Post by: Green Sky on September 23, 2018, 11:52:29 AM
Most people have the mindset that the price of ethereum rises with bitcoin and vice versa. How true is this?

Not only ether, almost all coins follow the movement of bitcoin prices. If the price of bitcoin rises, the ether will stabilize. If bitcoin is high, then ether will gain public trust and rise slowly. But if the price of bitcoin falls, the altcoin will drop faster.

I guess it's yes ethereum is only next to bitcoin if bitcoin down the price so ethereum too and all coins follow cause bitcoin is the center off all in cryptocurrency.

ethereum is the strongest crypto after bitcoin, compared to eth with btc, eth is superior to its speed and cheap fees, it's just that investors still choose btc to become a means of payment and money exchange, but even so, btc remains better for now;

Every crypto has a positive correlation with BITCOIN: historically when it had deep down in price every coins had fallen too, even if with different %.
On the other hand everytime BITCOIN had a big rise, also altcoins have positive sign too. That's normal because BITCOIN dominance market is more than 50%!

Yes, it is true. Virtually the entire cryptocurrency, not just ethereum, follows the price movements of bitcoin. Bitcoin price dominates other types of cryptocurrency due to its high level of capitalization. Now the level of Bitcoin capitalization is more than 112 billion dollars, while ethereum, which ranks second in terms of capitalization, has only 22 billion.

BTC as the backbone currency for the whole cryptocurrency space is for sure have an effect on all other coins especially the effect of news not only the price. But that is not always the case just go back a little early this year and the late of 2017, Ethereum price was totally independent  you could notice this clearly when the prices of the whole market collapsed in 2018 and Ethereum was the only coin that holds its price for so long until it finally follows but there was a huge gap between market collapses and Ethereum did.

Basically, all crypto get affected by BTC moves but this is not always the case.

The whole cryptomarket depends on bitcoin price. Just check the diagrams on coinmarketcap to ensure.

Currently, yes.
Ethereum and others still depend on bitcoin price movement.
Bitcoin still be the main products on every/most of crypto exchanges.
Also,  bitcoin is having the most fiat pair on the market. That makes bitcoin still be the king

Almost half of Market Cap belongs to Bitcoin so not only Ethereum but also all altcoins are affected by price fluctuations of Bitcoin.

I think that is the system of crypto prices dependent to bitcoin value.
It seems that bitcoin is the bases of all altcoins price. They pattern the equivalent token numbers to bitcoin value which is good to have one major coin that domain cryptocurrencies.

If it is seen in fact here that indeed the state of the Ethereum market always follows the Bitcoin market. But the difference is the percentage. If Bitcoin rises automatically Ethereum rises too, but the percentage increases are different. Sometimes Ethereum is bigger than Bitcoin. That's why even though Ethereum is still influenced by Bitcoin, but for the percentage increase in the market there is no effect on Bitcoin.

A few months ago, they were very similar, now the concept has changed, and Bitcoin sank less than the eterium, but I continue to believe that we will grow back, because eterium is a very important and key coin

Some may deny that fact but it is very through. BTC has an immense effect on all altcoins. I hardly see the impact ETH has on BTC,it is always the latter on the former

Btc leads the cryptocurrency, somehow your thought is true. Market cap is being capitalized by bitcoin so any mvement from it will surely affect the other coin in the market. Hopefully, in the coming years alternative coins will be independent from bitcoin movement.
