so why do altcoins are created? if you look in the internet you will read that altcoins are created after the success of bitcoin. they emerge to improve the flaws of bitcoin as well as to compete with it.

The only thing I could think of what altcoins have that bitcoin doesn’t have now would be its fast transaction and less confirmation, which is what the people are looking for as of the moment.

Well, this is a rather difficult comparison, even because Bitcoin is one and now there are more than 1600 of alts.. I think that there are altcoins that are really stronger in a number of technical characteristics, but their capitalization can not be compared with the capitalization of Bitcoin ..

Yes, you are partially right. There are many sides through which it might appear that altcoins provides for benefits than Bitcoin. But in the long run, Bitcoin is safer and provides you with more benefits.

The more risk, the increadible volatility and jumps. It can fall to zero on one day and go x10 in one night, lol! The bigger opportunities with ICOs

Not all people can afford to invest in bitcoin now, so they invest in more promising altcoins!

By and large, I think that most of the altcoins will die sooner or later, because they are all very similar to each other, so to say that these projects are unique is not necessary, I think that bitcoin is one.

A lot of thigns that bitcoin can not do at the moment, there are a lot of altcoins that you can use for different purposes, and you can only use bitcoin as a meant of payment, and a store of value.

They have their own unique features but you can't just tell the people that stop using bitcoin.

I've using bitcoin for payments and it's like a norm to me and I'm used to this type of coin so if you are looking for something that altcoin does have and bitcoin doesn't have. You get to know more about the market and maybe you can understand what you really like.

Altcoins provide a specific purpose for their coin like, some are used as crypto banks, some for particular payment for specific areas like travels, hotel, and accommodation. I think Altcoins are better than Bitcoin based on its individual characteristics, better features, and advanced technologies.

Take as reference, you can not create smart contracts with bitcoin, but you can do it so with ethereum in a few minutes.

maybe altcoin is good as an alternative to long-term infestation ,, if you think alcoin price is much cheaper than the bitcoin price right now, some people think buy altcoin whose price is still relatively cheap and good, then hold it to good price and sell it, it also which I do ,, but I do not know everybody's thinking is different

I think it is difficult to have altcoin to beat the bitcoin
You know, Bitcoin is worth it, and its momentum is constantly growing

Kind of a weird question since different Altcoins can do completely different things. Asking what 'Altcoins' offer in comparison with Bitcoin is therefore way to broad of a question!

 Perhaps yes there's a chance that some alts can outpass bitcoin. Unless if some of big holder on bitcoin jump to another alt to collaborate the progress of the project. But on this circumstances which is as long bitcoin is still expensive i think no other alt can over take bitcoin price and it will remain on the top as long there's still a massive demand and supply in the market.

Different altcoins offer unique feature and serve different industry or ecosystem need.Ethereum for example is for Smart contracts and a platform for launching other cryptos.That obviously is not possible with bitcoin.

Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency and it established and is dominated by a large number of people and will remain the best crypto and altcoin are created to cover the disadvantages of bitcoin because in terms of transaction speed and fee, altcoins are better, they have specific functions according to their importance, they offer more volatility than bitcoin, they give more profit on long term investment than bitcoin because they are cheaper. I think it is only when all altcoin combine as one that they will surpass bitcoin.

Bitcoin is always the leader. This is indisputable. But bitcoin is theoretically the most primitive. There are a lot of projects that do what he can not do. There are ico's who do great things. These are really important things.


lol at people drinking the cool aid here

there are serious trade off's for any project that improves on certain areas of btc.........there are zero alts with clear advantages without clear disadvantages

btc is not primitive it is merely calculated in its simplicity for maximum impact in the most important areas

I think the right altcoins can offer more in terms of profitability than bitcoin would in the long term. an outcoin with a value $0.1 that becomes $1 is a 10 folds increase, I dont think we are going to see 10 folds increase in bitcoin anytime soon.

Bitcoin is the king, that's why he is first.
But like kings, bitcoin will finish to die and let his throne to an other.
