investor does not only think about the profit but before investing the investor thinks about whether he is investing in the right coin as well as what is the amount of money risk in the coin he is investing in. These things are therefore thought of in advance because if own capital is not protected then how do we expect to profit. You want to know which of the two best cryptocurrency coins is more profitable to invest in, but if you think about both profit and security, I would suggest you to invest in Bitcoin first and if you have a little bit more money then Ethereum can be your second choice along with Bitcoin investment. These two coins are the best in the market so hopefully there is nothing to say about these two coins separately.

Nobody knows for sure. But it's worth to mention that,
1. You can stake ETH for extra income. There are non-custodial ETH staking pool, which means they can't just steal your ETH.
2. BTC has less "inflation" compared with ETH, which reduced over time.

Both are good at current situation. BTC is no doubt more secure investment due to fully decentralization than any other coin including Ethereum but still due to large market cap Ethereum is also considered somehow safe coin. If we watch out future events for both coins so big events are coming for both which could gjves a positive result.

Ethereum ETF is delaying but sooner or later we will get good news about ETH etf just like btc which is very good for ETH holders. At the same time BTC halving is very close which considered a positive event for btc price. I will recommend to hold both at 60-40 or 70-30% proportion for better results.

You might consider investing in both Bitcoin and Ethereum which can be a way to have a decent profit. Instead of choosing only one, it's better to do diversification of your portfolio which is the best choice. I've met some of the investors who refused to take advice and they prefer to have invested all their assets into one. However, when there is a sudden increase in value of the other cryptocurrency, they have regretted the decision they made and have a realization that they should have invested in the other coin as well.

If we only look at it from an investment perspective and ignore everything that differentiates the two cryptocurrencies, then ETH is probably a better option for those looking for higher profits. However, unlike Bitcoin, we know that ETH is centralized, that it has an unlimited supply and that not so long ago it stopped using POW and became POS.

In the long term, Bitcoin therefore seems to me to be a much better investment, and in addition, it also functions as a currency, given that there are thousands of online stores that accept it, as well as physical ones. For those whose problem is sometimes too high fees, there is always the LN option that successfully kills two birds with one stone - instantly and cheaply.

Currently I am only accumulating Bitcoin not because I believe that it's the only coin that can give me profit but because I believe more in Bitcoin than any other coins. For any investor who have a lot of money to invest into cryptocurency, they can invest in Bitcoin and also invest some money into Ethereum. What you have to know is that, the level of profit you make in trading is dependent on the amount of capital that was invested.

Post by: BitMaxz on February 09, 2024, 10:06:01 PM
There are lots of things that I stopped believing in ETH after they switched from POW to POS but I understand the reason why they switched to POS is due to the transaction fee I was one of the Ethereum miners before because it is profitable compared to mining ETH but right now we no longer able to mine it.

Regarding the profitability, according to coinmarketcap as you can see on the weekly chart Bitcoin you more profit compared to ETH and we know block halving is coming we can see more profit coming in Bitcoin compared to ETH.

In very short, Bitcoin mainly focus on being digital gold and a medium of exchange, while Ethereum is a platform for building decentralized application and executing smart contracts. So, Which one is  the best that's depends on your specific needs, preferences, and investment goals. But my choice is go for investing with BTC.

Your choice is very smart because if you choose Bitcoin as the coin of choice, it will give you a lot of profit,
 
But I have to correct something Bitcoin price movements are unstable and tend to have fast price movements, so price movements can be used to make a profit. So Bitcoin price movements will never be stable and tend to fluctuate, and it is clear that every year the Bitcoin price is always different.

BTC price is not so stable, and stability may not be one of the reasons why i would choose BTC above other coins, if you want stabillity, then you have to use stablecoins. I prefer BTC because it is decentralized and censorship resistant, but Ethereum is centralized; when i use BTC i am so sure that i am in control of my funds and i don't need any third party.

I also think that Bitcoin is the most secure coin for investment. However, the price of Bitcoin isn't stable, Bitcoin fluctuates and it changes quite significantly in a day. If we want to look for the stable coins for investment, USDT can be the coin for you. But I don't want to invest in stable coins because we can't expect for huge profits. To get huge profits, we must choose very unstable coins.

In my experience, I've made more money with Bitcoin but also made great profits with Ethereum. If you can invest into both of it, that's good but if you are limited to choose one then start with Bitcoin. You're not going to regret investing on it as both are the top of the chain of the crypto market but obviously, always go with Bitcoin. It will never be left by the market so as Ethereum but who knows if there will be another competitor that might replace ETH soon.

Both Bitcoin and Ethereum are two very popular coins in the coin market. Investing in these two top most favorite coins is definitely profitable if it is planned to hold after long term investment. If I had enough funds, I would have invested on those two coins. If you have enough dollars then you can invest in these two coins using special DCA method and think of long term holding and prepare to get huge profits in future.

It's tough to decide with precision which  investment is better, whether Ethereum or Bitcoin because Both have the potential to yield substantial profits and have advantages and disadvantages. The fact that Bitcoin was the first and most well-known cryptocurrency, with a higher market capitalization and greater acceptability by the general public, is a benefit. Ethereum has the benefit of more sophisticated technology and a larger selection of uses. It ultimately boils down to your risk tolerance and personal preferences. 

Personally, I've never really considered investing in Ethereum because I've always felt Bitcoin has more profitability than Ethereum so I can't really say much about investing in it. But like I said, it's a matter of personal choice, I have people who'd rather choose to invest in Ethereum rather than Bitcoin as well as the other way round

I'm choosing Bitcoin. For the long term, even the very long term, Bitcoin's potential outweighs that of altcoins. That's why I trust the King more than the Queen.

Sure, Ethereum might seem to be giving bigger profits than BTC for now, but I still believe in BTC overall. For the best outcome, you could try investing 50:50, as both coins are the top ones in the cryptocurrency space right now.

Bitcoin, as long as we know the right time to buy and sell, Bitcoin will become the first
Because Bitcoin is the first crypto and it is the best one

However, I also love Ethereum, so it's not a problem to invest in ETH, right? Because we focus on getting profits, so it's actually better to do it with lots of things that are worth it. ETH is also the number 2 crypto in coin market cap. And there is no need to doubt the quality and progress of its development. ETH is also highly trusted so it will not easily disappear from the market.

Is there ever a right time to buy Bitcoin? Bitcoin isn't like every other crypto, it's proven to be distinctive and has stood out. With Bitcoin, you don't need to wait for the right time because everytime is the right time, you don't need to wait for dips, or wait for a bear market before you can get a greenlight to buy. The secret of Bitcoin is, just buy (at any given time) and HODL.

Bitcoin still more far better than Ethereum I just have a natural likeness for bitcoin that altcoin because its done in me that altcoin may likely fail any point in time, but bitcoin still possess that strongest power to will over every other currency, and can't easily be controlled or killed by any government agencies. Investment with bitcoin is more secure and trusted than altcoin such as Ethereum or any other.

Whatever the reason, Bitcoin is always the best crypto to invest. Bitcoin will be always the first.
But on the other hand, Ethereum is also potential for investment. This is also the best altcoin, in which it is always following the trend of Bitcoin. As what we can see on the market cap, Bitcoin is first and Ethereum is second. So, I  personally love those two coins. There is no need to always only pick one if we want to diversify our assets, ETH will be also  included.

Yes, it's the prime mover so it should be the first on the list, specially for newbies in crypto market. If they invest or hold Bitcoin, they will learn a lot, instead of looking for altcoin that they thought will give them profits in the future. And with Bitcoin investment, it shatters the myth of getting rich quick here in crypto.

I have nothing to say Ethereum, it's in the top of the food chain, but we haven't heard terms like Ethereum Maximalist right? We only have Bitcoin Maximalist which mean there are investors who are going full 100% on Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is still the best because coin price movements can influence the prices of all coins on the exchange. Moreover, the supply of bitcoin is very limited and this is what will make the price of bitcoin very expensive soon.

Aside from Bitcoin being accepted in El Salvador as a legal tender or apart from Bitcoin being used as a payment option for so many companies, Bitcoin is the only coin that has halving season which makes it more unique, I can actually invest into Bitcoin today and have a hope to earn more profit in the next four years to come which is definitely another bull season but it's not possible to have such hope with alt coins, although Ethereum is not really a bad altcoin to invest on, it's the strongest altcoin, so, hopefully it could also last for a very long time, unless it is faced by some unforseen circumstances. We can all point finger to how Luna  crashed, despite proving worthy of a good coin for some years.

Yeah you're right,
Inasmuch as Bitcoin is considered the OG in the crypto world, it's also worth noting that Both Bitcoin and Ethereum has their own unique contributions to the the crypto space, just as Bitcoin introduced the Blockchain technology which is leaving lots of marks on the crypto space, Ethereum also came in with a new technology too called the smart contract as well as the providing of a platform for building and running of dApps.

These are amazing technologies that other projects are making full utilisation of.
Although Bitcoin has an added advantage over Ethereum because it's the first ever made crypto currency introduced to the world and that makes it the digital gold.
Ethereum on the other hand also has amazing potentials too, so yeah if one can afford to invest on both of them, then it would be a very smart move.

Profit wise, Ethereum would be a better option instead of Bitcoin.

Ethereum is more volatile than Bitcoin. Ethereum in the year 2018 reach the lowest price of below $100 a piece and at its peak during the bull market in 2021 is around $4800 - that's around 48x if you bought at bottom and sold at the top. Bitcoin on the other hand reached as low as $2000 IIRC while its peak is around $69,000 - that's around 34x if you bought at the bottom and sold at the peak.

I might be wrong though with those calculations but profit wise, Ethereum would be a better option although Bitcoin is also a good option as well. Wait. Why picking only one of them if you can buy both of them, right? :D

Diversification is very good, but i do not recommend diversifying into different altcoins, they are influenced by BTC's price, so it is better to diversify into other things that are different from BTC, like real estate, gold, etc. I know that a lot of people buy BTC and a lot of other altcoins, however i do not consider that to be diversification, when the assets are somehow linked to one another.

As you know, people do not think about the profit only. They think about the risk as well. I don't think someone is going to pick ETH just because it may give better ROI in the near future. I know that ETH has a lot of use cases when it comes to DeFi and other things, but as you said, ETH is too volatile compared to Bitcoin. When Bitcoin moves 10% a week, ETH moves more than 15% a week. But, if people want to pick a currency just because it is more volatile, then they may go with the meme coins as well.  ;D ;D

Kidding aside, I will always pick Bitcoin over ETH. But if I have both options, I will have 20% portfolio in ETH as well as it's not a bad project at all. ETH has proved itself for a while which is why it is the 2nd biggest cryptocurrency on the market.

Yes when it always comes to crypto investment Bitcoin is better for the long run while like you said Eth will be also included in diversifying our assets, in fact to a proper diversifying of assets must include ETH which has always been doing well in ROI.

While outside as a means of an investment I will still opt for Bitcoin while if I need to create Dapps or smart contracts I will opt for other altcoins like Solana since I can do something similar with a lesser fee, this is has always been a reason I usually try to stay off anything involving Ethereum

You're right that other altcoins are influenced by BTC but let's not forget that profiting from BTC means that you need to HODL for the long-term which is quite the opposite for a few altcoins.
Most of the altcoins has the potential to give a very high interest and profits during the short term, so it depends on your investment goals, if you're a bitcoin investor and then you wish to also pursue short-term profits, then diversifying your investment to other altcoins would be a great idea...

There are altcoins that has the potential to give you a 1000X profit in matter of months and then maybe DIPs again, but the point is that you've also made some crazy ass profits from altcoins while still HODLing BTC.
I think what you should rather say is that, it wouldn't be advisable to diversify your investment to alcoins using the same investment techniques as though it was Bitcoin ( HODLing for the long-term) it is then you'll be making a terrible mistake.

While this may be true, but what about the risks involved when you buy new altcoins that can make you this type of profit, you can buy so many of them and lose all your money, altcoins are pump and dump and unless you are ready to gamble with your money, you should not buy too many new altcoins.

While this may be true, but what about the risks involved when you buy new altcoins that can make you this type of profit, you can buy so many of them and lose all your money, altcoins are pump and dump and unless you are ready to gamble with your money, you should not buy too many new altcoins.
That was simply a hypothetical scenario and just an illustration to show that the movement of altcoins and bitcoin may not really be the same in all cases.
And you're right that altcoins are pump and dump and investing in them is pure gambling. Of course everyone who invest in altcoins already know that just like gambling, their possibilities of winning is way lower than that of losing and that the odds are against them.

Most of these projects are created for the benefit of the project creators and the early investors, just like a Ponzi scheme, so anyone who dives into these sort of investments already should know the risks attached to them.

As you know, people do not think about the profit only. They think about the risk as well. I don't think someone is going to pick ETH just because it may give better ROI in the near future. I know that ETH has a lot of use cases when it comes to DeFi and other things, but as you said, ETH is too volatile compared to Bitcoin. When Bitcoin moves 10% a week, ETH moves more than 15% a week. But, if people want to pick a currency just because it is more volatile, then they may go with the meme coins as well.  ;D ;D

Kidding aside, I will always pick Bitcoin over ETH. But if I have both options, I will have 20% portfolio in ETH as well as it's not a bad project at all. ETH has proved itself for a while which is why it is the 2nd biggest cryptocurrency on the market.
Up to 15% moving of Ethereum price if bitcoin can raise up to 10%, I think its reason large moving up price why many trader or investor spent their investing in altcoin than bitcoin exactly not get large amount of capital for trading. I think profitable earn from altcoin bigger than bitcoin but have to ready getting risk when investing in altcoin if bitcoin crashing around 5% has opportunity for altcoin dropping more than 15%.
ready with huge ROI or profitable from altcoin investment need to prepare high risk when bitcoin dropping few percent altcoin get potential drop more than x2 until x3 ratio of bitcoin crash.

Of course, also be prepared for all the risks that will occur,
the rise and fall of the two coins will also occur and do not panic too much with these fluctuations.

A panicked person will only make a lot of losses and not achieve the main goal of the investment made.

Bitcoin and ETH are mandatory coins for long-term investment, now still quite affordable and down from the last ATH price.
Strong speculation about the soon-to-reach ATH of $100k++.

Yeah, but the number of short-term investors are increasing lately. There are a lot of investors who do not really care about Bitcoin or Eth but they look for the newest coin that is going to be listed on exchanges. Most of the new coins are just pump-and-dump coins and sometimes I feel like those coins are scams. Some of these coins get 5000% pump in the first hour of listing but then again those coins dumps to the bottom.

But recently I understand why this happens. Most of the projects promote their coins through exchanges and they offer airdrop for early traders. If you are aware of bybit listing events, then you may know what I am talking about.

At Bybit with only $100 you can get a lot of new coin airdrops, this is indeed a marketing strategy to make many users interested.
Not only on Bybit, but many exchanges also use it.

Now that airdrops on exchanges or giveaways for new coins are increasingly in demand, new coins are doing this so that more and more investors are getting better known and more investors are entering.

Well, we're talking about profits, but no one wants to use price charts and data. I'm happy to do that, as a few imgs will help us understand each other better.

In the 2017 bull run, BTC yielded a profit of 10723% ~ x108, while ETH yielded a profit of 310983% ~ x3110.

In the 2021 bull run, BTC yielded a profit of 1866% ~ x19, while ETH yielded a profit of 6417% ~ x65.

(https://www.tradingview.com/x/EcVktKQP/)

These figures show that ETH has higher returns than BTC. This means that investing in ETH will give investors more profit in the same cycle.

In general, I see BTC as a very safe option in this market, accompanied by an unimpressive price appreciation potential. ETH, on the other hand, balances both safety and price appreciation performance. The choice will depend on the investment appetite of each investor.

I know that other exchanges are doing the same thing. But Bybit and Bitget doing it and the reward amount of their airdrop is good. Other exchanges like Binance and Kucoin do this as well. But the reward they give to the users is not good enough. If you stake $100 in binance, you are likely to get less than a dollar. In comparison, If you do the same in Bitget or in Bybit, you are likey to get $5 to $20 or it could be even more. This is another reason Bitget and Bybit getting more users lately. But I am not gaming Bybit airdrop anymore because the trading activity on Bybit is too much volatile.

Yeah regardless of the asset you choose to invest in, the potentials of losses and gains are always there, and it's important for every investor to know the risks associated with whatever investment he wishes to enter even before he enters, this often helps investors to minimise the risks of losses, because by being fully aware of the presence of losses in an investment, it'll help the investor to make calculated and logical decisions at all time.

They can be scams if they are listed in exchanges that are not very reputable in the industry but most of them aren't scams, they just tend to gain a lot of value initially and then dump after some time and then stay sideways for very long before they manage to gain some value again. People investing in such tokens and coins can only gain profit from them if they manage to time their trades perfectly and we all know it is barely possible to time the market.

So those who think such tokens and coins can earn them a fortune then they are having a wrong mindset because most people lose in such trades unless they have already acquired some coins some way before the listing of the coin or token in an exchange.

Coins like Shiba Inu, Bonk and ORDI have created this hype. People think that if Shiba Inu could pump like this, or if Ordi or Bonk could pump like this, then why not another Bonk? They continuously invest, hoping to see another Bonk or another Ordi. Some shitcoin projects were successful previously. This is why people invest in shitcoins with the hope that they will have the fortune investing in shitcoins. To be honest, I have bough a couple of shitcoins back in 2021 with the hope that those tokens will pump as well. But I was wrong with my prediction and most of them now worth zero.

These set of altcoins you've listed have indeed created some sort of hype in the altcoin market, especially amongst investors who are still relatively new in the crypto space. People have now believed that if those tokens can actually do so well and yield that much profit, that other altcoins can actually replicate the success and so they spread their investment across several altcoins hoping to find the next big coin that'll change their lives.

You are 100% right, but IMO people are looking at the wrong projects, as at the moment I thought people would be farming runes tokens which just got listed on some exchanges. I will call it a meme coin. And it can also give huge pumps in the future, but it's just a speculation, not financial advice. Speaking of Shiba, Bon, ORDI and first some originals and BRC-20 tokens have made people a lot of money.

As gladiator said, only those people made millions of dollars who adopted these coins before the listing, like in pre-sales, by minting them, by inscribing them etc. etc. The best investment is to invest when token didn't launched, otherwise look at the top 100 projects, otherwise start doing DCA in BTC and in ETH too as they are also a good option.

Actually, to get high and maximum profits, it doesn't depend on which type of asset we maximize, but on the strategy we apply to get the best way to manage and make money. I myself don't want that to be an option at the moment, because everyone has different strategies, so the results of investing between BTC and ETH are always variable when compared.

My advice is, adjust it to your strategy, then you will find which coin has better potential in generating profits according to the strategy you apply.

So if I'm to understand you correctly, you're saying that it doesn't matter if I'm HODLing BTC or TRX, that I'll still maximise profits as long as I have an effective strategy is applied, or is your statement only about/between BTC and ETH?

There are many hearing about bitcoin in cryptocurrency and couldn't differentiate from what it means to other cryptos, even though its never a thing of doubt that in cryptocurrency, the next after bitcoin is Ethereum which is altcoin, that doesn't equate them under the same category or value, we can know more from their respective market capitalization and PoW or PoS which vividly differentiate them from each other

If a user confirms that he has enough financial support and can invest in Bitcoin and Ethereum at the same time, I would definitely welcome him to invest because he has chosen the right two coins to invest in. Many times it is seen that we can select the right coin but we cannot invest in the right coin due to insufficient amount of money. Some may only invest in Bitcoin and some may only invest in Ethereum, but everyone's first choice of investment is Bitcoin. If I have money that I can invest in only one coin then I will definitely take Bitcoin as that coin.

I will also go with Bitcoin if the only options would be to choose one and no diversification would be available. Generally, because of bigger popularity Bitcoin has. It would be honest to say, that many, who are not familiar with cryptocurrency, knows Bitcoin, but never heard about Ethereum. Only because of that the demand on Bitcoin will always be greater. If we look on ROI, then Bitcoin also win, its price is more elastic and give more opportunity to earn. Another reason would be cheaper-to-use. While it cost almost the same to send both cryptocurrencies, with Bitcoin it is easier to send and receive, while with Ethereum you can send and burn gas for nothing.

While it's a wise choice to always diversify one's investment and investing in both could actually prove to be quite a viable option and approach to increasing your chances of profitability, I'm strongly on the opinion that Bitcoin investment alone can actually fetch you the profit you desire if you channel all the energy and resources you intend to split into just bitcoin investment, although it does take time but you're sure that as long as you keep HODLing and keeping your investment safe and secure, you'll always make amazing profit in the long wrong.

Ethereum was also good investment but If we compare this to Bitcoin in terms profit, Bitcoin is better. Based on their charts, Bitcoin gains more than 300% from Nov 2022 while Ethereum gains more than 200%. This year was a great advantage to Bitcoin because of halving, people expected for the price explode last quarter of this year or the year 2025. While Ethereum don't have new updates at the moment but still benefit from Bitcoin's price increase.

Speaking of halving.
Yes, after halving Bitcoin's price might increase, and as we know Ethereum and other altcoins followed Bitcoin sentiment that Bitcoin has a potential than altcoins when we talk about making a profit.

If you observe then you will surely understand that Bitcoin is the king of all coins, only when the price of Bitcoin increases, then the unique coins increase in price. So now that Bitcoin has halved it is definitely more likely to start a bull run later. This is because every halving that has taken place in the past has seen the highest growth in the Bitcoin group in the year following each halving.
