BitCoin is a great start as a thought of a new currency, and it's the most widely accepted and used digital currency to date, but that doesn't mean it is the best for everything.
BitCoin is extremely slow, taking 15 minutes for a transaction to confirm. There's other problems as well, but this is about alt coins.
Altcoins, at least some of them are actually very useful, some of them don't relate themselves as a currency as all and they utilize the blockchain.
I think those people that bash altcoins here don't understand crypto too well. There's room for many markets, and it's not all about BitCoin anymore. I think altcoins are good because they bring in people who use bitcoin to exchange for altcoins. That's gotta be good for business, especially for the exchanges.
Altcoins could be faster than bitcoin, they could also provide extra layers for security. Whatever the thought, you can create it on the blockchain.

Altcoins are an essential part of the Crypto ecosystem. But altcoins that exist today can't have any challenge for BTC. Bitcoin is the king of Crypto.
Essential role in Crypto currencies is all depends on bitcoin only. I don't where is essential role for altcoins. Could you please explain that.
Yeah I want to hear that too. This altcoins are just copies whichever side you look at it. It is here for creators to make profit of. The others who have successfully gained the trust of many are just here because they are gaining more.
But give those just one big problem and it will all break down.
Let us just leave alts to the definition to where we could make more money.

Why bitcoin needs altcoins?
I just wanted to get your opinions on this one , what do you think Bitcoin would be if there was no Alternative coins such Litecoin & Dogecoin and the others ...
I mean it would be better with or without them Bitcoin would have no value at all ?
i think , no problem with other coin.. bitcoin remain the basis of reference prices from other coin I mean it would be better with or without them Bitcoin would have no value at all ?
bitcoin would be axis with or without other coin
Bitcoin don't need those altcoins because it was making its own way to succeed independently. Many people are joining the world of bitcoin because they want to have a lot of bitcoin. Altcoins are always dependent to Bitcoin and it can succeed without the bitcoin. Bitcoin is the source for everything.
I don't know how would be the bitcoin market without altcoins, but I know that investing in altcoins can be a big disappointment.
always choose the best investment and try to understand what kind of innovation they are planning to implement ,disappointment comes when you invest in scams but there are many genuine business out there you can look intoIt's a risky too, we can see altcoins that don't reach the ICO goal and well, a lot of alts after a pump goes to the ground and never grow again, it's a risky, you have to sell it at the right moment and never bet on only one...
Bitcoin doesn't need altcoins because it was making its way by its own.Altcoins are dependent on Bitcoin which has been seen over and over again on every rise in price of Bitcoin.Bitcoin will always rule the digital/crytpocurrencies no matter how advanced they will be in tech but still will remain under Bitcoin
Be sure that without altcoins the bitcoin couldnt be such sucess, people joining crypto world and investing huge ammounts of bitcoins into others currencies, expecting to get more bitcoins in the process, or get rich, something that only bitcoin allowed in the past, nowadays we can get and make a good result investing into altcoin.

To be on topic, i would say that altcoins are actually a good thing for traders because they can use them for earning more bitcoins with the time... otherwise i don't think there is any need of them for bitcoin...

Essentially there was no altcoin there was only bitcoin but over the course of time since the price of bitcoin got higher and its mining become harder and require a lot of hardware the altcoins came to be to make those who are unable to mine bitcoin to mine other coins and then convert it into bitcoin.
Its okay it will leave. But without competition it wont be that great. Well, even if this altcoins are just copies of bitcoin somehow they got something useful of what bitcoin is now.

Yes I think so, but bitcoin without altcoin can make trader dissapointed. the Trader need to sell their bitcoin and buy altcoin then they sell their altcoin and buy bitcoin again to get profit and gain their bitcoin. So although bitcoin doesn't need bitcoin but the bitcoin trader is still always need altcoin. This is their investment. Si it will be good if altcoin is still exist to grow our bitcoin in trading. How do you think about it friend?

I somehow dont agree with you, it is true bitcoin still rule the crypto currency world, but that doesnt mean it can stay like this forever who knows one day it will be replace by other alt coins, despite that a lot of alt coin seems useless but i think its one of the element that keep cryto currencies world interesting, alt coin has help bitcoin a lot because a lot of people doing trading bitcoin with alt coinI think the only way that bitcoin will be replaced by an altcoin is when there's an unsolvable problem or a problem that takes a lot of time to get resolved in the bitcoin network. The second best crypto-currency will then take over but the name "crypto-currency" will be damaged as well because of the bitcoin take down.

i also think so that the other alt coins have no such a bad effect on bitcoin, and bitcoin ca purview without alt coin, as bitcoin is still the number one crypto currency and there is no need of aly alt coin to give support to bitcoin.
I guess it's easy to predict IMO, bitcoin is the one that would easily survive even without altcoins, it has all the attention and publicity and new user adoption, Altcoin trading is an interesting thing for BTC users but I guess the majority will still use BTC without altcoins, I doubt it would be the other way around though since altcoins are completely dependent on BTC.
