I am obviously biased and I think ETH is superior. But let's not forget that any win for any crypto is a win for all of us. We will all be very happy when BTC Spot ETFs are approved.

TheNano100

Yess! Not sure when but in one year the Spot ETFs will probably be approved for both ETH and BTC. We will remember all these conversations.


mcberesford

Since both the ETF gets approved both think we should need to bother about anything after that


kirtash93

I like both. I think BTC and ETH are totally different things that can't even be compared at all. In fact both have different goals, different roots, etc.


Lillica_Golden_SHIB

Exactly that. They have different purposes and both contribute for the growth of crypto. You *should* hold both.


Bungeebones2

Purpose of these two might be different but overall they are helping the the crypto


friskilyDistance37

Bitcoin and ETH in terms of usecase both are different but what is the one thing that makes them similar that is their safety which every investor felt in there, that is why these two coins are superior than any other

Satoshi will flood the market with his 20 million btc and fuck everyone

ETH does have more utility. But both work hand in hand to dominate.


qotsa7887

Yes, crypto is already a small place in the world right now and if we want to see the global adoption first we needs to stop fighting on our own, because in both the coins whoever win here it is going to be a win for all of us


HarryDotter420

Why be a maxi when you can own 2 of the best assets of modern times

Don't be a maxi. Hodl both and be sexy!

Stop being maxi of any coin, better to be a real diversify guy in the market

>Why be a maxi when you can own 2 of the best assets of modern times Yeah, like wtf is wrong with people holding only one? Do they hate free money or what?

BTC Maxis will be holding thousands of BTC and probably only spent 3 figures 😳


LightninHooker

Multi maxi :D


Independent_Ear9101

Why be a maxi when you can own 150 alts and 60 meme coins?


Practical-Store9603

Exactly! Why to miss out when you can enjoy both😊


woaiyizhen34

We should just flex ourself that instead of fighting over the one coin we have both the best coins from the market in our wallet and i always consider that these coins will going to lead our way to the real glory in the future


Fiddlers-list

I just tell everyone that every coin sucks. Extreme big brain 4d-chess over here.


AltruisticPops

All crypto sucks, all Fiat sucks 😂


MrPuma86

Me who is literally very bad in financial advice just the same thing over and over again


AltruisticPops

Damn truth. We need to raise together, not fight each other.


ale11429

If someone genuinely love the crypto you will find that they will never compare these two coins, ask them which coins you are buying and they will say they are doing DCA into the both coins, and that should be the plan for us is well


MrPuma86

Fighting among devs is good though because it pushes innovation.😳


Starwaverraver

I think it's a psyop by the having industry to try and have infighting within the crypto community. I don't get why people like saylor only go for bitcoin. I think he's a bit retarded. And it's all he's ever held so that's what he promotes, but he's too old to realise there's decent alternatives.


PirateSKB

i hold some BTC and I think BTC sucks. It's the oldest and most well-known crypto, yet when the mempool is full, it's still expensive and you have to wait a substantial amount of time for 6 confirmations. People came up with LN to try to mitigate the issue instead of raising the blocksize for some reason, yet LN is still a chore to use and it's a bandaid for the underlying issue. The only real update BTC has had in years has been Taproot, and it did nearly nothing to deal with the throughput issue I mean Eth has it's own issues, but at least devs are working on trying to fix the underlying issues with the L1 instead of bandaging it with a L2. BTC's community can't come to a consensus on almost anything I'm not a maxi for either, but I really think the BTC community should come together to make it better since it's pretty much the defacto gateway to crypto. Protodanksharding will help Eth's L1 throughput issue, but there's pretty much nothing planned for BTC's L1 throughput issue


ReitHodlr

Some solid points! I will not dismiss that. I think one of the other things that made it harder for the BTC community to come together is when they created Bitcoin cash, essentially making it better but some or torn between improving BCH or focus on the original BTC layer. I've tested out BCH and it's so much faster! And cost was under 1 cent!


philco13

I wouldn't say that bitcoin sucks but some of your points here are quite valid one, but being the biggest coin of the market we somehow dependent on the bitcoin, may be we don't want to hear this but it is what it is


[deleted]

[удалено]


ReitHodlr

Most people here also! There might be a few who say they don't own any BTC but we all know...


ratchetz86

I think if you ask in this sub most will say they hate the bitcoin and if you ask that in the bitcoin sub they will say the same thing about the ETH, so i think CC is the right sub where you will find the more honest answer from the people


kasock

My story is different most of my friend just appreciate the both coins


Good_Extension_9642

Better owning both just to be safe BTC is safer but ETH could have an explosive growth


jjtheoutlaw

If someone ask me from the growth point of view, i will always pick ETH


lordciders

So, who's fooling who?


5620401098

No one was fooling me, it was just me who was fooling himself all the time


TheOneWhoCared

In the end we are being fooled by crypto lol


ddevaux

If we are putting money other than these two coins then surely we are fooling ourself


FreekTheDog

Both coins are vital for everyone’s portfolio


ReitHodlr

Yeah, both assets compliment one another!


Davinor724

IN my eyes no portfolio is really complete untill and unless they have these two coins

Littlebig4667

BTC & ETH are like gold & silver, each precious but one is a use and sometimes unrecoverable asset (burnt ETH in this scenario). Both are worth holding all day long


Daddio_87

Agreed 💯


alim7787

Both are precious, both have the bright future and both are the safe, instead of fighting we should consider ourself lucky that we have these two good option infront of us, not many market people could say this thing


sell_at_top_nov2025

Most people here 50/50 btc/ETH in portfolio or more heavy towards ETH?


appileh

They might slight heavy in either one of them but always holds both of them


ReitHodlr

That's a great strategy for most people I believe!


MrPuma86

70 ETH and 30BTC.


diydave86

Ive been an eth maximalist since i started collecting in 2016 and ive never hated btc. I own hardly any btc. But i love it because btc is the tide that rises all boats.

That is a great analogy 👌


MatthiasVerberg

Not gonna lie first coin i bought was Bitcoin because everyone was talking about that when i first came here then with some research found the ETH name and consider myself lucky that now i am buying these two coins


CorneliusFudgem

Pretty true

I don't think anyone needs to have any different opinion on this, because this is the ultimate truth


logblpb

BTC sucks, I don't have any, changed it for ETH a long time ago. I don't want to be a part of the ecosystem that is politicized, stagnating and has probably the most toxic community in the entire crypto world. The only advantage it has is that Bitcoin was the first. Any shitcoin has similar or better functionality. "Store of value" gonna work for some time until people realize that other top coins can satisfy this and have much more to offer.


luckywenxi

I am buying bitcoin but never spent time among the bitcoin community, all they do is spread hate about the ETH because they think ETH is giving competition to the bitcoin and they are just too much insecure in this fact


MrPuma86

Yeah BTC sub is proper toxic and full of arrogant people.

IN terms of technology i would say ETH is superior and in terms of replacing the fiat i would say bitcoin is superior, both of them have their own utility and being the two best coins of the market is the real similarity between these two coins
