Litecoin is faster, monero is more private, ETH has smart contracts and there are much more altcoin with much more features, even Bitcoin Cash is faster than Bitcoin, but BTC keeps rising much faster.
Don't you think it's just because of the name?

I will take the smartphone as a parable, for example smartphone with the brand of Apple is the most widely used smartphone by the residents. Later, another smartphone emerged that offers more features than the apple smartphone and the price is half the price of apple smartphones . But this is not so much affect on smara tphone sales because people who put quality is still more than people who only see the features and low prices. As with bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, it's just a matter of trust not just brands.

Bitcoin has a longer history, so it's more trustful
I don't think that it will matter in long term. After 50 years no one will care that Bitcoin is 6 years older than Ethereum.

Bitcoin is more decentralized
Yes, Bitcoin doesn't have a dev team or some kind of a single leader, who can easily manipulate the price. But again, that's just only matter of time. Also in other hand on, everything leads to the fact that in the future bitcoin may be centralized in the hands of huge mining farms and mining pools.

Bitcoin is just an application of the blockchain technology in the currency area, and it's similar to the bitcoin cash/lite currency. In addition, the blockchain can be used in many other neighborhoods for information transfer/record/encryption, such as identity/power/property/contract/reputation/logistics, etc.

It's just that bitcoin is known to the public.

indeed.. Bitcoin still has the highest demand in the markets and become the most valuable asset of investment. all those features of altcoins can not make altcoins be better than bitcoin. it can not be said "just because of the name" when the altcoins can not independently stand on its own. blockchain always develops which always support bitcoin. this is why bitcoin is always the best.
Which actually makes strong bitcoins in blockchain networks are the world's miners who tend to choose bitcoin instead of other altcoins. Most people think that only the most profitable bitcoin to be mined, is true because besides the price is high and the increase is also directly to the moon.

The main reason of growing Bitcoin is its value of brand. Bitcoin itself represents the word crypto currency. when you talk about the crypto currency with some one the first thing which comes in mind is Bitcoin and this is the reason which is the main in the good growth of the btc as compared to other coins.

Bitcoin isn't a brand, bitcoin is just digital assets or digital currency but don't had physical form like fiat currency and  aside that it's just a great investment source the price is so fluctuative, it's a virtual coin.but it's becoming more and more popular with no doubt. Other crypto currencies were also popular thanks to bitcoin.

Yes, bitcoin is a good brand, a valuable asset to date, since it is now very useful for many people and a source of finance for everyone. Bitcoins that we know of are of the highest value today, and are widely available in the world.

Presumably it is truly so. Bitcoin was the main winged animal and the request on this coin remains high as a result of individuals truly trust it is the best coin, however you are absolutely right, other than the cost bitcoin has not favorable circumstances, there are numerous different coins which are quicker, more brilliant et cetera. Do you all feel that one day individuals will understand that bitcoin's opportunity passed and move to another coin? I think it is really conceivable, however while whales focused on bitcoin we won't perceive any enormous change.

Bitcoin is the most important crypto money. Everything started with bitcoin. That's why we can call it branding.
Thanks to Bitcoin people earned money. Other crypto currencies were also popular thanks to bitcoin.

Bitcoin isn't a brand, bitcoin is just digital assets or digital currency but don't had physical form like fiat currency and  aside that it's just a great investment source the price is so fluctuative because that it's make bitcoin great to invest well actually another coin is good to but actually i chose bitcoin because the risk of other coin and bitcoin.
That is right, bitcoin is a digital currency which a lot of people are getting into because aside from being profitable investment it is also the best for being the source of income for the people around there. Bitcoin will never become a brand because it has no products because bitcoin stand for itself and bitcoin is an all around cryptocurrency.


why not? The name bitcoin  is still considred as a brand because a brand means a name but of course bitcoin is still a digital currency or a crypto currency.

Of course, this is both a digital asset and a brand at the same time. Bitcoin has become the first and most famous crypto currency and this fact gives it dominance on the market.

being first and dominance doesnt considered him to become a brand because anyone or anything can become a brand in order to have a name.

I don't think its just a brand but I would say it's a great investment source which is old and trustworthy.Though its alternatives are much faster and has more features as compared to bitcoin but you have to keep in mind that when it was invented and how many people have invested in it and for them any drastic change would effect.

Yes it’s valid argument even I thought about that but one more thing is that people always like original form of any things even it has huge value . Bitcoin is oldest and original form of crypto currency first blockchain technology, peer to peer network and decentralised database . So it’s having value people still valuing crypto currency based on bitcoin value.

To the unitiated, bitcoin is cryptocurrency. The iPhone, Kodak, Frigidaire, the dollar and the English language all rolled into one. A few years from now, the products listed here can be bought using bitcoins. It is the gold standard in cryptocurrency.

People only want to make more money and bitcoin currently offers exactly that, and relatively reliably as well, since major players have started to enter the bitcoin market as well. That is enough reason for your average person to invest in bitcoin.
