Please justify your recommendations so that others may taken an educated decision.

are you looking for short term or long term? because in long term there has never been any coin that could outperform bitcoin and there will never be any at least not for another decade.

if it is short term then it is impossible to predict because you want us to predict an unpredictable event called "pump" of an unpredictable choice! my best guess is that this time (like all the previous times) the record will be in the hands of one of the least known coins with a very small market cap and a small price somewhere between 10 satoshi and 0.1 satoshi and the pump will be around 10000%

No. There is no altcoin would ever outperform btc in this situation, I mean, there are so many peoples trade in bitcoin and use bitcoin as their main crypto.

Altcoins doesn't really have the right tech to outperform the btc market. Most of the coins are either a fork of btc or some kind of shit erc-20 coin created out of thin air from a stolen code. Ethereum can be a good competitor for btc in terms of development, but considering the higher supply of the coin and the block reward the total market value surpassing btc would never happen.

Probably that stands with Monero too, they don't have a limited supply and after certain period of time the 0.3 XMR doesn't get reduced to support the miners. Dash seems to be a better alternative in terms of price and total market value while considering them with Monero

ETH will take a leading position again for altcoins after the BTC. Also, I think Binance Coin has a good chance to get a good position. It still has a huge gap between the current price and the possible one. Next one should be IOST and EOS. Both are good at dApp development. Oh, don't forget about the Tomochain, has some good activity recently.

Probably some obscure shitcoins, because they tend to be more volatile, so a sudden jump by 50% is not uncommon. But big names like ETH, XRP and EOS are in a very bad spot now, when Bitcoin rises, they always immediately fall, and usually recover a bit if Bitcoin doesn't drop, but this time the fall looks really bad. People are getting tired of alts, they see that they don't have fundamentals, only hype, so there are no safe bets this time. Better stay with BTC.

For long term, a cheap coins has bigger opportunity to gain more profit than Bitcoin. Let's say Bitcoin price increased 50% in a year, these cheap coins can double or triple the price in a year. I can't mentioned one but I will suggest to pick a coin that has an active community and developments, also better for the team to be active on their personal twitter and talk much about blockchain progress.

If you think that it's possible for long term, stop thinking that there will be an altcoin that will able to outperform bitcoin. Why you just don't take bitcoin and think that it should outperform all of the altcoins in the market?

For altcoins, there's no doubt for Ethereum as it is the 2nd top high rank in the market. As for Binance coin, they have their own network now but still needs more time to beat Ethereum if its aiming to be the king of alts.

I don't think any altcoin can ever outrun BTC because bitcoin is the cryptocurrency that moves the whole crypto market with it so how would an altcoin outrun it. Ethereum has risen quite a bit but was never able to beat bitcoin in terms of its price.

I also don't think an altcoin can value more than bitcoin, but maybe an altcoin can bring more profit in short time than bitcoin, but in long time always bitcoin is the best option and will bring a good profit.

I don't think that in the present situation, any altcoins have got the potential to surpass bitcoin in near future. Although, there have been some very good coins such as Ethereum, Cardano, Litecoin, Monero, and Neo.

Well obviously none, you are talking about bitcoin here the king of the crypto no coin will ever outperform it or even come close to it, at least not for the time, if you are looking for advice on what coin to invest in in this summer than, you should put it in bitcoin, because most of the altcoins are just a long term investment and they take some time for the price to change significantly, and bitcoin is probably going to go big in the next few months.

no altcoin can outperform bitcoin, but if you are asking for profits, i can see Xrp, Eth and Neo to give best profits in bull run. Though some altcoin can give more profits than these but this is the safest coin to bet on as of now. Expect 10x in bull run from current price . DYOR

There isn't any altcoin which can outperform bitcoin, neither short, medium or on long run (maybe just on the very very long run).
You can see the market always follow bitcoin: altcoins always pump if bitcoin is pumping, never the opposite. Altcoins always benefit from bitcoin, they need bitcoin doing well to be fine too. No one of them have potential to take bitcoin position. Although there aren't many absolute truths in crypto space, I take the risk of saying it's one of them.

The first question is, what is the underlying technology behind these altcoins that will make it so valuable to outperform BTC? ETH is trying it's best but yet can't be likened to beat BTC. The truth is, there is no altcoin with the neccessry features or attention to outperform BTC.

How can any altcoin outperform BTC when BTC has been in the market for like 10+ years? And BTM some coin even reaches the level of BTC, BTC would have surpassed it. That's why many small investors have not chosen to invest in BTC and have rather invested in ETH. There are some promising coins like XRP, Tether that have made huge profit for the investors but as the market crashed, their price also crashed. I am currently looking out for FX as it's a new coin and may be able to be good for investment.

I don't think we would have any coin that is going to outperform btc even in years to come because no matter how we try to abadon btc, we discover that it is the father and will always remain the father, besides we have just very few coins in the crypto market that really offers a real life value like what bitcoin offers. For example, bitcoin is a store of value and could be referred as the digital gold, it can be also used as a payment gateway for transactions, this means bitcoin can be used for paying for good and services.

So far, btc seems invincible. Like no crypto can beat them.

Still, if i make a guess, i would choose bnb even after the hack.

Most probably none. Since the beginning of the creations of altcoins up until now there is none that ever outperform Bitcoin in terms of Market capitalization. Yes that is all that matters, more money is put in Bitcoin than any other summed up alts out there. Even though there are better alts at transaction speed, low transaction gas, name it, still Bitcoin is primarily used in the whole world of crypto currencies.

It's better to invest in privacy coins now. These days it's not easier to find a solid project. However, privacy coins will probably have a great future. For your info, I am shilling for Monero, DeepOnion, PIVX. I have invested on these heavily since the bearish season.

Based from my direct analysis and opinion about your point or subject, the word outperform doesn't seems possible or even having a 50 percent higher chance of occurrence. Through looking at the market graph and bitcoin's market price, you can already see how great it is and the gap is quite too big for altcoins to even withstand to reach it.

None of the altcoins have the ability and dexterity to surpass bitcoin now. If care is not taken, the dominance of bitcoin might continue to increase, which means that the growth of altcoins is subject to the growth of bitcoin. That also invariably means that altcoins are dependent on bitcoin.

None.

I don't think that any of the altcoins which are in existence now has the capability to overtake Bitcoin anytime in the near future. Bitcoin is far ahead of the others. If any of these alts have a remote chance of offering some competition to BTC, it has to be Ether. The technology behind ETH is more advanced when compared to that of BTC, but it has failed to overtake BTC in terms of acceptability and adoption.

Bitcoin is firmly taking the place of the cryptocurrency leader. Its level of capitalization is greater than the capitalization of all other cryptocurrencies. This means that Bitcoin firmly holds its position and therefore it is too early to discuss the issue of its displacement. Cryptocurrency is developing very quickly and over time, the loss of a high level of capitalization by Bitcoin is inevitable. What will happen next, while no one can say.

no and there will never be an altcoin that can outperform BTC because BTC is the king of crypto because bitcoin is already too popular and has a very high price

I will not say that Ethereum will outperform bitcoin but im expecting quite a big run for ethereum because it has been in downtrend and now in consolidation and accumulation phase for months and with so many improvements and upgrades coming this year im eyeing a new all time high for ethereum by the end of this year.

With the way it's beginning to look I don't think any altcoins will outperform BTC this Summer. If we enter another exponential we won't stop below 20 thousand dollars again just like the last time when we approached 1000 and went through like it was nothing.

 I thought we wouldn't break 6000 especially with everybody saying that strong support acts as strong resistance if it gets broken and here we go.

In the case where the entire market depends on btc, it is unreasonable that this is possible. In the current case, btc means whole crypto itself. If something happens to btc, it means the collapse of the crypto market.

If it is this summer, it should be no. Currently in the market recovery, BTC is the representative, and other basic cryptocurrencies are centered on BTC. BTC rose first and other currencies were rising. If the theme is changed to spring 2021, I think there will be other currencies.

I don't think there is any. There is a reason why after many years BTC still remains the top cryptocurrency; to me I will say it is due to its features. Many individuals today owns BTC, but might not own altcoins, that is to show the trust in Bitcoin will always continue to make it more Valuable.

If you are looking forward to investing in an altcoins, you might not find one that will surpass bitcoin when it comes to the market cap or price, but in terms of growth, that is, ROI, you might find a lot of them.

If you take a good look at BTC and the way investors invest in it, you will see it is a clear sign of a project with great value, and it is this value that keeps driving or attracting more investors. So to your question, there is no altcoin that can outperform BTC.

i am more curious to know why you think that 10 year of same history is going to suddenly change this year? nothing is different so why should the market be any different!
in all these years it is only bitcoin that is performing well and all the rest of the altcoins have a short lived moment in the sun while they are getting pumped hard and that moment passes as fast as it came along and then the dumping begins!

Every coin has a chance, my bet is litecoin and cardano they are the biggest gainer this week, but there is no guaranty that they can do this all year long, my bet is still Bitcoin, altcoins price depends so much on Bitcoin, we are going to live and die on Bitcoin's price

Bitcoin continues to grow and there are no other coins that can outperform Bitcoin. Bitcoin has moved very far and is very difficult if pursued by other coins. Many proposed coins can reach Bitcoin like Ethereum. Until now Ethereum has not been able to reach like Bitcoin.

Irrespective of the fact that there are many altcoins out there with good market value, good team and use case I still don't think there is any that can outperform BTC not now nor in the future.
BTC has been heavily invested thus stands a better chance of growing more with each day.

Outperform in what way? Do you mean in price or takes over its crown ? If you are talking about the profit gains yea we will see that surely when altcoins start following the up thread price gain but if you mean taking over bitcoin crown that's not going to happen

Ethereum who will be able to compensate for the prestige of bitcoin and be able to come back again like two years ago and my capital will start to recover a bit and there will be no big losses again..

The question is probably rhetorical, because I don’t think that there are such altcoins that can really overshadow our main BTC project that is developing so successfully and will be developing further. Most likely there will be nothing of the kind.

None of the altcoins out there will be able to outperformed Bitcoin in any situation. We have seen this before and I don't think anything has changed. Bull-run can't even be possible without Bitcoin, so how will it be possible for any altcoin to outperformed it.

I do not think there is any altcoin that have the power to outperform Bitcoin, be it this year or years to come. When investors learns about cryptocurrencies, the first coin they always tend to buy is BTC, that is to say, BTC will continue growing and waxing strong.

For me withe the look of things, I would say Litecoin because of its coming halving, apart  from this Bitcoin will rule 2019, most of the IEO have being dropping off after their IEO and expect this to be the trend this year, most of this coin/tokens have no value they are offering and with the likelihood of more institutional investors entering the space, more money will flow into BTC

I don't know if it can outperform btc but I like bitcore-btx. Their team is really hardworking. I've been watching it for a while now and it looks like it is ready to go up.

I don't see any altcoins outperforming bitcoin ever, but very possible if you are talking about profit gains. There good altcoins that can give you much profit than BTC. You just have to do your personal research.

after the Bitcoin there are lots of other good investment available in this Crypto market but mostly I time to invest in ethereum after Bitcoin investment because it will only giving me the profit in the past that's why I am doing it for every time

Ethereum has a been a proven technology that people are using for real world applications. As a solid number 2 it is vastly under valued and can easily go up 10 during the next bull run. Keep some ETH to ensure you don't miss out

The only coin that is growing at a pace close to bitcoin now is ethereum. Despite that, it us not so close to it and that might not happen even in two years to this time.
Bitcoin has really gone far, to allow just any coin to surpass it.

I do not know if the question is well formulated, but from the point of view that I understand, you ask if what is the currency that will surpass bitcoin in the summer, and the answer is simple, none, for now there is no currency that can overcome Bitcoin, if we take into account the altcoins that exist, all depend directly on bitcoin, because when bitcoin goes up or down it affects all the altcoins, until now no currency has come out that makes it competitive, and if any, it has to be with Very particular characteristics, and would have to wait for the behavior of such currency in at least about 5 years to see what structure it can take.

I agree on you. Ethereum is also rising but it cannot compete with bitcoin's performance today. Bitcoin has made a quite huge increase in the previous days and might skyrocket even more in the next months. They have both potentials in the crypto market but still differ when it comes to performance.

First of all to outperform BTC we need BTC to stop growing, do we really need it?
As for my thoughts, I see ETH is underrated and its price is really low for now, so this is the first candidate.
Also, look at chinese market, NEO or ONT could beat it

In theory, it can look like possible but in practice, it is impossible to beat the coin with more than 50% dominance level. Btc is king and unbeatable in my opinion. It doesn't matter what kind of solution project brings to the ecosystem but competing with BTC and ETH is not possible.

Nothing like this will happen. Why did it occur to you that some altcoins can "outcome" Bitcoin? I suppose that Ethereum market capitalization will grow this summer, but this crypto will never get Bitcoin fame, popularity, power, and trust.
Some guys still think that Bitcoin cash can do it. No, it is hard to believe (for me) that this fork will exist for more than 6-7 years.

First I have never believed any altcoin is better or can be likened to Bitcoin, let alone predicting the one that will outperform it. Within this crypto space, I don't think there is any altcoin that will ever beat or outperform Bitcoin, as it is a coin on the lips of many thus being invested at all times.

No doubt Eth is the best altcoin of all time but in order to outperform Bitcoin, it would have to cover a long journey and this is because of the fact that Bitcoin has been more demanded and used than ETH. In addition, ETH has a market cap lower than Bitcoin and the pace of growth of ETH is not as high as that of Bitcoin which are the factors that negate what the OP thinks.

I think that at the moment there is no such coin that could surpass bitcoin and I doubt that it will appear.

If in profitability, then many coins can make x2-x10, since they are at the bottom. It will be very difficult for Bitcoin to make x2

I'm my opinion I don't think there is any alt that can out perform btc. Thou alt do bring large profit compare to btc when you have them in large quantities too. Btc is already to expensive to have it in large quantities is nearly impossible.

none of altcoin can outperform bitcoin when the next season arrives. bitcoin will be king and will not be invincible. I'm sure of that, because even during the bear market nobody can beat the dominance of bitcoin. then how can altcoin outperform bitcoin when bull?

yes you're right, maybe ethereum but that still has a great distance from bitcoin. so it's impossible if ethereum will rival bitcoin during the next bull. but despite that I'm sure, ethereum can be one of the altcoins that will erode the dominance of bitcoin.

For some reason I want to see this rivalry. I think that Ethereum has the right to have 50% of Bitcoin's total capitalization even now. Ethereum is very popular and is already being traded on more than 1000 sites and exchanges.

I don't think there will be any alts that can out perform btc when the market is very bullish, we can already see that from this past few days how btc have manage to dominate the whole market up 70% while other alts didn't experience  any growth,
Btc will still take the lead anytime bull run start because during this period some people sometimes sell their alts to hodl btc and make profit, it is what it is.

Of course, this can't be known in advance.

There are several projects that live. Therefore, in the next season, some altcoins are likely to make much more Xs than Bitcoin. This is especially true for heavily impaired assets. For example, Pundi-X, XYO, Dropil... This is what I quickly remembered from real live projects.

Altcoins are still struggling to raise from the bottom, BTC has outperformed them all, by such a huge dominance of almost 70 percent. I hoped that Bakkt would fix things, but right now I do not know what should happen to let altcoins increase in price.

What made you think Bakkt would decrease bitcoin dominance and make altcoins outperform BTC all of a sudden? I don't see any tangible links between the two events that you have suggested here.

I do think that BTC dominance is going to peak at around here, regardless of whether or not the bearish trend continues or we see a reversal in the market.

It's a good time to go long on coins that have had a proven track record in my opinion. I don't think that investing in IEOs and ICOs right now is a good idea since they are so saturated and ideas are repetitive, but proven coins like ETH, EOS and MIOTA can be undervalued when compared to their long term averages. Just don't trade on leverage, since nobody knows when a rally will actually kick off.

A lot of people already support Ethereum. Maybe it is because at last pump Ethereum is coin which really high and can give a lot of profit for it's holder. If me i am support ethereum because it is good coin for me after bitcoin.

Is it not glaring to you already that bakkt may still not have any effect on those altcoins, with the hype that bakkt started with before their launch, I expected that it will cause the market to overflow when they were released, but instead, it brought a bad news to the market by making bitcoin crash, although, I believe that it is just a coincidence, but at least, they should have made some impact first before those that had conspiracies to crash the market price came in.

Well, I believe that it is still a developing project and even if bakkt is going to have any effect on the market, it would only be on the market of bitcoin and may not affect altcoins that much. The only project that I anticipated would have effect on altcoin now is the Facebook Libra coin and the Ethereum 2.0 that will be released in 2020.

there will be no altcoin can outperform bitcoin my friend
bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency right, and without bitcoin there will be no altcoin in this world
thats why i never think if an altcoin can outperform bitcoin now or later buddy
regards

For the past 10years bitcoin has been the king of all crypto till date. Since then no altcoin has deemed fit to outperform bitcoin up till now. Don't think there would be such altcoin to do so in years to come.
Now altcoin are all depending on the rise of btc for them to be able to increase in price.

bitcoin is the beginning like a parent for altcoin and will remain number one like parents who give life to their children yes ,I don't think anyone can outperform bitcoin but the future we don't know yet a child will overtake their parents to be a decoration in the dark sky

so far no one has been able to predict with certainty the development of any cryptocurrency and altcoin investors' confidence and patience needed in investing if the value of ETH exceeds other crypto currencies, of course it's luck from investors themselves because as investors we must be able to take advantage every opportunity we will get in investing

OR maybe misleads?why always need to find something to outperformed Bitcoin?what would b3the benefits?will this bring you profit?
Why instead of looking for this one is find altcoins that may perform well?or may grow higher that enough to at least helps us recover from the past losses?
Anyway I am looking forward for ethereum to perform well not only in summer but to the next winter as well

crypto season hasn't happened yet. for altcoin which can grow better than the adoption of bitcoin on the market today will not be seen. bitcoin influence on the growth of the crypto market is still very large. today you certainly see how bitcoin moves the crypto market even though the decline is now happening again. the effects of the decline that occurred after the increase were also experienced by altcoin, and this market still has a chance to see how the altcoin season will come in the future when bitcoin increases and stabilizes the price above.

I just checked Neo and it's now up about $2.  Percentage wise, that's about on par with what bitcoin has done since yesterday.  I really don't want to shill any of my personal favorites here, because that's all you're going to get in a thread like this, but Neo is solid in my opinion.

You can't really go all that wrong if you just pick coins out of the top 50 on coinmarketcap, maybe the top 25 if you wanted to be safe.  If bitcoin continues to increase in value they will as well, but that's a big *if*.  I'm still not certain that the season has changed for altcoins, and people might be becoming too optimistic too soon.  Just 3 days ago all the threads were expressing bearish thoughts, and now the mood has changed completely.  I've been saying it's a good time to buy alts now, but the safest course of action is just to sit tight to see if this little bull run is real or not.

Most will. When Bitcoin will reach $20k and more a lot of hype will happen in around crypto. That will bring a lot of speculators and stupid money in crypto and they will just buy whatever it is listed on exchanges.

Nah, I think it'll be completely different this time. There's no oje that was in crypto in 2018 would've picked a lesson or two about following hype and buying chasing shitcoin pumps. If any altcoin 'might' outperform Bitcoin is the next uptrend, It'll be the ones with strong fundamentals (and maybe tech). Like BNB and Chainlink to name a few. Since 2020 is the year of Bitcoin thanks to the mining reward halving, I think more money would be flowing to bitcoin than altcoins.
