Bitcoin isn’t just safe to keep your funds but it keeps you in charge of your funds. despite the fact that bitcoin is a decentralized currency many human organizations and Authorities still seek for it and use it a means transactions (sending and receiving). I have no doubt that with these uniqueness the future of bitcoin is bright and promising for those who puts interest in it.
You are correct that BTC is unique and if anybody first come to cryptoworld he must first know about BTC nothing else. BTC covers about 72-5% of whole crypto market and rest of others. This is because of its uniqueness and sprite. Now anybody in crypto market can easily trust on it and can invest as he wants. There is no barrier do everybody should follow him as no 3rd party involve here.
