Monero without a doubt, for the privacy aspect, and automatic block size adjustment as features that are already better than bitcoin.
There is so much development going on in the Monero sphere that I don't think any other alt comes close.
It's the only other crypto that I own right now. I don't have to wait for the end of the world in bitcoin to invest/hedge in another crypto.
Surprised it took so long to see Monero mentioned. If something "bad" happens to bitcoin it will likely be due to government taking advantage of the transparent and non-fungible nature of bitcoin to attack or co-opt it. In this scenario, Monero is the obvious choice as it would be resilient against such attacks.

Monero but for a different reason. The biggest threat to Bitcoin right now is the XT vs Core fight over the blocksize limit. This is a direct result of a fixed blocksize limit baked into the protocol that requires a hard fork to change. Monero does not have this problem since 1) It uses an adaptive blocksize limit and 2) It has a small perpetual emission that ensures the viability of the adaptive blocksize limit.

Frankly, if Bitcoin failed due to inability to reach consensus over something as trivial as max block size, then it would show that the entire concept of decentralised cryptocurrencies is a joke. Every crypto will face similar problems sooner or later, and it could also fail, unless it's centralised or have only one influential dev.
On subject, apart from BTC I use/own doge, monero, clams and ethereum so I'd probably stick to these.
This is exactly how I feel about the current debate. That's why I am pretty confident that we will over become the current problems and exit stronger out of this mess. We might see price decreases as a result of the current block size debate, but this should also be just temporary!

Why can't anyone on this thread answer the damn question, the question was IF not will BITCOIN have anything bad happen.
The perfect coin that probably we should be using instead of Bitcoin anyway is Vanila Coin. New code, sub second transfer, solved double spend so no need to wait for confirmations, soon to be anonomous. If there is a quicker, safer, better coin I would love to hear about it.

Hi,
I wonder If somthing bad happend to bitcoin what cryptocurrency will you use ? is there any good cryptocurrencies out there ? and you are planning to use ? or are you waiting for a new crypto ?
Thank u.
it depends on your definition of something bad that can happen? if you mean the rises and falls of price, then it is nothing bad at all. so i don't see any reason why i should change. but if bitcoin were to be useless and without any value or in other words if it dies i would never consider any other cryptocurrency . i would cut my losses and leave crypto world behind me.

Then i would prefer to use litecoin or maybe dash. Currently according to me they are safe to invest some money into.

16% of the words are misspelled in the first sentence, then it looks like things started improving for you. Something already bad has happened to bitcoin and many more bad things will probably happen also. Bad things happened early to Microsoft and Facebook, but they're still happily kicking. I would say there's no reason to wait before exploring other currencies. Goldcoin (GLD) probably has the most 'Satoshi like' developer. So I would have to recommend GLD as my favorite alternative at the moment. There are lots of others flying under the radar too, you just have to do some digging to uncover the gems.

Actually, I'd head for the proverbial storm cellar and wait out the wrath wreaked on all cryptocurrencies. As the trader boyz rediscovered in the '08-'09 crisis: "In a bear market, all correlations go to one." I.e.: in a ----storm, every vehicle gets hit with a lot of ----.
And then, I'd poke my head out and survey the wreckage. Any alt that survives that "Mother of All Stress Tests," I'd consider buying & using. To be honest, my first look-over candidates would be NXT and HZ. DOGE would likely pull through: their community is big & very resilient.
