In the altcoins, there will really be a lot of changes and I always get to see those conversations that something might happen to replace bitcoin at the top. I cannot fathom what they're thinking if bitcoin has already proved its worth for so many years.
They're comparing it to old tech companies like Nokia, Blackberry, etc. But they cannot realize that bitcoin is no the same from those companies that has to keep with their products up-to-date setting whilst for bitcoin.
It is the market that makes it up-to-date. I'm sure that many from the top 10 will be replaced by the next bull run but one thing will remain, bitcoin as #1.
I think the problem is that it’s an "aim" not reality. I mean you do not have to be higher than bitcoin, but it sure doesn't make sense if you create a project with the sole understanding that you will never replace bitcoin. What I always say about the comparison is thinking yourself as a sports player.
If you are going against Nadal, you can't go in to a game with him thinking that you will lose or he is better, you have to think that he is old now, and he is not as good as he used to be, you are better, you are more talented etc etc, you have to tell yourself that otherwise what is even the point of going up against him, just leave. Same for projects, they need to think they will be above bitcoin one day, they have to, not because it needs to be reality, but because otherwise what’s the point of creating a new one?
