Hello,
I want to know why Ethereum transaction is much cheaper and faster than bitcoin ?

The main reason is that the time of ethereum blocks is 15 seconds, while the bitcoin has 10 minutes, but this does not mean that the bitcoin creator made a mistake by making the blocking time too long, the longer the time between blocks, the less probability of blockchains split appearing, therefore we cannot endlessly reduce it, to milliseconds for exemple.
