I think the same.
Altcoin to me is just a way to multiply my bitcoins, sometimes all my bitcoins are invested in a few altcoins but in the end i sell all of them for more bitcoins.

yeah, it is an easy way to make some good money if you are trading altcoins daily, in my opinion such trading might even make me rich in the future

All those FUDsters that where saying year ago how Bitcoin would fail because another currency would take over get proven wrong year after year. The more time Bticoin is alive, the stronger it gets and the bigger the network effect. Sorry but there will not be a Bitcoin 2.0. Bitcoin will go to 100k+ per coin in the next 5 to 10 years, it will absorb all the value researched in the field if not directly through protocol improvements then through sidechains.

Bitcoin will remain the only solid coin. The only coin that survived for the longest time (other coins can't claim this unless they invent a time machine).
There will be alts that pump really hard and make people millionaires, but no alt is going to surpass Bitcoin's strength and solidity. No coin will get a bigger marketcap. In the long term people holding 21+ BTC will be rewarded by history with rich-tier status for seeing the value in it before most people did. Do not let the FUDsters trick your mind or the trolls try to derrail the excellent job being done by Core devs.

Let's continue then our path towards inevitable triumph.

There are quite a lot of actively traded and pricey alt coins around. I think Bitcoin will always remain #1 but they still have competition.

I am not using any other crypto currency at the moment, but I don't think any of them will ever overtake bitcoin. Its the standard of all, its like money now, do you see money competing with anything else? I really don't see that. So I feel bitcoin will hold it own in the market and would probably keep growing.

Bitcoin has been steadily losing market cap dominance, from 90%+ just two years ago to ~80% today.

I could release mysmellyarsecoin tomorrow, print 20 million tokens, hype the shit out of it and put ten up for sale. Hey presto, I've just taken 10% of Bitcoin's market cap.

The coins that have taken Bitcoin's market cap have precisely zero use. That's when they're not forking all over the place.

The main use for all of it is still speculation by a long, long way. Bitcoin is the only one with a sliver of utility. Once that sliver grows, and there really isn't anything else with any utility, then the speculation will recede.

I want to support this arguments. These altcoins were not created as bitcoin upgrade or to innovate crypocurrency. Most of them are simply pump and dump scheme overhyped to seems like 'next big thing'.
News altcoin can possibly more advanced in technical field - for now, because bitcoin can be upgraded. But then never beat one and the most important attribute of BTC - near perfect initial distribution.
Bitcoin was created and was worthless, people noticed is potential and make it valuable. Altcoins are created because their developers want to cut corners and earn fast money.

People can of course reward utility to other coins easily enough. There isn't any reason Doge couldn't do just as good a job, but comes a time when people have to settle on what they're going to reward value to otherwise it all turns to dust.

That's still Bitcoin and every day that it remains Bitcoin makes it stronger.

When it comes to exchange dominance it's just 66.4%.

This trend will probably continue and in a few years there will be people using cryptocurrencies that do not know what bitcoin is.
