Foundation matters, Bitcoin has it most-solid, it created the idea, without Bitcoin, no cryptocurrency. Who dares belittle Bitcoin with Ethereum again? Only a fool, 2025 is not 2021. In 2021, also before then, you would hear it loud that Ethereum will beat Bitcoin one day, yes in their dreams.

Bitcoin broke the 2021 ATH [$69k] in 03/2024 to reached $73,850, recorded a new height in 11/2024 [$108k], finally the current ATH≈$110k.
What did Ethereum? Nothing, it has been lazy.

The ATH of 2021 [$4,870] is still holding in 2025.
Now I can say I’ve seen a user with a truly newbie thread. From the subject of the thread, it already has the stink of a newbie written all over it and I wasn’t mistaken.
Anyway, you don’t put Bitcoin into any form of comparison with any other coin out there. It’s the one reason why it’s a stand alone currency, while other coins fits into the context of altcoin and tokens, Bitcoin reserves its spot and directs the market movement through all seasons.
