Bitcoin has no competition

[Vikingr]

I think you are right bitcoin do not have any competitors, as bitcoin is a bigger crypto currency and most people want to put their money in bitcoin and are using it as a currency while other coins are only used for trade,

You are right, now bitcoin is going to be a normal currency and a number of people have adopted it as a currency for their purchases, while all other currencies are for trade only their developers are not going to provide services with them.

Bitcoin has always been a currency. Same goes up for the investment aspect of Bitcoin. Bitcoin can be seen as a multi purpose tool that offers features for the majority of the people. I say majority because there is no way to please all people.

The Etheruem is the competition of the bitcoin. The market cap of Ethereum is about 10% of bitcoin. It will get bigger.

There is a people is saying if bitcoin is not a currency?that's a very bad logic and the main purpose of bitcoin has become an alternative currency. we don't know if in this time bitcoin will have multiple purposes.

haha, ethereum bag-holders wish it only.
ethereum is far from a note-worthy competition for bitcoin. it has nothing to offer and worst of all etehreum is centralized which will never help with the adoption.

and the only reason for a high market cap is because ethereum has a lot of coins available so low price multiplied by this massive amount of available supply (83.5 million) becomes  huge number.

if bitcoin had a scam premine like ethereum and had 83 million instead of 15 you could see only in your dreams to reach bitcoin market cap of 83 million

Bitcoin has been losing its market cap lead over the past years, but I still have faith in the cryptocurrency. It is a volatile currency and it has its highs and lows just like every other cryptocurrency.

I mean, it is going to take at least another 5 years before another altcoin can even be capable of taking the place of Bitcoin.

Yes, you are right, Ethereum's market cap is $940,376,672 which is impressive and it will get bigger in the future most likely, but Bitcoin's market cap is $9,111,309,781 and there are no reasons to think that it will be growing slower than for Ethereum.

Some are looking at it as a currency, some as an investment and some as a way of earning money. USD is used as a currency, we can invest with it and we can earn money from it. So Bitcoin is a currency.

[Cendassi]

All the banks are the competition though lol. Don't you think they are scared that big investors will jump the bitcoin train instead of splitting their money into different banks? Especially when the coins are going to be more stable, now they change too much though.

Money is what money does. To be a currency Bitcoin must widely be used as a means of payment (just like the US dollar), that is, for buying and selling real goods. Right now, it is mostly used as a vehicle for speculation ("buy low sell high")...

In this way, it is no more than a speculative financial asset, but not a currency, by any means

yes bitcoin created to compete with currency so it is not design to compete with alt and beside all alts are just relying
to btc price so how can they compete with their origin.

this is true but OP is not talking about any of the fiat currencies hence banks and your comment here are irrelevant.

he is talking about other altcoins and the way FUD people spread their lies about bitcoin is dead (the obituaries) one after another and claim their coin is going to replace bitcoin. like ethereum which we can now see is stuck at one price and getting dumped by everybody except the manipulators.

[Doamader]

All those FUDsters that where saying year ago how Bitcoin would fail because another currency would take over get proven wrong year after year. The more time Bticoin is alive, the stronger it gets and the bigger the network effect. Sorry but there will not be a Bitcoin 2.0. Bitcoin will go to 100k+ per coin in the next 5 to 10 years, it will absorb all the value researched in the field if not directly through protocol improvements then through sidechains.

Bitcoin will remain the only solid coin. The only coin that survived for the longest time (other coins can't claim this unless they invent a time machine).
There will be alts that pump really hard and make people millionaires, but no alt is going to surpass Bitcoin's strength and solidity. No coin will get a bigger marketcap. In the long term people holding 21+ BTC will be rewarded by history with rich-tier status for seeing the value in it before most people did. Do not let the FUDsters trick your mind or the trolls try to derrail the excellent job being done by Core devs.

Let's continue then our path towards inevitable triumph.

Well bitcoin maybe be the crypto of the future i do believe that, but isnt the best or the easy way to achieve financial freedom, as you stated altcoins pumping are making people milionaries, thats a great wish i would like to achieve, and keep with bitcoins. Some altcoins will die over the years, thats normal and the cycle of life.

bitcoin is a cryptocurrency not like ordinary currency,bitcoin have so many advantages in digital world but could be easily beaten when it comes to real world,the ordinary currency having some sort of advantages in real world or call it offline because it was designed for this,actually altcoin could compete with bitcoin even it's still relying to bitcoin price

I disagree with that how can a coin compete a currency as all other altcoins do not have bigger companies as supporters and if have then only one or two and with that these altcoins can be beaten any time, while bitcoin has a wider market cap and have a large number of companies who are supporting for and are relying on it for their business.

There are some major retailers that accept Bitcoin- Steam (games),Newegg.com (computer parts), Overstock.com.
And with companies like Coinbase working with retailers to help them accept payments that you fund in BTC, you can actually buy a decent amount of things. 

But I agree. It's still mainly an asset for speculation. That's why the price isn't moving much right now IMO. 
We need more retailers, or another online service like iTunes etc to start accepting Bitcoin if we want to see growth continue and the value rise.

I've heard about Steam finally having made up their mind about accepting Bitcoin (after so many years of asking, begging, and praying), but these are still rare and far in between examples (or exceptions). Moreover, the retailers like Dell or Newegg may still not accept bitcoins directly but rather use payment processors like BitPay and keep selling their merchandise for fiat as before. Once there was much ado about some company allegedly accepting bitcoins as payment for Tesla cars...

While in fact it was no more than a marketing device to attract new buyers

Yeah, the competition in the digital currency will not be able to penetrate in the bitcoin. Because the bitcoin already has a very strong foundation and all existing altcoin is as a complement to strengthening growth bitcoin. So it is not true. Bitcoin will remain a leading digital currencies and will never be replaced by existing altcoin

I am agree with you, it is gonna be risky hold alt coin in long term becouse easily to gone someday. But with the alt coin can pump our bitcoin easily.
