NTFS will be developed only if we have developer assigned to it. But we do not have one, until CoderTrevor decides to continue his work. At the moment I see him on hiatus.
In case of BTRFS we have a developer who is assigned to it, and thus it will make progress. And BTEFS driver is already in mature and in feature complete state.
Winbtrfs* There is a difference between btrfs and Winbtrfs. btrfs has been stable for a long time now, but only recently winbtrfs was made stable, with 1.0 released September 4th 2017. btrfs was also made by a variety of people and organizations (facebook, oracle, intel, and of course red hat and Linux foundation) where as winbtrfs is only being made by one person.
Anyways, it was reported that btrfs is slightly faster then ntfs. btrfs also has higher limitations then ntfs. ntfs = volume 256tb, file size 16eb and around 4 million max files vs btrfs = 16EB for both volume and file size and around 18 quintillion max files. btrfs is also more evolve in general as the last updates to ntfs were in 2001 when XP was released vs btrfs still being updated to this day.
However, MS will probably eventually replace ntfs with ReFS, as that has become the standard for the server edition of windows now. I don't know much about ReFS other then it has no limits to max files and the volume and max file size are pretty much tripled compared to btrfs.
