Exactly, bitcoin is only the first cryptocurrency to exit, but it will not be the main one for a long time, and more because of the current characteristics that define it, and I practically cease to be the reference for the new altcoin, and deeponion if it can be worth even more than bitcoin, but that requires time and adaptation.
This is a small example that adapts for Crypto, Why bitcoin is famous and has a high value? because it's simply the first one, so it dominated the market alone for years, Now DeepOnion and others projects might just be like Sony and Samsung.
I don't think we can't compare Bitcoin and DeepOnion anyway. It's like comparing two different things with two different purproses. Bitcoin is the main trading pair in crypto, it has a transparent blockchain, it cannot evolve much because too many different actors are involved and too much money is at stake...DeepOnion is new, it aims for full privacy, it can evolve and become much more than privacy coins we already know.
The single greatest use of cryptocurrencies is to be a transfer of value. It doesn't matter how much better a coin is to Bitcoin, and lets me frank most coins are, as long as Bitcoin puts out updates to improve its ability to complete more transactions efficiently (i.e. lightning network) then it will remain on top. Bitcoin today is ALOT stronger than the Bitcoin of 6-months ago because of the lightning network. IMO, Ethereum is a safe bet at spot number 2 as well. That said, spots 3-10 are open season to DeepOnion and I don't know of any other coin that are currently ranked 51 down, other than Aion and Oyster, that I can say that about. Considering where Onion is right now, that should says ALOT about how bullish I am on Onion.
Well said, people will anyhow value bitcoin to most "expensive" or highest market value coin probably forever just because it was the first ever cryptocurrency.
That doesn't mean that people will not use another crypto in their daily life, like a privacy coin.
Bitcoin will end up as a store of value anyhow due to its increasing price, it will not be suitable to pay 0.0000000001 BTC at the bakery
Blockchains may have layers, so what if devs manage to deploy portable devices wallet to pay groceries in an user friendly way and DNS system like? Strange numbers in crypto will disappear when mass adoption will be achieved IMO, they're still here because devs are focused on more pressing problems.
