Can ethereum replace bitcoin?

[alltalk]

I doubt it will happen since there is no sign to happen. Bitcoin has become the leader of other coins for many years. And there are no other coins, including ETH, has possible chance to overtake Bitcoin in the near future. So, I don't think it will happen, guys.

[Odora]

indeed, at this time ethereum is in second place, but don't expect to be able to replace the position of Bitcoin, Bitcoin is already very strong in position 1 and very difficult to shift it.

[AltLogan]

There are many altcoins which can replace BTC. Ripple for example. It is both more stable and less transparent.

[Knaw]

if I think ethereum will also be difficult to replace its position as bitcoin, because I also believe bitcoin is also the most master coin and the highest value, so I don't think it will happen this year.

Basically, there is no impossible thing in the world as long as it can be done with efforts. Ethereum has a chance to beat Bitcoin even if the chance is very small and should take a long time. Ethereum has a strong community and it is also a very useful coin. This can lead Ethereum to be number 1 coin someday.

[Stalky]

I also don't think that ethereum will replace bitcoin, if I think that can't happen, because the price of bitcoin is also the highest and highest coin, so I think ethereum can't replace the price of bitcoin

Both Bitcoin and Ethereum are open for use by the public, and use blockchain technology, but that's where the resemblance ends. Bitcoin has only one application of the technology: as a monetary system of exchange, for use in online Bitcoin payments. The Ethereum blockchain is more complex.That means it has a vast number of applications and uses, beyond just financial exchange.ETH is possible displace the BTC in the distant future.

It is quite possible after some time, if Bitcoin is not improved and above all, the problem with its scaling is not solved. In this market, the strongest will always survive, regardless of past merits.

The fact is that the price of Ethereum grows depending on the growth of the Bitcoin price. If you compare the graph of ETH and BTC, you can see that they are identical, so I think that Ethereum is unlikely to overtake Bitcoin in terms of price and popularity. But this is a normal situation, because the entire crypto market follows Bitcoin because of its dominance and whether Ethereum is ever sick of being able to be as strong.

[Sudarmono]

I think it is very difficult to replace bitcoin even though it is a very good ethereum coin, because I believe that bitcoin will always be the king of coins at any time, because bitcoin is the first coin created.

[Whate]

no, ethereum will not be able to replace bitcoin at any time. bitcoin as the main coin will not be replaced by any altcoin. including ethereum. ethereum is enough as the ICO king.

[Prime]

Of course, Ethereum will replace bitcoin. It will happen soon. I think at the end of this year.

Sorry, I cannot agree with you as there are no strong signs for Ethereum to replace Bitcoin currently. No, even if it is possible but It seems not in the near future. I think it will need for many years, it should be not easy to change the trust of the crypto community from BTC to ETH.

[Seeyy]

in my opinion, it takes a long time for ethereum to be able to replace bitcoin. And if possible, I am frankly not sure that ethereum can replace bitcoin.

Not today, not tomorrow and ever. Bitcoin is the only coin as others are just imitators except a few and most just play to gallery

its sound imposible but as what have been said many times in crypto space. "anything can happen". so lets just wait how time unfold for ethereum blockchain. i would always consider ethereum to have substantial power to equal if not surpass bitcoin in the coming years. i am not a crypto ananlyst but some may agree that ethereum have a huge potential to elevate the coin into top position of the crypto ecosystem.
