no i did not agree with you, well we do not have the same information yes but in my opinion why bitcoin is more famous than other is because what you were talking is altcoin while bitcoin is one of the foundation of crypto currencies.

Litecoin is faster, monero is more private, ETH has smart contracts and there is much more altcoin with much more features, even Bitcoin Cash is faster than Bitcoin, but BTC keeps rising much faster.
Don't you think it's just because of the name?
Probably because Bitcoin has pioneered quite a while, so the increase is faster than other coins. Indeed, the development of other coins is also fast but I'm sure Bitcoin will not be replaced and still in trust by the crowd.

Im not thinking like that because bitcoin is not a name or a brand bitcoin is a great source of income that helps many people around the world, if bitcoin is a brand why that bitcoin is very popular and many people are still crazy and many people not are welling to use bitcoin.in fact bitoin is valuable and not just a brand only.

Bitcoin is not just a brand you will see that if you check its price, its rank in all cryptocurrencies. Highest Market Cap, price and volume everyday what more if we reach the 21m supply?. Bitcoin is the foundation of every cryptocurrencies, some crypto are created in the likes of Bitcoin.

not just the name, bitcoin is the ORIGINAL one crypto-currency. meaning the majority is relying on bitcoin as the main crypto-currency. even there are more altcoins exist which has a better features than bitcoin, bitcoin more valued among them because of popularity and demand on some other country that slowly adopting crypto.

I think bitcoin has the connection to other crypto currency. I think bitcoin is the foundation of other crypro is because bitcoin is the one who first created crypto currency and so the other cypto currency create. Bitcoin is really not absolute and that  is not because of the name. It is to encourage the investor to invest so bitcoin is not absolute.

I think a huge part of their success is the brand and the fact they were first. No other coin has the security of bitcoin so that is definitely a factor in its success. Its also looked on as a store of value unlike other coins. I do think if and when lightning network gets up and running transaction fees and times will make bitcoin a way better means of day to day transactions

It's not just because the brand value but the potential of growth, development and current volume which is making Bitcoin popular day by day. It is possible that any other coin can take less time to confirm but it is also possible that coin can not sustain for the long term so not only the speed and fee matters but we should also consider sustainability aspect while analyzing coins.

So the question why the diamond is much more valuable and better than gold but they still use Golds as the main thing for trading ? It's not about their advantages , it's about how regular you're using it.

BItcoin is a technological advancement and a tool. It is not just some brand that does business to make money.

More than a brand... A brand per se does not grow in value... The bitcoin has seen tremendous value increase and has impacted the way we live either directly or indirectly.... There are many things the crypto world (more than bitcoin) has brought to date.....

I do not know any about programming, though I understand the concept of cryptocurrency. It is true that there are a lot of coins whose much faster transacting than Bitcoin, yet Bitcoin still the number 1. How could we compare that if their community is way much lesser than Bitcoin, right? Only we can compare BCH, Monero, and LTC to BTC is when their price and the circulating supply is close enough to Bitcoin, that is when we can see if they can still be that faster. And I doubt it.

Don't you think it's just because of the name?
My answer about that is when you asked people about crypto the first thing that comes in their mind is bitcoin because bitcoin is the first digital coin have been created and aside of that it has a strong support of community that is why many investors interested to invest their money in bitcoin so the value is always higher than the other crypto currencies.

Bitcoin is the foundation of every cryptocurrencies, some crypto are created in the likes of Bitcoin.

Bitcoin was the foundation of crypto, which in current times isn't really valid anymore. We're at a point already where if Bitcoin for whatever reason can't deliver anymore, or for example vanishes entirely, the current top altcoins will take over and steer this market to the next level. Sure, Bitcoin's absence will be felt initially, but this market doesn't depend on just Bitcoin anymore, that's the reality. It just shows how this entire industry has evolved to the next level, and it shows how resistant it is if one aspect of this industry can't deliver anymore. In other words, crypto in its entirety is unstoppable.

I do not think Bitcoin is just a band.This the best source and dependable for the future.It's just virtual currency in the market. It is considered as a gold standard for the exchange of cryptocurrency.And can be transferred to local currencies.

As a cryptocurrency, bitcoin is certainly a well established brand with a good (and bad) history, you can compare it to any giant world corporation, however if you still go on to discuss bitcoin as a parto of the blockchain network, then we will open such aspects as: community, payment systems, ico's, etc. This can no longer be regarded as a separate product, it is not something standing alone, but only part of one large network.

I don't think it's just the name but the things that Bitcoin has accomplished and proved. For how many years Bitcoin has been facing all its no believers and bashers but still proved them wrong. With all the lives it has changed, its value is still increasing every year, it earned and gained the trust of people because they had experience the fruits of their trust and belief in Bitcoin. So even if there are a lot of other coins out there, claiming they are better, faster and all the things more than Bitcoin, it has to be more that words and some hype, we need real life stories, prove your worth first and maybe then one of you may take over the place of the King.

To the new comers attracted by bitcoin price surges over the years, bitcoin might be a brand. It is actually not, Bitcoin is money that is not controlled by any governments.
