I think this is something nearly impossible to happen in the coming days. We never know what will happen in the future and that is absolutely right that future is uncertain and we cannot predict what will happen next. But saying this that it will drop to such a significant amount will be something unjust.

In my opinion, no. If that happens it will probably be a big collaborative effort from the start. I don't think that such a coin would start with a small group and low adoption at it's infancy, it would most likely be a big portion of people and developers from Bitcoin and other projects, they would join together to make a wallet that is as secure and reviewed as Bitcoin Core and a new protocol that is superior to it. However, this does seem like it would most likely just be a hard fork of Bitcoin, since people owning BTC would also back this up.

Big profits, like the ones that happened with Bitcoin are only there when something big happens. They don't happen if it is just some new altcoin, someone had a good idea and it blows up like that. The idea has to be amazing, revolutionary, bigger then anything else in that area before it, not just better, but more of a ground breaker. Cryptocurrency is an amazing tech, it is so much more complex then fiat, it is truly revolutionary and still it exist for over 8 years and all of them combined are having a hard time battling fiat. It grows, but it is nowhere near having even 1% of the market. It is really hard to take down an established system.

news!~China approves bitcoin!!! weeeeeeee

I think all of them has taken this mutual step to stop the fraud which was increasing day by day. Every other day a person starts a new altcoin and start the ICO and get lots of money on the name of investing in ICO, and then run away with all those money. Not all ICO are bad but still its a good move to discourage scan via ICO.

Do you know how dumb that comment is?! Governments crushing cryptos??? Ehhmm NO! It's all about ICOs! Just ICOs! And only in China! There are a few more countries out there I would guess right?! The market is overreacting as we've seen so often when you some news came out which may only influence a small portion of the market in the future. Nothing of a big deal. Just a dip you should take advantage of. That's it!

To be honest, if Litecoin was going to surpass Bitcoin or even Ethereum, it would have done so by now. It is an old altcoin, created 6 years ago. Some of the better privacy coins might stay in use for some while, but I think that the nature of Bitcoin will be that it might fork when benefits are clear and obvious. By the nature of blockchains, it doesn't really make too much sense for multiple of them to exist at the same time. Altcoins simply don't have the support to make too much hardforks probably, since people might just want to make a new one instead and profit more.

Bitcoin will crash when Alliens attacks us and turn off internet.

Why would BTC care of any war on Earth? It will only gain traction since will be a way to trade with people on other side of a front line.

I seriously doubt China and Russia would go to war with USA over North Korea. But it would cause a serious damage to the region, so North Korea will probably not get attacked unless they attack first. In event of real WW3 Bitcoin may go down, since people would be scared to hold something that may become useless in case of nuclear war, but a regional conflict might only boost Bitcoin, since it serves as a hedge against fiat currency and its economy.

IMO, its safer if they put their wealth incase they both go to war cause btc is pegged in usd. If its world war maybe btc will crash cause certainly the internet would be cut off.

I expect there are a few people who are shorting the South Korean won, who would definitely want war to break out. If North Korea makes an outright hostile move against another nation, it will likely be met by disabling strikes from the military of all the nearby nations. Kim Jong Un, in a last-ditch effort to retain power in North Korea even if nowhere else, would respond by doing his best to flatten Seoul. He'd probably manage to destroy a decent portion of the city, which would have disastrous effects on the won - it's already wavered a bit lately with all the tension.

That being said, I also think it's unlikely. Kim Jong Un is no madman, and he'd have to be to actually launch an attack first. Trump is also no madman, despite appearances, and he knows he's close to being impeached already. If he loses the support of the rest of the country by starting WW3 with a pre-emptive strike on North Korea, even after every world government has announced that they will not support the US in that situation, he'd be gone as near instantly as things can ever happen with big government; probably a week or two at most. He's already got a pretty substantial case built against him for obstruction of justice, which will only be averted by the fact that Republicans control the entire government and can ignore anything they find inconvenient - and don't get me wrong, Democrats can, and do, ignore everything they find inconvenient most of the time as well. I'm a moderate myself, and simply expressing frustration with the fact that our government is a loud, partisan nightmare that can't legislate its way out of a paper bag.

I don't know how you got to that conclusion I literally just bashed Ethereum on how it is inferior as a currency in every way. I hope you didn't confuse and thought I was talking other way around. I meant that Ethereum is too centralized, too big of a blockchain, too buggy and doing controversial changes like the DAO fork. But if you understood correctly and still reached the same conclusion, then good. As I said, good luck with that
