Atari 2600 or Nintendo Entertainment System. One was a proof of concept that proved the idea was possible and was soon oversaturated with garbage; while the other of them had the ability to produce products that are still relevant today.

>PoS making legit progress (no this isnt a meme) it literally is
>Vitalik said he is surprised how fast development is going and if were to have guessed in 2017, he would not have thought how far development on sharding would have come
>MakerDAO just announced an s&p 500 synthetic peg similar to DAI (meaning the entire stock market will be tradeable on eth in a decentralised way very soon) - you can literally already trade an s&p 500 index on eth
>plasma and offchain shit also making very good progress
>WASM coming soon meaning you can create smart contracts in rust, c++ etc. (this wont be big if you arent a dev, but as a dev myself, let me tell you this is huge; majority of devs that go to eos, go there because they can use wasm).

Tell me what BTC can do that ETH can't do much better?
Noah Cooper
It was first. It has movers advantage and people care about it being fairly distributed. NO other crypto can claim this.
Grayson Diaz
Still doesn’t mean much in the grand scheme of things. You think Stacey will stay with her first love betaboy when Chad comes along?
Daniel Brown
Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer had the first mover advantage, kek.
Luis Ross
What if her first love was the ultimate Chad such is the case.
Not the same.
Luis Torres
Tech has a history of rewarding innovation while the former big names in their field get sidelined, even the first movers.
Jaxson Russell
Btc is the guy who got too complacent with himself and Stacey. He thinks that since they’ve been together for so long that he doesn’t have to try as hard anymore. Btc is a one minute man. Stacey wants more, Btc doesn’t even eat ass either. Chad will come soon and blow her mind. Eth flips Btc by 2022 screen cap this

BTC is PoW, meaning it's backed by electricity, hardware and the internet. Decentralised and not controlled by its creator.
Eth is PoS, meaning it's backed by pixie dust. Centralised and controlled by a jewish sodomite.
Joshua Barnes
Um...eth is pow user. Imagine being as stupid as you, holy fuck lmao
Ian Clark
I am a BTC fundamentalist and I know its the future that is way I am telling every single person I know to invest in BTC right now but you know that is wrong and ETH is working on a combination of PoW and PoS and going full PoW

You should really wait till BTC goes back down to $4500 before telling people to invest.

I don't live in the now like some retarded subhuman, ETH will be PoS so it is PoS.

ETH; cheaper and faster transactions, Vitalik, normies FOMO, erc 20 token proliferation, devs' favorite.
Blake Gomez
Eos is the new eth, get with it or roll over!
Gabriel Lewis
nope. this copypasta is horseshit. eth codebase is an UNMITIGATED CLUSTERFUCK. vitalik and homies do not have a handle on it putting POS 3 years YEARS away at earliest. sharding is a hysterical fantasy for ETH. the fact that mongloids like you are trying to create a fake oump off of false made up shit is a very bad sign.
Ryder Phillips
>Eth is PoS,
no retard, it is POW for several years as they try to create a POS that doesn't break everything.

ETH confirmed for getting people Blacked.

it's backed by people not wanting to literally burn their own money you mongrel

I hate PoW maximalists as well.
>PoW is backed by hardware that just wastes energy so it has value.
Its a waste.
Tyler Parker
yes
Jordan Morales
ETH shills...lol
All you need to know about ETH is how much supply there is right now and how much ETH creators and investors gave themselves in the beginning. They printed 72 million ETH for themselves and control more than half the total supply. You have to be pretty stupid to believe its a good long term investment.
Also, try to download the full ETH blockchain. It's over 2 TB and extremely inefficient.
On ETH website:
Ether is to be treated as "crypto-fuel", a token whose purpose is to pay for computation, and is not intended to be used as or considered a currency, asset, share or anything else.

Satoshi has 1 million bitcoin to himself. Both blockchains are big. If you're smart, you'd read about 0xBitcoin and why having a PoW token on the network is a good option. One is used for gas and one is used to trade for goods and services on dapps.
One key factor is it doesn't require mining to secure it like Bitcoin.

John Garcia
Suppose you're right
1 million for satoshi and 17.6 million supply btc
72 million ETH for ETH founders and investors, 105 million supply
I like how you rationalize that this is somehow similar. One is around 5% while the other is over 50%. So the difference is about a factor of 10. When ETH founders hold the majority stake they will win every and any vote for eth's direction. No one else's vote matters. If ETH goes pos, ETH founders literally become rent seekers. Every ETH generated, half of it will go to them so they have a full grip on "decentralized" system.
Again you trivialize 200 GB vs 2 TB by saying "both are big" but one is bigger by
factor of 10. Bitcoin has been around longer too and the blockchain is 1/10 of the size.
If someone offered you 100k vs 1 million, you're going to say "well both are big numbers" then go on rationalizing how 100k is good when you were offered one million? If you were smart, you'd take one million.
Hudson Anderson
jesus fuck - did not know that. that is bad
Cameron Gomez
still made me rich so now what?
James Cruz
The difference is The Ethereum Foundation is allocating ETH and money to fund projects. It's not like we all had no choice, but to buy in. Why did anons invest in any of this without working products from the start? To get rich quick. Of course the blockchain will be bigger for ETH because of how many tokens have tx's transmitted onchain.
Both are experiments trying to solve problems that don't exist. Basically trying to decentralize everything we already use that is centralized without human control. The centralized exchanges also hold millions of bitcoins.
You have valid points. If Ethereum founders stake their wallets of ETH, wouldn't they be the first movers of minting the ETH in each block? Offchain and sidechain solutions along with zkSnarks technology on Ethereum could help minimize the amount of data brought onchain.
I say both coins are fucked if they can't solve their inefficiencies. Nano or Stellar is more efficient at being digital cash. This whole thing is one big experiment that is still trying to find adoption and real world use.
Cooper Taylor
When ETH goes PoS, this thing will be worthless. The cost to mine is the only thing that is holding this from falling to $0. But I hope they change to PoS soon, it'll be nice to see most of the GPU miners going for Monero and its price mooning.

Sure people can invest in ETH, they can day trade and all that. They'd be fools to hold it long term though. Bitcoin however, is hard money, which is why people hold it long term.
FYI, bitcoin never did any icos or printed btc for btc devs. Its not a requirement for any crypto to say "hey we need investors" or "we need devs" then allocate tokens to themselves.
Benjamin Johnson
Oh, so you're shoring it now (all in) and going to get rich right??
Jace Lewis
Except Satoshi actually had to mine in order to gain those BTC. It's not like he premined it by having the 1st block coinbase be 1M BTC from the get go. And the launch was announced well in advance, so he was competing with other early miners at the time.
Juan Perry
ETH, FUCK BTC!! ITS OWNED BY THE JEWS, THE JEWS CONTROL BTC, ITS NOT DECENTRALIZED AND ITS DEFINITELY NOT A VIABLE CURRENCY!!! ETH IS CENTRALIZED TOO BUT AT LEAST ITS NOT CONTROLLED BY THE JEWS
Isaiah Perry
You don't sound like a winner, fren
Landon Perez
BTC v2.0.
Eth is the only choice here.
Ryan Rivera
ETH, if only because it has more potential use cases and doesn't currently shit itself in fees whenever there are more than 200k transactions a day.
BTC shills shitting on PoS is also hilarious.
Easton Smith
AERGO bois. It's the new bae. Gonna get pumped but only if you invest in her.
Alexander Thomas
That's right. ETH was premined and a lot of the founders have huge amounts of it they are holding. Why would the average investor in cryptocurrencies buy into ETH and Ethereum? It's first movers when it comes to smart contracts and research and development continues to get bigger by the day. No Ethereum means none of these ERC20 tokens including ChainLink. The ICO model has to change and mineable tokens should have been the standard from Ethereum's birth.
Blockstream is centralizing BTC. The forks are shit. Segwit is shit. Transaction fees will be right back where they were if Bitcoin goes to 20k. Lightning Network is not distributed and decentralized. China has over 70% of the mining power and is seriously about to ban all mining there.
Bitcoin is still the one on the throne. It is digital gold as you say. A hedge against fiat currencies. I am hoping that what is developed for it keeps it intact. It's not guaranteed to be the be all end all of cryptocurrencies and digital, decentralized hard money.
Many real companies held IPO's. ICO's don't necessarily make something bad. It's not a preferred launch unlike Bitcoin because how can you trust the different teams behind each project to deliver the goods without turning a profit for their own greed?
Good discussion mate. Keep it coming. Fan of both Bitcoin and Ethereum.
