Ethereum is much better than Ripple, so I approve.
I need to admit, that I disagree, currently. The thing is: Ethereum can
currently most be used for Prediction Markets via Augur only. No Asset
system has really been deployed yet and if there was a DEX in ethereum,
it would have less liquidity than BitShares for sure.
So in the end, Ripple does have more utility for sure (currently).
However, the potentials are surely a lot bigger for Ethereum but I don't
see any reason why Ethereum is worth what it is unless for it's
speculative properties in regards to POS staking in the future.
Also Litecoin really needs to die.
Just bring in som eliquidity to ANY other token in BTS and we can easily
replace LTC as the "fast" abitrage backend.
