ETH对比BTC有什么优点和缺点？

比特币是以电子方式创建（挖掘）的最知名且最古老的独立数字支付手段。比特币不是物理打印的，而是由世界上许多用户使用计算机创建的，并存储在数字钱包中。

比特币与普通货币的区别

加密货币[1]能够在没有中央管理的情况下实现数字支付交易。加密货币和普通货币之间的基本区别是，像银行或政府这样的个人团体并不是唯一能够加速或操纵货币单位的生产。这实际上消除了通货膨胀。另一个重要的区别是加密货币的开发过程。

由于密码货币只存在于数字中，并且与普通货币相比不会被打印，因此创建过程是不同的。这就是所谓的采矿。

以太坊是什么？

以太坊是一个较新的加密货币，与比特币[2]一起，是三种最有价值和最高市值的货币之一。截至2017年5月，有80亿美元。以太坊的货币单位是以太。和比特币一样，以太坊也基于区块链技术。

以太坊是一个执行智能合约的分散平台：恰恰是这些不同的应用程序完全按照其编程执行，没有停机，审查，欺诈或来自第三方的干扰。这些应用程序在自定义区块链上运行，这是一个强大的共享和全球网络基础架构。

截至2017年11月底，市值超过430亿美元，价格为450美元。

购买以太坊采矿投资

与比特币相比，以太坊不是纯粹的加密货币，而是由智能合约组成的某些应用程序的平台。以太坊的目标是使用比特币区块链技术分散数据。以太坊交易可以包括分散运行的完整程序。

以太坊如何运作

以太坊分散数据。想象一下通过WhatsApp发送消息给你的一个朋友。该消息从您的手机发送到WhatsApp的中央服务器，然后转发给您的朋友的手机。由此带来的风险是，WhatsApp的服务器坏了，或者想在那里读某个人，这样你的信息就不安全了。那将是一个中央网络。

在以太坊[3]原则上发送消息时，即与分散的网络，它会看起来像这样。你给我发消息。信息被分成小块并发送到全球各地的个人电脑分布式网络。没有人可以访问完整的消息，但只收到其中的一小部分。

该消息然后被重新组合并在收件人的手机上收到。每台参与计算机都会以“以太”货币的形式获得小额奖励，用于提供服务或提供计算能力。

以太坊有什么特别之处？

像保时捷，IBM，博世和思科这样的公司已经在开发自己的以太坊区块链项目。联合国也已经使用以太坊区块链在难民营发行食品券。以太坊提供了巨大的潜力来显着简化流程，使其更加高效并实现自动化。这可能会改变，革命甚至摧毁整个行业。与比特币作为纯粹的数字支付手段形成对比的是，以太坊在行业中一直非常受欢迎。

同时还有一个以太坊联盟。以太坊联盟[4]是一个致力于进一步发展和传播以太坊的公司，行业专家和科学家的全球协会。除此之外，这个联盟还支持其他以太坊项目并陪伴公司。

需求越大，Ether就越值钱。与比特币相比，以太坊目前仍然非常便宜

Bitcoin is the best-known and oldest independent digital means of payment that is created (mining) electronically. Bitcoins are not physically printed, they are created by many users worldwide using computers and stored in a digital wallet.

Difference Bitcoin to Normal Money

Cryptographic currencies[1] enable digital payment transactions without central administration. An elementary difference between cryptocurrencies and normal money is that individual groups such as banks or governments are not alone able to accelerate or manipulate the production of currency units. This virtually eliminates inflation. Another important difference is the development process of the cryptocurrencies.

Since the cryptographic currencies only exist digitally and are not printed compared to normal money, the process of creation is different. It's called mining.

What is Ethereum?

Ethereum is a newer cryptocurrency and, together with Bitcoin[2], is one of the three most valued and highest market capitalization currencies. As of May 2017 8 billion. The currency unit of Ethereum is Ether. Like Bitcoin, Ethereum is based on the blockchain technique.

Ethereum is a decentralized platform that executes intelligent contracts: Exactly these are different applications that are executed exactly as they are programmed, without downtime, censorship, fraud or interference from third parties. The applications run on a custom blockchain, a powerful shared and global network infrastructure.

At the end of November 2017, market capitalization is over USD 43 billion and the price is USD 450.

Buying Ethereum mining investment

Compared to bitcoin, ethereum is not a pure cryptocurrency, but a platform for certain applications consisting of smart contracts. Ethereum's goal is the decentralization of data using Bitcoin Blockchain technology. Ethereum transactions can include complete programs that run decentrally.

How does Ethereum work

Ethereum decentralizes data. Imagine sending a message to one of your friends via WhatsApp. The message is sent from your mobile phone to WhatsApp's central server and then forwarded to your friend's mobile phone. Risk thereby, the server of WhatsApp is broken or would like to read someone there so your message would not be safe. That would be a central network.

When sending messages on the Ethereum[3] principle, i. e. with a decentralized network, it would look like this. You send me a message. The message is split into small pieces and sent to a worldwide distributed network of individual computers. No one has access to the complete message but receives only a minimal fraction of it.

The message is then reassembled and received on the recipient's mobile phone. Each of the participating computers receives a small reward in the form of the "Ether" currency for its service or for providing computing power.

What is so special about Ethereum?

Companies such as Porsche, IBM, Bosch and Cisco are already working on their own Ethereum-based blockchain projects. The UN has also already used the Ethereum blockchain to issue food stamps in refugee camps. Ethereum offers an enormous potential to significantly simplify processes, make them more efficient and automate them. This can change, revolutionize or even destroy entire industries. In contrast to Bitcoin as a pure digital means of payment, Ethereum has been very popular in the industry.

Meanwhile there is an Ethereum Alliance. The Ethereum Alliance[4] is a global association of companies, industry experts and scientists committed to the further development and dissemination of Ethereum. Among other things, this alliance also supports other Ethereum-based projects and accompanies companies.

The more the demand increases there, the more Ether will be worthwhile. In contrast to Bitcoin, Ethereum is currently still very cheap
