What will you do if some altcoin (XMR or ETH for example surpasses the value of BTC, either in market cap or by the price of a token each? Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin, or continue using and holding BTC? Also, what do you think are the chances that it could happen? I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions.

It can't happen since BTC is here from the beginning, or maybe in a few decades so it's easy to see it coming.

Anything is possible but Bitcoin currently enjoys a 10X price premium versus its closest competitor. Another coin, such as ETH could potentially overtake in in market-cap one day, but I still think that would be a few years off. Myself, I hold BTC as well as many of the popular alts, so I would probably continue to hold a variety of promising coins including BTC if it were to ever become dethroned.

I just dont see this happening anytime in the near term. Bitcoin is what everyone thinks of when they hear cryptocurrency. The name has barely even scratched the surface of educating the public. To overtake Bitcoin you would have to erase all the progress made on saying Bitcoin is the future and that altcoins can serve other purposes. If an altcoin surpasses Bitcoin I would expect the overall market to be in alot of trouble. Not saying it cant happen but I would expect that to take many years of development and innovation to be possible.

The only currency that can surpass the value of btc is eth. Its becoming quite popular. Quick transaction times and low fees is another plus plus point of eth over btc.

If you're freaked out by a coin's individual units being worth more then you should abandon Bitcoin right now because there've been more than a few already. 42 coin stands out as the main example. That's because there were 42 in total. Kiddies should do their homework and figure out how many there are in total.
As for market cap, I think it's quite possible something else could go past on a run. Would it be the end of the world? I think it's time people let go of the idea of it being all about Bitcoin. There are projects that have no aspiration to be a currency or store of value that could be worth more. The only competition they're in with BTC is the funds sloshing around exchanges.
In that scenario I wouldn't care.

there already are a couple of altcoins with higher price than bitcoin there are already other altcoins with bigger market cap than bitcoin too! Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin,
being "valuable" is not defined by price nor by market cap. the value is the coin itself, the network, the wallets, the security of the code, the hashrate, the services, merchants, users,... Also, what do you think are the chances that it could happen?
it has already happened so the chance is 100% it is just price, not "value" though
here is the list in case you were wondering: coin name ....... price Bit20 $199,075 (~200K) Project-X $165,012 42-coin $8509.41 Primalbase Token $4566.06 bitBTC $4540.86

Nothing happens, we keep having and trading bitcoin still. Ethereum can pass bitcoin in the future but this doesn't change the balance betwee bitcoin and others. I mean bitcoin doesn't become weak because of this.

Yes I agree to you that it takes time to compete the price of bitcoin. Bitcoin now is a strong currency because there are many investors and supporters of bitcoin that don't want to dump the price of bitcoin even there is a bad news that appear and cause the price to dump it is some ways to attract more people to buy bitcoin.

Actually there is... Lol. It's just a joke. I found it on google. This is a scam. They call it "the billion coin"(TBC). This is a scam because you can't see its marketcap at coinmarketcap. Also several bad reviews from reputable sources. But seriously, i don't see any altcoin which gonna surpass bitcoin. But of course its too early to say that. Maybe after a year, there's an altcon surpasses bitcoin. Time will tell... But as of now, bitcoin is really unstoppable because the community is getting bigger and bigger each day. So to see bitcoin surpassed by an altcoin is unimaginable.

XMR or ETH for example surpasses the value of BTC I barely doubt that these coins will cross the value of bitcoin because they don't have that much market capitalisation and they will never achieve one. It needs attention of big investors who believes in the coin but surely there will be none as long as bitcoin is there. Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin, Ahh! Well first of all the first thing should be clear then we can talk about this. But that would be obvious if any other coin surpasses the bitcoin then we will have to switch there. what do you think are the chances that it could happen? That would be null.

for me, i thinks its not, no one alt-coins can surpass bitcoin, but if has one alt-coins can surpass bitcoin, maybe i will sell mine (bitcoin) and buy more "valuable" coin to earn much profits than the existing one. but its never gonna happen dude, wake up and dont assume that one of those altcoin youve mentioned has a potential to surpass bitcoin in the future but its not. because bitcoin is the only one original cryptocurrency leading in the market that cannot copy/imitate by its own value and price.

People should stop focus on the value of an altcoin or their market caps. Altcoins enjoy no actual usage other than the speculative aspect, and that's something people here don't seem to think about.
There have already been altcoins with a higher unit value than Bitcoin, and there have been several altcoins with a higher market cap than Bitcoin ~ it's absolutely meaningless.
No altcoin comes even close to the level of usage that Bitcoin experiences, or how secure its network is, or how much money is going through its ecosystem, and that's the most important thing here.
Altcoins come and go, and due to cheap tricks they can have a massive market cap, or a massive unit value, but that's as I said, meaningless. Bitcoin remains the first and only crypto coin that enjoys the far majority of the support.

You panic over things that are probably not a issue at all. Even if a Alt coin becomes more popular than Bitcoin, it would not mean that it would be the end of Bitcoin. People still buy other cars, even if one model become more popular than the others. People buy coins for different reasons... some people could stay with Bitcoin, because it was the original coin.

Anything is possible, but this will not happen this year or in the next 5-10 years. Bitcoin was the first so it is a factor why this might not happen, but to answer your question i will still hold on to my bitcoin as i dont see this happening soon however, i can start trading little by little with alt coin converting bitcoin to alt coin and vice versa, this way you gain profit little by little and if you think that another alt coin will overtake bitcoin then trade or sell what you have.

the question should be ,,, "is another altcoin able to surpass the current bitcoin value"? there are several reasons why bitcoin is currently superior to other altcoins, such as because cryptocurrency is able to give trust to its users, but it does not rule out other altcoin can be higher than bitcoin ,,

Not in the next 5 years I would say. It's going to take a tremendous amount of new innovation for any new coin to overtake Bitcoin. That being said, the upcoming potential hard fork that would call itself Bitcoin might be one of the only chance that is going to present in the near future.

this is one of the question that is always being asked. mostly the reason is because people see the rise of bitcoin from nothing to $5000 and still rising and think to themselves they have missed out and the only way is to find something that is still in that "nothing" stage so they can buy it.
but it is a mistake. bitcoin is still in the "nothing" stage when you consider the future price is going to be $200,000!
also these altcoins are not really doing anything these days. obviously they are profitable but you should not expect much out of them in the long term. they get pumped short term and then die off.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip. Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

It will be huge for sure if another coin surpasses bitcoin, but I don't think it could happen. There is a reason why bitcoin remained superior from other coins out there you know, and it is really hard to believe that some coin can defeat the reigning bitcoin. And if by some miracle that a coin surpasses bitcoin, I will still not sell my bitcoin and exchange it with the new one because I have a lot of faith that bitcoin will make its comeback and take back its throne.

This has happened, not in terms of cost, not capitalization. Although there are altcoys that cost millions of dollars, but most likely they serve money laundering and transactions without taxes. Bitcoin is the father. A lot of things depend on it both in the value and volatility of the market, both individually and in total capitalization.

I feel that most altcoins do not serve any actual usage, BUT we have a few such as XMR and ETH that actually have real life usages (privacy and smart contracts) while others have low transaction fees (DOGE or BURST for example). I somewhat agree with many of your thoughts that it would basically be impossible to happen in the next 5 years - but note that 5 years relatively long time. With more and more people getting interested in crypto, BTC is going to be traded a fair lot. However the increased interest will probably result in a higher chance of people developing alts that are "revolutionary" in some sense and be as sought after as BTC.

ITs possible, this is what Ethereum fans are calling the Flippening over on Reddit. If it does happen my reaction would depend on the reason, if its a case of the rise of another currency then no problem. However, if it happened because of a law in BTC that would be a different story. I expect BTC will retain a premium spot as a store of value/a kind of a gold standard for a long time. It is a little cumbersome for small, fast transactions - therefore another currency might rise in popularity without hurting BTC.

Actually there is another altcoin that surpasses BTC in value per coin not market cap, that coin is called 42Coin. 42Coin has a price of around $8k per coin as of now, and guess what? That didn't make Bitcoin users to switch to 42Coin. In the end, price has a little role in increasing the number of coin users.

Stole my reply the price for all these coins is entirely too speculative. even the price of bitcoin, in this loft state, has no price basis in reality. price isnt a selling point; price can spike at 100% in these markets. Therefore, price is not an indicator of interest/popularity. Above poster also has an extremely valid point about adoption. 42 coin is pretty old, yet the market cap is utter shit. price doe not equal popularity, as it does in traditional asset markets. Price indicates speculative enthusiasm, in this space

There's no chance. Bitcoin price is too much high. It take some times or i should say a years to increase altcoin value upto bitcoin. Do you know what's the bitcoin first price ? It was 0.31$ in 2010 and now it surpass 4000$. I heard it can cross 10000$ in future. So currently its all Bitcoin and no chances of any altcoins.

I don't see any potential coin that would somehow surpass bitcoin's value in the market. If there is any potential alt coin in the market or a coin that is still in the making right now, maybe it can only matched BTC's value but can not surpassed because i think that a BTC's value will rise to million per BTC in the future.

here is the list in case you were wondering: coin name ....... price Bit20 $199,075 (~200K) Project-X $165,012 42-coin $8509.41 Primalbase Token $4566.06 bitBTC $4540.86 Bit20 has $0 Trading Volume (24h) Project-X has $236 Trading Volume (24h) 42-coin - $601 Trading Volume (24h) Primalbase Token - $6,397 Trading Volume (24h) which is better than of the above ones but still is similar to the Trading Volume of the worst coins around. bitBTC has $78,911 Trading Volume (24h) which is also too low to be taken seriously. As far as I know, the only coin that surpassed Bitcoin in price and at the same time had a decent trading volume, was Zcash. But that lasted only 5 days in the very beginning of the coin's existence and never happened again.

it may happen because eth and other coins have potential to surpassed bitcoin in the future maybe in 5 years or more but there still a chance that bitcoin will be the number one because more people use it that other coins, but nothing is impossible it may happen or not we don't know the outcome.

I believe it already happened. It's quite possible that an altcoin has already surpassed bitcoin in value but nothing significant has happened nor did it make much of an impact. Bitcoin remains to reign supreme among all of the cryptocurrencies and it will continue to do so as compared to other cryptocurrencies. It's still more popular and widely used by the crypto users. I agree that in terms of usage, Bitcoin is still more superior and this is the reason why no altcoin would surpass Bitcoin. Bitcoin will continue to be popular because of its usage and security of network.

This can not happen because the number of bitcoins is limited. The quantity of ETH is not limited. This means that in the future ETH will experience the brunt of inflation. After ETH will reach its peak will fall that cannot be stopped.

It may happen in the future i guess it is depend on the investors which coins they are going to support from the time being to the future. Success of the coins depends on the investors who continue to invest on it. So if majority of the investors wanted to replace bitcoin on the top spot anything can happen.

I would stay with Bitcoins. But i also would invest in a Coin which is rising rapidly and seems to bypass BTC in the next Weeks/Months I don't think i would sell all my BTC just to buy more of the "more valuable" coin at that time. BTC is on the market for a pretty long time.. this gives safety.
This of course is a different thing if BTC drops to the bottom pretty rapidly..

Instead of we assuming what will happen, I think its better we all wait till that time to know what we will happen the reason is because human beings by default like to predict their behaviour before hand only to behave on the contrary when faced with such scenerio. For those that are saying its not possible, I am sure several would be the first to dump btc in case that should happen for the next best alternative.

Anything can happen any time but no coin has that much value to surpass BTC. Maybe it will happen in future as no one can predict the future of anything and altcoin market is very volatile now a days. Till date, no coin can surpass BTC in any circumstances.

Definitely possible but not very likely, since there are more miners for BTC and also a lot more community support to it than any other coins, and also it is the first of it's kind, thus it has attained the greatest value, and attracts the most number of people. There is definitely no chance of this in the near future, as long as some news does not cause HUGE decline in the market cap of bitcoin, as people will definitely adopt whichever crypto which is the most profitable to them. At the moment its BTC. It may change in the future, and in that case BTC will only be considered an altcoin. The future is unpredictable, so nothing certain can be said.
All we can do is wait and watch.

If you're saying BTC value per coin then 42coin has surpassed BTC in value per coin . 42Coin is priced at 2.08 BTC per coin as of now or roughly $8892.92. Even though it's priced more expensive than Bitcoin, and since there is nothing special about it, people aren't gonna use 42Coin the same way as people using Bitcoin.

A few months back, Ethereum came quite close to surpassing Bitcoin in terms of market cap. ETH has its own advantages, such as the low transaction fee and compatibility with the tokens. But the drawback is that it has fewer number of users when compared to BTC, and that some of the devs looks quite shady.

What will you do if some altcoin (XMR or ETH for example surpasses the value of BTC, either in market cap or by the price of a token each? Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin, or continue using and holding BTC? Also, what do you think are the chances that it could happen? I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions.
It won't ever happen don't you worry about it, for simple reason, there no coin capable of crossing it. All these coins are alt, they are a copy of it, they will never be able to generate the buzz Bitcoin does, even today crypto currency is regocnized only by the name of Bitcoins, so you should not worry so much about it. I would never sell my coins in any scenario, till I need funds, and I don't stock alts cause I don't rate them, they are not worth it.

i can see this happening if those greedy bastards keep hardforking bitcoin for easy profits. etherium has the potendial to compete with bitcoin as in most exhanges you can already trade X/ETH with most tokens aswell there will be exchanges that will be selling and buying ETH for fiats pretty soon.

Investors go where there is the most money to make. If for some reason, a new version of bitcoin comes out after every split, that might not be good for bitcoin. The decentralization aspect is being taken advantage by some just to make some money that results in splits. Only time will tell if bitcoin maintains its hold of the number one crypto currency and people would be the ultimate judge on where it goes from there.

If ever I will still hold because bitcoin value is still high the only different now is that there is now another digital currency that surpass its value. But I think by now it will not happen.

There was maybe a chance that Ethereum was going to do it last year, but it never happened because in the end the supply of ETH is unlimited and nobody was buying to HOLD they were buying to SELL.

I'm not sure how to answer that. But let me share a piece of my mind
I'm a cryptocurrency trader and I notice that the price ofvother digital asset based on Blockchain technology have a similar price curve as Bitcoin. If Bitcoin price decline, other digital asset also decline, and vise versa. But this only occurs with Blockchain asset that have close rank with Bitcoin.
So im uncertain that any altcoin can surpass Bitcoin, not in this coming few years at least

If this coin over bitcoin by technology like more anonymous, low fee or 0 fee, fast transaction, decentralized and have support from many people in the world. why not you buy it?

I think I still go with btc because we all know that all the coins are the same in terms of value that always chaning eventhough otger coins surprass btc in value nothing will happen because we can convert some coins to btc. And of course we all know that the main coins we use is btc.

When Bitcoin prices starts falling, every single altcoin starts doing the same thing, so i really don't see this happening! If Bitcoins dies, the whole crypto space will die with it.

there has been a LOT more altcoins with a lot higher prices than bitcoin. ZCash just made more noise to become more public specially because of its mining. someone pointed out something interesting that people always forget: when bitcoin price goes down altcoins get dumped hard. that has to show something

if alt coin goes beyond the btc value, that is impossible. maybe in terms of platform, eth is superior. because many projects use blockchain eth. but btc enthusiasts will not recede because btc is the ancestor of all coins

Just like you I will still hold my bitcoins if there is another altcoin who would manage to surpass it. Bitcoin has been the most popular crypto for years and I don't think that it will die as soon as another altcoin rises. I also believed that bitcoin will not be easily surpassed, for years many people had been using bitcoin as a major equivalent token in trading. Bitcoin may decreased its value but it will not die. However, if another altcoin won over bitcoin, I hope that it will have lower transaction fees and faster transactions process.

I doubt that another currency will surpass Bitcoin in value. But, if we assume, then I'll use both currencies.

Nothing is impossible. But so far so good we see the performance of Bitcoin is remarkable. keep this track in mind we sure and confidence about Bitcoin it is very difficult to surpasses by another altcoin.
We no need to worry or think about comparison of Bitcoin with another altcoin.

If Ethereum or Zcash bypass bitcoin in value I should be very happy as I am mining them and many others are doing the same with their rigs. The problem is this will never happen because Bitcoin is the king of the cryptos and is much more widely accepted in online stores, casinos, steam and many other website where you can pay a subscription online. No one asks for Ethereum or Monero or Zcash payment, they all ask for Bitcoin first.

No. I will not sell my bitcoin because why do you sell bitcoin just to another cryptocurrency with only higher value? You can invest on both cryptocurrencies we all know bitcoin can do so just keep holding even if bitcoin is surpassed by another cryptocurrency. For now, no one will surpass bitcoin

I think it is impossible for such a thing to happen since bitcoin was the first coin and it is almost 10 years old. Also there is a huge difference of price, bitcoins price is 10 times bigger than any other altcoin. Now bitcoin is also used in some online and offline shops and the market for it is bigger and bigger. An altcoin cant surpass bitcoin because it has to grow a lot in a very short time wich cant happen becsuse altcoins price ar determined from bitcoin price. They all grow together. When the bitcoin price goes down also they ethereum price goes down

I don't think it will happen since the rest of the alt coins and other crypto currencies depend their value appreciation in bitcoin. It is consider as the mother of all cryptos and nothing will ever surpass it but just in case it happen I will still keep on bitcoin because it has serve to become the strongest among cryptos abd surely whatecer dump it may ecoerience it will still rise and appreciate

It is unlikely that any altcoin in the near future is able to bypass bitcoin at a price or capitalization. Too large gap. However, if such a fantastic event happens, it is always necessary to remember the high volatility of the crypto currency. Therefore, you do not need to rush to buy those coins that go to the leaders at a cost. All this can be temporary. Before you transfer a part of the currency to another, a more successful digital currency, you need to make sure that for its growth there were objective reasons. And with bitcoin if the money is to be rented, then only partially, in any case no more than thirty percent. Bitcoin will always regain his lead. Equal to it yet.

The chances that will happen is high because of competition of all altcoin. But it would take some time before it happened. If that happens I would still keep some of my bitcoin.

It's possible, however, I think for now it is not. Because as you know bitcoin started unpopular and it already had established it's name in the crypto currency world. So, I think there's no crypto currency yet that can surpass what bitcoin had gone through.

Who can invest in those kind of ico's? i still dont understand it.

If that will happen, then we must accept the reality that it is a part of bitcoin journey. Even though other alts surpass bitcoin but still I'll keep holding on it because there is a big possibility that it will back again. Unless bitcoin price almost zero value, then its time to shift for another one. Anyway, they are all digital currency and belongs to crypto world, it's gonna be the same process in making transactions.

Altcoin beat the bitcoin price, it may happen, considering the price of other digital coin also increased and did not close the possibility will be equivalent to bitcoin price even more in the future. and if that happens, of course I will invest my money to a more profitable cryptocurrency, I will not sell my btc to buy another digital coin, but I will invest in both.

Please, read this thread carefully. There are several altcoins which are higher in value than Bitcoin. Do they really cost anything is another question, but it is a fact that their price in USD is higher than of Bitcoin's. But if we reformulate the topic question to "Can any other altcoin be more important than Bitcoin?" then I would answer no, Bitcoion has always been and will always remain the most important crypto.

For me the situation wherein a certain coin can surpass the bitcoin's price in the future is simply impossible. Bitcoin is now being looked upon by some people as jewelry that someone must possess. And this adds to the reason why its price continuously grows despite all of the hindrances. Therefore other altcoins may drastically increase in price but never to the point that it can surpass bitcoin.

What will you do if some altcoin (XMR or ETH for example surpasses the value of BTC, either in market cap or by the price of a token each? Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin, or continue using and holding BTC? Also, what do you think are the chances that it could happen? I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions.
I think that only one coin can exceed the cost of bitcoin. The ether has a leader - Vitalik Buterin. He is actively engaged in improving this coin. I see no other options. For a long time now, Vitalik's Ethereum is considered to be the next in the throne of the one occupied by Bitcoin right now. But for now, it remains to be a potential rather than a fact as the value is now playing in the vicinity of $300. Now, I am holding both Bitcoin and Ethereum because I believe in the potential of these two cryptocurrencies. However, we don't have the future in our hands as there can be things to happen beyond our control...both Bitcoin and Ethereum have both history of crashes but they could also gain back fast. Now, what if Ethereum would one day overtake Bitcoin in terms of value? Well, we should then accept it in case it would be true...there is no problem with that and I would still continue holding on both coins. I am sure that Vitalik would be so happy if this can come true soon. For now, Bitcoin remains to be at the top even with the recent bans in China.

as far as i know bitcoin is the chief of cryptocurrency because it is first coins which crypto based. i will keep use bitcoin. of course there is very possible to another cryptocurrency compete bitcoin but bitcoin has so big community of users as well. it would be very long lasting.

We all know that Bitcoin is the number one cryptocurrency in the world. So, to beat down Bitcoin is not easy and will take decades. But, I heard some people say that other crypto like ETH is developing something that will surpasses the BTC. Maybe it's protocol. We will see in the future. For me personally use Bitcoin as investment and collect only. I want to mine, but not with Bitcoin. That because the price is too high and the competitors is too much right now. The mining system will get harder too.

I think that Bitcoin will still as the first valuable crypto currency online for a very long time. Actually all the altcoins depend in teir prices and trading status with Bitcoin, I am not seeking any altcoin could surpass BTC in the near future at least
Please, read this thread carefully. There are several altcoins which are higher in value than Bitcoin. Do they really cost anything is another question, but it is a fact that their price in USD is higher than of Bitcoin's. But if we reformulate the topic question to "Can any other altcoin be more important than Bitcoin?" then I would answer no, Bitcoion has always been and will always remain the most important crypto. I have the same thought that BTC is the most important crypto money that has been kept by wider usage for the investors. Due to the expectation on the long run btc might perform better than all, this is what we have current situation. It increased more than 400% in this year compare to last year, it fluctuates a lot but in a period of time it is worth to keep it.

There is no big deal if some altcoins surpasses the bitcoin in value because it is just a value and they can't surpasses bitcoin in features and the things that bitcoin has. Bitcoin has a lot of great things that can be only found on itself and any altcoins doesn't have any chance for that to beat bitcoin and replace it.

I think the possibility is very far, because in terms of price BTC has a high price compared to other altcoin. It took a long time to compete with BTC. I think that for the moment there is no altcoin like it that can do that, but in the future it is likely to happen. The only currency that can exceed the value of btc is eth. It became very popular. Fast transaction time and low cost is plus plus value over other btc. So just enjoy what is right now and not be afraid about the upcoming changes.

There is always the possibility of that happening, in my opinion BITCOIN has the highest value because it's the pioneer in the world of cryptocurrencies but as time goes on more and more cryptos will come out and investors are actually the only ones who can make another coin value go higher than bitcoins if they feel it will make them more money.

In my opinion there is a very little chance that it will happen. Using the scale of 100% there is only 15% that it will happen. But if it will happen, I think we will be the one that will benefit from it also because aside from additional investment we can also gain additional profit from both coins.

i think it never happen but similar to bitcoin atleast ,if that will happen i think i will go to high value coin and invest a little in bitcoin then try to be expert in new coin like i search wallet or anything to know the new coins high than bitcoin What do you understand by the term "Altcoin "? The new coin you're talking about is an Altcoin and so no new coin can be another Bitcoin even if their operations are similar and uses the blockchain as well.

None of the altcoin that has been appeared in this forum or in this field of industry surpasses the value of bitcoin, still Ethereum so far was the second to the bitcoin digital currency.

In the future , may be some other altcoin surpasses BTC value . But for now bitcoin is 10 times the price of other altcoins . Maybe , ETH one day be able to surpass bitcoins because of its growth rate , but it is still going to take many years in order to fulfill that agenda . Bitcoin is still the most trusted cryptocurrency and most of the people tend to invest on bitcoins because of its high volatility . Many other altcoins comes and goes but the support bitcoin has is not going to be effected by all that .

I would not sell bitcoin, and buy that alt at that high value will also be not a wise option. But if we see a coin going towards bitcoin at market cap, it will be a good investment, even if it does not match or went pass bitcoin value.

The only altcoin which is having a remote chance of surpassing the market cap of Bitcoin is Bitcoin Cash (BCH). I am quite skeptical about the other alts such as Ripple and Ethereum. Till now I haven't found anything to justify the huge market caps of these altcoins. On the other hand, BCH is having solid basics, and a good team to support.

I'm sure it will not happen, because btc is the benchmark of all altcoin prices, if in btc banknote it is as the primary currency of the dollar. If that's the case, then I'll replace it with the altcoin you mentioned. because I want to make a profit.

I agree that bitcoin will not be outrun by some Altcoins only you can always use the value of bitcoin as an explanation for some critics and bitcoin will still continue to be number 1 no Altcoins can surely overtake it period. no pun intended because any one you would talk to here in the forum except Kwuk if you know him, then trusting in bitcoin is a 99% must.

Your question brought me 3 months back, when I spent a week trying to find an answer for this famous question ! In fact, the statistics and the forecasts excludes that such a thing took place in the next 5 years at most, but no one can deny that the other altcoins are still in a progression that could realize that.

We live to see but al these Altcoins are just a mere copy and upgrade of Bitcoin and should they change their ways or a new coin with completely different technology can give Bitcoin a good run else the clones have nothing more to offer than they at doing currently.

Bitcoin is the head coin, so if it raises or loses value it remains the same. So there is no use to compare bitcoin with other altcoins, people who love bitcoin always invest in it and search for other coins which is best at that time, that doesn't mean that other coins surpass BTC in value.

I do not think that this will happen, at least in the near future. Because Bitcoin can be called the original cryptocurrency, which went through a hard way of its growth, and possibly even better years of Bitcoin ahead of.

The last time I checked, the was another coin which had a total supply of 85 coins and only 49.9 in circulation, I think its worth about 2.03btc I think: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/42-coin/. I recommend you read about it and edit your thread. Back to your question, I will hold on to my bitcoins since I am aware that even if whatever coin may arise, they are still valuable. You might find that its one of those pump and dumps which falls overnight.

I think XMR and ETH price can get over Bitcoin price only when the total amount of Bitcoin all over the world is mined and some more hard fork happened make Bitcoin price dumped in the future. I think at that time I'll try to sold my Bitcoin before all amount of Bitcoin mined out and maybe I'll exchange some of my Bitcoin into other better altcoin. But in my opinion it only can happen in at least next 10 years.

I think that it is almost impossible, there's still a long road of adaption for BTC and during that proces I don't think any altcoin will surpass BTCs value. Though I think it is very possible that once the world has become adapted to BTC and crypto is a more daily practice of life that there is potential for other coins to grow bigger than BTC. But right now you have to take in account that BTC is traded mainly for all other currencies and this reaffirms its position over other coins.

Even when the entire number of coins that can be mined has reached the circulation, the value of bitcoin won't be overcome by other altcoins that grow high in value. Being the base always has it importance over other assets that make it more valuable due to the limited supply and increased demand.

Even BCH market demand not upto the mark when compare with the bitcoin's market capital value. It will never happen at all. Since bitcoin is the first and best digital currency none of the coins can compete with bitcoin at anytime even in future as well. Those altcoins will be able to compete with each other alone at anytime. You can invest on altcoin to make profit nothing other usage with those coins till now.

For the current scenario I don't see any currency beating Bitcoin. Maybe Etherum can reach to even more heights because of the potential it is showing currently. But the valur of Bitcoin will still be high in future compared to other coins as the price of bitcoin will also increase with time right?. If because of any reason there is a stop in the growth of Bitcoin prices then Etherum can surpass Bitcoin in the future.

Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin, or continue using and holding BTC? Also, what do you think are the chances that it could happen?

As of this moment, the value of Bitcoin is way higher than any alt coin so it will be hard for them to catch up since Bitcoin's market value is again increasing ,knowing that there will be a hardfork and if it will be successful as the previous one, altcoin might be left out. But that's still possible, the question is, will it be in long term? or how long will it last if it will surpass Bitcoin? Altcoins are good for short term investment, Bitcoin still is better in long term so I would stick to Bitcoin.

It nearly happened with ethereum earlier this year. It won't happen unless more hard forks happen which might take some of the value of orginal bitcoin away.

For now bitcoin is strongest cryptocurrency out there, but it is not impossible for some altcoin to beat bitcoin on market. That altcoin would need to be better than bitcoin in everything, it need to be faster in transactions and it needs to be worth more than bitcoin. That would be for start.

It's possible that any Alt Coins can surpass Bitcoin's value since Bitcoin was started as low as a penny on its first launched and the momentum of every digital currencies are relying on the help of an effective marketing and advertising as well as the core itself has the best impression to investors then its a fair game for the blockchain technology.

The value of Bitcoin is highest among all the altcoins and it is still increasing at a very fast rate.The only altcoin that has a tendency to surpass BTC in value is ETH .It is just because of its growth rate in past few days but the chances are least or we can say it will take many years to surpass BTC in value . The demand for Bitcoin is increasing at a very fast rate which is increasing its price and making it the best investment asset.So i dont think any altcoin will able to surpass BTC in value.

in the past there was some coins that was minted and distributed as "rare" coin, with scarce availability. these coins have an individual value more then btc, so we have already an example. but an altcoin that can be used by everyone and isn't distributed among all potential users, it's just useless. by the way, it's really hard we see a new project like btc that could surpass in the value and even distribution. now btc is already know by main stream ( a lot of people know it and people don't think you're completely crazy when talk about btc ) . so imagine "the new btc" as promo for a new altcoins... no seems impossible to me...

Eventhough it is impossibe this will happen, but the question is interesting. If and only bitcoin will on its lowest dip soon over 1000$ below that is the only chance that either XRM or ethereum can surpass. But higher to that is too much expectation and much exaggerated. If I will rate it from 1 - 10 and 10 as the highest probability to happen. I would say 2 as of today. We might happen in the furture but only thing I can surely do is HODL bitcoin no matter what the price and I’m not much of an altcoin guy but opened for possibilities.

Right now this is very impossible to happen. Bitcoin has a very huge gap even from its closest comoetitor which is ethereum. With bitcoin's price still on the rise, it is hard to see any altcoin surpassing it not even in ten years.

if for altcoin can exceed bitcoin, i think still take a long time at least 5-6 years. and if it happens I will try to survive in bitcoin. because if I think bitcoin will definitely stay better of altcoin

It is impossible for that to happen because the prices grow in parallel. When the bitcoin prices go up also the ehtereum price go up. On the other way if the they bitcoin price decreases also they ethereum price decreases. The only altcoin that can surpass bitcoin would be a coin that is fully controlled by USA or CHINA government wich seems pretty impossible for now

I think this is fair because all the developers are making better coins, what I'm looking for from bitcoin and other coins is profitable and as long as the bitcoin is profitable then I will use and if it is not profitable of course I leave it and replace it with another coin.

Yes the next future of crypto is eth . becuase if the supply of bitcoin is exhausted i think the bitcoin will going down little by little but for now i can say that the value of bitcoin is continiously to increase.

There could be a possibility that any altcoins could surpass bitcoin, its just that, its gonna take some time, we know that bitcoin is the leading coin out there because it has lots of investors, now if there is a coin there that would be the same as bitcoin that has caught the eyes of the investors, then I can say that it will equal to bitcoin, or it might even surpass bitcoin, but it will surely take time.

It is not likely, but possible. I think it will be great to diversify. In fact, there're already very good reasons to diversify as some of the coins have very good roi.

The most important is the price obviously, even the market cap mean nothing in crypto world due to some reasons. How if we discuss about this when an altcoin could reach at least $1000? There are few coins that ever reach that point such as bitcoin cash, byteball (almost) and Monkey (MNY), but none of them could stand at the point for a long time. Which mean, there's no any coin that could surpass bitcoin value.

the future is a mystery, there is always a possibility that can happen in the future. if some altcoin surpasses the value of BTC, I will not think much and will instantly invest my money to thid altcoin, because I will invest my money on the profitable thing.

indeed in the world of cryptocurrency all possibilities could happen, but i will still hold my btc as parent of altcoin because i think even though XMR or ETH can surpass BTC, it will not last long.

I think it is not possible for some altcoin to overcome Bitcoin. All of the altcoins are Bitcoin based. I mean, look at the exchange sites, how can you buy an altcoin? Of course through Bitcoin (and some via Ethereum). Aside from that, Bitcoin is the one who started it all. Therefore, it is the mther of all coins. And lastly, it is the only coin with unknown developers. We inly know its developer by the name of Satoshi Nakamoto.

I think it will not happen, because bitcoin has been set as the parent of all coins, so if other altcoin prices rise, then bitcoin will also increase, because I think brands are mutually mutual. But not also close the possibility that it will happen.

Let’s assume that by some miracle bitcoin was out throned by another coin, then it will be treated by traders no other way as bitcoin when it went up in the charts. It will be just another coin with a high value that many will take advantage of..

It is not the same concept in bitcoin. If bitcoin will die then the altcoins will survive because there is already a lot of exchanges that accepts other altcoins as an exchange to other and not only bitcoin and the perfect example for that is the ethereum coin which you can use to trade altcoins in different exchanges.

Leave it like that then. So be it. But i don't think Bitcoin's value that time will be too low compared to the coin that surpasses its value and i don't think that i will be selling my bitcoins just to have the more valuable coin in the market. But it will be a good idea to invest that new coin instead rather than selling my bitcoins that i have so I'll be keeping my bitcoins and hold it as long as its value keeps on rising that time.

nothing is impossible even in the cryptoworld and so, if an altcoin happens to surpass the greatness of btc, then be it. but me buying those tokens will still depend on the coins performance and progress over the months or years it stayed on top of the list. however, it will take quite a long time for this coin to surpass btc and developers will need a lot of effort and time to be able to achieve such goal.

I consider bitcoin as an investment and if I see another altcoin that would surpass it then maybe I would shift to that coin simply because I would invest to the coin that would be more profitable. Another option is to invest as well to that altcoin not leaving bitcoin totally because it might be just temporary because of a hype. Bitcoin has a strong support from its community that's why it always goes back up because of the demand and if another altcoin would totally surpass bitcoin in terms of demand, price and support then maybe I would invest more to this altcoin.

I'd stick to Bitcoin ofcourse. That is possible to happen but we all know that altcoin is only good for short term investment and Bitcoin is still better for long term investment. One good example is ETH since it is oftenly used in ICOs it has a chance to reach the same market cap of Bitcoin, but Bitcoin still has a large market value. So I will still hold my Bitcoin no matter what.

Maybe it will take many years but knowing bitcoin it's so far to happen. Of course when an altcoin rises, bitcoin will also rise like bitcoin will be never left out to this world. Bitcoin will always be the best and father of all coins. And thinking bitcoin is too big to defeat by anything not anyone.

It can't happen since BTC is here from the beginning, or maybe in a few decades so it's easy to see it coming.
If we make a comparison of all the coins present in the world of crypto currencies, then there will be only one name at the top of list and that is Bitcoin since the time this concept of Bitcoin was introduced. We never know what will happen in the future but I am very much positive that Bitcoin will remain on the top of list.

I think that Bitcoin will still as the first valuable crypto currency online for a very long time. Actually all the altcoins depend in teir prices and trading status with Bitcoin, I am not seeking any altcoin could surpass BTC in the near future at least
Please, read this thread carefully. There are several altcoins which are higher in value than Bitcoin. Do they really cost anything is another question, but it is a fact that their price in USD is higher than of Bitcoin's. But if we reformulate the topic question to "Can any other altcoin be more important than Bitcoin?" then I would answer no, Bitcoion has always been and will always remain the most important crypto. I have the same thought that BTC is the most important crypto money that has been kept by wider usage for the investors. Due to the expectation on the long run btc might perform better than all, this is what we have current situation. It increased more than 400% in this year compare to last year, it fluctuates a lot but in a period of time it is worth to keep it. Yep, the biggest mistake some holders make is panic selling when Bitcoin goes down. Keeping it for a longer time is the key. It was shown to us many times that however low Bitcoin falls it will recover with time and will rise even more than before. We can't say the same about other cryptos, although keeping some of them is not a bad idea too. It's just pretty hard to determine which ones exactly.

Actually there is another altcoin that surpasses BTC in value per coin not market cap, that coin is called 42Coin. 42Coin has a price of around $8k per coin as of now, and guess what? That didn't make Bitcoin users to switch to 42Coin. In the end, price has a little role in increasing the number of coin users.
Stole my reply the price for all these coins is entirely too speculative. even the price of bitcoin, in this loft state, has no price basis in reality. price isnt a selling point; price can spike at 100% in these markets. Therefore, price is not an indicator of interest/popularity. Above poster also has an extremely valid point about adoption. 42 coin is pretty old, yet the market cap is utter shit. price doe not equal popularity, as it does in traditional asset markets. Price indicates speculative enthusiasm, in this space Possibility to surpass the bitcoin is up to zero percent and no coin is so much credible and trustable so that people can left the bitcoin and go toward it, bitcoin is not just coin it is name of excellence believe and faith so don’t get into such debate bitcoin will stay at the top it is a trend setter and no one will cross the boss who has hold of crypto.

It would matter little and not be as solid. Bitcoin is the coin that traders buy with FIAT to purchase other coins. That is a big reason for its power. The exchanges only use a few coins as a base for trading and Bitcoin has more access points from FIAT than the others. You cannot get Fiat with any alt unless you convert it in bitcoins. This can be consider on factor of bitcoin domination.

yes, it's even possible that ETH become the first coin in coinmarketcap. Never heard about DAO platform or ETC (ethereum classic?) ? https://blockgeeks.com/guides/what-is-ethereum-classic/This example could help you to understand why probably eth is not the best option as altcoin.

What will you do if some altcoin (XMR or ETH for example surpasses the value of BTC, either in market cap or by the price of a token each? Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin, or continue using and holding BTC? Also, what do you think are the chances that it could happen? I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions.
i think it never happen but similar to bitcoin atleast ,if that will happen i think i will go to high value coin and invest a little in bitcoin then try to be expert in new coin like i search wallet or anything to know the new coins high than bitcoin What do you understand by the term "Altcoin "? The new coin you're talking about is an Altcoin and so no new coin can be another Bitcoin even if their operations are similar and uses the blockchain as well. Even there are altcoins or maybe the coins from splits,like BCH will not surpass btc value,btc can recover from downs. Btc will always be the superior among any coins. most popular and some altcoin cant be popular with out bitcoin as a mother of all coin and nothing can ever compared i think and super agree with that no coin can surpass the btc now. No other coin is competing to bitcoin in the market, price is not the main circle of influence popularity also matters and all over the world folks are talking about bitcoin because it is acceptable across many region and it is the most valuable and strong coin of era and no other coin can gain such a strength and value like bitcoin.

Of course it can be possible but very difficult.
Even people support some alts, every time BTC goes down market crashes... A lot of people use alts just to get more BTC. As I said it can happen... But not in the coming years.

As far as I know the valuation of all altcoins depends on the bitcoin because they consider it as the mother and the benchmark of their price so I don't think there would be an altcoin that can surpass the value of bitcoin and if that will happen maybe bitcoin is no longer the main crypto currency that is being accepted and use worldwide.

Bitcoin would then fall, because then many people will see that it has no potential anymore. Everyone will then invest in that altcoin. This is possible, because bitcoin is unstable.
However Bitcoin holds a massive amount of market price so i think that it would be not so easily.

I'm not gonna sell my btc due to the reason that an altcoin surpassed its value in any sense. Everything is possible and will likely happen depending on the circumstances so there might be a chance that an altcoin took btc's place. Don't hate me on this I'm just an open minded person. So, let's say that it actually happens I'll continue investing in btc and invest with the said altcoin using my money instead of having to sell btc. In that case, I will have more investments in various coins.

There are many adoption is upcoming with the bitcoin and its all platform where all people are investing to it.

Ultimately, the currency will win, which will have the most developed infrastructure and the most deshovaya in use. The course does not affect the future of the currency. Therefore, I will keep my bitcoins.

It is not going to happen for the next 100 years I guess. Look at the number of users. ETH is miles behind Bitcoin in that regard. And look at the number of places accepting ETH. Compared to the number of stores and shops accepting BTC, the same for ETH is quite minuscule. And recently, the ETH adoption has suffered several setbacks, especially in China.

There is always the possibility of that happening and in my opinion, it's going to happen very soon. As soon as investors see that bitcoin is not giving them enough profits and they view that another cryptocurrency is going to give them the exact thing, they are going to flock towards it and make their money.

Actually, I'm not thinking about it because I believe that it is a bit impossible at this moment, looking only the values and gaps of bitcoin and other altcoins. Despite some speculations that ETH will sooner or later take over BTC and will be the next BTC and the hard forks that happened, look at where bitcoin is right now, it is miles away from the other. Well, we cannot ignore the fact that there's a possibility, who knows right but I guess that's only a tiny one and it will surely take more and more years before it will gonna happen.

I think It is not possible cause no other coin is able to reach near the BTC. But, If will happen that any altcoin surpasses BTC then there is nothing to be worry cause Market will be more stronger and we will find a good competition.

maybe ethereum is the only altcoin that has that potential. but we will not know what will happen in the future. at this time a lot of new altcoins are appearing and I think one of them will appear altcoin which also has the potential to beat bitcoin.

well i think if that is gonna happen maybe something is wrong with the market or i mean cryptos has been disrupt by some events that could possibly force bitcoin go down and some altcoins will beat it in value. But theoretically as of now that is impossible, if bitcoin value goes down way hard, other cryptos might go down as well since they have significant direct relationship because they circulate on the same place which is the blockchain.

When Bitcoin prices starts falling, every single altcoin starts doing the same thing, so i really don't see this happening! If Bitcoins dies, the whole crypto space will die with it.
There is no other coin competing bitcoin in the market and about ZCASH who know about it, price is not the main circle of influence popularity also matters and all over the world folks are talking about bitcoin because it is acceptable across many region and it is the most valuable and strong coin of era and no other coin can gain such a popularity and progress.

Wel if you insist lol i think maybe not possible though that two are the nearest but so far ahead in bitcoin values bitcoin is so far ahead even on eth and xmr bitcoin has been going for 8 year now what is 8 years of advance than other altcoins. Altcoins depends on fees not like bitcoin on some cases dont have fees to exchange but some transactions are but it all starts with no fees to handle i think it is almost impossible but if bitcoin will be going out business that will come though or that time will bitcoin will be surpassed

I think it is not possible for some altcoin to overcome Bitcoin. All of the altcoins are Bitcoin based. I mean, look at the exchange sites, how can you buy an altcoin? Of course through Bitcoin (and some via Ethereum). Aside from that, Bitcoin is the one who started it all. Therefore, it is the mther of all coins. And lastly, it is the only coin with unknown developers. We inly know its developer by the name of Satoshi Nakamoto.
Yes I agree it's impossible for other altcoin to overcome Bitcoin. It's like a tree, Bitcoin is the root and the altcoins are the branches. Without the root the tree will die. It is not like that. There is no rocket science behind this fact that bitcoin is only famous just of having big profit ratios. As now, if another coin with more profit ratio would be developed, believe me there is nothing about bitcoins would be remained on news. It is just matter of money and profits whosoever can make more that will be the king.

Unlikely, BTC represents like real-world gold in terms of value, it serves as it hedging currency to provide value for other alts as well. Resistance to change is very high unless the alts reach audience and users within a very far coverage like ETH (milliosn and millions of frequent users). Taking BTC spots is very difficult as the legacy properties it holds as the pioneer of cryptocurrency.
The market would definitely adjusted accordingly by the time you mentioned came, look how alts built on Ethereum blockchain/smart contract are depending its native ETH.

In today's condition,chances seem to be very less for an altcoin to surpass the value of bitcoin.No such potential coin is found till now.At once,Ethereum was expected more.But it already had faced a hard fork and just got split in to ETH and ETC.
Even the most expected Monero and Zcash which provided full anonymity in transactions as an added feature have also failed to succeed bitcoin.
Now,we are now just seeing most new coins as just pump and dump coins which does not deliver any thing unique.
It seems that only Bitcoin would continue to be the king of crypto currencies for far more years.

Even other altcoin surpass btc I still wont shift interest because if that time happen and I dont have that certain coin dont think there would still be too much significance if I buy cause thats too expensive already.

What do you mean by "another altcoin surpasses btc in price" cause as far as I know there are no altcoins which surpassed bitcoin in price. But anyway even if some altcoin surpass bitcoin I will keep on using bitcoins just because I love bitcoin of course I will still use the new altcoin but won't as much as bitcoin. But I don't think any altcoins even ether has the potential to reach what bitcoin has reached.

Then it is good, as long as the value of bitcoins never drops or totally destroyed, it is good for us because there are another coins that is worth to invest. With that we can now have a lot of coins to invest in that we know that our money will not be wasted. If ever that ethereum surpass bitcoins it is in favor of me because I have saving all of my ethereum and I'm hoping that their value will also rise just what bitcoins are today. So if that happen I'm gonna be a millionaire in no time.

Well, I am using only one cryptocurrency and that is bitcoin. I do not think that some altcoins will surpass bitcoin because bitcoin is the most popular one. It is the first and very well stabilized digital currency. All emerging and existing digital currency prices were based on bitcoin price. In case it happened, I will just buy some altcoin but I will not lose my bitcoin because I trust this and I live with it.

After seeing the present growth rate of Bitcoin , we cant even think of any other altcoin surpassing BTC in value. But if some other altcoin such as ETH which is also growing at a fast rate surpasses BTC in value then demand for BTC will drop which will have a bad effect on the price as price will also drop down.People will start giving preference to ETH and will stop using BTC which will destroy BTC .
Presently 1BTC is approximately 4700$ and 1ETH is approximately 305 $ which means there is a huge difference between the price and on the basis of current price it looks impossible that any other altcoin will surpass BTC in value.

In the past years i have felt that is is always good to have bitcoin at any time rather than having any altcoin, at the end of the day all altcoins seems like gambling to me in which eventually the organisation wins. Hope i had more bitcoins.

What will you do if some altcoin (XMR or ETH for example surpasses the value of BTC, either in market cap or by the price of a token each? Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin, or continue using and holding BTC? Also, what do you think are the chances that it could happen? I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions.
Anything can be happened in the Crypto_currency world. but as a my opinion i don't think so it can be or if it will happen i will continue using and holding BTC.

In my observation, maybe someday there could be one or few coins that can pass the bitcoins price, but it is quiet impossible. To think that since the beginning bitcoin was already there and should we say the mother of all crypto.

Even in the more distant future, bitcoin is not threatened by the fact that it can be circumvented by the cost of some altcoyin. The second after bitcoin in the capitalization table is the etherium, which is more than ten times cheaper than bitcoin. Therefore, bitcoin is the undisputed leader of all crypto-currencies.

There are more coins can cross the btc value in future. One of them is ETH surely it's will going to get more future in coming days so my suggestion you can buy now and sell in future more than btc value.

First of all I don't think that will happen, second I will basically do nothing if ever another altcoin will surpass BTC. And I don't think there is an altcoin meant to create for that reason now, most of the coins usually has a purpose why it is created and not to just surpass Bitcoin so I'm sure BTC don't feel threatened at all.

Bitcoins are one of the highest volumes in the market. And if there is more then it will be harder for them. Because it is trusted by all people. The only way to beat it is to follow his course and the years he has surpassed. That way, an Altcoins can exceed the price of bitcoins. The future is faintly readable so we go through the flow and accept everything happening

I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions.
Mr. Adam Smith will also find it difficult to figure what exactly can happen to the crypto currency world economically. Altcoins have a bigger capital than bitcoin, which makes its supply to be way more than its demand, people want to buy altcoins at a cheaper price and sell it for 100%,200%,300% profit. That's only part where altcoins come to play, it cannot compete against bitcoin in other aspects.

If XMR or Eth surpasses bitcoin someday i would still hold half of my btc and sell the other half to buy the altcoin that surpasses btc. the reason for this is that if before news breaks out like eth for example surpasses btc it will spread like wild fire and the effect will be large scale. but before the news takes effect on the exchange that's the right time to sell btc and buy altcoins so The price of btc is still high at that time. After that wait for that altcoin price to rise even more then sell some of it to get profit and buy btc at a lower price. The reason for buying btc is that the btc will surely will make a comeback thus increasing more profits. Just remember in any trading buy low and sell high and you will surely get profit. Do not let greed and making decisions without thinking take over you.

That is possible that another altcoin surpass in BTC if its community become bigger and Bitcoin technology become obsolete. If so then I believe people will move in to the more advanced and have real application one. But I believe there will be a transition period and Bitcoin community will have enough time to adjust and move since takeover do not happen overnight.

Being able to pass Bitcoin at this time is really hard because Bitcoin is always a top priority and investors prefer to invest in Bitcoin more. I think if you want the altcoin to pass Bitcoin then the altcoin must have a new revolution and be trusted by many people.

I don't see any altcoin to be able to surpass Bitcoin in short term. This is due to the fact that BTC has been here for a very long time as the first crypto. One exception, of course, would be if something unexpected would happen. Even if it would surpass BTC i would still hold/keep coins. Im not saying i wouldn't also Invest in the surpassing coin.

I think there is no chance that an altcoin will surpassed bitcoin because bitcoin is the superior of all cryptocurrencies but if that happens I will convert some of my bitcoins into that altcoin so that I will earn profit on both cryptocurrencies. Also, I am sure that bitcoin will recover its value as time goes by.

Its too early to say that.As of now, we cannot expect it to be happen.But in the long run anything may happen. If the altcoin is more useful than bitcoin and has good features then it may take over bitcoin. But it cannot happen now itself.This takes a lot of time.

it wouldn't be impossible in the first place since everything about investments and currency values revolves in supply and demand and if ever bitcoin is surpassed by other cryptocurrencies ( which more likely happens maybe more than 2020's ) then it will just create the same cycle again.

I think it is not possible for some altcoin to overcome Bitcoin. All of the altcoins are Bitcoin based. I mean, look at the exchange sites, how can you buy an altcoin? Of course through Bitcoin (and some via Ethereum). Aside from that, Bitcoin is the one who started it all. Therefore, it is the mther of all coins. And lastly, it is the only coin with unknown developers. We inly know its developer by the name of Satoshi Nakamoto.
Yes I agree it's impossible for other altcoin to overcome Bitcoin. It's like a tree, Bitcoin is the root and the altcoins are the branches. Without the root the tree will die. It is not like that. There is no rocket science behind this fact that bitcoin is only famous just of having big profit ratios. As now, if another coin with more profit ratio would be developed, believe me there is nothing about bitcoins would be remained on news. It is just matter of money and profits whosoever can make more that will be the king. No i don't think that is true if an alter coin will surpass bitcoin i would be the number 1 i personally do think that that will happen i am actually almost sure which coin will surpass it but i am not sure how long it is going to take.

Not impossible but unlikely. Maybe only in case that some major flaw is found in bitcoin which is not present in future x coin and therefore people migrate to it to protext their investments. What will i do? No idea at the moment tbh.

Big No. No other cryptocurrency in the market will surpass bitcoin price even the promising one, at least not in short time. Just my two cents.

I prefer to the more "valuable" coin. If altcoin surpasses the value of BTC i will preferring to leave a worthless bitcoin because the "valuable" coin is more benefit we can get from trading it.

If this things happen that altcoins will surpass bitcoin its value,will my sympathy is still in bitcoin because whatever happens all altcoins when you exchange or trade it and turn to fiat currency it will pass through back in bitcoin,we cannot exchange etherium or any other altcoins into fiat, we must trade it into bitcoin beford become fiat money.

It will be just fine for me if ever that thing you have stated really happen that alternate cryptocurrencies or altcoins will surpass bitcoin. Actually it will be just fine if the altcoins will excel their prices so that we can be able to have lots of big holdings from the campaigns or investments we have that includes altcoin usage. I will still hold into my bitcoin whenever that thing happen because I still do believe of bitcoin's capability to make its price rate grow much larger together with the other coins so that we can have a good and comfortable life.

The price of bitcoin is still very high. But it still possible that altcoins can surpass the price of bitcoin. The price of bitcoin is still fluctuating and this is a sign that it is alive and a lot of users still demand for it. Altcoins today are still being horde because the prices of these altcoins are also fluctuating. One good altcoin is Ethereum, yes the price is still fluctuating due to its demand but i still think bitcoin will also have a higher value if the price is still rising. I would like to invest in those altcoins if they surpass bitcoin.

Though it is possible that one of these days or maybe years after bitcoin will be surpasses by other altcoin but maybe not for a long term cause when people heard about cryptocurrencies in the web, bitcoin will be the first altcoin that comes into their mind since it is really popular, and to tell you bitcoins price is still increasing. And if times comes that bitcoin will be surpasses by other altcoin maybe i would also invest, but it doesnt mean that im going to leave bitcoin because i stiĺl want to hold bitcoin.

I can't see that scenario happening in near future at all. Currently bitcoin is a very strong flagship of crypto and i can't imagine alt surpassed bitcoin. If we are talking about 10 years later maybe it can happen as bitcoin tech will be outdated.

Been wondering this too. Could automatically make Bitcoin an Alternative-Coin (Altcoin)? Or Bitcoin could continue to maintain its lead? But hey, it isn't going to be easy for any Altcoin to dethrone Bitcoin. Few months ago I thought Ethereum could beat Bitcoin to become the no 1 crypto, strangely its price remains at N300 while Bitcoin suddenly started flying high after successful upgrades & resisting attacks

Instead of another coin surpassing Bitcoin, I think the flip will only happen if there is a significant flaw found in Bitcoin's code, or if some other catastrophe like a malevolent entity obtains 51% hashing power and controls the network. Bitcoin won't be dethroned, it will have to fail on its own for something else to overtake it. Its network effect is too great at this point.

What will you do if some altcoin (XMR or ETH for example surpasses the value of BTC, either in market cap or by the price of a token each? Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin, or continue using and holding BTC? Also, what do you think are the chances that it could happen? I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions.
The only currency that can surpass the value of btc is eth. Its becoming quite popular. Quick transaction times and low fees is another plus plus point of eth over btc. yes I agree with you,only ETH is able to compete with BTC, but it takes a long time, because the price of ETH is very far from BTC. but we don't know what will happen in the future, it could be BTC replaced by ETH or not.

In my own opinion, the case where altcoins like ETH surpassing the BTC in terms of value is POSSIBLE but not PROBABLE. I mean, it is really possible that it will happen, but the probability is less than 1%, I think. Bitcoin was the first cryptocurrency in the world, and it is hard for people to just leave bitcoin and transfer their money to other altoins (I mean, why should I choose those new cryptos and leave the TRUSTED, TRIED, and TESTED). What will you do if some altcoin (XMR or ETH for example surpasses the value of BTC, either in market cap or by the price of a token each? Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin, or continue using and holding BTC?
If ever any altcoins surpasses BTC in terms of its value and market cap, then I would still hold on my BTC. Why will I buy these altcoins AFTER surpassing BTC? That will be an unwise decision. The thing here is that we should buy the cheaper altcoins/tokens and wait for their values to rise up, not to buy altcoins/tokens with high value.

The only coin that is near bitcoin value is ethereum coins and i think that this eth coins do really have a future in the world of cryptocurrency, I see in the past few years how the value of this coins decrease and still recovers today. Now the value of eth coins is $355.

I can't see that scenario happening in near future at all. Currently bitcoin is a very strong flagship of crypto and i can't imagine alt surpassed bitcoin. If we are talking about 10 years later maybe it can happen as bitcoin tech will be outdated. I can't see Aldo that other altcoin will surpass bitcoins value since its value is tripled or quadruple higher than other altcoins. Well maybe I shouldn't under estimate the potential of other altcoins but for I didn't see any altcoins would either tie or surpass butcoin, none of them.

very difficult to compete with bitcoin. I think there is no allcoin that can match the current bitcoin. but a lot of allcoin can make me rich in an instant. depending on the luck and coins I take as an investment.
I think yes its difficult to other altcoin to compete with bitcoin. I guess this thing isn't that puzzle to anyone here who knows the current value of bitcoin and so other altcoins. I didn't see any kind of altcoin would surpass bitcoin but if it so I didn't know, maybe I will be surprised also. But then every altcoin have their own potential in their own way.

That is something that could happen in the future, but I think it wont happen anytime soon, but the probability is there. Cryptocurrencies are just so unpredictable that even their creators are being surprised about the outcome of their project, some are being disappointed and some are speechless because they never thought that it would go as far as it got.

It can happen and I believe it was. This is easily achieve with very low supply coin. So, it is not a big deal to have a coin surpasses BTC value, the important thing is trading volume.

ETH and LTC have a potential to surpass bitcoin but it's hard to say it will be happening soon because most of the people want to stick with bitcoin when it's doing their job nicely.

Been wondering this too. Could automatically make Bitcoin an Alternative-Coin (Altcoin)? Or Bitcoin could continue to maintain its lead? But hey, it isn't going to be easy for any Altcoin to dethrone Bitcoin. Few months ago I thought Ethereum could beat Bitcoin to become the no 1 crypto, strangely its price remains at N300 while Bitcoin suddenly started flying high after successful upgrades & resisting attacks
I also came to this curiosity of mine that I also asked to myself what if other altcoins surpasses bitcoin? Would it be possible? Well I guess it maybe yes and no,yes because we couldn't tell what will gonna happen next to digital currency world, who would've thought right? It's no because I believe in the superiority of bitcoin over other altcoin so whatever may happen let's all be prepared.

maybe if another alternative coins surpasses the bitcoin in terms of value then it is time to the bitcoin it can reached it limit all we to say was a good of bitcoin. if the time has come then accept it don't push it if it is a fate. yes if the bitcoin was gone and surpasses by other alternative coins it is really that it have changes because they need to adjust that the preloved bitcoin was gone. but i think the value it is not enough to determine what are the good coins it is. because it is a digital currency and we know the main used of digital as a money online and it is need to become a faster in terms of transaction

Users have quoted different altcoins having the growth to surpass the value of bitcoin. If we go through the list one can understand the difference between the particular altcoin and bitcoin. Reaching the value of bitcoin is not that simple and if some altcoin makes it, then bitcoin will lose its importance.

I dont think that is possible, some other cryptocurrency would beat the price of bitcoin now? That is gonna be hard to do, if its gonna happen, then that cryptocurrency is gonna be the talk of the whole cryptoworld and everyone is gonna buy and hold on that coin, but I think Bitcoin won't disappear.

If that happens then I will continue holding on bitcoin because I kept my trust and faith in the rise of bitcoin because it have proven time and time again that it is here to stay and it is here to be one of the future currency in the world today. And chances of that happening is most likely slight because again if you compare the popularity of bitcoin among other alternative coins they vary differently.

I think no one can replace in bitcoin because as far as now the value of bitcoin is continiously increasing and becamed more popular day by day so thats why some people investing in bitcoin it caused to bitcoin become more sttronger.

At this current status of bitcoin its not possible as we know its the number 1 and trusted crypto of users. We dont know whats in the future but i think if theres a coin that can surpass it the next in line would be eth. If that happens i wont sell my btc and will continue to support it but ill try to invest in the new one who surpassed it.

I don't really think that any altcoin can surpass the value of bitcoin now. Not even half of the value of bitcoin any altcoin reached it. But there are possibilities that it will be gone if you are reading history. If history will repeat like what happen in 16th century, about the tulipomania. Where everyone in Holland began to collect tulip bulb and everyone selling it in high price. I hope BTC price up not just a mania. But I watched some videos that it will reach 50,000$ early next year. Let us just hope it will and will not crash.

Currently, I'd say it's not possible for any altcoin to overthrow bitcoin as the king of cryptocurrencies because of the market value of bitcoin. Considering the chart, the value of bitcoin is about 8200 usd while the value of the closest competitor, which is eth, is just 376 usd. Looking at the difference in the value, we realize that it will take years of development on the part of these altcoins to overthrow bitcoin. But if it does happen, as there nothing that's impossible, I will convert some of my bitcoins to the altcoin and make some investments with it.

Anything is possible but Bitcoin currently enjoys a 10X price premium versus its closest competitor. Another coin, such as ETH could potentially overtake in in market-cap one day, but I still think that would be a few years off. Myself, I hold BTC as well as many of the popular alts, so I would probably continue to hold a variety of promising coins including BTC if it were to ever become dethroned.
ETH will likely be the one that over takes BTC in the marketcap. But that doesn't mean that ETH is actually being used for buying/selling goods and services. Many things on the ETH chain are for ICOs and people who raise money through ICOs get paid in ETH when they fundraise for it. This will see the balance of ETH going into programming teams/developers/businesses and other stuff like that. It may actually create a scenario where in years from now most normal people don't have any balance of ETh because it is too much money. Similar to what would happen to BTC eventually. people sell out of their BTC at a certain point. If BTC is 1 million USD yeah I am selling out of it, taking that 1 million USD and investing in other things and other coins that can go to the moon.

Impossible. Every other alt-coin is a substitute to BTC. Everything with BTC right now is well established and there's no possible chance that a newer coin will ever top BTC. It's the foundation.

I don't see how this could happen, at least not in the near future. There are some altcoins with good perspective and the value that has chances to rise more but none of them will come close to bitcoin value. For this to happen some other preconditions besides pure price should be filled and that is not that easy and can't happen over night. No other altcoin has the chance unless something really, really bad happens to bitcoin.

Bitcoin Cash has the ability to surpass the value of Bitcoin and I think that it's a only a matter of time before it can really overtake bitcoins but I surmise that it's going to take a number of years before that happens. A lot of people are going to flock towards it since it will give them more profits.

I will continue holding bitcoin because if it will happen bitcoin's price will just decrease but it can't be erase from the market. It will decrease because maybe some people will choose other cryptos and its demand will also decrease.

I don't see any altcoin that can surpass the bitcoin's value. It is called altcoins derived from Alternative Coins so it must be an option for whom that cannot afford buying bitcoin and other high valued cryptocurrency. Altcoins is for those who wants to start with low capitals and earn from it to afford higher valued coins like what i've mention such as bitcoin , Ethereum etc.

Back then I used to believe that some other crypto currency will replace Bitcoin like Ethereum but from what I've observe through years Bitcoin is still remains the "mother of all crypto currency" the stockmarket etc still revolves around it. I believe that if some crypto currency perhaps ETH will surpass BTC I believe that BTC will catch up to that coin so my answer is No I wont sell my BTC to buy more "valuable" coin. Also the chances of this question going to happen is kinda low but possible through the years...

Ethereum is already at half of bitcoin's market cap so I don't see it far from happening. Actually once an alt gets near bitcoin's market cap chaos will be all over crypto world.. Just imagine all the FUD here, in the news, around the internet and everywhere!! Panic sellers, panic buyers, bitcoin will lose a lot of its value while that coin gets it on the other hand.. So prepare for the time that day comes, and buy that alt before it beats bitcoin and sell after. At the end it will probably be a bump and dump situation like we saw recently with xrp.

Almost every coin, which at a cost will exceed bitcoin, will also have the signs of a financial bubble, since a crypto currency can not have such a high value in our world. This is not realistic. That is, investing in such coins will be very risky. On the other hand, not every coin of great value has a good opportunity to make a profit. It may already be at the limit of its price opportunity. Therefore, in most cases, small new coins give good profits, which are just beginning to reveal their potential.

Bitcoin is dominating cryptocurrency market since its introduction. Following bitcoin`s path many altcoins get introduced. But bitcoin kept its dominance and popularity intact. Bitcoin has travelled from $1000 to $19000 in less than two years. Bitcoins increased value, increased transactions charges, volatility, its use in illegal activities, and ban by many countries creating a wave of worry among bitcoin investors. As a result many investors by booking their profits shifting their investments. Altcoins are the best options for them, altcoins are relatively cheap, less volatile in nature. In future these altcoins may surpasses bitcoin currency.

I would trade half of my bitcoin supply and then buy some of thay expensive alt coin. I'd like to make as much profits from alt coins other than bitcoins. If that alt coin sky rockets in price after I trade, I would eventually sell it and go back to bitcoins. I think the chances of it happening in 2018 is very high. A lot of alt coins released last 2017 has a ton of potential. They can surpass bitcoins easily with the right amount of support snd investors.

I will not surprise if this will happen in decades. There is a possibility that another altcoin can surpass value of BTC if this will happen: 1. If the present problems of bitcoin will not be solved. The problems of bitcoins greatly affect the price of it. Many are switching into another coin. 2. If the community behind bitcoin is the same as the community of the altcoin. Since bitcoin is the first ever cryptocurrency, many trusted this coin already. If this will happen to an altcoin, there is a chance that it will surpass its value. If another altcoin will surpass BTC in value, to be honest I don't know what to say. If this will happen then bitcoin will plummet, many will sell their bitcoin and then switch into that altcoin.

I believe that that is bound to happen maybe not now or not in the nearest future but it will really happen. Which alts will get the spot, that is also still a mystery because there's plenty of new altcoins that are surfacing and one of them can have great potentials that can contend btc. For me, as long as btc proves to be a good investment and I'm still earning from it I will still keep my coins despite of it being dethroned by other promising alts. By that time I think I've earned enough to buy those alts so there's no need to trade my btc holdings.

What will you do if some altcoin (XMR or ETH for example surpasses the value of BTC, either in market cap or by the price of a token each? Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin, or continue using and holding BTC? Also, what do you think are the chances that it could happen? I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions.
the possibility is always there, and I think that other alcoint may exceed the value of bitcoin, but this will not happen in the near term, because we all know that other alcoint prices are so far away with bitcoin prices, even the price of ethereum is still very far behind if compared with bitcoin prices. If this happens, I will consider whether bitcoin still has good potential or not, if in case the bitcoin continues to decline and loses by another alcoint, then I will sell bitcoin and buy a new coin that has good value.

That could actually happen in my opinion. And i see ETH or NEO being able to do that. Maybe in 2 years. Who knows. Nothing is permanent in this world. Even Bitcoin being on the highest rank.

The decision to keep or not keep the crypto currency depends on many factors. That's where in the ranking is it is not the most important factor. If we are talking about the cost of bitcoin, that is (or were) coins more expensive bitcoin.

Anything can happen anytime and anywhere but no coins have value to exceed bitcoin. Maybe it will happen in the future because no one can predict any future and the altcoin market is so unstable today. Until now there are no coins that can exceed the expectations of bitcoin under any circumstances.

If this happens, of course, investors will divert their investment into altcoin and of course bitcoin will be left behind But the possibility of bitcoin replacement is very small, ETH although I do not think I can beat bitcoin Because here what is needed is trust, and bitcoin has it

On a long enough timeline, the chances are close to 100% that some new altcoin or system is going to surpass Bitcoin in value.
There is not much you can do about it, other than speculate and try to be one of the first to invest in a new coin.

Well, if there's one coin that probably can surpasses bitcoin it could be ETH. ETH now is becoming more popular and widely use as platform for most ICO that coming in the market but I think it could take some time. By the way this coin surpasses bitcoin's value check it out: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/42-coin/

Even now there are present some potentially good altcoin and still people even trusting there to invest their money, but i think still it is not so easy, because the if we compare any of the altcoin with bitcoin, bitcoin value is increasing more from time to time. in fact bitcoin users are increasing more than any other currency and upto so one this will continue i do not think that any other altcoin have chance to overcome bitcoin. Bitcoin will remain as the kind for a long long time.

That's not possible. Altcoin relies on bitcoin and it is the universal medium for fiat and altcoins. It represents crypto so if any altcoin rises, bitcoin 's price is already far from them so they can't surpass it.

Actually, this is not impossible to happen since it is in nature of cryptocurrencies to be volatile and surpass the value of one another. I believe that every movement and changes of each and every cryptos affect one another. This is why for any altcoin to surpass bitcoin is really possible and could happen if bitcoin's value continue to drop down.

If that would miraculously happen and takeover bitcoin in such a surprising way. Then I think that a lot would jumpship and have to go to that altcoin which would then have an effect in its value more and would increase uniil it becomses inflated that it gets to the point where new people cannot invest into it anymore because of how high it is and then they would experience what bitcoin did with its dips and forks

It is not likely to happen that the altcoin will beat the performance and the market value of bitcoin in the world trade market. All altcoins that are operating too long in the market cannot beat bitcoin, how come the new ones can easily defeat them.

Getting ETH to pass bitcoin is a very difficult thing. Bitcoin is used in many different areas, because it carries in its own blockchain technology. This has made bitcoin different from other altcoins and is more user-friendly than other altcoins. So, I'll keep holding the bitcoin until they come back up. I believe in bitcoin. that is my life.

in my opinion the possibilities are very far away,because in terms of price BTC has a high price compared to other altcoin. takes a long time to compete with BTC.
I wouldn't be that confident like your because as I look last year eth is only less than a dollar but it soar up to $1500 in just a year. And currently the price of bitcoin is equivalent to 10x of ethereum meaning ethereum could match bitcoin in the near future because it will have more demand because of its function and uses.

I do not see this happening anytime soon. Bitcoin is what everybody thinks when they hear cryptocurrency. The name was barely even scratching the surface of educating the public. To overtake Bitcoin you have to remove all the progress made by saying Bitcoin is the future and that altcoin can serve other purposes. If altcoin exceeds Bitcoin, perhaps the whole market is in a lot of trouble.

Anything is possible but Bitcoin currently enjoys a 10X price premium versus its closest competitor. Another coin, such as ETH could potentially overtake in in market-cap one day, but I still think that would be a few years off. Myself, I hold BTC as well as many of the popular alts, so I would probably continue to hold a variety of promising coins including BTC if it were to ever become dethroned.
everything is possible but at this moment eventhough bitcoim has a big dip at this moment, it very unlikely to happen. bitcoin still enjoys being the number one cryptocurrency. the value is too high for some altcoin at this moment to surpass bitcoin.

In fact, from time to time there are coins that cost more bitkoin, as a rule their number is small or this speculative price is artificial. It is possible that over time some coins will overtake BTC at a price, but is it an excuse to immediately throw the BTC and buy other coins? I count so if the coin has already grown, why buy it on the top? In the crypto currency the surest way to earn looks like this - you study an interesting start-up, look at the price of coins, take them at a low price, lodge on a purse and forget for two or three years. Quite possibly among your investments will be projects that overtake bitcoin at a price))

that is not possible, because the first coin bitcoin is in cryptocurrency and no 1 in cryptocurrency. If that happens maybe the coin ETH (ethereum) will replace bitcoin because ETH (ethereum) coin no 2 in cryptocurrency.

I dont think if that will be happening. Not even ethereum. Bitcoin is crypto, crypto is bitcoin. Without bitcoin, crypto will never exist. And bitcoin is the only coin that has been tested for years and still survive while other coins or even tokens are not even tested yet. Even many tokes have faulty smart contract. Even though there are many coins created, bitcoin will still be the majority in market cap

It can't happen since BTC is here from the beginning, or maybe in a few decades so it's easy to see it coming.
Everybody here on this forum has this opinion. This is an established fact because bitcoin investment has always proved to be lucrative and fetched the best results!! Bitcoin was in its golden era last year and not only the last year, but it has remained the king of the crypto world from a very long time. So I also hold the same opinion that no other crypto coin has that potential as bitcoin has. And right now I don't see any other alt coin replacing the bitcoin. Because bitcoin has set such a benchmark that is not easy to be touched!!

It could happen if money from btc is moved to another altcoin and the marketcap will show this development which means bitcoin will be displaced from its number one spot but having being on the market the longest I would want to see bitcoin go all the way as the king.

It is very unlikely to happen, just because of the fact that bitcoin is the first of the cryptos and any further ones are just shitcoins/copies of bitcoin outright. There is no one any of them possesses more value than bitcoin will, but there is always an uncertainty, as this is human nature afterall that determines the value of these cryptos, and well, its pretty unlikely, as I said, but the tables might just turn at any moment, there is really no way of predicting other than keeping an eye out on the news.

Until recently, it seemed that nothing would disturb the position of Bitcoin on the cryptocurrency market. On the other hand, technological development forces the application of better and better solutions, ensuring both speed, convenience and safety. Ethereum is still missing a lot to break the dominance of Bitcoin, while much more modern solutions and the pace of development bring this possibility more and more.

Altcoins surpassing bitcoins is really possible because there are a lot of new coins that keeps on coming in the market each day and some of them are really showing the potential to grow just like ethereum who already reached $1k dollar last month and it is one of the coin that has potential to surpass bitcoins.

It is possible but I don't think it will happen since Bitcoin is the most popular and the most common crypto currency in the world. There is also that Bitcoin has a greater value than other digital currencies, well it is the first digital currency. ETH is great reaching a 4-digit price just after almost 3 years but I don't think that it will be as popular if there will be no Bitcoin circulating.

From what I have observed overtime, I don't see any coin surpassing Bitcoin with respect to its price value! Bitcoin has set a mark as the first Cryptocurrency coin and also first to hit close to 20k$! Its present down toll is also having a major effect on other coins and the Cryptocurrency market at large. So, before any coin can surpass the bitcoin price, it can be for years though.

While in the near future there can not be such that any coin overtakes bitcoin by capitalization or by value. Bitcoin is still inaccessible for any coins. Therefore, in this plan, he has nothing to fear. In addition, given the planned improvements in bitcoin, it is expected that its popularity will soon be in line with the leader of the crypto currency, and then all these assumptions will be given by themselves.

This is very impossible for now that some altcoins surpass the value of bitcoin because bitcoin is the first and the most crytocurrency throughout the whole world. For example eth altcoin is always the second place of crytocurrency and not yet happen in the history that it surpass bitcoin value since from the beginning of crypto world. But if this will happen then this is our great oppurtunity at least we have an option to where to put our investment to be more profitable someday.

There is a possibility but not too soon because bitcoin is the father of crypto currencies and the value is like 10x with the other currencies. There are a lot of people believe in bitcoin with all of them bitcoin will still be the #1 crypto in the world. Bitcoin is here for many years this will still be the highest form of crypto.

People should stop focus on the value of an altcoin or their market caps. Altcoins enjoy no actual usage other than the speculative aspect, and that's something people here don't seem to think about. There have already been altcoins with a higher unit value than Bitcoin, and there have been several altcoins with a higher market cap than Bitcoin ~ it's absolutely meaningless.

It will take a decade or several decades to surpass Bitcoin, which has a market value of US$134 billion. An Altcoin cannot transcend Bitcoin in a short time. It seems too difficult.

I think that Ethereum may surpass Bitcoin. The current market capitalization of Bitcoin is 138.2 billion U.S. dollars, and the market value of Ethereum is 50.9 billion U.S. dollars. ETH is now the only coin that has potential beyond bitcoin.

Will you sell your BTC to buy the more "valuable" coin, or continue using and holding BTC? Also, what do you think are the chances that it could happen? I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions.
I'd probably do that. I'd sell my bitcoins for that more profitable coin until the price of bitcoins go down so cheap, then I'd start to buy bitcoins again when it is in its cheapest. After that, I'll hodl everything and wait for the best time to sell my collection of coins.

When Bitcoin prices starts falling, every single altcoin starts doing the same thing, so i really don't see this happening! If Bitcoins dies, the whole crypto space will die with it.

chances are it's possible but it's difficult and it might take a long time for another coin for a higher price with bitcoin, I personally will not sell my bitcoin because I'm sure in the future the bitcoin price will be high.

In my opinion,it's not always about price,it's about value and technology and if you believe in that technology I have loved bitcoin from day 1 that I discovered it's existence and even if other alts eventually surpasses it (which I think is highly unlikely anyways),I would keep holding my Bitcoin.

I'd probably switch to that coin because I want to make as much profit. When the price of bitcoins crashes hard however, I'd secretly buy some bitcoins so in case the price of bitcoins splashes back to $20,000 or higher, then I'd sell hard everything I bought when the crash occurred.

I think that Ethereum may surpass Bitcoin. The current market capitalization of Bitcoin is 138.2 billion U.S. dollars, and the market value of Ethereum is 50.9 billion U.S. dollars. ETH is now the only coin that has potential beyond bitcoin.
almost all or all Ethereum users are bitcoin users you know, because they think Ethereum is also a alternative investment that profitable, that's why Ethereum marketcap is huge because it has great potential in the future, so most bitcoin users have a backup investment in Ethereum, but I don't think that ETH could take over bitcoin position

I think all coins have their own characteristics and have weaknesses and advantages in each of its coins if the price of the coin you are referring to it increases rather than bitcoin of course I will stick with bitcoin because we know the excess bitcoin is very much

Chances are always there no doubt about it, because still a lot of altcoins are there who have very good potential and even people are also taking too much interest to invest money in such altcoin, but i think that it is not easy so early, because still most of the people interest is in bitcoin and still they are welling to invest their money in bitcoin and ensure a good profit from there. Therefore in current time there are very few chances that another crypto currency will surpasses bitcoin value.

I do not think this will happen. Maybe my assumption is too selfish, but I think Bitcoin will still have the highest value in the market cap. Until now no one has been able to beat the price of Bitcoin, but always appear altcoin-altcoin new aims to beat the price of Bitcoin. I think Bitcoin is created with the most advanced technology that is difficult to conquer by other coins.

I think it's not easy to surpass bitcoin although we can't say that no other crypto will, because in crypto world there are many competitors aiming to be the highest value of crypto. So if there are so many cryptocurrency then it would be hard to surpass bitcoin because the popularity is devide.

it is impossible, other altcoin can rival the price of btc, I think other alcoin can not develop coins like btc because btc price is very expensive other coins will not be able to balance the price with btc.

There are a lot of implications actually but if the value surpasses bitcoin, then it would replace bitcoin as the reigning cryptocurrency in the market. There are a lot of factors to consider especially if an altcoin surpasses bitcoin in value. If in the price graph it showed tremendous skyrocketing of its price, then people would prefer that altcoin compared to others, thus increasing its demand and supply in the market. Basically, what will happen to that altcoin will be the thing that is HAPPENING CURRENTLY into bitcoin. A lot of professional market/trader analysts would discuss and give their opinions, banks would shift their focus into that altcoin and governments would see it again as a boon or a bane towards the economy. I think it's not easy to surpass bitcoin although we can't say that no other crypto will, because in crypto world there are many competitors aiming to be the highest value of crypto. So if there are so many cryptocurrency then it would be hard to surpass bitcoin because the popularity is devide.
Typically, the price of bitcoin is directly proportional to the price of altcoins. So when the price of bitcoin increases expect the prices of altcoin to increase most of the time. Though sometimes there are occurrences where the price of an altcoin increases while the price of bitcoin decreasing. But you are right that it would be difficult for some altcoins to catch-up with bitcoin in terms of its price.

I think it will not going to happen because we all knew that bitcoin is the first digital currency and many people support it. If any altcoin surpasses bitcoin,I think the features are more developed, but it requires more years to happen, and I think it will never happen. Bitcoin will be still in the highest value of all time.

I think that will never happen. Bitcoin is the first crypto and the founder of all cryptos. It is the mother of all cryptos and no altcoins can surprass or beat the btc. Btc will always be number one in the term of price and it's development. Whether the technology development or some other developments. Some people actually said that the eth can suprass btc because the their devs want to develop the eth protocol. It will become new, but I think that will never happen. I always believe in btc and the price of btc will indeed always going up and increase. There are also people who said that btc is just the beginning of the new era and it will replace by something bigger and better, I do not know about that.

I think there are pros and cons If this happens.
Altcoins won't rely as much on BTC price if that happens, there will be shift. Price Volatility will be more unpredictable among Altcoin's and It is already a wild west It will turn even more extreme. It will also depend if the new King is strong like Bitcoin and maintains its no.1 position. but geez of a there a bunch of coins taking and fighting for that number 1 position the volatility is going to turn on its head.
People don't realize It is actually a good thing that BTC maintain's its strenght at the very top. But off course no one can say intially there is going to be extreme volatility if other alt coins start surpass bitcoin but then like everything else the market will try to adjust to this new scenario I really can't say if It would be good or bad. Would love to hear other people's thoughts

First of all, I don't think this is a possibility. Bitcoin, as a pioneer, has a more complete system. It wants to surpass it as a reform. If there is a currency that can surpass it, I believe the industry will More powerful.

I think that no other altcoin surpasses BTC in value since BTC is the first cryptocurrency exist. If there will be chances of the existence of another altcoin, then I guess they can't still surpass BTC.

Bitcoin is what everyone thinks of when they hear crypto currency. The name has barely even scratched the surface of educating the public. To overtake Bitcoin you would have to erase all the progress made on saying Bitcoin is the future and that altcoins can serve other purposes. If an altcoin surpasses Bitcoin I would expect the overall market to be in alot of trouble. Another coin, such as ETH could potentially overtake in in market-cap one day, but I still think that would be a few years off. Myself, I hold BTC as well as many of the popular alts, so I would probably continue to hold a variety of promising coins including BTC if it were to ever become dethroned.

If another altcoin surpasses bitcoin in value I think bitcoin can also surpasses it. Even if another altcoin surpasses bitcoin I will still be working on it because for me no other cryptocurrency is better than bitcoin. We all know that if they hear cryptocurrency the first think comes to their mind is bitcoin because it is the father of all cryptocurrency.

What if? Evolution happens. Bitcoin was the first one, it is pioneer and it is still very popular, widely adopted. But it has its use case and some other alts have other use cases that may be of more value to the world, and to the ecosystem. Prices are reflective of the network value. If another altoin surpasses Bitcoin, it would only mean that it has more value and nothing else. Does not mean that Bitcoin is not valuable anymore. It will still be widely used.
