reputable companies utilizing Bitcoin’s blockchain technology will help to increase the 
currency’s acceptance. 
Due to these factors, we anticipate Bitcoin moving into a period of greater stability and 
adoption as a currency. This will continue to result in growth, but not at the breakneck speed of 
earlier years. However, it will not have the volatility of its infancy either.
On the contrary, the future of the currency ether depends upon btc to eth   technology 
being used. Ethereum made great strides in having its technology accepted as the blockchain 
standard when Microsoft Azure started offering it as a service in November 2015. Microsoft 
indicated it chose Ethereum over Bitcoin because “[w]hile a platform like Bitcoin has many great 
uses specifically as a Cryptocurrency, Ethereum provides the flexibility and extensibility many 
of our customers were looking for” (Gray, 2015). By offering Ethereum as part of Azure, 
Microsoft is making the technology available to far more users than would otherwise use it. This 
will help to spur further innovations.
One industry that is already developing many uses for Ethereum is the Internet of Things 
(IoT). For example, the Ethereum computer could unlock doors when someone rents an office or 
apartment space (Tual, 2016). As more and more devices are connected to the Internet, the 
ability for them to interact with one another by using Ethereum’s smart contracts becomes ever 
more valuable. In fact, IBM believes that blockchain technology is key to the success of IoT. In 
a time when over a billion devices could be connected to the internet, “the blockchain is the 
framework facilitating transaction processing and coordination among interacting devices. Each 
manages its own roles and behavior, resulting in an ‘Internet of Decentralized, Autonomous 
Things’ – and thus the democratization of the digital world” (IBM Institute for Business Value,
