Bitcoin vs Ethereum ETF five-year showdown: The vastly different outcomes of a $1,000 investment
【Crypto World】With the same 0.25% fee rate and no dividends, two mainstream cryptocurrency ETFs have taken very different paths.
Taking the past year as an example, a fund solely betting on Bitcoin has fallen by -16.1%, while one focused on Ethereum has plummeted by -24.9%. The gap is already quite clear, but looking ahead five years, this divergence becomes even more alarming.
The maximum drawdown for Bitcoin funds in this cycle is controlled at -32.64%, but what about Ethereum funds? It directly drops to -64.02%. Can you imagine? The same investment period, the same market environment—Ethereum’s decline has nearly doubled.
Numbers speak the loudest. Invested $1,000 five years ago, today, the Bitcoin fund account still has $1,804, while the Ethereum fund account only has $800. This is not the worst moment; it’s just the reality. What does this reflect? It shows that Ethereum bears greater volatility pressure than Bitcoin, with deeper corrections and a significantly higher risk factor.

Wait, $1000 in five years is only $800 now? Doesn't that mean my previous ETH position...
---
Bitcoin can still double, Ethereum has dropped by half, the gap is a bit outrageous
---
With the same fee rate, why is the decline so different? Ethereum really can't hold up
---
So should I still hold onto Bitcoin? Let's hear everyone's honest opinions
---
Five years from 1000 to 1800, Bitcoin is stable, but this return rate is...
---
Maximum drawdown -64%? Damn, how much psychological resilience does that require
---
Why is there such a big difference in the same environment? Is there a problem with the Ethereum ecosystem?
---
The data hits hard, only 80% left after five years... Luckily, I didn't fully invest in Ethereum
---
Compared to this, Ethereum really looks like a little brother
Are you looking at practical applications or just focusing on the numbers? These two things are not even the same.
-64% is scary, but who has been holding on for five years? I sold early and took the loss.
Actually, it mainly depends on how you play; it's not just about holding.
BTC is stable, but these data points are too selective.
ETH's fundamentals haven't changed, but seeing the price get beaten down like this is really frustrating.
Forget it, I’d rather do my own research and not trust these comparisons.
