Why Jim Cramer Likes Ethereum Over Bitcoin

The digital form of the Jobs application requires the Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) network for purchase, Jim Cramer said Thursday on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”

“You have to buy those kinds of things with Ethereum,” he said. 

If non fungible tokens continue to increase in popularity, investors are going to want to own Ethereum, Cramer said: “You don’t buy Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC), buy Ethereum.”

At the end of June, Cramer told CNBC that he purchased Ethereum after Bitcoin continually showed support around the $30,000 level.
