I have been bothered for some time by the underperformance of $ETH (+0.86%) compared to $BTC (+0.5%) and I am considering whether I should increase the $ETH (+0.86%) in $BTC (+0.5%) should be swapped. The gap has been widening in recent months.

What are your thoughts on this?

I think in bull markets Eth will out perform and in bear markets it will under perform bitcoin. I think you should own both. I think a 60/40 split would be pretty solid but 75/25 would be less volatile

@DistrictAvarice Possible but we are in a Bull Market... Bitcoin did already 4x since the bottom and ETH is massively underperforming

ETH is 1. dependent on Vitalik and the Foundation and 2. they have no unique selling point because there are enough competitors.
The only use case I can accept for altcoins is stablecoins. And ETH is not even number 1 in this area because the transaction fees are far too high. Here, $TRX is the clear leader in usage.
I have had all my ETH for a long time verkauft🤷‍♂️

EDIT: Please also include Vitalik's latest appearance at a conference in your decision😂

I have also been observing this for some time. However, BTC is already too high again, at least for my "gut feeling". And that has already betrayed me several times :D

Would you get into Bitcoin now or wait a little longer? Because it's relatively high

@Wiktor_06 Selling ETH now and possibly waiting for a setback in BTC would be an idea.

Sometimes you just need a "classic". Everything else is just a gimmick. It's fascinating how things develop. But in the end, the only thing that counts is what lasts. And there are really no two opinions about that. That's how I think!

@DerWolf1983 I now see it that way too. BTC is winning the race.

Overall is $ETH crap, depending on how you start, you can just let it run or not

....you would regret that bitterly. We are very close to the inflection point - BTC dominance will fall and alts will outperform. Keep an eye on the Eth/BTC chart.

@MrBlueSky I see it the same way! ETHBTC chart absolutely at the low point.

@MrBlueSky What makes you so sure that we are at the turning point? The trend is actually still downwards, isn't it?

@PetrosiliusZwackelmann...the turnaround in interest rates and simply "history repeating". That's how every bull run has gone so far. There is no reason to believe that this time is any different.
ETH is not underperforming, but BTC is overperforming due to the additional liquidity provided by the ETFs. Unfortunately, the ETH ETF came at the wrong time. Capital tends to flow into the largest currency.

When the average retail comes as soon as money is cheap again, ETH will also benefit. Just don't let it drive you crazy.

I've also been thinking about it for some time, but I'm 20% down with ETH, which is why I'm still letting the bull run run its course and only then switching over

@Ph1l1pp That was also my thought for a long time. But the underperformance compared to Bitcoin is actually increasing and the gap is growing.

How do you all buy your bitcoin? Unfortunately, scalable is too dubious for me

@BockaufDividenden BSDEX and on a ledger

Bitpanda, has high fees but BaFin license, security... Totally convenient for me as an exchange

Stop crying and wait and see. There's no point in changing now anyway... there was a chance a few weeks ago. So wait and see and don't go crazy.
