![Why Bitcoin and Ethereum Are Very Different Investments](https://fortunetelleroracle.com/public/upload/media/posts/2021-02/11/why-bitcoin-and-ethereum-are-very-different-investments_1613039688-b.jpg)
Bitcoin is the cryptocurrency that started it all.
Bitcoin
- Bitcoin is the cryptocurrency that started it all.
- Although Satoshi Nakamoto described Bitcoin as a P2P currency system, today the narrative is a little different.
- The narrative has now changed, and people refer to Bitcoin as “Digital Gold.”
- Not surprisingly, many institutional investors have started buying into Bitcoin, making the supply scarce for the common investor.
Bitcoin, The Store of Value
- Bitcoin is no longer a currency to it’s advocates, but rather a store of value like gold.
- Practically speaking, newer wallets with one whole Bitcoin are disappearing by the hour.
- This limited availability and mass adoption of Bitcoin, combined with huge cash flow from institutional investors has pumped prices skyhigh.
- Experts have predicted that Bitcoin could hit a whopping $200,000 by the time this bull run ends (Est. September 2021).
Ethereum
- Ethereum wasn’t supposed to be a currency system like Bitcoin.
- However, it is outperforming Bitcoin, and fast outgrowing its status as an Altcoin.
- Ethereum is essentially a smart contract platform, an ecosystem to build blockchain projects on.
- This solid use case, combined with the deflationary system that it follows for Ether (ETH), and popularity, has also caught the eyes of big investors.
Ethereum — The Opportunity
- Ethereum has outperformed Bitcoin in this bull run and is gearing up to move past it’s all time high.
- Experts have predicted that the price of Ether (ETH) could hit a tune of $10,000 by the time this bull run ends.
- This makes Ethereum the best opportunity for people looking to make big gains, as Bitcoin becomes the more expensive option.
So, what happens after the Bull Market?
- After any Bull market, there will be a Bear market.
- This means that the prices could fall upto 90% after the market reaches its peak.
- So, it’s better to always take profits as you ride the wave and not wait till the top of the hill.
