Bitcoin Forum

I'm consistently putting small amounts into ETH and LTC as a kind of emergency fund that likes to grow.  When, exactly, do you guys think that the recent surge in BTC will result in a "catch up" surge in ETH and LTC?

what I'm thinking. if ETH and LTC are equal to the price of Bitcoin. that's a possibility, but it requires time and process. and of course it requires investors who are on par with Bitcoin as possible. to be able to match

I do, but it looks like you are a new adopters of crypto right? have you seen the old chart and that should be 2017 chart and the price of anyother coins will grow after bitcoin has down with its pump. Price of ethereum and litecoin will follow the surge that happens on the bitcoin price after it has stopped.
This pattern was repeating so many times and it's so easy to know where will be the direction of crypto.

If you mean catch up by marketcap or price on the coin for each coin
Well it might be quite sometime

Bitcoin itself has almost 50% of the dominance of the marketcap
Another 50% comprise of all other thousands alts

But i believe once the bitcoin hype slow down, the next ride would be for the Alts!

For that btc has to go more sideways on the chart so the value that was took out to ride the btc wave will flush back, people like to take there bet on btc when spiking like this.

BTC often leads a price recovery, and alts follow... so I would normally say wait until BTC starts to slow down a bit, then that is likely when alts will start to grow.
However what complicates this at the moment is there is the expectation that BTC will encounter huge resistance around $6400, which could mean that alts won't rise when BTC stops, as the whole market could be struggling to rise at that point.

Yes, I'm expecting both of them to catch up with BTC, but it may take some time before they do so. I still think LTC should catch up sooner than ETH, but don't hold me to my word for that. There is an additional factor to consider. Soon, the litecoin block reward is due to be reduced by half. This may result in people buying LTC expecting a price increase due to the reduced supply side, which may add to the overall effect.  

Edit: It seems some people interpret "catch up", which is meant in terms of pumping up the price, as "catch up" in terms of absolute price. Of course, LTC and ETH will never catch up in terms of absolute price (value) to BTC. Just to be clear.

Just checked the price of ethereum and litecoin, actually these 2 coins also increasing too. Not that big like bitcoin but still a good increase.

In my opinion ethereum and litecoin will increase/catch up too, just wait and you will see the price increase, we are in bull market now.

Don't you worry, ETH and LTC are good altcoins IMO and they will follow later. The spotlight and dominance for the meanwhile is for bitcoin so expect that it will soar high but just like the old days, when bitcoin goes up, alts will just go with the flow later.

But I have no idea when ETH and LTC will catch up bitcoin's pump.

all certainly have the same desire to repeat back to the time of 2017. At that time the price of bitcoin reached 20k at the time of the highest price.in my prediction, if this month Bitcoin reaches a price of 7000 $, it might repeat its heyday
Possibly in the future it will exceed 2017 prices later, like others ETH, LTC also

If you mean catch up the price of bitcoin or to reach over, well nope it will not happen, but ETH and LTC can pump the price at least.

The current bull run is really interesting so many peoples are waiting for the good hype. But they looking for ETH and LTC reaching the BTC, It is impossible to reach anyway so better they analyse properly in future investment. LTC was follow the BTC way but ETH will never follow the both way is the reality.

NEVER!

altcoins will never catch up to bitcoin, specially altcoins that already exist and have many flaws. for example ETH has unlimited supply which is slowly starting to show its face to all the investor bag holders as ETH struggles to keep its current price above $100 and not crash hard. and LTC is a copy coin which only follows bitcoin but only so much so that its pumpability allows since people don't really "invest" in any of the altcoins but rather trader them in short term during their pumps which don't exist as long as bitcoin price is rising.

There is no good growth with ethereum and other top altcoins which showed good growth with the bull run that took place in 2017. Though the price has grown above $6300 users were much focused on the growth with ethereum and other cryptocurrencies. Most of the large whales and rich people keep hold of large number of bitcoins while majority of the common users have majority holdings in the form of altcoins. Hoping for a big growth on altcoins along with bitcoin.

I don't really understand how you think. If you are a newbie. I think that you also understand Bitcoin has the greatest influence on the Altcoins in the crypto. So ETH and LTC can't catch up BTC.

I agree what you think about this. But to pursue the price of bitcoin for now it is still impossible for now. Even in the future. it's just that there is a price fix that can certainly be ETH and LTC. even all altcoins are of course

since litecoin is silver to bitcoin, i will wait until litecoin is price at 4x less than bitcoin
feel impossible to me https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/litecoin

Really I was trying to read through some post to understand what Op meant before getting a clue from your post.

I also wonder when ETH and Ltc will catch up with the king  ;D

Price trikkles down from btc to altcoin , this is how we met it , don't know how soon it will change but we are adapting to it.

soon, when a corrections coming to bitcoin in this rising price,
then when bitcoin price rising again after the corrections, Ethereum and litecoin will grow together with bitcoin my friend
just be patient and you will get an enough profit from ethereum and litecoin
regards

Of course, it has a chance since altcoins are depending on Bitcoin. Of what it happen to Bitcoin will surely altcoins will follow but it takes some time to see the effect into the market. ETH and LTC have a good market shape already and the pumps happen today will make its price to grow by then, let's wait for a few more days and see what it change.

Well we cant tell yet on when ETH and LTC catch up to BTC, But as of now its only BTC are smoothly increasing the price. We hope some coins also will be join of BTC increasing the price because that we waiting for to increasing all of coins the prices.

You know how is goes with fiat when the dollar is used to value other currencies and they don't catch up ::),that's exactly where bitcoin stands...it's the controller or highest determining crypto which makes all currencies impossible to match up to it...and it's good as the constant variables.

i'm pretty sure about ethereum we will see a nice and huge rally in this coin by the end of 2019 but in lite coin case i truly don't know i think it's already overvalued right now good luck for all :)

maybe soon enough and as soon as possible, I see on both of these coins the development is very good. but if the price of ethereum and litecoin is told above the price of the bitcoin will not be able to because the price and quality ratio is very far.

Now only Bitcoin has increased and other pennies are having very bad prices in the last few days. If Bitcoin continues to rise, then altcoin will probably have a very low value this year. I hope that Bitcoin in the next few days has a slight and stable adjustment at $6200 because if Bitcoin doesn't have a lot of volatility, then surely all leading pennies will be able to raise prices higher. Now is not a good time to invest and we should wait patiently for the Bitcoin price to return to $6200

Among the altcoins that I have personal analyzed , I think litecoin is the most undervalued coins and because of the development and how good it is,  I think it is going to grow in future.  I have been following events on litecoin and even when it was pumped above $300 some of us take the advantage of buying at the low price and takes profits then.  I think ethereum and litecoin are good to invest now as the future is very bright and we would do ourself good by buying as other investors especially the whales will be flipping in future.

I totally doubt the possibility of this, and why do we need the price of LTC and ETH to be at equal with BTC before we can benefit from them. These 3 coins are all doing very fine and if anyone is to invest, it should be now, whatever increase they get to during the surge will be enough for us to get a very big profit, but Itwon’t be possible for them to be as high as BTC even if BTC stops growing.

There is no coin in the market that bitcoinwill not always outperform, so rather than thinking of the time they will surge high as BTC, just put any amount you want now, you will get a very good price on the surge.

Yes, Bitcoin is the king of all the coins currently circulating in the exchange market, so it is quite difficult for Altcoin like ETH and Litecoin to pursue the price of Bitcoin, but what I like about the Crypto world is that nothing is impossible.

Everything in this market is getting better and lots of good information related to this market. I think anything can happen in this market as long as you have confidence in the coin you have chosen. I believe that the price increase of LTC and ETH will only be a matter of time because in the last few days the market is showing signs of a very good recovery and we can trust that this bull market will happen again before things start to the moon

ETH and LTC are clearly impressive altcoins ever since they existed. They had a good team around them. But if we are going to talk about ETH and LTC catching up to bitcoin, I think it will take a lot of time. If Ethereum and LTC are going to the moon, Bitcoin will probably go to other galaxies. BTC needs to choke hard to get down to the level of the two.

Yes, but usually bitcoin has to wait for correction after bitcoin rises, only after that altcoin starts to soar after bitcoin.


That's right bro, like when this happened. Yesterday bitcoin went up but altcoins tend to run where there is no movement, but when bitcoin corrects, that's when altcoin starts chasing bitcoin like today.

Happy trading for today, today is so beautiful when you see the green market haha

if in my opinion eth and LTC to pursue the price of bitcoin requires a long time because with the number of supplies between bitcoin and eth, ltc is very different, so we must be patient to wait between the next three years

I don't think Litecoin will ever catch up with Bitcoin. Litecoin is just more recognized version of other coins alternative to Bitcoin like Bitcoin Cash etc. But, in the future Ethereum will probably have a market cap closer to that of BTC.

maybe someday it can happen, but too far to chase the btc price, it takes a long time and of course requires a large investor on both coins. I think that LTC and ETH are still many investors who are interested in these coins without having to be equal to BTC

Ethereum certainly has the opportunity to catch up with bitcoin, of course not in a short time, it takes at least 3 years from now, this is because ethereum is a coin that is supported by many devs. so that it can make ethereum use continue to increase.

Never use the word EXACTLY in this forum specially when you are asking about speculation because never or none of this will be answered
No accurate answer in this profiteering so what we need to do is wait and hope that there will be favorable things to happen

In the history of cryptocurrency, I dot thin there is any coin that has ever dominated BTC, I know they are all new and still developing, but as they are developing, so is bitcoin too developing rapidly. I have even noticed that several time, anytime BTC rises, most of these altcoins at the top also rises along with Bitcoin, which means a part of them still depend on the increase in BTC.

If that is them the case, there is no way they can meet up, because the percentage increase of BTC will always be higher, it is only during altcoins season that they all have the tendency to really grow very high, while bitcoin remains redundant, but they can still not catch up.

Ethereum can beat bitcoin as I think and they can compete to the bitcoin someday even now but for now bitcoin is remain king.
Litecoin is potential and that's my top 3 altcoins for me right now but I don't think it can catch up bitcoin but maybe someday it will achieve that if litecoin have more investors coming. Litecoin, bitcoin and ethereum is good for your money .

Nope, it's way too far to Bitcoin at their current state right now, they can't even make a move without following the trend of Bitcoin. If they are independent of the price of Bitcoin and can make growth even if Bitcoin is in the bearish trend. That, i think they may have the chance to compete Bitcoin but for now, i don't see any progress.

I still think no matter what happen in the future ETH and LTC will never be able to catchup with BTC because BTC is a great asset worthy for long term holding but ETH and LTC are just altcoins so it is hard to get more attentions of other investors, i believe not any altcoins can defeat BTC unless BTC goes down by its own and let younger altcoins take its place.

Looks like bump on ethereum also started now,on some exchanges the price of ETH grown as 10% more in the last 24 hours which is high value when compared to the previous days.For litecoin it is 20% growth seems they are catching up.

maybe today is the day when Eth and ltc growing together with bitcoin
because both altcoins are rising now, and i hope this green price movements will continues to eth and ltc until the end of this year ;)

Price of bitcoin already over $7000 which made the price growth on the other coins as well so you had little more time to invest on ethereum and litecoin so if you didn't buy yet then this is the last opportunity.

When we do talk about catching up then it would still takes time basing on their current value but if we do talk about price increase then not only ETH and LTC would rise up when
Bitcoins price tends to rise up.Just take a look on the current condition of the market which you do see that most alts is being dragged on Btc price recovery.
Don't stress out yourself too much on when they would able to catch up with btc.

It usually follows bitcoin which appears to be pumping now. Eth and litecoin has suddenly jumped as we all knew they would. It's just a case of who has the most patience, weak hands will walk away while the hodlers will eventually benefit from these rises

it will not possible in the next 10 years because the ethereum and litecoin is very low when compared to the Bitcoin because when we see the values for this investment we can see the result easily with our eyes without any research between will be more and more developed.

Of course if the BTC experiences a price increase, the two coins will quickly follow the rise in the price of Bitcoin and you can see it at this time how much the price of coins that you hold right now certainly has got a very good price right? so we have nothing to lose if we believe in coins that clearly have good quality like LTC and ETH.

I think Ethereum still make price movement for now and we can see it increased it's price (when i post this). Maybe with bitcoin pumped, other coin will follow it and a lot of people can be very happy with that.

I suppose they won't catch up to btc. They may rise the same percentage in price bitcoin is rising, but the price difference between bitcoin and these 2 altcoins will give always proportional advantage to bitcoin.
Altcoins like eth and ltc will only catch up bitcoin on the day they push the crypto market up, and not btc, what I guess it's not going to happen.

Looking at current market prices, Ethereum and Litecoin are also experiencing growth. I think this price growth is due to the encouragement of Bitcoin whose prices continue to rise. But this is quite interesting because the conditions are now almost the same as in 2017. Ethereum and Litecoin will definitely continue to grow and I remember when in 2017 these two coins gave many advantages.

I don't think eth and ltc will gonna pump so high same as bitcoin. Considering they can not reach the market cap of bitcoin. They may near to catch up  the price but not fully. But you've chosen a right coins to invest because they are potential projects. And I do trust these coins.

it will likely catch up when btc price will stable for a bit, eth and ltc and all other alts will surely have a price growth, but seeing the btc price is extremely great as we are waited it for a long time

It will be naive to think that it can happen. Litecoin and Ethereum (by the way, why are these altcoins chosen?) will grow, but they cannot catch up with the main cryptocurrency.
Some Litecoin holders believe that this token can reach more than 200 dollars this year, but the alt will be following Bitcoin only. halving can affect its price positively, however.

it is possible but the Bitcoin is in the moon and the ethereum and litecoin is in the earth so reaching the moon is not possible with normal vehicles it needs Rocket to enter into it so if the development is like a rocket then the facility is available for reaching the Bitcoin.

of course it's not easy and it's hard to believe if ethereum and litecoin are chasing bitcoin. yes indeed their popularity is almost the same, but if it is under bitcoin I still believe, we can compare the prices of these three coins themselves are very different. bitcoin will remain the main coin and cryptocurrency leader.

We actually can see that ETH is more aggressive than BTC on the recent price surge. Bitcoin on the other hand continues to increase but much slowly and there are times it rest thn rise again. ETH has its consistency of going up and those who choose to invest in ETH rather than BTC this time chooses right.

What catch up are you implying?
Same price with BTC? ;D

Dont worry it will.
ETH and LTC have been in the crypto space for a long time and I think it will just be a manner of time before people finds out they are two of the best options when bitcoin is surging in tx fee.
I myself still use ETH when I find exchanges giving me a load of tx fee just for a little amount to be transferred.

The price of ETH right now is up by almost 20%, it moves better than bitcoin for the past 24hrs and I think ETH is aiming for $300 mark level again. LTC is also doing great, 14% increase for 24hrs is already a good sign compare to the 3% increase of bitcoin. Consistency is the key for a bull run, and ETH is proving it and invest have to choose the more active coins who pumps a lot so they can secure a profit, I believe ETH is not finish yet so don't sold for now.

It will be not possible in 20, 30 years also. However, I guess that the teams of Litecoin and Ethereum do not have a goal to let their altcoins grow so greatly so that could reach Bitcoin in price and market capitalization.

One of Bitcoin "whales" it is standing on it its fame. Other cryptocurrencies will never get it no matter how good, fast and safe they are.

I agree with this 100%. It is so often the case that once the BTC surge starts to slow down, then money pours into alts, and they increase as well. And also if you look at the charts for the huge bear market, you can see that alts started to drop in early January 2018... but you will also see that BTC peaked and started to drop shortly before that. BTC price movements can often be very useful in predicting how alts will move.

That's because the movement of bitcoin does affect market price movements, including the altcoin price. after prices have risen and returned to stable, etheruem and altcoin usually begin to follow growth slowly. but if there is a decline in bitcoin, with the altcoin market also following the decline.

to be able to catch up bitcoin ,is less likely but what I see now is that the price of ethereum has started to rise from before even though there is a slight decrease, expect ethereum to go up again and be at the highest price

I don't know about ETH really, or for that fact any other crypto, for the next 20 years there will be nothing to challenge the status of Bitcoin as the gold standard of crypto. And Litecoin as much as I like the coin and project, it specifically marketed itself in the past as a silver standard, next to Bitcoin. So in terms of price it will never catch up, but in tech? Litecoin got segwit first remember?

This is a response to Bitcoin's price increase. So that LTC and ETH are able to advance up for pumping. To chase and then outperform Bitcoin, I suppose it will not happen. But the impact of Bitcoin price increase is certainly very remarkable as all the coins are able to pump. This price increase will continue to happen considering that in the year 2017 the price is able to pump very high.

Well, I don't know too much about altcoin but I can see that technology of bitcoin is really outdated when compared to altcoin that appears after bitcoin because many experts have shown it clearly through the charts of the features and effectiveness of these technologies compared to bitcoin. However, although technology has shown too many weaknesse but in terms of value, altcoin remains forever incomparable to bitcoin when bitcoin's lead is absolute and perfect, no one can catch up to bitcoin in this regard when capitalization and market support for it are overwhelming.

Too far to pursue Bitcoin. This is not an easy job for Ethereum and Litecoin to outperform Bitcoin. Bitcoin Price is always moving up, while both coins look very slow. But with the rising price of Ethereum certainly also gives a very positive impact.

A simple way to trade if you don't like putting money in Tether or other stablecoins, and don't have time to follow the intricacies of each coin's development, is just move money back and forth between BTC and alts depending on relative strength. So at the start of a bullrun this means move to BTC, and then when BTC growth starts to slow, then move to alts... and then back to BTC for relative safety if the market starts to turn slightly bearish.

In my opinion the litecoin and Ethereum will never reach the bitcoin value, don't get me wrong but i think bitcoin will always value more than other coins and Litecoin and Ethereum can grow and reach a new ATH.

they will reach their own ATH. to achieve the value of bitcoin indeed I think it will be very difficult for all assets not only etheruem and litecoin. it is even impossible to achieve by other assets, because bitcoin remains the best now.

It is generally belief that history often repeat itself but with a little difference.
The upward increase in the price of btc shall have positive corresponding movement in both ETH and ltc however this effect shall be stronger in ETH compare to ltc.

What I see on this is about the fundamental analysis of particular coins like ethereum and litecoin, just like the ethereum  which the upcoming updates will be the proof of stake and the Litecoin will the wimblemimble protocol which I heared that Litecoin will do something about that.

Yes, that is true. I think it's not good to compare between bitcoin, ethereum, and litecoin and it is very difficult to catch up to bitcoin because bitcoin price is at the very high for ethereum and litecoin. Maybe ethereum and litecoin can increase higher, but the price won't pass the bitcoin price, so it is not an easy job for ethereum and litecoin. Let bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin has its own price so we can take a profit from each coin.

very difficult even almost impossible if you compare ethereum and litecoin can pass bitcoin, ethereum and litcoin are not a bitcoin comparison just look at the total supply of these three coins, I think you're joking when asking when ethereum and bitcoin will cost like bitcoin.

i will say it is not a easy way for LTC or even ETH to catchup with BTC because it is the only crypto that unique and has more trust from investors than any other altcoins,  so that they rather choose to invest in BTC for long term profit than just waiting for ETH or LTC to catchup with BTC because it will take us a very long time.

I don't really think that's going to happen in a long while, bitcoin still remains the most valuable cryptocurrency in the crypto space, not just in the sense of price but what it has to offer to the crypto community. I see lots of merchants that buys large quantity of bitcoin and sell to people who make use of them, we even have those that have used crypto as a store of value for their future in order to make a lot of money once the price of crypto begins to moon.

People always hyping bitcoin price too, in my opinion it's hard for ethereum and litecoin to catch up to bitcoin (in the price). They are good on their own though.

Even without that, ethereum and litecoin still doing good and i think these 2 coins have a big potential.

In my opinion all of this is in order, a few weeks ago the price of bitcoin has risen, maybe the next few weeks the price of ETH and Litecoin will also rise following the movement of bitcoin

Yes, we should be very happy because already both the ETH and Litecoin prices already increased in the market but to catch up Bitcoin it will take time because the supply of these two coins have high compared to Bitcoin, in the coming month we might see some major movements in the market.

your steps put for ethereum and litecoin are very good and we don't need to hurry for them to immediately catch up to bitcoin because ethereum and litecoin are slowly chasing him so be patient

But what do you mean by outdated technology? Old doesn't mean outdated. People usually refer to transaction per second, that Bitcoin only has 7 max or something like that, and others have 100s per second. So that's faster, right? But no, wrong. Ask most merchants and they will say they only need 1 confirmation (or even 0 in many cases) for deposits to appear. But for alts? There is no such thing as 0 confirmation, they will wait for 10 or more if you're lucky.

And tech? Bitcoin got Segwit long before most alts did. Just to give 1 example.

Yeah boi . These alts are indeed catching btc but in a slow steady manner  . Altcoins are always known to be stable and slow moving even before even bitcoin pumps unexpectedly  . This why alts are known to be a coin for those long term investors   . Alts such as eth and ltc are not for impatient people   but there are still alts that are fast moving  , bitcoincash for example   .

@op its now happening actually . Take a look at the value of eth .  The value grow about 100 usd plus .  But i havent check the value of ltc yet .

he doesn't mean anything by it. he is just a parrot repeating the propaganda that was started in 2017 to pump coins like ETH. the funny thing is that people who are repeating the same thing don't even understand how much of ethereum is copied from bitcoin. in fact the differences are minimal and in places that aren't related to the "technology" which is the funny part of their statement. if they said something like DAG coins is the advanced technology compared to bitcoin, it would have made more sense although was still wrong.

Ethereum is the only project that I see continue to rise sometime even when bitcoin is declining, this shows that ethereum really has a very good working products, but despite this, ETH can still not meet with BTC. Even those projects that are built on ethereum smart contract only follows bitcoin in its increase, I have never seen  any of them follow ethereum bull run, mostly they all depend on bitcoin bull including the shitcoins.

It shows that a king will always be a king even if we really don’t know why bitcoin increase affects other altcoins increase, because my believe initially is that they have their own different function and product they present to the world is what should make their value appreciate.

This is a good question and the obvious answer might be to just focus on Bitcoin for now as its gains are leading the market and are likely to improve as the halving approaches but if you want to speculate over which of these alternatives might have more potential they both represent decent potential with Ethereum possibly becoming more sort after throughout the year especially if there's more hype for futures products and its development in on schedule

As of now it's still unclear to whether those projects will be able to catch up with bitcoin or it will remain the same, it's a combinations of development and supports coming from the industry, it will dictates the fate of those projects if they'll be able to work and get bigger attentions to reach what bitcoin already achieved.

Bitcoin will grow, and with it ETH and LTC. It remains only to wait. The whole market seems to be following Bitcoin

It is never and in any way catch up the BTC but to follow the path of BTC. LTC and ETH are evolved much later than the BTC when the BTC price was at the peak. the concept of BTC is adopted in this coin and BTC is always act as the index for the other coin and the altcoins.

LTC may be better at growth in the market compared to ethereum. several times the LTC has started the pump, and ethereum is still waiting for their pump to occur. growth is happening I'm sure only because of the pump from bitcoin.

I am a strong believe in ETH altcoin though i do believe it can never  override the giant Bitcoin but i believe in ETH Capacity. From my own point of view, i believe all these ICO Organizers contributed to the decline in Eth price most especially during the bear market. After raising funds through ETH, they convert the funds into FIAT to avoid volatility that might result into lost of Investors funds. Currently BTC is taking the lead. I believe ETH also will join the suit soon.

I think the price of bitcoin has long been the king of all coins, many other cryptocurrency that follow the price movements of bitcoin, if you want to make the cryptocurrency price go up, usually the first step is to be able to increase the price of bitcoin first. and ethereum or litecoin will never be able to defeat bitcoin.

Both of them are growing as well, but not the same growth as bitcoin because we all know that those are still alt coins and investors or at least majority of them are into bitcoin market So I doubt that it will catch up with bitcoin price wise, but it doesn't mean that they are a sleeper investment as well. Good if you can throw some money on them but majority should be in bitcoin, just saying.

At present their doe snot seems to be any scope of LTC atleast to catch up with BTC. LTC even if it reaches to ETH price level will be the best thing for it as in long run does not look at that attractive price levels to move up.

At present ethereum has been able to increase also when bitcoin rises. in order to be equal in terms of altcoin prices it is certainly not possible to experience a substantial increase even thousands of percent to be equal to bitcoin

As everyone knows Bitcoin is the most strongest crypto currency of all time and it is quite impossible to beat that others suppose to be like. Eth, Bch, and other crypto currency as well could be the next to Bitcoin but not to override it because there are several assets that Bitcoin had.

it caused by halving and i would not be surprised to see that and i expected the same thing will happen when ethereum gets its POS update and that will make the hardcap supply and determine how much ethereum that distributed in the network.
the same thing can happen when it gets the same update.

Eth and Ltc are indeed coins that have very good prospects in the future, but don't assume too much if these two coins will have the same price as Bitcoin. need a better process and development than both. but we must know, if anything can happen in this crypto world.

it would not be possible if ethereum prices could be equivalent to bitcoin. ethereum only has prices below bitcoin but posiisi ethereum is now below one level with bitcoin and it makes ethereum a potential coin after bitcoin.

I think the question should be when is ETH or LTC going to the moon. There's no need to challenge BTC at this point because it's not doable. LTC is doing good right now, and of course there is the halving event that everyone is waiting for. In fact, it is still about 60% from its all-time-high so very doubtful that it can catch up to BTC. Same as ETH as well,  78% from its previous all-time-high. So let those coins works about getting to their all-time-high first and then see how it goes for them in the future.

None of them will catch up because people will always see Bitcoin as the first cryptocurrency. Some say that it will be dethroned and I disagree because it can be upgraded and no coin is recognized as much as bitcoin. Bitcoin has its own brand and it will be more profitable to keep investing in it instead of leaving it and going after another newer coin.

Both ETH and LTC don't have any features that would make them derail the bitcoin train. You'd need something much better to make it happen.

Yes bitcoin was one of the strongest and popular coins in crypto but those two coins mention above etherium and LTC, Maybe they have a chance to catch up of bitcoin as we can see etherium also is have a high volume in the market so they have a chance beat bitcoin in not time.

I think they'll start catching up when bitcoin have it's new ATH.
Slowly we are seeing some increases but it's not big enough as most of us are expecting these altcoins to rise higher than their current ATH.
That's the real definition of success, Bitcoin is just so dominant so we are seeing them rise more compared to altcoins but overall the market is slowly recovering so that chance still stands, and as long as you hold, you'll definitely put yourself in the right time to sell these.

When btc goes up, expect eth and other altcoins to also pump. Most of the time they are late in catching up btc's surge price but expect the surge of eth and ltc too. Like lastweek, eth is kinda late in bull run but it still performs price spike so qe have to be patience to become profitable.

eth may indeed be slow, but eth movements look certain with gradual improvement in eth now starting to rise and restore value. still far from expectations, but if I look at eth prices from the beginning of this year, I think the development has been very difficult.
