#BTCvsETH – The Titans of Crypto 🔥

When it comes to crypto, two names dominate the space: Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). But how do they stack up against each other?

🔸 Bitcoin (BTC) – The OG

• Launched in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto

• Purpose: Digital gold, a decentralized store of value

• Supply capped at 21 million

• Focused on security, decentralization, and scarcity

🔹 Ethereum (ETH) – The Innovator

• Launched in 2015 by Vitalik Buterin

• Purpose: Smart contract platform for dApps, DeFi, NFTs

• No max supply (currently inflation-controlled post-merge)

• Now runs on Proof-of-Stake after the Merge (energy-efficient)

⚖️ Key Differences:

• Use Case: BTC = value transfer | ETH = programmable blockchain

• Speed: ETH generally faster, but scaling is still ongoing

• Ecosystem: ETH powers Web3, DeFi, NFTs, and more

• Security: BTC is more conservative; ETH is more flexible and evolving

💭 Final Thought:

BTC is digital gold. ETH is digital oil.

Both have their strengths – it’s not about vs, it’s about how they coexist in shaping the future of finance.
