Topic: Bitcoin making alts useless (Read 1721 times)
I thought differently, because the altcoin was born so much, they made Bitcoin useless. In the future, altcoin will grow stronger than Bitcoin, ETH, DASH, RIPPLE, LITECOIN ... etc. These potential coins will overtake BTC in the next few years, they will make the BTC become invalid on the market.
I disagree with you on this point. It is not that Bitcoin makes other tokens worthless, but that merchants that produce these tokens do not make their tokens valuable, because these merchants have not paid any price for the tokens. For example, let it be applied in life, even if you can only buy a chewing gum! I think this is the fundamental reason!
not useful if Altcoins is not open for Bitcoin. because Bitcoin itself is the parent of all Altcoins, they (Altcoins) learn all of its networks from Bitcoin.
just look now, where Bitcoin go up then Altcoins go up and Bitcoin then Altcoins down. it's a sign of his Bitcoin mains of all Altcoins.

In fact, some altcoins can be very useful but not when they do not become in the level of grandfather bitkin.It's like equating for example pineapple with an airplane or chicken with a tank.Yet every coin and token is yours for our earnings!
But btc and alts have two drastically different purposes. With btc being way more expensive for one, so I wouldn't say that btc makes alts useless. It all depends on your requirements and what you're looking for.
Even if we don't put Bitcoin into the arguement most of these so called ALtcoins are useless and I pity some people because they will wake up one day and see that they Altcoin stash worth close to Zero. The level of investment in Bitcoin is so big and this can't be rival by any ALtcoin projects so far
when bitcoin grows and reaches 20,000 dollars - altcoins will cost several times more than now!
Bitcoin is the leading and pioneer cryptocurrency so people trust in it more than any altcoin. But I think some altcoins will still be here and surviving in some years time.
Of course other altcoins will have a good future. Bitcoin is just the first crypto currency, but altcoins have much more advanced technology and this will make a difference in the future. Someday bitcoin will lose first place.Altcoins are still having a good time, making users happy with their uses. Personally I prefer to transact via Litecoin, Dashcoin. Very recently, I transacted via Digibyte, and believe me, it was super fast and cheap if compared to Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the first currency and the primary one, people easily get Bitcoin, which is then converted to altcoins or investment or transacting purpose. I don't think Bitcoin could ever make altcoins useless, not taking the various ICOs into account though. ICOs nowadays are completely different with various motives, so comparing new altcoins, I don't have any answer or feelings right now, that's speculative.

Bitcoin can not have other features of altcoin. Because bitcoin has been used for a long time. when new cryptop forms. So pricing is dependent on bitcoin. I believe in the future. Some altcoins will develop over bitcoin. wait for it
We probably have multiple alts that one could consider as better version of bitcoin but as you're noticing, bitcoin is gaining more popularity and a fast growth. The price is not a measure of a coin success so what I'm referring to here is the the number of ATMs, exchanges, stores, services, and people accepting it.
So even If we have some people using alts currently because they believe they are better then bitcoin (which may be true), bitcoin is evolving and the development is super active and exciting times are coming. I honestly believe that this make alts useless (say, by the end of the year), your thoughts?

This simply means that bitcoin is still king. Im not saying that other alts are of no use or less useful than bitcoin. It is still and always the first crypto, so as to say, the alts that can last long are those that have proven itself useful, have real use case and active development team and strong community backing it up.
I belive and dream some day Bitcoin make 90% alts useless and take their volume but it’s still too difficult to make any protocol changes in btc.
Why do you want to volumize bitcoin with altcoin to be useless? I think altcoin also helps the cryptocurrency worthy and besides new investors can have an option to buy cheaper one. If ever the investor wants to invest in crypto they won't get too stressed because of the volatility of bitcoin. We know the fact that it has random cases why bitcoins falls and with so much unpredictable matters. So hoping that bitcoin won't make altcoins useless.

I think that most of the altcoins only really have a practical purpose: to generate a lot of money for their developers, because the current boom in the market of cryptos is only a reflection of the avidity of many people to get on the train that promises to take them to the promised land of El Dorado. But I am convinced that as soon as this frenzy passes, very few coins will survive as the great champions of the market, and among them will always be the bitcoin.
It is just that because of bitcoins popularity, altcoins tend to be treated as useless because people will most likely sell their altcoins to bitcoin 
Bitcoin maybe popular but i think altcoins are more useful because alts have a different usage while bitcoins main purpose is only for a currency usage .
all kinds of alts have a different service that can be able to serve every human kind with the aid of blockchain technology. Alts are also verry suitable for trading or investing purposes because they are a hell more cheaper than bitcoins.
that is only a few reasons why i can say that alts are far more better than a bitcoin.
Bitcoin is never going to kill altcoins.
In fact, altcoins are never going to disappear because they are like the bitcoin 2.0, they are much more improved.

ETH is more useful than BTC
