Yes eth is currently faster but is also having issues with rising fees, complicated fee limits (operations can fail because you set your gas limit too low) among other things. Most projects aren't live yet but once they actually go live we will start to see major issues with the fee structure of Ethereum imo.

Both Steem and Bitshares have far better fee structures.

The users decide the fees. And I'm happy to inform that I sent btc from my bitshares account the other day and it was both quick and not frightening expensive.

Could Raiden Network change that?
