Can other cryptocurrency ovetake bitcoin inthe future?

[Rooster101]

With many new cryptocurrencies sprouting in the net, is it possible that bitcoin can be overtaken as a top digital currency in the future? Is ethereum  or other well known cryptocurrencies can be a threat to bitcoin dominance?

This topic already exists here.
But since you've asked I say everything is possible. Maybe in the future some new even more developed and perfect cryptocurrency will be invented. Technology is moving forward constantly.
But I don't think that Ethereum will take the Bitcoins place, it's not very likely.

Maybe yes or maybe no,crypto currency is evolving,another inovation in crypto currency may come tomorrow,we will not know Bitcoin is now popular and the price is still rising but it's still possible that another crypto currency could come and give Bitcoin a competition.

No, Bitcoin is all the needed. You can build virtually anything arounds Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is crap, Transactions overload problems, code can't be updated by Dev Team because the Chinese Mining Pools won't let them.
Price is being artificially inflated by it Centralized Miners.
(Does anyone believe that crap is really worth $700, sucker born ever minute)
Wastes loads of electricity that will raise everyone electric bills.

The question is not When will another Crypto take over,
The question should be How has BTC hung on to the top spot this long?
(Sad reason, is most people don't really understand the technical issues, they will learn and it is going to cost them)

Ethereum is essentially a Zombie.  Ever since the DAO, and like MtGox for Bitcoin, will ever hit $15 again?!   

If something overtakes Bitcoin then it has to be scandal free.  Monero might do it if they can put Rpietila under house arrest..

Not tomorrow but the "Bitcoin killer" is coming...

The technical innovation of this paper combines the unbounded participation of [redacted] with the bounded election of [redacted]; and which entirely ameliorates the power-law distribution’s otherwise deleterious ability to dictate transaction fees (or analogously the distribution of minted dilution as a substitute for transaction fees), double-spend, and/or censor transactions.

Note I should add that even a 100% attack can't double-spend nor censor transactions. This will sound loony to those who are knowledgeable, but it is only because they don't yet understand the paradigm-shift.

Why use  Dash when there is Zcash?  

Because they both rhyme with "trash"   (joke)

Its very hard to say, perhaps ethereum can take over bitcoin in future. Nobody is 100 percent sure. It may or may not happen. We will have to wait and see. I am expecting bitcoin to keep going forward and be the market leader in future too.

[TaunSew]

I think NEM will be the number one cryptocurrency.  NEM is the first coin intended to be egalitarian and it had a fair distribution to 1000s.

[Subtuppel]

Short answer: No, sorry but bitcoin come first. Maybe in 5 years, but in short term bitcoin will be the number 1.

[c4s7or]

Nothing in the digital world lasts forever so there is a chance bitcoin will be replaced sometime. But for the next years I dont see an alternative.

[shamzblueworld]

As BTC was the first one, it now has a good user base now, it would be hard to beat them at their game. Unless something very drastic happens, like some governments meet up and initiate their own approved digital currency which is accepted by most of the business world.

[tyz]

Depends what you mean with "future". Near future or the future in 100 years? In the next 10 years, I do not believe that Bitcoin will face a serious competitor. Ethereum for instance, was hyped very much by media and it is probably the technology which could get along with Bitcoin, but Bitcoin is still 13-14 times more worth. This shows how big the gap between Bitcoin and all other altcoins is.

[aioc]

Everything is possible,Bitcoin is the first but everyday we see new crypto currency coming up with superior features and ease of use and everyone can adopt .
We must become open minded that everything needs an update and something is missing in Bitcoin..

No that's not going to be happen, Though many of the altcoins rises in the crypto currencies that build big community in crypto world but it doesn't mean they replace bitcoin their price value might increase but still bitcoin will prevail in the price.

[coin-investor]

At this point of time,none just check the volume and the marketcap and you'll see the big gap,maybe in the near future a new crypto currency will emerge that can meet everybody;s expectation..
