But I thought bitcoin was not simply a vehicle for increasing our fiat holdings rather a new global asset where our savings can safely be stored in a decentralised liquid medium of exchange that theoretically should still increase in value against fiat/production over time even with full adoption, similar to how gold did in the past centuries. 

I guess I was wrong, I will now consider hodling until I can guess when the S-curve plays out and then sell

My take on Alt coin fever:
- Most coins made by few developers
- Made for purpose to drip or dump for BTC (obviously) as low cost for new coin and can make easy 100-200k or BTC off the suckers
- I’ve bee looking for a while and there are some good alts out there but its all about BTC even LTC in my opinion doesn't serve a need, 'it’s BTC silver' -give me a break. Although I do own some cause I can see demand.  SBC is currently most undervalued coin by far. Talented developer (Artos) and mixing service features that could potentially be first to be released on alt market and at current its MV is 700k even con's like BBQ and Earthcoin are over 1m, what a joke.  Who is buying this crap
- Alt fever will taper off shortly as ppl will understand they are irrelevant and get tired of same rubbish (doge was peak of this and the rest are boring).  Which is great as bad alts will swim naked
- Sure alts have some promising features but won’t compete with BTC hashing power for foreseeable future
- Most people are gambling to increase BTC position (you all know it)

Most importantly we are still early in Crypto game and if you want to play own some BTC first and consider what you put in alts an amount that if you lose you wouldn’t cry over.
