Do you think there is room for two currencies to grow in demand, shrink in supply exponentially? Will they cut into each other's market share?
Bitcoin has been proven and can be divided into tiny fractions, given the fact it is working it seems a safe bet for the future. It has failures, though. From an economic standpoint, if zcash replaces it in underground markets, will bitcoins legal uses keep its demand high? Will it continue to grow from speculation?
Bitcoin isn't private, tumbling it has huge risks and the end user has lots of security demands to remain anonymous. It may not be the best for underground uses whcih may have an economic impact. zcash is bitcoin but with its flaws ironed out.I do suspect it will grow like bitcoin but I'm interested in the dynamics.
Thoughts?
Yeah, bitcoin. To me, any altcoin will be not pass the price of bitcoin. Certain altcoins become popular during certain periods.
Litecoin was a very popular period. Now zcash is very popular. But when the prices of the altcoins increase, the price will increase in proportion to the bitcoin.
That's why my thinking is in the direction of bitcoin.
