There are lots of reasons for the price rise of bitcoin.
Some of the reasons I can tell you.
First thing you know that crypto currency has started with bitcoin.

And as you know, the price of the crypto currency depends on the demand and the supply.

And the supply of bitcoin is low and the demand is high and there is One more important reason is acceptance of the bidcoin.

As far as the ALT coins are coming from their trading bitcoin, due to which the rate of bitcoin will remain high.

Hello,

Im new in crypto and have a question (a stupid one).. I never really gave it much though and now i wonder.

Is price of bitcoin so high (compared to altcoins) because it is so much superior or is it just because it is THE coin - the original one.

Cheers Smiley


so many people hold the bitcoin so that the bitcoin value continues to rise due to limited supply. bitcoin is the first of all crypto that exists. and that's the big difference from altcoin.

because bitcoin is a real thing, you can give bitcoin or some portion of it and receive anything physical in return, from paying your check in a restaurant to buying real estate you can do with bitcoin.
but the same thing is not true for altcoins. they are always going to be virtual tokens which only get speculative demand.

because of this, the demand for bitcoin is mostly real and small part speculative. and that demand is rising.
also the supply of bitcoin (unlike most of the altcoins) is small and it also is limited (unlike many altcoins). less supply and rising demand means a huge price and a rising one.

there is currently around 16 million bitcoin available. go and compare this number with the number of coins available for other altcoins. you can use a website like coinmarketcap.com

Precisely said. Bitcoin has a price that is so high now, in your mind. It is almost twice as high in Zimbabwe, it is also very high in India and why? Simple expression of demand. When Bitcoin is scarce in these countries, of course people are willing to pay more for it.

And why Bitcoin? We all hear how Bitcoin Cash and other alts are cheaper faster and what not. Simple also. Bitcoin is the currency accepted everywhere for a growing number of things. You can buy real estate, pay bills, buy things, even pay taxes in Switzerland. What can you do with Bitcoin Cash and most alts right now?

The price of bitcoin at this point is the highest. As you know it was the first one. It is the original and as it got  so big because of its popularity people started new coins and hoped that these coins would grow like bitcoin too. Bitcoin gained a huge popularity and more and more people started investing in it. Also the quantity of bitcoins is not unlimited which makes it even more valuable.

The price of bitcoin so high because of its demand and less production. So many people invest in Bitcoin. So many people trust Bitcoin blindly.

Because it's classic bubble  Grin
Do you have any reason to assert this. You were hired bankers to spread this information? Everyone who talks about bitcoin never makes a compelling proof of his words. I think that bitcoin is the Foundation for building a separate economy that is not subordinated to the government. It certainly could provoke a war of governments and banks against users of bitcoin but if we persist we will win.

Because it is the first, will be the one and only bitcoin despite all its inferiority compared to others
Other factor of course the increase in demand, after seeing its track record, who's not tempted to get it? Grin

It's because it's the original coin, altcoins are like the name says alternative coins, based on Bitcoin's technology.
That's also why most investors rely on it, because it's the oldest.

The simple and only true answer is because people have no idea where they put their money, they just think that is always going up up and they make money. ..

The price of bitcoin is reflected through the belief of investors. Most large companies and large economies such as Japan, Korea, China trade bitcoin a lot. Bitcoin is licensed by the Japanese government for the exchange of goods and is legally recognized

This is because bitcoin is the originator and the first coin.
However, more reason is targeted at investors around the world, bitcoin audiences more extensive, more well-known, but also almost all ALTCOIN's trading base unit.
There is another reason, the author of bitcoin is still a mystery, Nakamoto no one now who do not know, this is the center.

It's not that complicated, all around the world, people are buying itcoin because they think it's a great opportunity for an efficient investment.

They keep demanding it, hence the price of bitcoin is booming as a result.

All of these forks are making Bitcoin stronger and made more money flow into Bitcoin (eg.: Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold, Bitcoin Silver) as well as the Bitcoin Futures that might be launched early December.

It is normal that bitcoin always remain in high portion in the crypto world. Some time bitcoin rise very high quickly because of hard fork news.Many time pump and dump is depend on a news that will be true or false it is not matter. but the news will make a change surely.And now a days alt are dumping and dumping so people are selling altcoins and buying more bitcoin.

Demand in the market still high for bitcoin. Many people invest and hold in bitcoin. Because they believe the price every years will be up.
Now in some country use bitcoin for daily transactions, accept bitcoin as a payment.
