Do you know Max Keizer? Check https://www.publish0x.com/coinbuzz/he-predicts-death-altcoins-and-hard-forks-xmmode ¿Do you think quality of altcoins projects that have emerged in recent times has improved?  ???

Altcoins will be just fine.  He trippin!!

This is just silly guys. We all know that it is nothing than poor luck if somebody predicts the market movement correctly. Crypto is very volatile, unpredictable and can be manipulated every day, so just follow the market and do not listed to such "prophets".

I do not think that altcoins will die in this bear market. Do you remember when you came for the first time to this market? You bought Bitcoin and after that you buy altcoins. Now people buying Bitcoin and soon they will see a huge opportunity in altcoins.

I remembered this guy shit-talking about Bitcoin and other a few years ago but look at his own coin. If you have been here for years, you should know something called startcoin. Look how bad his coin is. From a thousand of satoshis to a few satoshis.
here is: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/startcoin/

Even he already predict some situation before like bitcoin prices he can't predict the death of any coin. Because no one knows when coin will die. So for me I did not afraid even I have some amount of altcoin that I hold because I know that also a good coin like bitcoin and not easily to die. You don't have to follow prediction because you will only give a limitation to your self in investing.

There are quite a few  quality altcoins.
I think altcoins weakest points were too much reliance on exchanges for price growth. Whoever wants to kill altcoins could easily kill them via centralized exchanges.
Altcoins developers need to start building things people actually need/use and not relying too much on speculators.

maybe this is what he wishes, but not what is going to happen.

he makes money from predictions and sensationalists headlines. it's called P-R-O-P-A-G-A-N-D-A.

some past predictions

go follow him and sell your alts for cheap to the whales!!!  :P :D

I will take it with a pinch of salt, many people predict lots of alts will be gone by now back in 2018 when the great long lasting blood bath shook the market, but somehow they are still around and kicking, if predictions where to be accurate, i know many could already tell where market would be, it is just a guess work.

That is true and I think he is the same as John Mcafee who always makes sensations in every statement about market predictions or an alt  :D ;D

For the truth, we don't know, but maybe some altcoin can do that by emerging with the other project and maybe that is the only one thing they can do to improve the coin to a better way. But for the strong coin, they don't need to do that because they already become a strong coin and what they need is to continue the project so people can choose them as the next potential altcoin to invest. We will see many altcoins which cannot survive in the market and there is much reason why the altcoin cannot rise again.

There many self proclaimed crypto experts and analysts. It would be good to hear them all if they provide their assumptions with facts and reference. Hear of all and decide on your own. But if they are just making prophecies than there's zero credibility for them.

He just want you to buy Bitcoin at the highest price so he can sell you his stock Altcoins won't disappear, except if all the crypto market is dead and has no future for new projects.

I think about altcoins although not everyone can predict about it, accept something from others is not bad to do actually. It is like something that give us information either it is right or wrong, we just don't follow it directly, maybe good to be an addition for our research and can help us to predict something too in altcoin world.

the quality of new crypto projects keep decreasing from time to time that is why most of the project didn't even reach their soft cap at many occasions so we cannot say the development of the new projects increased or emerged.There may be few cryptocurrency project have real working future but it buried under lot of shit coins.

lol no.
if anything the quality of altcoins has declined hard over the past 2-3 years. specially ever since the ICOs became a thing in this market, everyone kept creating shitcoins and published them reducing the quality of new projects more and more.
that dude you are quoting is exaggerating though. unfortunately altcoins aren't going to die that easily. they will continue to get pumped and dumped for a couple of more years.

It's no rocket science. If bitcoin continues its dominance at a larger percentage, many altcoins whose funds have been diverted to bitcoin will die because developers will lack money for development and sustainability and thus decimating the altcoins

Projects have recently been improved in quality, and the value of projects is also judged more correctly. Poor quality projects no longer x several times

To an extent, he is right, not all altcoins will make it to the future, there are so many altcoins that will die and even if we have new ones rising, they may not get the attention that will sustain them in the market because lately, it feels like people have been a little bit more interested in bitcoin more, which is why bitcoin is gaining more dominance, and the more bitcoin gains popularity, the more it limits the chances of some coins thriving in the market.

Basically, I think most of the altcoins that would see the light of the day are the ones within the top 50 in coinmarketcap aside the stable coins, because those stable coins will also varnish once bitcoin gets to a stage where it will be useful also to serve as store value, the value will tend to be a little bit stable and could serve like a stable coin.

I think because of the IEO model for investment. The quality of projects has also grown. Since there are too many competitors. And for this reason, projects often release MVP before conducting IEO.

Max used to be an altcoin guy. He even launched his own altcoin Maxcoin. Words like that coming from someone who made money on altcoins don't mean much.
If max is as right about the death of altcoins as he was with his 2018 bitcoin price predictions then we are all safe :D

Do people really think that when bitcoin dominance increases all of the altcoins will die? that's just so wrong, even if the market cap of many altcoins has sunk into the depth of the bottom they are still alive anyway. I don't see any single sign that indicates the dead of altcoins but instead there's a new trend called IEO which brings many people. Also considering that bitcoin is about opensource thing and freedom, it is to be expected that there will always be altcoins that people privately created.

I think that there are good projects that appear in the last half of the year, but there are not as many as we want. I think that the altcoin market is alive and even more interesting projects will appear than we can see now

he was the guy that predicted 15k for this week, or i'am wrong?  ???
If altcoins really gonna die, hard forks also die. this is not that magic prediction he makes.  ::)  But i think his prediction isn't so wrong as most of you guys think. i also think that most of the altcoins gonna die.

And Anthony Pompliano believes in altcoins, Bitcoin constitutes 50% of its entire crypto portfolio value.
Do you think that Pomp is not skilled enough to judge if altcoins have a sense?

Are we going to answer your  question or just have a comment about that guy and the link you provided?  ;D

Recent altcoin creation are just the same as the altcoin that was created a year ago.
They just copy it and somehow give another good feature or a website that looks cooler than the old one.
I dont think there is really one now being created for the best of the public.
It is all just greedy move for money. That is why I stopped supporting them now.

Bitcoin will gobble up other Store-of-Value coins. Some coins like zcash, monero, grin may survive. They have features that Bitcoin community decides not to implement. It's hard to compete with Bitcoin on SoV narrative. Some semi-decentralized coins will survive to serve corporate interests.

It's time to stop fiddling with limited supply/SoV. This is why I create Bitflate, a coin with constant inflation rate.

not all, but some high-quality altcoin projects appear,
like grin, atom, minter, they are very good projects, I'm not advocating, but just giving examples,
and if I see, many quality projects do not make bounties, I don't know why, although not all, but many of quality projects like that,
and many, quality projects are not exactly from hardfork or something, they make their own consensus and try to make a new breakthrough in the world of blockchain.

Bounties, airdrops attract the wrong crowd. I develop an altcoin. You can only get it via mining. It's the type of skin in the game I want to have for my coin. It is a good filter for future projects: mining only.

All the ICO scam tokens will bleed and fade away. Quality of new projects isn't improving much either. There's a LOT of money to be made from making shitcoins sadly, so we'll always see these coins pop up from time to time.

Personally I'm sticking to promising projects with active developments.

I'm holding:

BTC
LTC
ADA
LINK

But my biggest sleeper is definitely XSN. It's gonna outperform most altcoins, since the team behind Stakenet is building and innovating upon the Lightning Network, bringing off-chain transactions with speed of light and low fees to the public. HUGE potential, and believe it or not, they actually helped both LTC, and PIVX integrating and fixing their code.

Do your own research though, and stay away from ERC20 tokens which are hyped up on nothing but vaporware, with nothing going for them.

I have heard a lot about coming death of forks, but I also think that the future is so gloomy as some guys think. Altcoins are really alternative cryptocurrencies, which are sometimes, more convenient than expensive Bitcoin. However, I agree that BTC dominance can eat many tokens. Try to concentrate only on reliable altcoins like Ethereum and Monero.
