Key Differences
Let’s look at the main differences between Ethereum vs Bitcoin, some of which you can see by comparing the basics I just mentioned!
Their Concepts
When you think of Bitcoin, think “digital money”. When you think Ethereum, think “smart contracts”. This is the easiest way to understand and remember the primary difference between Bitcoin and Ethereum!
Their Purposes
Bitcoin is a store of value and a way to send money to someone. Ethereum is also a way to send money to someone, but only when certain things happen.
Ethereum also differs by serving as a building platform for dApps/smart contracts, which allow it to send tokens that represent values. These values can be things other than digital currencies, making it different from Bitcoin.
Their Transactions
Bitcoin’s transactions look like this:
Jade sends 10 BTC (Bitcoins) to Pete.
Ethereum’s transactions run on smart contracts and look like this:
Send 10 ETH (Ether) from Jade to Pete if Jade’s balance is 15 ETH and the date is 12.01.2020.
So, Bitcoin’s transactions are manual and Ethereum’s transactions are automatic / programmable!
The Speed of the Transactions
Ethereum’s block time (transaction speed) is just seconds. Bitcoin’s block time, however, is minutes.
The Currencies: Ether vs Bitcoin
Ether is designed to fuel the Ethereum network and power transactions — think of it as gas.
Bitcoin is used to be the value of real-world transactions — think of it as money.
Their Coin Supply
Bitcoin is limited to 21,000,000 coins. This creates supply and demand, which is healthy for a store of value.
Ethereum, however, is not limited. The production of Ether is continuous. The supply of Ether will slow down a lot over time though.
Vitalik Buterin, the founder of Ethereum, stated that the total number of coins will not reach more than 100,000,000 ETH in the “foreseeable future”.
Their Ages
Ethereum is 6 years newer than Bitcoin and is further advanced.

Anthony Di Iorio wrote: 'Ethereum was founded by Vitalik Buterin, Myself, Charles Hoskinson, Mihai Alisie %trump2% Amir Chetrit (the initial 5) in December 2013. Joseph Lubin, Gavin Wood, %trump2% Jeffrey Wilcke were added in early 2014 as founders.' Formal development of the software began in early 2014 through a Swiss company, Ethereum Switzerland GmbH (EthSuisse). The basic idea of putting executable smart contracts in the blockchain needed to be specified before the software could be implemented. This work was done by Gavin Wood, then the chief technology officer, in the Ethereum Yellow Paper that specified the Ethereum Virtual Machine. Subsequently, a Swiss non-profit foundation, the Ethereum Foundation (Stiftung Ethereum), was created as well. Development was funded by an online public crowdsale from July to August 2014, with the participants buying the Ethereum value token (Ether) with another digital currency, Bitcoin. While there was early praise for the technical innovations of Ethereum, questions were also raised about its security and scalability.index bitcoin эмиссия bitcoin цена ethereum обмен tether
