Monero, it has some features that can make it replace Bitcoin, Litecoin is a very good choice too.
None,
It wont dies, just because asciboost miner are investing tons of money/time to try preserve their advantage..
Bitcoin have the Brand and the Brains !
I stick with it,
After this drama, when we'll be in SegWit mode, mining and Bitcoin in general will just be more fair, and more eficient for all..
Dont panic, be patient..

LTC is a cloned code of BTC with a few small tweaks. What will cause BTC death can be applied to LTC just as easily.
politics is the most likely cause of bitcoin fading away. litecoin has the chance of pushing through something that'll open up a huge amount of stuff that's being denied bitcoin.
Why do you believe the same politics cannot happen in LTC? It has the same miner centralization in China. It is, well, a copycat, what else to say. It might do well in the short and mid terms. In the long term it has the same flaws as Bitcoin.
So ltc goes segwit
Btc goes bu
This is a growth influence for ltc. And a growth deterrent for btc.
So a year from now. Ltc is 500 usd a coin btc is still at 1200usd a coin.
Bit fury figures a better ASIC boost . They do it on the sneak. Bitmain figures an even better ASIC boost.
They do it on the sneak.
This huge hidden hash causes a lack of confidence In btc it continues to flatten while ltc grows and passes btc in 2020.
Btc finally goes to segwit too late in 2021. This makes more growth in ltc as it had a head start at segwit.
It is now 2222 with ltc at 1400 usd and btc at 500 usd.
All of above is an exercise of what if. And while possible I don't think it will happen.
I would wait to see what altcoin would be chose as the main currency among all the crypto currencies. There will be always a main currency while all another will be the altcoins. And who will choose it are the big investors, the guys who keep the bitcoin price moving, probably the chineses.
monero
very easy to think, some people would move USD to some altcoin great, and will be back again to bitcoin, bitcoin private think will never die, because circulation usd in cryptocurency too big, and this is a good start for the future.
I think it will appear among them (eth,xrp,dash,xem,ardr) 
It's not even a choice really. XMR is the only other choice for longterm IMO.
I think I would divide my coins between eth and litecoin, maybe a bit of ripple too.
They seem to be the most used ones so far, with high volumes and all. I would still continue day trading on altcoins tough, so I would buy and sell all the coins that looks attractive regardless of bitcoins situation.

I'd say Eth and Doge because both those have mainstream profiles and the key to success is ordinary people knowing your coin exists.

of course it will. but there's a window where segwit could happen and that could be the future. once it's through, it's through.
Once it's through, it could be the end of a decentralized censorship-free coin. The possibility of LN hubs being used to censor transactions is not FUD, it is real. The price of the coin could multiply many-fold regardless. Not everyone is unhappy with censorship, Paypal is still prosperous and they censor like mad men.

there's also a possibility that the people steering litecoin will learn from all the shit that happened to bitcoin and do their best to address it. look at how active charlie lee has been about trying to get segwit through. he's been open to more radical ideas than anyone from core ever was.

LTC, without a doubt.

Bitcoin would never die and many altcoins today are dependent only on bitcoins as their buyers/sellers are only active in the BTC field. I would choose ETH, DASH, EDG and DTB as of now as they have a great potential to reach 0.1-0.2 BTC if there are enough traders on exchanges and their starting value is much higher than what BTC was when it was just launched.
if bitcoin die, what would be the price of other alt in bitcoin? i think all the alt would lose value and die as well or becoming not that good as they are now, all the money are in bitcoin, which make all the other coins valuable, when bitcoin was going to fok with BU, the money were moving from bitcoin to dash and ETH, the strongest, this scenario can repeat itself every time bitcoin is in trouble, but it could also be that the money will move to something else, if bitcoin go down too much, like gold or stocks market
I think LTC, ETH and ardro may be
If bitcoin dies, There are many altcoins available in the market. There are best ones and there are some other that is slowly climbing the market. Like Eth, Clock, or LTC are the best ones right now and some also like ConCoin, XRB and other new alt coins that are coming. So if Bitcoin dies there are many choices you have you can invest in some new alt coins in the market. You just to have choose wisely but coin coin rules. 
There were really a lot that we can be able to get test and testified whether they were suit enough to replace bitcoin As per articles and seeing the news I might go with XMR and ETH. Both were mention in most Alt coins that have higher value when mined. I hope there were still other coins that can exceeds the expectation that bitcoin have offered.
Thats true many altcoins now that can replace bitcoin if ever it dies but I do think thats not going to be soon or its going to be a long long long time or its not going to die. XMR and ETH are good choices for alternate if ever bitcoin dies those are one of the highest value in the market right now. I also think theres also going to be more altcoins in the futures thats going increase in value and definitely can be mined in higher value. We just have to wait and see soon enough.
CONCOIN - The most dangerous cryptocurrency in the world™

in 2013 definitely, these days less so. there are more and more direct fiat gateways for alts and if you go read places like r/ethtrader there are people there who've never touched bitcoin at all.
it would definitely be a disaster but there's enough interest elsewhere to keep things moving.
