Will bitcoin eventually kill Altcoin?

[richardfisk]

BTC are actually benefiting them (most of them)

Only the strongest survives! Lots of alts with similar features, we would see dominance by certain cryptocurrencies, some would just dies off

I agree with you. Bitcoin and some altcoins are greater than others and they will dominate the cryptocurrency. From my perspective, in the future, about 10 years later, there will be only 10 to 20 coins survive and other coins will be considered as trashcoin and will be vanished forever

The question should be will one of the altcoins ever kill bitcoin? I know that we like to believe in bitcoin that it will last forever and will be the future of digital money, but speaking technologically, there surely will be much better coins. We are just starting to see new altcoins that are popping out almost everyday. Bitcoin was the first of it's kind but someone in few years will probably develop a better tool, a better currency. Now there are hundreds of altcoin, in few years, or even I'd talk about a year or so, most of them will be dead, some already died and were living only to be speculated than dumped and never used again.

Well, I don't think so... There is so much to implement in other altcoins and eventually cryptos such as Ethereum will take over Bitcoin... Bitcoin doesn't have much to offer than Ethereum

And when will this happen? In 2366.?
Look, if bitcoin dies most of altcoins will die. People will try to find exit and they will exchange all altcoins to - guess what? Bitcoin.

Yeah agree if bitcoin dies most of altcoins will die as well.

20 coins will remain and another more sets of  shitcoin will be created. So we better think of what coins we will be holding for long for it may have a big value on the future or vise versa, the result of our decision now can affect the future.

Yeah, I feel that 90% of the coins will be dead in a few years. I think some of the ones remaining will have massive market shares.

Well Bitcoin and Altcoins is like an ecosystem if bitcoin could pump up and so are the other coins, because these coins exist because of bitcoin, and bitcoin is like a father to them, and if you are seeing that bitcoin pump up it's price and an altcoin would go on a dip I think that coin dip is not related to bitcoin pumping up but a negative outcome on that particular coin.

[ryanben]

I don't agree with you
It is true that BTC prices have a strong influence on the Altcoin but you forgot that the market is now very small compared to the common ground. Everything is just the beginning of a big event that is going to happen and that will create a whole new perspective on the market.

Yeah, and in past days we are see the price of most crypto on market are recovery, some altcoin increasing x2 as DGB. After this happens, I can sure BTC at now is the reason decisive the price other crypto down or up. If Bitcoin breakdown in next time, other crypto will breakdown too!

Every time bitcoin price goes up,Altcoin price take a dip.No doubt bitcoin rule the crypto world and sooner or later it will become mainstream.
Once it happens, btc will be worth million dollar.Will then all Altcoin be died?Seems Altcoin price are inversely proportional to btc price, if btc keep rising, will Altcoin keep falling? .

Maybe is a direct relation on that people sell altcoins to buy BTC and the other way around. But good altcoins with a reason to exist will hold their value. Example: ETH.

That does not happen all the time, most of the time when bitcoin goes up there is a delayed response in altcoins, if you are quick enough you can take advantage of this and buy cheaper altcoin for a few moments and then get even more profits that way.

Bitcoin will never kill altcoins. Bitcoin only supports altcoin and make the cryptocurrency world become better. As you can see, there are many altcoins follow the bitcoin path and right now, they are gaining a huge price with a good market cap. Right now, once bitcoin increase its price, altcoin will make the same move

Not all altcoins, you can notice that the prices of ether based altcoins are related to ether price, unless they have bitcoin reserve, some projects have bitcoin and ether reserve which is good point in my opinion.

Most of the coins in the market today are going to disappear but if you think in the future there are only going to be 10 to 20 coins that is a mistake, since many more coins are going to be created in the next years since the market for alts keeps growing.

Yeah of course alt kept growing and eventually it dies if it's price will not be valuable for a long time. Since bitcoin is the top od most currencies today it doesn't gives justifications that itself killed the alts. Alts wi remain as promising as bitcoin did if ever it's type of coin will really bit the bigger spike of the edge of digital currency just one example of that coin is ethereum. It just started an ICO project previously then by long period of in trading it showed bigger potential in the marketplace and it's now second to bitcoin in the crypto currency market.

Nope, its not. Bitcoin is useless without altcoins. I think the reason of why the price of bitcoin is rise is because of altcoins. For my own analysis, as you can see in the graph from 2014 upto this year 2017. The bitcoin price is continue increasing and the altcoins is increased in numbers. Therefore, the many altcoins made the more bitcoin price increase.

all the coin are depend on bitcoin and can run without it. after 1 august this will be clear no body can clear about this problem.and if any body is saying something about it that is their assumption. and that is not 100% accurate.

We will see on August what can really happen, there were news that the August 1 event will be delay but as of now bitcointalk news as read above it says that we still need to prepare,so let's hope for the fast recovery of coins if dumps really occur or hope for successful development if ever.

It altcoins offer differences/benefits to people/investors no reasong to get killed

Most of the altcoins value depends on bitcoin, that really means, when bitcoin pumps, obviously the price of altcoins will not follow the dump of the price of bitcoin because the bitcoin is the only one pumping not the altcoin. Bitcoin's pump don't include the pump of altcoins.

Where did you get that information? FYI Bitcoin is the father of all cryptocurrency, thus alt-coins is just a clone copied of bitcoin codes. Both value of bitcoin and alt-coins is different but only based in USD fiat currency. If bitcoin price is getting high it is because the demands is getting high compared to the supplies which is going to be limited.
