Altcoin is alternativecoin which means coin-coin other than bitcoin. The purpose of making this altcoin is to cover the weakness of bitcoin is the limitations of the amount of bitcoin in circulation that is only about 22 million coins only, then altcoin was made. Until now there are about 150 altcoin on the market with varying prices, there are even altcoin prices that exceed the bitcoin price itself either 2x fold, 3x fold, even 10x fold. But a lot of altcoins are very small.

Altcoins refer to all the cryptocurrencies and coins other than the main bitcoin. After bitcoin, many cryptocurrencies and coins came into the market which got the name altcoins. Altcoins have become popular due to high return they gave to investors in past. Some altcoins such as Litecoin has given good returns since launch. Altcoins are risky as compared to bitcoin.

For now, we're not yet certain which altcoin will survive through time, since it we notice, everyday, new coins are made but only few remains. But, we should not be discouraged in investing to altcoins, just like Bitcoin, it also started from below and rise from among others. So, only time will know. Let's have as much as we can.

Altcoin is an alternative coin that is too dependent with Bitcoin. A cryptocurrency that is different from Bitcoin either in terms of platform or purpose. Altcoin is a cheaper alternative to Bitcoin. I chose those words because it is what I think Altcoin is.

Altcoins offer healthy competition in the cryptocurrency market, and thus provoke Bitcoin developers to remain active and continue to develop innovations. If part of the cryptocommunity finds that Bitcoin is obsolete and no longer satisfies their needs, they can take altcoin.

Altcoin is an alternative coins to bitcoin. Bitcoin been the first and the leading coin other coin that come after bitcoin is regarded as an altcoin

Altcoin is used to have bitcoin buy trading it or through exchange. Without altcoin, it will be hard for the new ones to earn without investment because few participants are being accepted when joining signature campaign. Without bitcoin, there is no altcoin because bitcoin is the foundation of all cryptocurrencies.

Altcoin is a dummy. Dummy is an imitation of the original. Altcoin is built on a framework that imitate the success of bitcoin. These altcoins are launched to offer modifications in areas like privacy, proof of stake and many more to address the shortcomings and limitation of bitcoin. However, these are just a way to call bitcoin in another name but in the end it will be converted back to bitcoin. Bitcoin is a digital currency acceptable to a wider network that offers a wider acceptance in the coin market.
