Why do some people call Bitcoin “digital gold” and compare Ethereum to a “world computer”?
Bitcoin launched in 2009. It was designed as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, with deliberately limited scripting capabilities.
To use Ethereum, you need to have some ETH on hand to pay for gas; Bitcoin transaction fees are paid in BTC.
$BTC and $ETH are the native coins of Bitcoin and Ethereum, respectively, but they serve different purposes.
