Bitcoin was the first ever crypto currency and henceforth the most common digital currency. A big advantage of these kind of currencies is that the code can be enhanced to improve the functionality so there is no need for an other coin to replace bitcoin.

Why bitcoin is the most dominant among all crytocurrencies?
Is it because it is the first crytocurrency?
Is it because of its popularity?
Is it because of its value?
Please enlighten me.
In my opinion, because bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency to ve ever created, and the length of how long bitcoin has been going on in the market, it has accumulated a lot of investors and users through the years. Making it increase in value time after time, increase in popularity as well, and now, a massive increase in its value that made the internet go crazy for bitcoin.

It's simple, it was the first acceptable crypto currency. It reminded me of Facebook. And not only because he was the first, but also because he has a large number of shortcomings (technical).

Well, from all indications, Bitcoin currently as number 1 currency is being traded by virtually all centralized exchanges and has the longest track record of security.
It can be used to buy and sell goods and services in the real world and as such will be so difficult to be placed in second position.

Bitcoin is dominant because of its high value. Government from many country may have hard time in tracing and adding of taxes in every transactions made. Bitcoin is safe with a secured application. Bitcoin is fast in investing, in paying, in trading etc.
A good opinion and I like your opinion.
It is true that bitcoin is very dominant in investing as well as transactions and fast in terms of payment so bitcoin can control many countries to use bitcoin.

BITDEPOSITARY - Make ICO's , More Secure

bitcoin is the most dominant among all cryptocurrencies, this is because bitcoin is the first time ico is made, and as you say, bitcoin popularity is very good in the public eye, many people are interested because the price is very expensive and very suitable for long-term investment

I agree since it is the very first cryptocurrency to be introduced I think it would be normal for bitcoin to dominate the market as it has become the vanguard of cryptocurrency to the world. People have set their expectations to other cryptocurrencies based on bitcoin and its characteristics making it the most ideal cryptocurrency in the market.

Bitcoin dominates the cryptocurrency market because it is made the earliest and is supported by increasingly modern blockchain technology. It comes to the cryptocurrency market that everyone knows bitcoin and bitcoin as a coin representative on the cryptocurrency market.

Why bitcoin is the most dominant?
Simply because it was the first crypto currency that was in a successful path..

Why bitcoin is the most dominant among all crytocurrencies?
Because its the first cryptocurrency to gain social acceptance throughout the world.


Have read through the responses and this one is probably the closest one imho.

The "war" for dominance is and will be a protocol war. Not a design war. Not a functionality war.

Newer ones will surface which are prettier (design) and faster (functionality), they may be added as medium of exchanges. But they will not replace BITCOIN as the main driver in crypto value.
The network (people, developers, miners) has already chosen Bitcoin. This is the one that will remain the bedrock protocol, no matter how crummy and ineffective it may seem in 10 years.

Compare it to TCP/IP or SMTP protocols. They are not the best solutions for information transfer, but they were adopted and chosen as the bedrock. The industry then gives up looking for alternatives and starts producing based on the consensus. All additional layers are added on top.

Other comparisons are:

-VCR vs BETA
-DVD vs Laserdisk
-Cassette vs 8-track

Summary:
The consensus is finished. This was a protocol war, and Bitcoin has already won (as a store of value)
