Every altcoins regardless of "pump and dump" situation , they do have some reasons .

Example a lot of altcoins at the time of 2013-2014 lose their value highly or altcoins like TRX/XVG pumped strongly and felt .

Do you think it'll happen like dotcom bubble ? Just 5-10% of altcoins will be survived after all ?

one of the main reasons to help altcoins grow is their adoption in real life. for example, wide use for payments in many places all over the world.

Elements of fire,ice,land,air could be a good factor,just kidding  ;D  of course it can really happen to the cryptocurrencies these altcoins doesnt have a clear picture when the bitcoin's price up to $50k or more most of the altcoins wont survive because they wont have a value if bitcoin's price reached that level because 1 satoshi could cause $3 or more and these low marketcap coins will be less than one satoshi value.

So many altcoins become competitor in their field . Most of projects now is in progress , i think it takes a couple year to see their growth

Don't know how much % of companies got ruined in dot com I was only a child then but you are correct in your thought that a lot of projects won't make it much longer from here. As this report shows, only roughly 8% of github projects are still ongoing which highlights how many projects die quickly. https://news.bitcoin.com/86034-github-blockchain-projects-8-percent-survive-top-accounting-firm-analysts-say/

Investors, Community, Team, Concept. Every factor stated does affect a coins price as all these factors decide its fate whether it'll stand strong in the market or just be another unknown project. If there are a lot of investors but the community or team is bad, it'll soon demolish same goes for all other factors, you cannot have only one thing great you should have everything at least good the start and wait as great things take time.

In the end only a small percentage of coins will survive. Not all the projects are going to succeed. Also there is going to be a high rate of failure due to the way ICOs are being created and the crazy valuations they are being given.

The progression and development in the project behind a particular coin is one of the factors that affects the price greatly I think.

What I noticed that affects price the most in the coins I've seen so far.

Short run:
- a marketing team that talks about the coin, although in some cases people start believing or are invested enough in what is sold that it becomes a long run price raise.
- famous people or organisations that are (or are rumoured to be connected to the coin, e.g. the basketball player that did a trip for potcoin or recently a famous poker player that got into the casinocoin board)
- anticipation for the certain release of a feature (more often than not, price rises high in anticipation before that, then it just drops like a brick, no matter if the feature is good)

Long run:
- following the roadmap, delivering on time often affects the price in the long run.
- technical innovation (if it is actually marketed) on a feature that is hot atm. E.g. the privacy craze a few months back, but only the coins that were marketed (e.g. deep onion had quite some bounties for mentioning the coin on the forums or putting it in your signature).
- and finally, real-life usage is the only thing that seems to keep the price stable or make it rise in the long run.

I think the most important thing for a coin is to live and preferably thrive (Is it not the goal of the developers community and all involved, most importantly developers still  62 percent of last years ico s died ) . So what will mostly affect coins price is the demand for the utility of the coin also if the company is succesfull can offer buy back and burn schemes among many ways to increase the value of their coin rewarding investors for trust and risk that was involved. Definitely projects like Kepler tick all of those boxes, choose wisely and gl&hf (good luck and have fun)

Best thing is for a coin to have a purpose and be better than others of it's type, unlike most forks.

People faith

That’s the basic fundamental of the market. When bitcoin rises, every alt in the crypto market falls and crashes hard if the rise is steep and rapid. Altcoins only have scope to grow if the price of the bitcoin remains stable.

When bitcoin will rise, most of the alts will fall surely, and there will be very few altcoins with good project and technology that will survive the market crash and emerge later once bitcoin has stabilized at certain range. Almost 80% altcoins are expected to fall and experience the minimum price levels when bitcoin surges high and goes for a bullish trend.

I think a working product, an idea useful to society and constant development will favorably affect the project.

the degree of progress of the project , its degree of application in the real world , which will affect the price of coins . of course , the overall market trend will also affect the price of a coin. the most important thing is that it is useful in the real world . people can't live without it . if it's just a coin for market speculation , it won't live for a long time .

There are various elements that affect the value of a coin namely :
1.   Utility of the coin.
2.   Application in real world.
3.   Total supply.
4.   Trade volume.
5.   Team behind it.
6.   Events like forks or coin burn etc.
7.   Technology.
8.   Scalability
9.   Transaction speed and fee.
10.   Liquidity

These are some of the factors that can affect the price of a coin.

In my opinion, It needs a proof of the products that is running with a profitable revenue  and useful to the people which I think this is the reason why many ICO will not survived. People will support when a project is useful and has potential to grow. Nobody will invest if your gonna lose in the long run.

That’s the main factor. In the end, only those coins will survive in the market who have real world applications and are of some utility.

Coins and projects such as NEO, XRP, ONT and GNT that solve some real world problems with their technology and are trying to connect the outside world information and problems with blockchain technology will be able to survive in the long run and will prove themselves useful not only in transactions, but also other applications.

The reasons are many and their volume and liquidity in the market and development of their technologies. This is only a small part of the reasons that increases demand, and this is not the last factor either.

Too much on the cost of impacting big players who hold on 1k + bitcoins on their hands. By releasing a certain amount of coins to the market they can lower the cost.            

It seems to me very strongly influenced by the information background in the press. It can move the main masses of people and tell them to buy or sell.

there are many reasons for the growth except Bitcoin's price. Of course main of them are their adoption in real life, good news about project, famous persons in team of project.

Traders, they take so much part in the price. They are working each and everyday to trade coins and each transaction somehow affect the involved coins. The reality is, if how that coins are widely used, are they serving its purpose? Are they being widely used by investors? In short, it is the community, us, that affects the price of everything in the market.

Volatility is too closely related to demand. When there was a huge demand in december of last year, then the cost of coins grew every hour.

Generally - the news.

FUD, FOMO, etc. They heavily influence the bear/bull trends we see.
