Comparing the Cryptocurrencies
When you look at Ethereum vs Bitcoin, you can see that their goals are largely different. Looking at their market statistics, though, the difference is rather small — Bitcoin’s market capitalization is $147.3b while Ethereum’s market capitalization is $84.2b.
Note: market capitalization (often referred to as “market cap”) is the total value of all coins in existence. For example, Bitcoin’s $147.3b market cap means the value of all Bitcoins together is $147.3b.
So, besides statistics, how exactly do Bitcoin and Ethereum match up?
Many beginners in cryptocurrency believe that Ethereum is only as a financial currency, like Bitcoin. This is wrong for many reasons; let’s look at the basics.
Ethereum vs Bitcoin: The Basics
Here I will look at some of the features and facts of Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Bitcoin
Launched in 2009, Bitcoin was the first cryptocurrency and the first use of blockchain technology;
Bitcoin is a digital currency;
It aims to fix the problems in global finance, often referred to as the “bank of the people”;

It takes minutes to complete Bitcoin transactions.

Ethereum
Launched in 2015, Ethereum’s blockchain widely known synonym is “Blockchain 2.0”;
Smart contracts program the transactions (which I will explain further in this guide);
Its smart contracts eliminate the need for third parties in many systems, not just financial ones;
It provides a platform to build smart-contract apps (known as dApps);
It provides a programming language, called Solidity, to build the dApps with;
Ether is its currency, it powers transactions on the Ethereum blockchain;
Ether is highly liquid (its trading volume is $2.4m in the last 24 hours);
Ethereum’s transactions take seconds to complete.
Zero’s second function is as a number in its own right: it is the midpoint between any positive number and its negative counterpart (like +2 and -2). Before the concept of zero, negative numbers were not used, as there was no conception of 'nothing' as a number, much less 'less than nothing.' Brahmagupta inverted the positive number line to create negative numbers and placed zero at the center, thus rounding out the numeral system we use today. Although negative numbers were written about in earlier times, like the Han Dynasty in China (206 BCE to 220 BCE), their use wasn’t formalized before Brahmagupta, since they required the concept of zero to be properly defined and aligned. In a visual sense, negative numbers are a reflection of positive numbers cast across zerobitcoin авито monero free bitcoin life окупаемость bitcoin bitcoin валюты vpn bitcoin rpc bitcoin проверка bitcoin reindex bitcoin bitcoin вебмани bitcoin pay monero gpu аналоги bitcoin bitcoin луна bitcoin scan bitcoin png

All Bitcoin transactions are stored publicly and permanently on the network, which means anyone can see the balance and transactions of any Bitcoin address. However, the identity of the user behind an address remains unknown until information is revealed during a purchase or in other circumstances. This is one reason why Bitcoin addresses should only be used once. Always remember that it is your responsibility to adopt good practices in order to protect your privacy.purse bitcoin monero обменять usb tether ethereum кошелька bitcoin список bitcoin btc
