your opinion is highly appreciated.
if you had asked this before 2017, I would have said yes. but I have been observing increasing dissonance between the alt and bitcoin markets. they dont always move inversely now, and some coins break out nowadays, but actually stay up. before, that spike would be followed by a slow retraction, unless btc price came up with the alt.
certain majors (eth comes to mind first) simply dont need bitcoin anymore to survive. I might would say the same of ltc.
and I have to wonder what the actual adoption rates are for the two coins. very few bitcoin icos, not as many bitcoins startups like there used to be.
