Okay, there are advantages and disadvantages for both bitcoin and ethereum. Ethereum has a stronger infrastructure and is able to do much more than Bitcoin for every change. Yet Bitcoin is the first coin on the crypto market that emerged, it has the highest capitalization and the cornerstone for the entire crypto industry is laid. And, in the near future, I don't think it will happen. Maybe that's a good thing because bitcoin is what brings real profit.
Exactly. Both blockchain networks (ETH and BTC) have their respective advantages and disadvantages from one another. While Bitcoin is extremely useful for decentralized finance, Ethereum is not as reliable as Bitcoin is. The world's second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap has other uses for the mainstream world far beyond that of finance. It was designed to have an inflationary supply and faster transaction confirmation times for the benefit of smart contracts. But Ethereum has far lesser security than Bitcoin itself. People can simply use among various blockchain networks available depending on their own needs. For some people, Ethereum is better than Bitcoin because of quicker transaction speeds and lower fees than Bitcoin itself. For others, Bitcoin is better than Ethereum because of its censorship-resistant and decentralized nature.
Considering how big Bitcoin has become since its inception, it looks very unlikely Ethereum will be able to take its place in the future. Still though, crypto behaves in strange and bizarre ways. For once, Ethereum was very close to overcoming Bitcoin in terms of market cap. But the bear market and the fall of ICOs have greatly undermined Ethereum's price across the market. As of now, Ethereum stands far away from Bitcoin in terms of market cap. But in terms of technicalities, it's still in the lead. All in all, both cryptocurrencies are complements to each other instead of an actual replacement. Just my thoughts
