The situation is decided by itself. Worry should those who do not know about the crypto currency and did not invest money in it. After all, every day everything develops at a frantic pace! Wink

Why are Bitcoin and alts constantly compared or put into an either/or scenario. Any or all advances made by bitcoin, whatever improvements only enhance and fix the qualities of bitcoin. Most of the various upcoming altcoins are innovating myriad visions simplifying life, giving useful solutions, even working towards the greater good.

No way, just because bitcoin is making upgrades doesn't mean alts will go anywhere. Granted, a lot will probably die off, but there are still better options than btc.
As a currency bitcoin is unsurpassed and we should not expect that to change at all, there are only some coins that do something better but there are not many coins like that,  After all how many versions of Ethereum or monero do we need? We do not need hundreds of versions of the same coins this is why despite the huge number of coins I will say there are only a few dozen projects that are worth our investment and that can survive for the long term.

I wouldn't say anything is better than bitcoin because most have utilities. IoT Chain (ITC) is known as the IOTA of china. great coin to get into and hold. https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/iot-chain/

Funny statement. Smiley It is opinion of skeptics and not professionals. All experts talk about the good and bright future of coins. The future will come, the question is only when.

I think it's not right to say alt-coin is useless because bitcoin because it's alt-coin is giving people who want to have a coin with not so great money and sometimes get it for free

I am not sure if useless is the right word but we should discuss the conflict of interest between bitcoin and alt coins. Lately bitcoin is not helping alt coin investors. People are afraid to switch alt coins because they are not guaranteed to increase yet. We need bitcoin to settle before we see alt coins on the rise again.

These topics come up every few days. A new one every week. Madness.

Bitcoin is higher in value in price considerably yet the Altcoins are still here making money.

Let's not forget BTC dominance was over 63% around October/November time and now its only 38% of the market.


Facts.

We defenitely have a borough of altcoins at the present time that one can consider an avant-garde for the conventional bitcoin, but only a handful of them are logically being accepted in the economy, is it that the remaining altcoins should be considered dangerous for bitcoin, Alts are for the most part speculative vehicles, there are only a few which have anything going on for them

I am also making same shit mistakes always holding so much altcoins and can not sell whenever i have to sell. the purpose of altcoin trading must be always and only increase bitcoin quantity. whenever it is achieved exchanging back to bitcoin is the best thing we have to do.

I think that crypto community will never ever let die anything people can speculate with- altcoins. This is the first thought which had occurred me as soon as l read the topic 's name.  Then logics switched on and I realized that btc doesn't have many of the features other coins do have. So no, alts won't become useless in the nearest future  if ever.

Currently Bitcoin is destroying the most coins because the price is going up. Maybe they will drop some more in the next time but it is a good chance to buy some coins at low levels.

Note, that not every alts are useless. Some of them are using inside platform for services payouts. But alts which want to kill bitcoin and become the star of cryptoworld, they will die or drop to zero value.
The strongest will survive, but another will die. Market can't have a lot of leaders.

Bitcoin had a big retracement not that long ago, when we saw whole market cap drop. And since it is still Bitcoin that we are talking about, he will definetly make his way up first, but don't worry shortly all alts will start to raise. Before that dip, we had a great price raise in altcoins, while even Bitcoin wasn't doing that great, so now it is time for opposite. But just be patient, altcoins will raise shortly.

Bitcoin popularity is the best this coin have now, the demand continue to blow but the supply is really low that is why people loving to hold this more and longer.
Altcoins are depending o bitcoin in terms of price, even they have dollar value, still it depends on how many satoshi it cost.
Maybe there are alot of alts that is better than bitcoin but the popularity will remain on this BTC.
Hope to see some alts to overcome bitcoin popularity sooner.

I think 2018-2019 will die out about 90% of the coins from the market forever, and it will start this summer, perhaps in the fall, I believe in bitcoin as the most reliable asset let everyone say it's old, like a dinosaur slow and everything else, but it still remains the most popular!

My opinion is each and every alts has its unique features so no one can judge crypto currencies it is the plus and also minus point of it but bitcoin cannot stops the development of alts so investing is depends on each and every investors .

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?
I would not say that bitcoin is developing now and it is developing super actively. While everything is happening on the contrary, bitcoin has accumulated a lot of shortcomings, has become slow in the conduct of transactions, they in many cases hang, and commission fees have long been too high.

As for the altcoins, they are generally much more useful than our esteemed bitcoin. Bitcoin does not have those specific functions that the altcoyins can perform and perform.

Yes, for now, and only for niche settings. And this is bound to rapidly change with LN, RS, and other implementations. That's what this thread is about.
Ethereum also announced many changes that will raise its value in the near future. There are other altcoins that will definitely live in the coming years.
What is Ethereum supposed to get other than faster transactions and POS?
