Why is Bitcoin still so dominant years later? What does it do so well that it has over 6 times the value of Ethereum?

Is it really just first mover advantage?

Yes. User base and mining base is its strength.

Bitcoins = harder to mine, means lower supply coming into the market = driving prices up.

Bitcoin makes sense to normies. Bit (digital) + Coin (currency). Ethereum sounds like a gamer fap session.

What has ethereum even achieved?

Bitcoin is processing 400k transactions per day doing the job that banks and wire systems do but faster and better with no questions asked.

On top of that contrary to ethereum it's inflation level is automatically reduced not controlled by anyone.

And the founders had strong ideals and not built it as a pump and dump.

Litecoin is the closest thing to it not eth or any meme contract.

If you don't understand why it's important with consensus on which crypto deemed the store of value token and why it's BTC, you are never ever going to make it. Imagine what would happen to this space if all of a sudden LTC is the new king. It's never going to happen, cause at a certain point you are putting money into something that will send the space into a total shit storm. It's either BTC as the go to SOV, or nothing at all.

The same reason Google is still the dominant search engine despite the fact that it's heavily censored, heavily monitored, and known to be one of the most corrupt corporations that currently exists. Feelings don't care about your facts
