#BTCvsETH #BTCvsETH

Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) dominate the crypto market but serve different purposes. BTC, launched in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto, is primarily a decentralized digital currency and store of value, often called "digital gold." Its focus is on security, scarcity, and peer-to-peer transactions. ETH, introduced in 2015 by Vitalik Buterin, goes beyond payments, enabling smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps) on its blockchain. While BTC is deflationary with a capped supply of 21 million, ETH has no fixed supply but recently introduced burning mechanisms. Both are crucial for blockchain innovation, with BTC leading in market cap and ETH in utility.
