Bitcoin is declining as top crypto currency. Why?

Bitcoin is not declining as the top currency, it still has maintained itself as the top currency in the crypto universe and the most recognized and gaining the most complete adoption and recognition IMO, Even the rise in ethereum is just a temporary thing.

I think with respect to the news, the acceptance in stores and so on, bitcoin is still the leading crypto. It is now more a question for the future if we manage to achieve lower transaction fees and faster transaction confirmation processes. Bitcoin definitely has proven to offer the required security and reliability level to be the crypto of the future.

Its currently  declining and goes down slowly by this stage because huge amount of users are switching to altcoins now because of the issue of slow and big transactions fees which is the cause of declining in popularity

And why do you think bitcoin is being surpassed be Eth, could you please elaborate in more detail? In twenty four hours ethereum trading volumes passed bitcoin trading according to data from CoinMarketCap on tuesday. But I don't think that is sufficient "proof" that bitcoin is less popular all of a sudden. If Eth sustains higher trading volumes over a longer period, then maybe we can say Eth is provably more popular than bitcoin.  It is nowhere near it for now.

Agree, why many people stated that ethereum could surpass bitcoin as number 1 cryptocurrency due to small increases of eth, I mean bitcoin price at $2600 and ethereum still below $400, how could it compete with bitcoin prices? When segwit activated, then bitcoin price will skyrocket again, even before segwit be activated, people will trigger to invest on bitcoin. I just consider ethereum as an alternative, so it's called altcoins, used for trading purpose.

Bitcoin will still be miles ahead of Ether. The little pull back noticed is as a result of some countries auctioning their Bitcoin stake(South Korea). Bitcoin will surely continue its upwards movement as more and more countries are working towards total acceptance as means of exchange.
