He could be right, bitcoin develoment is slow and will not really change too much, we see altcoins coming out with new ideas all the time I think within the next two years we might just see that one alt that takes over, bitcoin will not die but would act as an investment rather than a coin for everyday use.

All speculation but it is just a matter of time until something else happens.

Another person that wants to put fear to the new investors. This is a so called black propaganda I can't even see that bitcoin is going to be overcome by another alt coin or some sort of the same crypto/digital money. He is just trolling around so that most of the hoarders once heard his speculation will be feared and sell the coins they've got.

The only way that I see that he will be correct is if a central bank or large company releases a coin.
If Apple or Paypal migrated their payment services onto a cryptocurrency, then I think they would be worth more than Bitcoin is now.

The current crop of Alts aren't going to overtake Bitcoin. ETH was a decent idea that has been poorly executed. Something similar could be successful, but I don't see at the moment what that is.
Many alts have no chance of making it big from the outset as they have feature, such as anonymity, that will never be accepted by the mainstream.

All the altcoins exist because of bitcoin.Altcoins are getting improved,bitcoin is getting improved as well.
The altcoins will never have the level of trust which bitcoin has.
Anyway,after 2 years bitcoin might be destroyed by governments,central banks or something else.

Let him make a guess, its his opinion and he has the right to speak his own opinion. Probably he was worried about the effects of the release of the fiat digital currency in the market, and with the banks as its author there has to be some pull of investors from bitcoin. But I am seeing a different view though bitcoin may be affected by the fiat digital currency it will survive the wave and will again prove himself as the king of digital currency.

I think he will be correct.

I see no evidence that this will take place. I think he is guessing just like the rest of us.

Might be true. With new coins like Spectrecoin , Spectrecash that takes the best of zcash, monero, etc and makes it its own, it basically the best of the best.
 What he say might b right.

Maybe the bath salts addled publicity hunter has signed up for Onecoin.

That's just pure speculation. He has no evidence to base that claim on.
As things stand we've seen more technologies built on the Bitcoin protocol which have been more revolutionary. Despite that, Bitcoin still remains at the top with far more than a 25% market cap.
As it stands, there's no real reason why this would change but if things do progress then it's fair to say that there's a possibility that BTC's percentage of the total market cap will decrease although tonexactly what nobody can predict with certainty.

John McAffee claims that "In Two Years Bitcoin will only have 25% of the Crypto Market Cap" . How delusional he is?

As we can see, BTC is still 80%+ of the total crypto marketcap. There are absolutely 0 bitcoin competitors as of today. The existing cryptos are just small niches (the 2 or 3 that are worth anyones time, the rest are just jokes)

So he is claiming a "bitcoin killer" that would make everyone getting in soon rich as fuck (kinda like bitcoin 2.0 happening) would appear in the next 2 years.

This is as realistic as any of the existing coins taking away 50-60% of bitcoin's current marketcap (which should be higher in the next years)

How delusional is this?

I wish he was right, and some sort of unique revolutionary thing happened, and we all got at the begining this time instead of getting in 3 years later when it's already 3 figures per coin, but let's be realistic. A thing like bitcoin happens every hundreds of years, so what are the chances that a new technology steals 50-60% of bitcoin's marketcap?

You could claim it will be a couple of coins getting like 10% each... still very delusional, it would need to be new coins, existing coins dont offer enough to justify that change.

I want to get rich as fuck with a new coin that is revolutionary and brings something new, but unfortunately I dont see it happening. We are stuck with bitcoin's slow growth and with the lame pump and dump alts, and the big pump and dumps on alts already happened (no more Monero style 2000% gains anymore)
