I believe Bitcoin has a future in long term. It proved itself in the past years and it is getting widely popular. It just has a transaction fee problem atm.

What about the altcoins? Who does use them for real? Will people use them in the future for real purpose?

I only have a hope for ethereum and litecoin, but not for the rest. I am not even sure for eth and ltc.

If bitcoin solves the reansaction fee and time problem, I doubt eth and ltc even have a future.
In actual reality we only see toward those coins which are having better marketing and better potential and better investment .
Here you saw only Etherium and litecoin Because these are old and better coins so people knows about it much and today have better reputation and value like bitcoin have .
Here we can say that  beside the bitcoin , ehterium , litecoin  we have better option as the coin are dash coin , stratis , Digibyte ( currently at low value but will gain market soon ) ,reddcoin  etc .
Since there are another better coins but they are under the progess and they will come front of us eye clearly .
So wait for the better competition in the future until we can see the better option to choose the altcoin like bitcoin .

There are other coins that has potential to grow but of course the success of the altcoins depends on the investors who invest and believe in altcoins. Well i think most investors would use altcoins in trading as of the moment because we still doesn’t know which of them would go farther.

Yep, Altcoins too have Bright future, they come up with different Ideas to utilize their coins, tokens, etc. Here comes we are seeing more than 200 ICO's per month, but most of them are scams as they run like Ponzi programs.

You can take a look some of the Altcoins like Hero Coin, Car Taxi , Smoke Exchange NEO and some other, but please check their roadmap and previous experience. Most of the ICO's are coming to scam investors without products or no knowledge even how to success.

If you ask about whether Altcoin can succeed or not, it is the same as you're asking if cryptocurrency will succeed or not. Essentially, cryptocurrency will be one part of the economic future in the world. So when Bitcoin grows rapidly, Altcoin will also be known and become a tool for investment just like Bitcoin.

But there is also false or fake Altcoin that many circulating out there, Those are just another form of HYIP that requires you to invest but will be a scam sooner or later. We should only take care the Altcoin that already famous and succeed.

It seems there are lot of altcoins. It is really hard to predict anything. (Recently I picked one Adzcoin. It seemed to grow well, but suddenly started dropping and still struggling to get up.)

At one stage I thought that I made a good investment, but now I am little embarrassed.

Meanwhile, it is said our Government body, is thinking of it's own cryptocurrency. If it happens, that might be my next choice. Until then, I just hold on to what I have.

Yes, them having a future. Some have useful cases and some will be scams. Look for the ones that will help our society grow instead of those promising lucrative returns.
Not all of them has a good future there are altcoins that are created who does not have a good road map, we have to be selective when investing our money because if we are smart and we will be able to invest on an altcoins that has a great potential, we will be able to grow with them when they will be successful. Altcoins that has a great volume are most likely a trusted one, we should put our money with those trusted already as the support of the community is bigger.

Also, not only focus on the popular ones because there are low volume that are underrated that can make a big progress as the development continues.

Do altcoin have a future? I need to break it to you if you don't know already! Altcoin is the futute. Look at all the token coming out recently, Horizon! Decision making,  voting on the blockchain, externity and rest! In the future these are the multinationals.

There is many altcoins that promises great utility in the future
if properly supported and the team delivers than they might become very usefull and will have great value in the future
some are already overvalued (be careful)
some are undervalued but you have to do your own research to find them

Not all the altcoins will have future but ya there are many altcoins that are rising up and will definitely have future. And the reason behind their success will be their projects. The projects are really very good. So definitely they will also grow.

there are so many altcoins which are gradually growinng and people are willing to trade these coins and become earn enough amount of money. altcoin are very popular and used for trading activities and big investors are investing now in these altcoins because this time they are very reasonable value and once it is popular then the prices will be high which can't bearable for small investors.

I agree, altcoins have grown big lately and most traders are buying altcoins because they are hoping in time these altcoins will be worth something in the future. Many investors also do invest in altcoins especially those coins who have great projects and they could tell it could be big a few months after its ICO.

I think in short term every thing is possible as we experienced high increase in prices of most of major altcoins such as Ethereum. But in long term everything depends on what will happen to Bitcoin.
In my opinion in future we will have only one acceptable cryptocurrency. If Bitcoin can solve its problems like high transaction fees that you mentioned, It will be that cryptocurrency. If not we should wait for another cryptocurrecncy that will replace Bitcoin.
We should also consider another important issue which is governments decisions. In future after accepting bitcoins by entire world, Governments would like to have more control on the system. We should wait for their decision whether they want bitcoin to be that major cryptocurrency or not.

thanks for the great answer. I think esactly the same.

One acceptable cryptocurrency is the future. And government pressure into that coin is the thing to discuss in the future.

But if governments try to control that system, alternative coins will survive in order to eliminate the pressure..

Clearly, you do not realize we have bitcoin because we do not want the governement to tell us what we can or cannot do. Unless they stop all internet, they cannot stop us. If needed we can expand zcash/zerocoin and ignore their dictate.

Maybe if our government change our economic status it possible we have better future in bitcoin and as well the alternative coins like eth,bitcoin cash litecoin etc. better acceptance to the change the digital era of crytocurrency in the world.Unless we support them to become one accept cryptocurrency.
Honestly, if the government can accept Bitcoin at now, we still can not using Bitcoin for daily. First, Bitcoin can not use for daily because it has high fees, need much time to wait confirm any transaction (average ~15 mins per block with highest fees). Second, Bitcoin system still bad and small, it can not receive a huge of numbers transaction in a short time. There are many examples can prove this problem.

If the alt coins have traction across a large user base, I think it can have future.

For instance, these two projects have a large user base:
   KIN tokens are for KIK messenger: https://kin.kik.com
   AppCoins are for Aptoide app store and for other Android stores: https://appcoins.io

Comparing their popularity / impact with Ethereum using Google trends:

In vain you doubt, well, of course, now that bitcoin is in the lead, then everything is straight in shock, but he fell down altogether, I certainly do not think that it will be but at 3 times and then people will increasingly popularize the altcoins, prospect.
