Bitcoin maximalist here. Tell me why I should diversify a single BTC on ETH on the next dip (I dont intend to hold long term, I just want to make more BTC)

Because the bitcoin bubble is going to pop any day now.

>> No.2177222

Because you want to make money? Lol, ETH is the future. Can't believe it hasn't overtaken BTC yet. The only reason it hasn't IMO is because the largest of the whales of BTC are preventing it from doing so.

Bitcoin and Eth have different advantages and disadvantages. Bitcoin is meant more as a payment system and deflationary asset, Ethereum is designed to execute distributed smart contracts. Bitcoin doesn't have a virtual machine built in but it also isn't prone to all the potential bugs and hacks that go with that. Bitcoin's governance is less centralized as well, which is both good and bad -- it's hard to make changes to the protocol and it is more conservative to making changes than Eth. This is important to people using it as a store of value, the don't want their money disappearing due to some new change that got introduced too soon.

Both ETH and Bitcoin have their place and the future is probably good for both of them.

I mean BTC is probably gonna have a huge dip when the Chinese can finally trade their stuff in June, so you might as well get in on something that won't dip nearly as hard before that happens

Just give me anything that could pump ETH. Raiden, shardding, the PoS change? even tho that will trigger a crash in my book.

Just something to speculate upon.

Bitcoin will still be dominate as long as exchanges still trade in exclusively BTC pairs. It will keep rising with the rest of the cryptocurrency space because of this. Media attention to the crypto space will always focus on Bitcoin, because its a household name at this point. This will continue to attract buyers.

IMO, ETH won't be able to overtake BTC's market cap unless this current crypto bubble pops.

I can see two major threats that would cause the bubble to pop: Poloniex pulling a Mt Gox, or BTC's scaling issues rendering it unusable.

ETH, which one?
You got the one managed like a central bank where management overrides contracts or the one that makes you worry about the shitty math it runs on?
I also believe smart contracts are the future, but rule of code hasn't been perfected yet.
