Interview With Bit Digital CEO Sam Tabar: We Sold All Our Bitcoin and Switched Entirely to Ethereum

Bitget, Sam Tabar
Of course, I would prefer to hold Ethereum. Frankly speaking, if Bitcoin and Ethereum were invented on the same day, no one would have heard of Bitcoin today. Unfortunately, Bitcoin was the first token in the crypto world, so it has a first-mover advantage. People now understand that Ethereum is a commodity, so we can openly support Ethereum, which is why you see a lot of very positive buying actions related to Ethereum.
