At one point I had over 3000 LTC when it wasn't worth anything, believe me, I know.

Alt systems are just acting as a ponzi, all dumb money.

If anything forks will be created within Bitcoin itself to solve an issue people aren't sure of.

So you say you had 3000 LTC, meaning you made a mistake selling them before they appreciated. Why would anyone believe you then and what exactly do you know since you didn't know to keep your LTCs and sold too early? LTC seems to be doing fine, is it because you sold too early and now biting your elbows for that you wish death for alt-coins? They wouldn't care about that, they'll keep surviving and diluting bitcoin value. Because technically they are equal to bitcoin, they only lack in infrastructure, but that's just a matter of time. Not all alt-coins will survive, only those that have serious devs and community behind them, but for sure bitcoin won't be the only game in town.

This goes back to the ponzi effect.

Litecoin has no other purpose but to store fictional value until it is depleted and taken over by the most powerful currency system in which will be Bitcoin or government money.

Multiple currencies cannot continue to exist, or stability issues will continue to arise within all value systems.

Alt-coins will take care of the booming too fast issue.

Alt coins won't survive. Bitcoin can identify problems and create fixes faster than any government or business can keep up with.

We need to hardfork and boost the block reward.

Yeah best idea ever.
Why don't we push the limit from 21M to 21 billions as well, there are not enough coins for everybody right?
This was sarcastic, if it wasn't clear.

Increased use will lead to higher transaction fees and slow the rate of adoption.

Will this be like the housing bubble?

You don't know what a housing or general economic bubble is do you?

Please show mathematical or historical evidence that the Bitcoin economy booming would be a bad thing.

Yeah.  And is this a booming price?  Booming usage?  Booming mining?

BTC needs to boom fast, to attract more investors.

Or gradually grow steadily.

Boobs are good. It's the crashes that follow that are bad. Or not depending on how you take advantage of the situations.

FTFY.

Ha. What crashes are bad with boobs? Unless you lose concentration whilst driving.

There are many road traffic accidents caused by men gawping at women on the side of the road.

Too many booms and busts may cause people to not take BTC seriously and put BTC to bed.  I'd rather a slow steady gain in acceptance, as I believe it has done so far.

I think anybody who believes in BTC feels this way, but booms are just a natural process. It'll be a wild ride but hopefully it'll steady at some point.
