Is Ethernum a threat to Bitcoin?
-Ethernum is faster than bitcoin
-has been gaining popularity
-its good for smart contracts.
Is Ethernum going to replace bitcoin, die out as a fad or coincide with bitcoin? Are we likely to see any altcoin possibly kill bitcoins or will bitcoin simply incorporate any improvements from altcoins, taking away all advantages.
For now I can say Ethernum is coin next to bitcoin however it can't defeat bitcoin when it comes to currency and popularity. In case that some merchants acknowledge bitcoin but not Ethernum, still , when it comes to other cryptocurrency, Ethernum is the best.
It can be a good replace for bitcoin, it can be used too the way bitcoin can,but not theses soon. Bitcoin gains more popularity and makes more features and development at this time that are being acquired by many users. Having Ethernum as an option is fine, but using it as a main cryptocurrency ,I doubt if many users will adopt it.
