Why do people compare Bitcoin to “digital gold” and call Ethereum the “world computer”?
First, the definitions: Bitcoin uses proof of work (PoW), while Ethereum switched from proof of work to proof of stake (PoS) in September 2022 through “The Merge.”
The principle: Many tokens and DeFi applications are built on Ethereum and its Layer 2 networks, while applications on Bitcoin’s main chain are mostly focused on transferring and storing value.
$BTC and $ETH are the native coins of Bitcoin and Ethereum, respectively, and they have different design goals.
Don’t just follow along because everyone else is doing it.
